    Best feeling mouse

    This mouse feels fantastic. It feels high end, it does not feel cheap. The weight on it is on the higher side but it’s smooth and fast. I’ve never felt a more solid mouse than this one. Again it does not feel cheap at all.

    This mouse works very well and looks great. I came in looking for a cheap mouse as this is what I use for my secondary PC. This has exceeded my expectations especially for what I paid for it. The RGB on the logo and around the bottom look great. I am very pleased with this purchase.

    Purchased as a first gaming mouse based on my top 2 requirements: I have small hands and use a Mac. The SteelSeries software is compatible with my computer if I want it, but it also works plug and play. It also fits well in my hand and doesn't feel too big or too small. I've found the number and placement of buttons work well for me, and the build doesn't feel cheesy. I'm a big fan of the scroll wheel and its texture, though you may have to clean it periodically since the rubberized wheel can attract dust. It's not a heavy mouse, so if do you like a heavier feel it may not be for you, but I've been happy with it. The lights are a great bonus even if you don't "need" them for your purposes, and the design is honestly really sharp. It's great value for the money. My only qualm is that I do wish the cord was replaceable, but it is holding up well so far and again, for the price, I think you will be pleased overall.

    I really like Steel mice; this is my 4th one and I have one on my other computer. They are a great size, excellent wait and move smoothly. I like them for the utility...the lights make no difference to me.

    Given it's a cheaper mouse, I decided if it wasn't functioning properly Id just buy another one but I'm surprised at its response time and color control. By downloading the software, you can easily customize the sensitivity and control of the mouse as well as its RGB color shift.

    Best mouse I’ve had to date, lighter and seemingly more precise than my previous HyperX RGB Pulsefire Surge. Even though the Steelseries application does not offer a super in-depth RGB customization option for the mouse, its performance is top tier at a fraction of the cost. If this mouse dies, I will definitely get another of the same, or upgrade to the wireless version

    Super comfortable, lightweight and accurate mouse. Not a large nor a super small mouse, can be annoying and this one is the right size for average sized hands. Have had a SteelSeries Sensei mouse for YEARS, and finally the right click went out. Needed something comparable that was not wireless and this works great. Software has no bloat, use it with or without, but for accurate DPI controls, you need to install the software. LEDs can be customized or turned off all together. Skates are good, if your a hard core FPS gamer, you can easily change the skates out, but as is....the mouse is very smooth and light.

    I got this for my work computer and I love it! I got a keyboard to go with it as well and they both work perfect! It’s so smooth and I like being able to click to change how quickly it reacts to motion.
