    Broke within a few months. Would not recommend. I went "cheap" and will end paying twice. Opt for a higher end gaming mouse IMO.

    You'll hate it. When you're looking for a general use of a gaming mouse, you generally want it to be ergonomic for a person to use as well as being light. You'd just be better off getting a g203 or a viper mini.

    Terrible, it worked for about a week and then it would not connect no matter what I did. I uninstalled and reinstalled the software multiple times and nothing changed I even re-installed all of my computer's drivers thinking that could be the issue but nothing happened. I bought batteries for it countless times but nothing I was doing was working.

    The mouse worked great and I had no complaints until it started randomly disconnecting. Then Id get pop ups saying that the USB device is not recognized. Ive tried troubleshooting including factory reset etc but no luck. Reached out to Steelseries customer support to see if anything else can be done.
