    Very comfortable and so far I've gotten great battery life. Have yet to change my batteries after a month. Bluetooth functionality is great which the Logitech competitor I was considering did not have. I also like the subtle RGB lighting on the wheel scroll.

    I have a few SteelSeries products. I LOVE my Arctis Nova Pro wireless headset! For $50, you cant beat this value for a wireless mouse! You can customize how the RGB works on the SteelSeries engine on your desk top!

    I don’t know why they call it steel series when it’s 100% plastic, sorta weird. I like how customizable the dps and rgb is but the battery life is horrible, if you forget to turn it off 1-3 times you need to replace the batteries. Not being chargeable is a red flag as well.

    I got this for a great price considering its a Steel Series that's also wireless. I cannot comment on the battery life because I just got it, but the buttons are crisp and the glide is just fine. And since it can be set up for Bluetooth as well as dongle, that may have been the reason for its design in the first place.

    I wanted a basic wireless mouse with some RGB for not too much money. I didn't need a super fancy gaming mouse, just something basic so I didn't have to rely on the laptop's touchpad, and this gets the job done perfectly. Very lightweight and connects super easy.

    Bluetooth is awesome, idk about you, but i love not having to use a extra usb port just for a mouse. The software to customize the LED is ram hungry and I recommend uninstalling after you configure, but bang for buck great purchase

    Considering this mouse is less than $50 you shouldn't expect this to be anything mindblowing but for the money it is a high quality, nice-feeling mouse with decent customization, smoothness, and ergonomics. The battery life on this mouse is as insane as advertised and barely takes a hit on battery capacity with many hours of use on end. The clicking (maybe it's just my opinion) feels very satisfying, particularly for a laptop that is in this price range. As for connectivity I have never ever once felt or experienced any sort of connectivity issues with this mouse.

    My son loves his gaming mouse. No complaints as to quality, ease of use, etc.. Do note, however, if you keep the lights on, it is a battery suck.
