    Good mouse with the option to connect through a usb dongle or Bluetooth, which is why I bought it. It works great for the most part but minor issues staying connected to my Mac book through Bluetooth. Not sure if it’s the mouse or the Mac having issues but still works pretty great

    I have purchased steelseries products before such as a keyboard and headset and I have never been disappointed. It is an affordable option for a beginner style gaming mouse. It’s not meant to be the best mouse you can buy but it is definitely a great deal.

    Light weight, 2 triple A’s usb dongle is tiny and doesn’t stick out so that’s a plus and goes into mouse for portability when you need to use it somewhere else

    Mouse gets the job done. Easy to switch in between Bluetooth and optical connectivity. Great latency with fully charged batteries. However like most wireless, you do tend to see a dip in latency as the batteries life depletes. With that being said, the latency with a third of the battery is still tolerable enough to not effect me while playing FPS. I would recommend this product. 4/5.

    Mouse feels good and is very responsive but ultimately it kills batteries way too fast to be used. I reached out to steel series and they replaced it but the new unit did the same thing. This is with the mouse set on power saving mode.

    Best mouse I’ve ever had. VERY precise for my needs. I like the simplicity, not overly fancy. Best of all, it fits my hand just perfect. Being left handed, I need a symetrical mouth for use with either hand by others or myself.

    I would recommend this to a friend
