    I'm returning this item because it never showed up in the software to test the buttons. I have an Arctic pro headset and it shows up but never with this mouse.

    The mouse looks good and fits nicely in your hand but thats where things end. It tracks like garbage, always feels like youre running the mouse across sand paper and feels cheap. There are definitely better options out there.
