Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Rival 5 Wired Optical Gaming Mouse with RGB Lighting for its extensive RGB lighting options, overall performance, and ease of use. Many appreciate the button placement, decent weight, and the value it offers for the price. However, some with larger hands find the mouse slightly small, and a few feel the software could be improved.

    Shame on Best Buy

    Great mouse, deserves a 5* but Best Buy gets a 1* due to it's new reward policy. No longer do you get BB points for purchasing items. You have to use BB credit card now. for points. Oh, and member status? You have to PAY to be a member with real benefits. It used to be based on how much you spent at BB. There IS NO incentive now to buy only from BB. I will only buy online from them if the price is significantly lower (doubtful that will be the case) than Amazon, etc.

    Scroll wheel broke and double/opposite scrolls quite often the fix would be to take apart of the whole thing and I just don't have time nor knowledge to do all that. I usually have used steelseries but this one had a bad scroll wheel and it super annoying to deal with

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
