The mouse maintains a decent weight despite the added buttons and is praised for its responsiveness and reasonable price. Some customers find the size slightly small for larger hands, and a few mention that the software could be improved.

    Been using this mice for almost 2 months and never had any problems with it so for. I play games on a laptop all day and it works great. The speeds on the mouse is really easy to set. I had a heavy mice before and it messed up when I play it all day it’ll switch my weapons on it’s own. But haven’t had an issue with this one. I would buy another one if this would would go out.

    I've had one for about 3 months now. Definitely not good for hard mousepads as it'll really scratch them up. A couple of the buttons (hindmost button on the left side and the button south of the mouse wheel) are too inconveniently reached to be good for gaming. The thing works, at least, but it's absolutely not worth the price.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Scroll wheel broke after 3 weeks of regular gaming use. Not sure what's going on with Steel Series quality control these days. Probably better off with another brand till they get their quality back to standard.
