MOUSE REVIEW THREAD

[xHikaru!]

I always wanted to try Steelseries mice but I never bought one.
I'm thinking on giving a try the Sensei or the Diablo 3 mouse, or even the new Rival.

Not decided yet.

What's so special about it. All I saw were complaints about it's sensor having acceleration and some having input lag...

firmware updates on the g500s solve those problems but you have to go through some hoops to do it

i found that optical works much better for me than laser. One quirk I found is that the g500s doesn't like to play nice with other usb devices such as my xbox controller and being hooked up simultaneously with a deathadder or another logitech mouse. This was with LGS installed too. It's not a terrible mouse but the g400s is by far the better model in my opinion.

I had some laptop wireless mouse before upgrading to a G500.. for a month or so my aim was so bad it's like I was using a touchpad. It got better after that, but the shape of the mouse just wasn't right for me, and it was too heavy. After about a year the scrollwheel broke, sensor was glitchy (didn't work on any cloth pad, only hard pads), and finally what made me trash it was the cord - it got ripped up because of friction on the edge of the desk, and now the mouse was turning on and off all the time.

Got myself a SteelSeries Kinzu v2 pro, don't worry it's not like the V1 that had an advertised "feature" of acceleration I like it because the shape resembles the "perfect" shape of the WMO but it's not so bulky, and the mouse is really light (70-80 grams I think). It does have a low malfunction speed, so if you move it really fast across the pad it gets negative accel. But I've never had that happen in game, then again I'm not a low sens player. The only issue is that I have to wipe it every time because it's glossy on the top and gets dirty.
