Best Performance For The Price

If you are in the market for a gaming or performance mouse, this is one you need to check out. The best feature for me is the 5700DPI so I can move across the screen in a snap. I got this as an improvement over my Razer Abyssus and have no regrets. For those who are users of macro keys, which is being able to do other functions other than clicks from a mouse, this is great as it has 10 extra buttons for such functions. Along with that, the hyperscrolling feature is great when I have to go through a long web page and click a link that is far from the top. Over all, this mouse is top when it comes to the button placement and features with it. The one downside to this is that it can only store one macro set at a time so people with multiple setups might need to get one of the newer versions with more memory. In my use with the mouse, I have encountered little hand/arm fatigue with it. Caution though to those who are left-handed/southpaw. This mouse is designed for right handed people so you might be better off with the MX Anywhere or some other more ambidextrous/left-handed design. Since I am right-handed, I have no qualms about this. My final note is the weight cage which is funky to pop out but it is great for those who need the extra weight in a mouse. I found it useful in games where I wanted top movement speed but enough weight to stop myself from going too far. You can put a maximum of 27g (roughly 1 wt oz) in the cage or can opt to not use it at all. With my $25 store coupon, this purchase was even better and I highly recommend this device to people looking for a high grade mouse for a pretty cheap price.
