Works as expected for the price. RGB functions as described. However the two secondary buttons on the left of the mouse are in a position where they are easy to hit accidentally.

This is a great mouse except for the fact that the side buttons cannot be disabled. You will constantly hit it with your thumb and get frustrated with the thing.

Very poor design The sides are flared out at the bottom, so you can not pick it up very easily.

Very heavy mouse, sometimes always accidentally click the side buttons because its hard to maneuver and hard to grip onto. If you get it on sale for around $20 I’d say its worth, but if you're Getting it for original price, its really not worth

This mouse takes some times to get used to and very light weighted. I would trade one for the AW958; which is much better and more responsive...

I bought the mouse to use with my Altium Designer Software and it was not used as a gaming mouse. The other buttons were being pressed while try to use the mouse and it caused me problems. Since I do not play Games I am not sure what the rating would be if used only for gaming.

I really liked the quality of the materials with which it is built, and above all I liked its operation and software quality

This mouse has very smooth action on multiple surfaces. The buttons have a solid feel and it is comfortable in the hand.

Alienware Advanced AW558 is an outstanding product and if your gamer go for it, make sure you have huge hands LOL.

This is my second mouse and both broke. I need to click a couple times to get it going.

I bought this mouse as a matching accessory when I bought my Alienware Area M51 Laptop. I was impressed with the lights and how well it fit in my hand. I was not happy that the buttons couldn’t be customized to do simple windows functions. I used the tilt wheel to adjust volume with my Logitech mouse, but it is not possible with this one. The driver doesn’t allow any programming or customization of any of the buttons. Even in the Alienware software, only the two side buttons are programmable at the moment. For now, I will be switching back to my Logitech mouse for its function ability.

Was looking for mouse for MMORPG with 6 side buttons. Got whis one. First 3 weeks it was perfect. Side with 6 buttons - for gaming, and mouse in general good for working with photoes (good sensivity). After 3 weeks - button 1 stopped working (from side buttons). In 2 month - button 2 stopped working... Now top 3 buttons are already not working (and I'm casual player - 2-3 hours per week). Now had to stop using side pannel with 6 buttons. Except this - mouse is good, very precise and comfortable.

Didn't like the side button placement. Kept hitting them by accident. Just not for me. Returned it.

I wasted my money on this as it is intermittent, jerky and does not continuously follow the physical hand motion.

I use this at work. I know it's a gaming mouse but I purchased it because i'm geeky. I read complaints about the grip, the side buttons, etc. Yes i had similar issues at first, but I knew I had to get used to this mouse because it's entirely different than my last mouse. I'm on my 3rd day of using it and now that I have gotten used to it, I can use it pretty much flawlessly. In my opinion, the people who are complaining about this mouse wanted instant gratification and didn't think about the fact that they would need to learn the grip, shape, movement and functions of the mouse and they just gave up and got frustrated too quickly. This mouse is awesome and I would recommend it to any reasonable person who wants a really cool mouse that has some useful functions.

I thoroughly dislike this mouse, it has poor grip, tilt buttons that cant be mapped even through alienwares own software. The buttons that can be mapped cant even be used to operate a simple PTT in discord. I would return it but Im passed the limit as I really tried to like the mouse.

I bought this mouse about 4-5 months ago, it was my first ever gaming mouse so I didn't really know what was good and bad. It worked fine, but it kept disconnecting from my laptop(Alienware 17 R4). Another problem with it is that it squeaks really loudly when using it. It has no grip which makes my hand constantly slip off and it gets really annoying. It was pretty cheap though, so I don't feel like I wasted money, just disappointing.

I bought this about a couple of weeks ago and its an ok funcionting mouse. It is just hard to grip. Not hard but hard to keep a hold of. Not sure if its me but I have small hands and my hands tend to slip off. It doesn't have a natural curve that keeps your hand staying on the mouse like other gaming mice. Other than that, it works just fine.

All these reviews saying the mouse doesnt work or its poorly assembled are full of bologna. Me and my 3 brothers own this specific mouse and none of us have problems with them and we have had them for 5+ months. Quit hating, cause you probably arent good at whatever game youre playing so you feel the need to blame a mechanical item instead of your own abilities. Love it!

The USB connection is unreliable. Goes in and out. Poor design for a lot of money.
