Microsoft SideWinder X8 mouse

[dathwampeer]

I love this mouse, the only problem is that infernal blue tracking has ruined me forever. I can't even contemplate using my R.A.T for an FPS anymore simply because it's not as precise as this.

[s1rpala1nen]

He forgot to mention the mouses changeable feets.

[RisedBehindYou]

Please cut your nails...

[sayhai]

they should put some porn music in this video.....

[sayhai]

did he just swallow a cat down??

[LockheedC130]

This microsoft kinda guy looks like a mouse itself. No offence though xD

[TheElcentralen]

i can realy recomend this mouse had it for 5 month now. the mouse is quite large so be prepared.

this is my first mouse to be wireless and it is actualy much better to not need a cable then i thought, the programable button will record all keyboard and mouse presses and the delay you make while you record. and if you pressed a little late you can simply go in and edit your own recording to get of some mile sec. i love the recharge cable thx to it only needing to recharge makes it realy thin.

[SaBiN11100]

can the side buttons be assigned with the shift or control or alt key????

[2jnc5]

he looks constipated

[George32027]

@2jnc5 haha yeah he was like ''i have to run to the bathroom''

[burninrubber440]

I had a mouse that was wireless.. but it used metal mousepad with wires

[9393andersson]

nice gaming mouse!

[Dtemplar22]

fat fuks

[WhackCheese]

@Dtemplar22 lol

[GreenJusticeSA]

Product is not even listed on the Microsoft hardware web site and more importantly there are no OSX drivers for it and it does not work (for me anyhow) on OSX. It's a nice feeling mouse with a good weight but it's not good that it will not work on OSX. The transceiver is detected but the mouse is not.

[MatthewOnciul]

@GreenJusticeSA you are using a Mac... why do you need a gaming mouse? lol xD

[2TonguesDave]

@GreenJusticeSA By who on earth games on OSX??

[Runex45]

sausage fingers!

[Adestructionproduct]

My mum just bought this for my Bday so I hope its good :)

[ginywiny]

thats not gates....

[bestpctips]

i have a 1dpi mouse

[bestpctips]

Wait... did he just compair a mouse to a sportscar engine?

[UsmaanPro]

@bestpctips Like....We should cut off his supply of oxygen for doing that.....Right?

[parry1994]

i just bouth this mouse and its EPIC :D

[drummerkid222]

this and the logitech MX performance mouse need to have a child,

I want the performance of this mouse along side the glass tracking and comfort of the MX =(

[beeper182]

@drummerkid222 I want this mouse plain and simple, half the logitech gear I've bought has died really quick :(

[UnknownXV]

@drummerkid222 Bluetrak is more precise than any other mouse I know of. It's even better than laser.

[drummerkid222]

@UnknownXV no, i mean i want this mouse to track on glass bacicaly, plus i just bought an MX anywhere mouse and it is great so it dont matter

[UnknownXV]

@drummerkid222 It does track on glass. Better than a purely laser mouse.

If yours doesn't, it's defective. Send it for a replacement.

[FirebirdDude]

WOO MICROSOFT WOO SIDEWINDER!!!!

[thecapital15]

Co za asy :) hahahaha

[ChonganBoii]

[mihucool]

[fearfrozen75]

[Misiek690]

[MrPcHuNtEr]

[monsterrun]

[apolloadamalee]

[mrbigtime81]

[coolbreez4]

@mrbigtime81 Yes this is a good mouse for you.

[LolKOwned]

The battery supports 30 hours of active gameplay? I play more than that in a day..

[deli12345563]

@LolKOwned lol dude there is only 24 hours in a day

[Dudedanrocks]

@deli12345563 thats the joke..

[deli12345563]

@Dudedanrocks now i feel like an idiot.....dang :(

[pugi050]

@LolKOwned Wow 30 hours is in your day? Wtf are you some time-lord lolz

[Wishdagger]

@pugi050 he plays overactive

[AithaKartik]

@LolKOwned u play more than that in a Day? Let me help u out here mate. There are only 24 fuckin hours in a day. Where did u bring the extra 6 hours from

[Evilnils]

@AithaKartik You're joking yeah? Atleast he is. Dont take it to seriously.... -__-"

[AithaKartik]

@Evilnils No i am not. just being Sarcastic abt what it is

[ItsRG4M3R]

@LolKOwned imposibru

[andyllamanipl]

@LolKOwned You are my idol now.

[Arcaninesy]

@LolKOwned I think you should find it somewhat hard to cram 30 hours of active gameplay into a day...

Try using a time machine perhaps?

[nofalter0x]

awwww.. that's a big ass receiver!

[daumus]

and the red dude forgot to tell us that the mouse also has a diffuser section on its back to improve aerodynamics and add some more downforce when it will be moving at really high speed lolz

[Katalist1]

Get your money back!

[roxieman79]

@FiliPinoy95 yes

[aelita12345678910]

wireless sucks in gaming

[sanSNAI]

wireless tehnology causes cancer

[oramn2]

yeeeep

[carlusdarienus]

5/10 mouse its too big for my hands and this mouse is not good for strategy games like starcraft II and Heroes Of Newerth. The scroll button is too noisy and sometimes the cursor lags. The buttons are a bit hard to press when long time use gives strains to my hand. Only good thing about it is the looks and the programmable buttons that's it.

[SaiE8]

@carlusdarienus

At first it seemed really big for my hands since i was use to a more ergonomical mouse as well as having small hands, but i got use to it and it is comfortable even after hours of use. It just takes a few weeks to get use too. Scroll button for me is fine, ive never gotten lag whilst using it, but i do agree the side buttons are stiff.

[SirAqeel]

Why do they send a rat to review a mouse?

[jnisperuza]

@SirAqeel jajajajajajaja he looks like a fuck rat

@locolalo1364 You know, by telling people about this decreases your chances of winning this. thnx though

[locolalo1364]

@splatwacker Really? Oh well good luck everyone

[rajfoxx]

so...this isn't really wireless. great. 

[vladuthz1994]

@rajfoxx its completely wireless, what do you mean?

[MrJLaza]

since i have 2 gaming computers both Alienware 51's can i move the mouse from computer to computer (noob question is lame ftw)

[Agomongo1235]

BILL from microsoft Bill Gates did u get plastic surgery

[vlad3tz]

is the microsoft sidewinder x8 a good mouse for counter-strike?

[songer885]

its actually a small mouse.

[philneedshelp]

@songer885

is it smaller than the fist sidewinder mouse as i love the size if that but wanting to upgrade

[songer885]

@philneedshelp its fine, the shape is perfect, fits in your hand better than most other mice.

[MrJLaza]

@songer885 but i has tiny/medium sized hands... will it be good?

[songer885]

@MrJLaza Problem with tiny/medium sized hands is that you will only reach just before the scrollwheel. I reccomend getting a Razer. I have massive hands so thats probably why I find it quite small. After a while of using it it's also killing my ring/little finger. It's not a perfect shape for the hand. I am going to get a new one soon though.

[MrJLaza]

@songer885 well for me the logitech G9 is fucking tiny and my hand like is 2x that so idk and im getting the x8 for free so i guess its fine and i could always ..... get a razer for 1024031042 dollars

[songer885]

@MrJLaza Ok but don't tell me I didn't warn you about the shape of it. It's horrible, theres no place for your 2 fingers on your right to go. After a while it's gonna hurt.

[MollehTheCat]

I have this one for almost a year now and it does an awesome job for me :D

I had many wireless mice and i liked this cause i can still play while it is charging unlike the others that need a charging stand :)

[joblessalex]

lol at the soccer ball button!

[keyzin]

while the staff from microsoft speaking ... i guess razer staff is taking their mamba and kick the microsoft ass

[ParticalMahn]

I just ordered one of these :P

[udayonze]

sidewinder x8 is awesome for small hands and enough for a big hand....

It's 12.5 centimetres...now do the math

[un4seendeathz]

I almost forgot it was made by microsoft when i saw the designO_o

[Johnnyboybravo]

my dpi settings is disable? how do I enable to adjust the dpi? 

yes x8 is selected...

[aelita12345678910]

he just showed us how cars will be in the future THX MICROSOFT!

[onikinhas]

He didn't even mention the interchangeable feet. Marketing fail!

[yevgeniy8888]

Cars will be like that looking in future =)

[stephos21]

wow!!microsoft really likes the color blue!!!!Bluetrack technology,bluescreen technology....lmao..:P

[Dudeifwhat]

fake and gay

[cutefishyz]

deathadder = palm grip i bought it and i need to sell it now coz i use claw grip :/

[DragonAge1103]

As usual, a video involving microsoft feels generic, poorly scripted, & just dull BUT this is a awesome mouse!

[jsquad192837465]

Mamba is best.

[N1ght3d]

so, ya know, ya know, ya know, microsoft, ya know, so, ya know, uh, ya know. My head is too small for my body. :D

[matykpo06]

alto mouse

[7heTexanRebel]

I don't like wireless keyboards/mice. The batteries always run out and you have to replace them.

[RonSuperJet]

All the functions and fancy things this mouse does is great, but what is not clearly stated in this video is the fact that you need to have medium large or large hands to use it comfortably, this is a Mans mouse :)

[TheTF2Soldier]

@RonSuperJet lol perfect weeds out all the tiny baby men (Tf2 reference)

[killhiri]

@RonSuperJet lol, Ive purchased one now :D and my hands are xxl ;D

[RUSIFPH72]

@RonSuperJet only a real man can use a real mouse

[KLpyro]

@RonSuperJet

I have that mouse, but i think the back is actually too short :(

[atomikrobot300099]

@RonSuperJet Well put! I have this mouse and can palm a basketball easy - this mouse is great!

[THATS1CK]

@RonSuperJet

I'm 15 and I can use it comfortably.

I'm a man? :D

[RonSuperJet]

@THATS1CK

On your profile it says you are 21, are you a man? Who knows :)

Glad you can use the mouse ok though.



[THATS1CK]

@RonSuperJet

Stalker much? :)

[GeorgeninhoG10]

guys i want to buy sidewinder mouse...but i dont know which are the difrences between retail ediotion or dsp can anyone tell me plz?

[sexxylevi11]

wtf r u talking about

[GeorgeninhoG10]

@sexxylevi11 im talking about your  mum

[SergeyKoroleFF]

I bought this mouse last week, and it is just great!

It is big, but cofortable for my big hands. It has no lag. So I am glad to have it now!

[IanasAnd]

RAzer and logitech wireless and its cheaper than this..this MONSTER u call a mouse OMG

[Jeradeth]

When you are using it wirelessly, does the cable still have to be attached to the comp (just not to a mouse)?

[malevolentbeing1]

lol this guy looks like a greasy mouse.

[HansDragonforce]

@malevolentbeing1 haha that is so true :P

[geoffreytracy]

@malevolentbeing1 Lol I was watching this video, half a sleep just kind of browsing through videos, and I read your comment and almost fell off my chair. HAHA Now that you've said that, I can't look at this freak without cracking up!

[genryuusai]

@malevolentbeing1 jesus that made me laugh hard xD

[HostileSausage]

@malevolentbeing1 LMAO greasy mouse?!

so awesome

[VicoBellik]

I bought this mouse about 1 weak ago.i can't use the sides buttons just uncomfortably the mouse too big ,the mouse moves I mean the the lay of it is not stable(tried all of feet)The movement of this mistake its absolutely not little. 1mm about.

This way is useless for games but otherwise useless for all too 4 me..

And the movement of the scrolling its so loud and still hard to roll also.Though it was really expensive I use my regular Logitech mouse while I swap it back

[JerryRSun]

@VicoBellik

I wish I saw your comment before I bought it. Now I'm returning it. All the comfort complaints are true...this mouse sucks. I am also having trouble with the feet. What's the point of BlueTrak tracking any surface if it gets stuck on common surfaces? I'm getting the Mamba.

[Dj3dda]

How long will the battery work fully charged and how long does it take to charge it up to 100% from 0% while gaming?

[Johnalexgray]

@Dj3dda charge 5 min for 1 hour of gaming full charge is 30 hours. (i just got the mouse myself)

[MadSupra354]

20 minutes to recharge while using it = O

[ethicks00]

30 minutes and 30 hours under continuous use.

[TheMrHandMan]

I am going to buy this mouse and the x6 just for star wars the old republic!

[BoMbErX21]

umm its mainly meant to be used for right hand only maybe they have special orders for left handers.

[fmrc1011]

do you think this mouse is good for leftys????

[ADrunkenOrphan]

I am a lefty, I just learned to use it right handed.

[Krath117]

"it's from Microsoft so you know its a great product..."

well that isn't a load of horse-shit or anything...

[tigercrap]

My G7 sucks cause the bat dies at 8 hrs. ANd the slick surface sucks. I need a mouse with a rubber coating! Logitec just doesn't cut it anymore. I will switch to Razer or this X8.

[Johnalexgray]

@tigercrap no rubber on this mouse though its just plastic. one other thing my hand seems to sweat with this mouse

[underpantswedgy]

So the way this charges is by way of USB connected to computer, or MAINS electrical socket?

[MWoody92]

@underpantswedgy USB

[MalamuteBewondert]

USB

[TheRomanCandle790]

cant wait to get it!!

[PatchA4]

I have a feeling the bloke asking about it had more clue as to what it had and what it all meant.

[TheRomanCandle790]

lmao prolly true hah!!

P.S.: the link works removing the two " [ " from the link ;)

[J0uzze]

I liked the way Bill talked, it wasn't like most people from any manufackturer who have come to sell their produckts, Bill cinda talked like people talks to their buddies or something.

[Lucario1211]

There's been earlier wireless gaming mice like the Logitech G7... Bill lies.

[J0uzze]

He said it's the firs wireles mouse in their produckt line.

[NebNitram7]

He says "It's the first wireless gaming mouse" deceit may not have been his intention but it is what happened. There have been several other wireless gaming mice. That said, the sidewinder x8 is a great mouse for a decent price.

[elenchus]

I think he's saying that it's MS' first. It was a bit misleading though.

[Lucario1211]

Ah.

[CruelQuertos]

feel good maan

[DCDHU81]

AA rechargable battery???

[0mumble0]

i just got this mouse and i luv it <3 best mouse ever!!!!!!

[qert079]

i have not bought myself any mouse before and most of them are free gifts from purchasing laptops. but i am convinced that this is the mouse that i am willing to purchase for ultimate gaming experience!

[Itismevignesh]

i am a fan of sidewinder . i have the sidewinder mouse...

but this thing not yet available in india.......

[imhungry493]

Sucks for you! :D

[cataxo444]

Wow looks really cool ! Microsoft needs to make a keyboard to match this quality ! The X6 keyboard and the Reclusa just suck big time.

[Realsoft3D]

X6 owns.. but Reclusa sucks

[leoncarbon]

reclusa sucks but lycosa is awesome!

[Lucario1211]

How true. I love the Lycosa, it's so great.

[Peetah16]

c00l man ive been w8ting to buy the x4 but know this is out ii changed my mindXD

[HerrFausten]

looks cool, the razer mamba sucks balls tested it lags like hell also the buttons are crap

[cokobware]

Go Jukes!

[gozxdesastros]

I bought it yesterday and its right what i wanted. its for gaming, its wireless, it does its job rly good (speed, latency etc..) and it looks rly nice to me. the only thing is, i think its not a mouse for small hands. mfg

[gozxdesastros]

I rly rrrrlllllyyyyy like this mouse. Besides the G7 from Logitech the only real wireless gaming mouse and I will get it! :D

[mat0904]

Razer Mamba?

[Jackhammer8]

Sidewinder Fan!
