your review is extremely poor and redundant.

simple feedback.

[D4RKSL4Y3R123]

@lazzermusen your allowed to have that view. my view is that there are so many people posting videos of them unboxing the product and then just talking about all the facts which are attainable on the box or website. where as i talk about the important facts about the mouse that cannot be found printed by the manufacturer, such as perfect control speed and the exact weight without the cord etc. but then this is youtube, so i cant exspect every one to understand :)

wmo ftw

[D4RKSL4Y3R123]

@ojdrinkz yes, that is my current mouse

[LiquidusTalon]

What firmware are you using on the mouse? I heard there were problems with the firmware ultimately. Are you sure about the acceleration issues?

[D4RKSL4Y3R123]

@LiquidusTalon yep positive, im using latest firmware- iv changed my mouse to a intellimouse 1.1 due to the xai's laser sensor. Its not a bad sensor at all, it has AMAZING tracking speeds but the 5-10% pos/neg accel i feel is a skill cap after about a year of using it

please in future don't overlay music.

Not everyone likes the kind of shit that you listen to.

[blainemono1983]

Thanks for the review!

There are so few REAL technical mouse reviews that I really don't understand the complainers. I get that one might not like the background music but I'd take that any day compared to reviews which youtube is full of. Most of them present the specs list and impression and leave out the important stuff like max tracking rate, lift-off distance and prediction.

nice music..

[ibzmav]

this review would be better w/o the ugly music in the background.

[cabronian1337]
