CM Storm Recon Gaming Mouse

The Recon Gaming Mouse is designed specifically for gamers that demand the utmost in durability, functionality, and accuracy. The ambidextrous form factor and rubberized coating provides delivers versatility for any grip type. Recon is equipped with a pair of Omron micro switches and Avago 3090 high-precision LED sensor, allowing users to switch between 800, 1600, 3200, and 4000 DPI on-the-fly. The built-in 32KB memory integrates up to 5 profiles and 36 macros to personalize the mouse for your gaming style. The CM Storm Recon is the top choice of FPS gamers demanding the best.

PRECISION TRACKING
The Recon utilizes the latest high performance Avago 3090 LED engine, which tracks movements with the highest sensitivity on the market. Users can customize their settings and define up to 4 DPI levels for each profile.
ADAPTIVE CONTROL
When the sensor DPI setting or USB polling rate changes, the tracking properties of the sensor changes as well. So with the Recon, for the first time ever, users can fine tune the USB speed and lift off distance for each DPI level within every profile!
AMBIDEXTROUS DESIGN
Thanks to a unique ergonomic design, Recon is comfortable for left and right handed gamers alike. The opposing thumb-rest acts as a ring finger and pinky rest. The extra thumb buttons can be programmed to act as a Macro or Special Function keys.
OMRON MICRO SWITCHES RATED AT 5 MILLION CLICKS
Omron’s exclusive ultra-tactile micro switches create unsurpassed tactile feedback and speed.The guaranteed 5 million clicks from these high grade switches means that the Recon will provide an extended life-span even for the most hardcore gamers.
MAXIMUM CUSTOMIZATION
Recon features 3 individual multi-color LED zones (mousewheel, DPI buttons, and CM Storm logo). The brightness and color of each zone can be fine-tuned with over 160,000 colors to choose from.
RUBBERIZED ANTI-SLIP DESIGN
A special sweat-proof rubber compound on both sides of the Recon keeps your hand secured. Even in heated long matches and during quick life and drop moves, you retain full control and grip.

4 out of 5 eggsPretty good.

Pros: -Good amount of DPI, so one can tweak settings to either increase mouse speed, and/or increase mouse accuracy.
-Comfortable.

Cons: -Side buttons may get in the way if you're not use to them. It's easy to get used to though.

-The grippy part where your thumb may sit, as well and ring and pinky fingers wears out very fast. I've had the mouse for less than 1 month and it's already rubbing off and I can see where my fingers have been sitting.

Other Thoughts: -Lack of software? I'm not sure if it was suppose to come with anything, or if it even has customizable buttons/colours. Either way, it doesn't bother me because I didn't buy with that in mind.

4 out of 5 eggsAwsome mouse

Pros: Awesome design. I have pretty big hands, and the mouse fits in it perfect. The LED's aren't to bright, but they aren't dull either.

Cons: The gripper material gets a little dirty

Other Thoughts: I would totally buy this again

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Responsive Gaming Mouse!

Pros: - High DPI
- DPI Level Selection (For in-game, and out)
- Amazing response time (As expected)
- Neat little lighting accents

Cons: The space beneath the side buttons, where one's thumb rests, on the side of the mouse; is not quite as sturdy as I'd like - As there is already some definite signs of wear. Nothing terribly major to note, though.

Other Thoughts: I've been a gamer since a very young age; but never really got too serious about my hardware, until recent years - And I finally got tired of playing FPS games, clicking, and somehow dying, without getting a shot off. I got incredibly frustrated, for many years - And then finally decided it was time to buy some high-end peripherals. Since buying this mouse; when playing CSS, rarely do I find myself dead, before the enemy finds a bullet from an AWP in their face.
This was a great buy, in my opinion.

4 out of 5 eggsGreat at first but...

Pros: Very responsive, smooth gliding, nice textured grip and easily programmable via the included software.

Cons: The scroll wheel started squeaking 3 months after fairly heavy use.

Other Thoughts: The chord is not as thin as some other gaming mice, not really a con since it's more durable but it is definitely more noticeable during fast action gaming.

2 out of 5 eggsworked great for a short while

Pros: looks great, comfortable, decent programming options (I never really used them, didn't have too)
when it was working it was a great mouse

Cons: The left and right button switches seemed tight and responsive, until only two months later. The left button is already starting to stick, every so often I have to grab the edges of the button and pull it up when it sticks.
I only use the mouse occasionally about once every other day for an hour or so.
I find it ironic that they advertise specifically the quality of the switches, maybe I got a rare cruddy one. Anyways it's now past the 30 day return policy I plan on contacting the company and see what I can do.

3 out of 5 eggsGaming Mouse

Pros: Not too bad! It seems to do the job I expected. It is my first true gaming mouse. It seems to be as responsive as I wanted it to be. It can be switched in game if i need more response time.

Cons: None at this time,except it is slightly bulky for my taste.

Other Thoughts: It is pretty cool product for the money. Multi colors when switching dpi. Lights are soft looking not too bright. Would buy again if needed.

5 out of 5 eggsAwesome Mouse

Pros: I'm an ambidextrous mouse user and I've been trying to find a mouse to replace my Microsoft Optical USB Mouse for many years. I've tried other Microsoft Mice as well as Mice from Razer and couldn't find one that I liked. This baby has finally unseated my old Microsoft. It is nicely weighted and has a very solid feel.The programming is very powerful and the multiple LED lights are fun. You can even program it to change profiles which I used to link color changes to changes in sensitivity.

Cons: Incremental speed adjustments would be helpful. It has four settings: 800, 1600, 3200, 4000

Other Thoughts: I highly recommend it! Newegg was awesome as usual.

1 out of 5 eggsNo customer support

Pros: Not Really

Cons: The setup instructions are very limited. People have posted UTube info, but still very sketchy. Never really explained how the settings worked. I could not get the colors on without the mouse freezing.. Waste of time

1 out of 5 eggsWhere to start?

Pros: its a gaming mouse

Cons: Came with no software or instructions for that matter for software, after getting the software it said it was doing a flash of some sort ....all good and ready to use the software to customize this thing ... clicked on profile 1, turned off the 2 right side buttons and changed the colors on the wheel, buttons and logo , clicked save and BAM .....everything saved , but mouse non functional ... won't move at all .... plug another mouse in and set it back to default and it works again ....Really?????

So I go looking for answers and find that it MAY NOT be compatible with Windows8, No problem ... Just load up a fresh Install of Windows7 cause 8 is BAD anyways and still Nothing working if you change anything ...

Other Thoughts: cool looking but thats about it ... Cooler master really dropped the ball on this one. Its not the hardware IMO ... its the software or lack of it that killed it.

This will get an RMA-refund
