Rating + 5 Great Mouse for the Price


Pros: It's a gaming mouse for $16 ($23 after shipping)

adjustable dpi
ergonomic shape
scroll wheel works (it's a $23 gaming mouse, this isn't always the case)
no driver issues (no extra driver)

Cons: no extra buttons (not even forward/back)
only one color
very light

notice that I still gave it 5 eggs

Other Thoughts: The main feature of this mouse is the price.

If you want a full-featured mouse, buy a Logitech or a Razer. If you want a cheap gaming mouse that works, buy this.

This mouse has given me no problems in the month or so since it's been in use. It's just as responsive as I would expect and makes a great travel mouse for a laptop or a great gift.

Rating + 4 very happy


Pros: i didn't want to spend alot of money for a new mouse. this one is inexpensive for what you get. works great. looks cool, it looks like a more expensive mouse. red illuminated scroll-wheel. feels comfortable.

Cons: these aren't big deals to me, but... only available in red? scroll wheel seems sunken deeper than i am used to. feels very light. this might be an issue for some.

Other Thoughts: has a small silver button in the center labeled "dpi". when you press it once the illuminated scroll wheel flashes quickly to let you know its entering high-sensitivity. press again and the scroll wheel flashes slowly to indicate standard sensitivity.

Rating + 4


Pros: It has a nice size to it, I have large hands and it is relatively comfortable. It has a 1600 DPI setting, making it ok for gaming. Scroll wheel lights up red, so it looks neat. Incredibly cheap, pricewise.

Cons: It is just too light. Feels cheap. The buttons are a bit sensitive, i mean the buttons themselves, not the action on them. I would rest my finger on the right mouse button without actually pressing it and it would go off. Having to hover over the button is all fine and dandy until you have been playing a game for a couple of hours.

Other Thoughts: For general purposes, this mouse is perfect. Inexpensive, decent accuracy. I don't recommend for gaming. The lack of weight makes it inaccurate.

Rating + 4 Update to past review


Pros: After the first week, my (large) hands got used to the design and it is the best feeling mouse I've ever had. Great grip, movement, weight, and design. I've been using it for several months now.

Cons: There's a very bad design problem for any FPS gamer. If you hold both the right and left buttons down for a couple seconds, it switches the DPI setting and thus the mouse sensitivity. This has made playing Modern Warfare 2 a chore because I often have to press both buttons at once, and the higher DPI setting is FAR too sensitive. It's caused me many virtual deaths, so I went ahead and ordered a Razer gaming mouse to replace it.

Other Thoughts: I highly recommend the mouse for non-gaming users, but gamers should be looking elsewhere. I have to switch back the DPI settings on the mouse several times a match and often when I'm in the middle of a firefight.

Rating + 4 For Big Hands Only


Pros: Tracks very well on multiple surface types, on-the-fly DPI setting, subtle rubberized feel without feeling sticky, ergonomic design for big hands.

Cons: The picture made it look like a 5-button mouse, it's only 3. My fault for not looking more carefully.

-1 Egg for weight, or lack thereof. For such a large mouse, it has virtually no weight in your hand. A little weight would be nice.

Other Thoughts: This mouse's ergonomic design is great for large hands (like mine). For someone with much smaller hands, they may find the design uncomfortable, especially since there is a semi-sharp edge near the thumb. If you have small hands, read this as 3/5 eggs instead of 4/5.

Rating + 5 very good

Cons: none really

Other Thoughts: like i said, i normally wont touch something that has "I-...." in its name but this turned out to be a great mouse.

Rating + 5 Nice upgrade

Rating + 5 Getting used to it


Pros: Comfortable, affordable, and works like a charm

Cons: The higher sensitivity takes a little getting used to if you're used to an optical. Of course, there's the dpi button that takes care of that.

Other Thoughts: As soon as I saw the colors, I knew I had to get this for my computer. It matches the color scheme perfectly. The red light in the scroll wheel is a nice touch.

Rating + 5 Nice laser mouse and red!


Pros: Nice looking (beautiful red coloring), smooth feel with adequate grip (not too slippery!). Red scroll wheel is very nice, not too bright but definitely noticeable. Doesn't have a lot of extra buttons which, for day to day, non-gaming tasks, I absolutely hate to deal with. Quiet clicks (buttons and scroll wheel). Positive, smooth feedback on scrolling. Nice knurling on the scroll wheel.

Cons: Lightweight. Might matter for some people, doesn't really impact me. Wanted to mention regardless. Not knowing anything else, one would tend to assume this mouse was cheap given the weight. It doesn't have enough heft to it.

Other Thoughts: For the money, this is a really nice mouse. I was in the market for a simple upgrade, a laser mouse that didn't have all kinds of extra buttons and features I didn't need. I also wanted it to be red and corded. This mouse, in particular, fits perfectly in those requirements and gives me everything I need. Definitely worth the money and I would buy it again.

Rating + 5 Can't beat it!


Pros: comfortable, feels like a mold of my hand, dpi switch gives you all the sensitivity you need for gaming, cool illuminated scroll wheel that flashes when you switch dpi, cord is plenty long enough for standard setups.

Cons: could have had 1 or 2 more buttons for flexibility, a little lightweight for my preference, but it seems to be solid enough.

Other Thoughts: for 15.99 you get a laser gaming mouse. are you kidding me? buy it.

Pros: very smooth on almost any surface. scroll wheel has well defined steps. fits hand very well. dpi button well positioned and useful. right, left, and middle buttons work very well (not too easy to click but not too hard). besides all that it looks awesome! i've only had it for a day but i am very impressed so far.

Cons: no cons yet. if i have any it will be durability issues. but hey it was only 15 bucks

Rating + 5 Very cool mouse


Pros: - good ergonomic design
- very stylish
- normal to high dpi with one button click

Cons: Zero. Nada.

Other Thoughts: Someone mentioned that the cord is too short. I disagree. This mouse wire goes down and under my desk and into the back of my monitor. I was worried because my tower won't fit directly under my desk, but the wire is plenty long enough anyway.

Also, the DPI setting button is pretty useful. For browsing my computer or the internet I use the normal DPI, but for shooter games I find the increased DPI to help with my accuracy.

Rating + 4 Awesome


Pros: This mouse is absolutely amazing. The scroll wheel lights up bright red, and the lazer traching is great. I actually had to turn my mouse sensitivity down from all my games; and I previously had a high-end optical mouse.

Cons: The cord is kind of small. and if your mouse is going to be a good distance from your computer I would look into extensions.
