GIGABYTE AORUS M3 Gaming Mouse

Pros: .

Cons: This is NOT a 5+1 button mouse. Just thought I would let you all know this is in fact a regular mouse with 2 side buttons that ARE NOT programmable. They are simply forward and backward buttons for web surfing.

Overall Review: I wish they would QUIT calling this mouse a 5+1 button mouse when all that WILL happen is tick people off and force them to find some 3rd party software to reprogram the buttons, and trust you me folks, it gets REALLY messy with this mouse. I finally gave up on trying to find something that I could fool the computer into thinking these buttons were something else. . you HAVE been warned. . I AM a verified owner. I got this for my mom's new build 2 yrs ago. It came as a combo with a gigabyte keyboard also. She settled for the quipment considering it would have cost the same to send it back as it did for the whole purchase. . If you're a gamer, steer clear of this mouse.

Pros: It's big, feels great in the hands and its comfortable.

Cons: It's decent for gaming but I would not recommend it as a daily gaming mouse. The left clicker failed in less than 8 months of use. It now double clicks on everything automatically.

Overall Review: This is my last time purchasing Gigabyte. I purchased this in a combo with a keyboard and while it worked good for a few months it is now useless because the left clicker double clicks on everything. I have tried it on different PC's, same result. Tried uninstalling driver and reinstalling Gigabyte driver, same result. Gigabyte support is useless. The first person I talked to treated me like was a moron and it was my fault. A mouse isn't exactly complicated and I think most of us know when its user error or device failure. He sent me through a painful RMA process. Its been a week and I still don't have my RMA approved. I am a business owner. I rely on these products to work. Time is money so I bought new Logitech keyboard and mouse and just moved forward. These companies might think their slick giving the end user the run around but in the end they lose because people like me will never buy from them again.

Pros: * Comfortable for all day use * Good side-button placement * Never misses a movement * Accurate * Reliable

Cons: *Collects dust on the bottom.

Overall Review: I have two of these units and have been very pleased with the comfort and reliability. The price is always good and worth it.

Pros: Works great, very light (if you like a light mouse), fits comfortably in my hand, buttons on the side aren't in the way where my thumb might accidentally hit them.

Cons: Only has two DPI settings.

Overall Review: This mouse is perfect for me, I do wish it had a little better DPI settings, but that's really the only con for me. However, that being said, there are still much better gaming mice out there, but for the price, this one is hard to beat.

Pros: It's cheap (especially for a "gaming" mouse) It has all the basic buttons + forward/back (Could use left/right tilt) It's lightweight (I almost thought NewEgg sent me a box of nothing) The scroll wheel is nicer compared to my past mice. But it does wiggle left/right as if it had tilt. I actually had to check on that because the software that you download from the Gigabyte website has a tilt section you can set and that lead me to believe I had tilt based on the wheel wiggle and software options. The button pushes are just right. That's hard to describe but it's a nice balance. I don't find myself accidentally pressing a button like previous mice, and they don't take a body builder to press them either. It has a nice soft feel as opposed to the slick/plastic feel of other mice. No annoying lights to blind you as you sleep in the same room. (Last mouse had that, wound up aiming the back of it away or placing something behind it each night. This was a MS Intellimouse)

Cons: The cord is a bit shorter than previous mice I've owned, so it's a stretch to get it to where it needs to be. (Length 1.5m) I have short USB extension cables that should fix the issue. But my PC is on the left, mouse on right pass two flat screen montiors. If your PC's on the right near your feet, this shouldn't be an issue for you. The front of it (where the right/left click buttons are) is narrow. Much more so than any of my previous mice. So that takes getting used to. A previous reviewer said it had all the button features you could want, that is far from the truth. Using the Gigabyte software you are very limited. Only the obvious back/forward and a few other options are avaialble. Roughly 9 options for each button, and they are the same 9 for each button. No special functions avaialble for certain buttons.

Overall Review: I fixed the lack of button features by finding software that let me reassign the mouse buttons to anything, even a sequence of key strokes. You can get this free software by Googling for "X-Mouse Button Control". It even offers "layers" which let you toggle between 5 different presets of button configs. You can also set up mouse configs based on programs, for me this means easier time setting up the mouse with all my games and other programs (like Photoshop) with out having to redo everything to match the mouse. Some complained about the light weight, just Google "M6800 weight" and the first result for me was from Hexus.net and they show step by step modding with pictures. I never owned a gaming mouse, so going from 800 to 1600 was different. My advice is make 1600 your normal use speed, and toggle to 800 in game when you need fine movements (like sniping). If you haven't had a mouse this shape before and tend to pick it up while gaming, this will take a bit of getting used to

Pros: So far I have used this mouse for some gaming (Assassin's Creed and Orange Box) and for some internet browsing. I have to say that for the price this mouse is very impressive. Love the dpi switch.

Cons: None

Overall Review: For this price, I decided to finally upgrade from my old 6 or 7 year old Logitec Black wheel mouse and I'm glad I did. This one is far superior. I don't understand the complaints about the weight because this one is heavier than my logitec and any of the other mice I have encountered in my job aside from the wireless which have batteries. Newegg is a great source for new hardware and I always seem to find what I need here. So far, nothing I have ordered from Newegg has arrived damaged. From OEM processors to motherboards and memory to this mouse.

Pros: Cheap, comfortable, good budget mouse

Cons: This thing **cannot** handle fast acceleration, the 800/1600 dpi on this thing is useless. For everyday purposes, this mouse is fine, but for FPS gaming, when you need to swipe the mouse across very fast, this thing twitches and can't handle fast swipes at all.

Overall Review: Not a gaming mouse as advertised, but for every day purposes, this mouse is a great value. Just don't buy it for FPS gaming. For games like Starcraft, it works fine.

Pros: Cheap

Cons: I've had it less than 2 months and it just started sending double clicks when I single click.
