Overall this mouse is great for the price. I've had it for almost two weeks and am getting used to it. This is my first true gaming mouse and I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to get a great gaming mouse at a decent price. I've looked at Razer and Logitech as well, but I'm very happy with this one. The sniper button is nice and helps with those zoomed in moments when you need only small movements. Every button is programmable and there are the 3 main DPI settings and you can adjust the sniper button too. Software is easy to use and you can also use hardware mode and save settings to the mouse which is great. Or if you want to skip that and keep the default settings, just plug it in and good to go. The Blue LEDs are not intrusive or very bright and are a nice touch against the black/metal frame. The top texture is smooth while the sides where your fingers are is a bit grainy, but comfortable and keeps your hand in place. My hand would sweat with my old mouse, but I've had no issues with this one. The design of it takes a little getting used to, but comfortable after a few days of use. The cord is braided and is good quality. The kinks are still there from being packaged but not a big deal and I'm sure they will unkink over time. The only problems I've had so far is: 1.) The left and right mouse buttons are a bit more sensitive compared to my older mouse. So I've had a few mis-clicks with the left button, but not a deal breaker. If you are used to a mouse that needs a fair amount of pressure for mouse clicks, this may be too sensitive for you. 2.) The screws on the bottom that hold the weights in place, while a good design, are slightly flawed. When you tighten them, they never seem to hit that "stop" point where it can't go any further. I was placing one of the screw covers back on while trying different weight set ups and must have over-tightened the screw. Suddenly it went from feeling tight to loose, but it won't come off.. can't unscrew it or tighten it.. it just spins in place, so I'm going to have to take it back to the store for a replacement. So overall, it's a fantastic gaming mouse with no major issues. You get what you pay for as they say and for around $60 this is a great gaming mouse.
