402 customers mention268 positive134 negative

Customers are mixed about the quality of the mouse. Some mention that it's a good mouse, but the scroll wheel barely lasted a year. It feels good in the hand and is highly responsive, while others say that the build quality is barely better than that of a Deathadder ripoff. The mouse wheel is of poor quality and eventually sticks or rolls backward. The wire is a bit fragile-looking and might be a weak point in the design.

good comfortable design, and great for gaming
4 Stars
good comfortable design, and great for gaming
We had a Razer mouse for quite a while and all the kids used it for gaming, but over time the left mouse button started having issues. If I wanted to click and drag a file or something from one part of my screen to another, it would often drop the item I was dragging.Finally bought a new one and that issue is gone. New mouse is great. Have noticed a few times that it seems to double click on the left mouse button when I didn't intend for a left click. Hopefully that doesn't become a bigger issue. But for the price, it's the most affordable, and still reliable, gaming mouse you can buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great mouse
Reviewed in Canada on April 30, 2022
I am happy with this mouse - size, weight, shape all great. Side buttons are large and easy to use. Satisfying click sound deserves a separate mention. You don't need to have razer software installed like many claim here, just cancel the installation once it popups and that's it, it won't popup again unless you unplug/plug the mouse. I have 3 razer devices plugged in all the time and I don't have their software installed.

UPDATE after 2 month of use: scroll wheel indeed glitches scrolling to opposite direction
