Review: - the mouse depends on an app. that needs to be ran on startup - the app requires sign up and is a combination of 4 or more mini apps including audio related apps that you can choose to disable but will have to remain installed - when you start your computer the mouse will begin cycling through full brightness rainbow colours as its default setting before your custom profile is launched. mouse doesn't retain its settings on actual mouse - the mouse has a ton of settings which is nice. then doesn't allow for sub 100 increment whole numbers when choosing your DPi. I found 1700 slightly too slow. then 1800 a bit fast with no middle ground. but then you can adjust the acceleration and slow down to dial it in. just takes a little more time - the 5 side buttons are great with all the options to set them as anything you would need. although one of the buttons is ergonomically a bit awkward being a paddle button that activates with an upwards click and will literally have you lifting the mouse from the table to use it all in all a decent mouse. worth the price having bought it in the xmas discount period
Review: Sometimes it disconnects and take like 20 seconds to reconnect for no reason

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is i have apex pro tkl can i use same dongle to connect or do i need them all to have own dongle?**
A: I'm pretty sure you have to use their own dongles

**Q: what about sensitivity in this mouse?**
A: I didn't have a problem with it but I switched to the corsair Sabre pro champion series mouse. Better in my opinion.

**Q: I have an aerox 3 wireless how does this compare to that is it worth the upgrade or is it a downgrade?**
A: Only difference is it has more buttons than the aerox 3 and less than the aerox 9.

**Q: Is the dpi button easier to reach than the rival 600 was?**
A: I’ve always forced my mouse to use only one dpi setting at 800. Depends on your hand I guess. For me I feel like my index finger has to struggle a little bit to have to push it which is why I never bothered.

*by R***L on 21 January 2026*

An sich ist die Maus wirklich gut und liegt angenehm in der Hand. Allerdings erwartet man bei diesem Preis auch entsprechende Qualität und Langlebigkeit. Leider scheint es bei vielen Mäusen dieser Reihe früher oder später Probleme mit dem Mausrad zu geben. Bei mir ist das Scrollrad nach einiger Zeit defekt: Während des Scrollens wechselt die Richtung im Sekundentakt, wodurch ein gezieltes Scrollen praktisch unmöglich wird. Sehr ärgerlich und in dieser Preisklasse absolut enttäuschend...
