and if you text on ur phone you'll be a step ahead on learning to use ur thumb for ur action bars. its not nearly as big as the pics make it out to be, its actually about the same size as a normal gaming mouse. my neighbor has had one for over a year, and while when i first used it, it was kinda confusing, but after a lil while it was SOOOO much easier. if it breaks or malfunctions, its replaced. atleast with those you get good craftsmanship along with a no BS warranty. when i took the old one apart prior to tossing it, its nothing but cheap thin plastic, cheap single access mouse buttons (hence the sticking) and the LED wires were poorly soldered as they had broke (hence the LEDs going out) Ill never buy nor even touch the steelserries crap again. So yeah i trashed it and went back to my Logitech G5 that is 4 years old, and still works and looks as good as the day i bought it along with just being more responsive. the reply i got was that even tho it all happened within 6mo of purchase all the problems were considered by them as normal wear and tear and therefor not covered by the warranty. and then i sent steelserries a email about the warranty because well i expected more from a expensive mouse(it was at the time). but i kept usin it, then only a few days after the LEDs went out the left mouse button would randomly get stuck. that kinda erked me as i had it set to the color scheme of my computer. it was awesome at first, but after about 3 mo the finish started to "rub" off showing dull white plastic underneath, kinda disapointing but not a deal breaker so i kept using it, bout a month after that the LEDs went out. x3 I can barely reach the D-pad with my thumb. I can't speak for the new one!Īcherontia wrote:I have the original, but I've never used any other gaming mouse so all I can compare it to is the original 2-button. The lighting effects and feel of the mouse are nice, it's accurate, comfortable, you can choose the glow color/pulse settings, it has a lot of buttons and it's got a nice weight-oh, and it's durable too. My hand cannot cover the entire mouse even if I stretch it. I have small hands, and the way I hold it, my thumb rests on the side d-pad, rendering it useless for binds (as I'd constantly be accidentally pressing them simply by moving the mouse). It's a largish mouse, I'd say definitely built for a man's hand. It's a simple thing to go into your Interface and tick "Find WoW Gaming Mouse," but sometimes you won't see the error, go into arena/bgs and wonder why on earth none of your binds are working! I have the original, but I've never used any other gaming mouse so all I can compare it to is the original 2-button.īe aware that when you keybind things with this mouse (again, dunno bout the new one, just the original!), you will sometimes get error messages upon login that the "World of Warcraft gaming mouse could not be found" etc.
