Picked up this mouse whilst it was on a sale. Got it about 40% off its retail price.

+Quality of the build is very high.
+Great amount of settings that can be set up for it and tweaks.
++Ie Macros etc
+Feels natural to use.
+RGB although setting effects up can be reasonably tiresome.
++High customization of the lights.

-Main downside: For the Corsair Software, HCI is not fully there. It's a good software but the way you interact with it, can be very difficult. (Might improve in future via updates).
-Huge 165+ page manual.
-Arguably logo, although I don't care about it.

I would recommend the mouse, I feel that the quality and performance far outweigh the disadvantages noted.

I give it about 9/10, only let down by the software although it's not too much of a deal breaker imo. (and maybe logo).

Ack. So glad my K70 is a vengeance and not a "gaming". I agree with the soft ware, its the same sort of software for the K70 right?

Aren't they getting rid of that?

Looks like a nice mouse but I really like ambidextrous mouses more than ergonomic.

They are selling both. The gaming is heavily marketed.

I don't get the point in those long-*** manuals, they come with the K70 RGB keyboard as well (probably all of their other products too). Nobody reads them, should just keep them short with basic info. Nice little review though, good seeing them every now and then.

"gaming" lol logo so ugly.

I personally don't think the logo is what makes a purchase.

I wouldn't sacrifice peformance over the logo which stays under my hand too.

I know but there is no point is changing a logo to market it to gaming when the old logo is 100% better.
