Incredibile quanto sia leggero! sembra quasi un giocattolo, ma quando lo si inizia ad usare ci si rende conto di quanto nonostante la leggerezza sia un prodotto decisamente premium, sia costruttivamente che funzionalmente. i tasti sono tutti piacevoli da cliccare e ben raggiungibili, il software permette di effettuare tantissime impostazioni in modo da permettere a chiunque di trovare la propria configurazione perfetta.
Un gioiello estremamente versatile, utilizzabile via cavo, via bluetooth o in 2.4 Ghz per prestazioni top.
Bellissimi anche gli effetti di luce.
Assolutamente consigliato!

I had better ones with just 20 euros. It was a very bad choice

My son is very happy with it. Have it for couple of months now. He plays Fortnite everyday and he prefers this mouse over Logitech g pro. Buttons feels much sturdy and it feels nice in the hand. Definitely would recommend! It has great price too compared to the mouse he had before.

Good mouse for the price, very light and easy to use. Connection can be a bit dodgy as at times it’ll just stutter for no apparent reason.

I went through 3 of these mice in a period of 4 months 2 had the exact same problem with the scroll wheel not registering correctly. I will never buy steel series hardware again.

Wireless is now as lag-free as wired, so for me if you find a good mouse and it’s on sale, snipe it. Furthermore, because I also have a heavier mouse that I use in parallel on my work pc, I can tell you that the weight makes a huge difference on how quickly I fatigue during gaming sessions or even work. This is a joy to toss around and it feel like an actual extension of my arm.

This is really worth the money. You I’ll know after u use it I’m a single hand valorant player. I use mouse only to play competitive game after getting this one my game is way better.

Absolutely love this mouse. I’ve had it for a few years now and have had zero issues with it. The wireless function works perfectly and it’s super lightweight.

If you are looking for a light mouse this might be a good fit for you! I’ve been using this for fps games and it feels great in my hand and moving it. The response time is quick, Steelseries also has a lot of customisation in software and it being wireless with low latency is just great. Oh… And uh… I threw it at the wall multiple times and it’s still standing strong. Idk what kind of plastic they use but it is durable af.

Nice mouse but the battery drains quite easily

In many ways, I want to like this mouse. I use it daily for work, and it has several features I appreciate: lots of programmable buttons (customizable via firmware, so no need for dedicated drivers), a fast-charging Li-ion battery, dual connectivity (Bluetooth and proprietary wireless), and a solid yet lightweight build.
However, there are some drawbacks. It only supports one Bluetooth pairing, is difficult to clean inside and the USB-C charging port is recessed so deeply that bulkier connectors can’t reach it.
All of that would be tolerable if it were reliable. But I’m giving it a one star because this is now the second unit I’ve owned where the scroll wheel starts to jumping in the opposite direction after about a year. A quick online search shows I’m far from the only one facing this issue. When I received the replacement in November 2024, I hoped the problem had been resolved. Unfortunately, it was not. It’s baffling that a €100 mouse can have such a glaring flaw, especially when my €8 no-name Chinese mouse from a decade ago still works perfectly.
Unless the manufacturer addresses the scroll wheel issue, I can’t recommend this product for long-term use.

Nice, light, and great ergonomics

The mesh design holes allow dust and stuff to settle inside the mouse. Also if you spill water on the mouse that could potentially kill it. Battery life is good! 4/5 would recommend as middle of the road gaming mouse.
