A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

In general, the mouse is solid, its money is definitely worth it. Now I'm thinking about acquiring a wireless one and I've run into such a problem that almost all top manufacturers of mice make them carelessly. Switches are put by Chinese omrons allegedly for 50 million. of which, God forbid, 5 will work. For Logitech, double click seems to be already akin to the slogan of the company. The rubber bands for everyone are peeled off or even worse wiped. So for now I settled on the option without them and with replaceable switches (asus rog chakram).
: I forgot to write about the setup program, but this is only because 1 time when I connected everything was set up there as I needed and forgot about it. All manufacturers have approximately the same usefulness of these programs.

Pros

I have been using this mouse for two years now. No defects were found, except for one minor (about him in the shortcomings). I hope it continues to do so. Comfortable shape for my 19cm palm and volar/finger grip. Very useful paddle/shift button peeped from roccat. Allows you to set a second action for any button. But I use it only on LMB and RMB, because. the side buttons with the petal clamped are inconvenient to press. A cool feature with adjustable stiffness of the rotation of the wheel, to whom it is convenient and put. The sensor in almost all mice is above 5 thousand. after 2022 it can't be bad, so everything is like all good mice. The assembly is of high quality, nothing backlash and does not creak so far. The elastic bands on the sides may not have the right relief (the fingers are just horizontal and ride on them like on rails), but not a drop has been erased and it is convenient to clean them.

Cons

The only negative that I can name so far after a year of use: sometimes you need to press harder to trigger the pressure on the wheel. I don’t know exactly what this is connected with, because. To disassemble the mouse, you need to tear off the legs. And it makes no sense to install new ones yet, because the old ones have not been erased almost either (I drove qck on a fabric carpet). There are no problems with scrolling up and down yet, but judging by the previous experience (rival 300 and deathadder 2022) they may appear after 2 years of use. It depends on the encoder, which again cannot be seen here, but mb there is info on the internet. I suspect that due to the wheel stiffness adjustment mechanism, with frequent wheel changes, problems would have appeared earlier. But I very rarely used it, left it on almost the softest mode (for jumping in the cs)
