Overall good, but I expected more, there are disadvantages.

If you don't mind shelling out three to four thousand dollars every year for a device, then by all means, take it. Throughout the first three to six months, there will be no instances of customer dissatisfaction. I decided to replace it with an a4tech x7. The shape is ideal for the hand and the grip. It completely slipped my mind that there was a switch to this mouse.

If you feel that making an investment each year is a waste of time, you should look into other options. I'm going to guess that the problem is the low-quality plastic.

I only agreed to do it because I had faith in HyperX, which, however, turned out to be misplaced. You might reaffirm your belief that you are doing nothing more than paying too much for the brand.

The software is, to put it bluntly, inadequate. It was in March of 2022 when I used it for the last time. In January of 2022, I decided to purchase the mouse. After that time, there have been no adjustments made.

The mouse was the most disappointing of all the peripherals I own, including the HyperX FPS keyboard, the Cloud Alpha headphones, and the QuadCast microphone (there are, of course, questions about the currently exorbitant price for each of these items), but the mouse is, in all honesty, the most important device.

It is unclear how things stand with regard to the warranty given that the retailer maintains that the warranty is only for one year while hyperx provides a warranty for two years. And should we consider this kind of operational wear that occurs throughout the year to be a flaw or a problem?

Pros

At first, it's very exciting to get a new mouse. It fits the hand well, and there are no extraneous parts whatsoever. The software did not install on it; instead, it made a few moves and kept score. It doesn't slide around in your hand, and the feedback is great. Because there aren't many buttons on it, it gives the impression that it will keep working for a very long time. There is no interference from the side buttons, so there won't be any unintentional clicking. It works wonderfully on both the plastic mat and the native HyperX.

Cons

Loud wheel. It starts to creak after about a year of regular use, so give it some time. In addition to this, everything makes creaking noises, and as soon as you pick it up, you have the immediate sensation that you are driving with the assistance of a "ancient cart." Although I never press them, the side buttons do make sound. The noise coming from the mouse wheel is growing worse. The sound is tolerable only if you are using headphones; otherwise, it is quite distracting. This noise will also be heard by the other members of your squad. The PKM algorithm eventually starts to "play." If you have the right grip, you can skip some of the clicks. THE CRACK OF THE WHOLE MOUSE IS THE WORST FAILURE THAT HAS OCCURRED. The moment you place your palm on it, you will be able to hear it loud and clear. This is horror when compared to other works in its genre (regardless of how much you paid for it). In any case, the "Soft touch" coating on my right hand, specifically in the region of the little finger, became scratched and worn away over time. The act of touching at this location now produces an extremely terrible sensation. It almost seems as if it were unclean.
