Very slow response. Please Read Full Review

*** Please read the full review *** Good for general use, NEVER good for gaming. The delay time from the moment the mouse is moved to the moment the cursor moves with stupid slowness. Update 04/29/2019 Since my experience was negative, the company contacted me. They asked if I would like to try one of their other mice, Mirage 2. Mirage 2 is another wireless mouse. It performed better than the M690-1, but I still wouldn't recommend it for gaming. In my answer I thought maybe it was just the wifi causing the lag. Redragon asked me to try another mouse, The Cobra (M711 wired gaming mouse). To my delight, it was actually a pretty good gaming mouse. Having had the opportunity to use the Redragon Cobra mouse for a few days, this is by far the best Redragon mouse I have tried. Overall, it feels good in the hand and, more importantly, offers precise cursor control with no lag. The backlight looks good (even better than my G502). All buttons have a nice positive click. It would be nice if the 3 buttons on top were addressable instead of being fixed to DPI, DPI up, down and backlight. Likewise, I think it's important for a gaming mouse to have custom dpi settings, not pre-programmed ones. For example. For example, I choose 650 instead of 600 for some games. The jump from 500 to 1000 dpi does not let me set it the way I would like it to be. The scroll wheel feels comfortable. The texture of the rubber is great, but I prefer a stronger click when spinning the wheel. To compare it directly to my Logitech G502, I miss the extra buttons that the G502 has. The Cobra is light, but not too light. It glides very well on my mouse pad, maybe even better than my Logitech, but to be honest my Logitech has found many uses. I like the Cobra lighting better. The surface texture of the Cobra feels great on top. I wish the sides were the same. I think the shape on the side of the mouse is more comfortable on the G502, but that doesn't mean the Cobra is bad, it's just that I prefer it. Also keep in mind that the G502 costs three times as much. Most importantly, it offers good gaming experience, lag-free and precise control. This is a product I would recommend. In fact, my son, who also has a G502, asked if he could use a Cobra instead of his mouse. *

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
