Review on SteelSeries Rival 3 Gaming Mouse - TrueMove Core Optical Sensor up to 8,500 CPI - 6 Programmable Buttons - Split Trigger Buttons - Vibrant Prism RGB Lighting by Ada Smyk ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

A useless product, its not worth the money.

Choose either G102 or this mouse as your target. This mouse was advertised and sucked on everything from all different angles, and I grabbed it because of the laudatory reviews that other bloggers had given it (health to them in all organs!). As a consequence of this, I decided to purchase it because it has a cool lighting system, fascinating exterior design, and is modifiable. It retains fingerprints exceptionally well, even at the very first contact, much like a gloss surface does. The plastic has an odd feel to it, suggesting that there was some sort of spraying campaign. Then, after two days of work, a paint creak appeared. This paint creak cannot be removed in any way (blowing on it, moving the button, etc.), and it is extremely annoying. Perhaps I have experienced anything similar, but the creak of the button after two days of use (and solely for work; I haven't used it for games at all), this is excessive, especially for 3 kilograms. There is a used Jenius mouse available for three hundred dollars; hence, using it is a lot more pleasurable. I am quite dissatisfied with the mouse, and I was wondering if I could get my money back or exchange it for a new one.

Pros
  • Looks excellent, good backlight, appears like a good sensor (didn't play)
Cons
  • After only two days of use, the left-hand melee weapon (LMB) started making a horrible creaking sound, which is absolutely intolerable and irritates me. Plastic does not have a pleasant feel to the touch and is notoriously difficult to clean. It also attracts fingerprints and makes it difficult to remove them.
