Detailed video review:

SVEN GX-990 Gaming

The design is original and impressive - the device is large and quite rigid, despite the soft coating. But the filling is slightly different from most similar gaming mice, but the Sven GX-990 still deserves close attention.

Despite its large size and heavy weight, it fits comfortably in your hand and does not distract you while playing games. It moves freely on the mat without hanging up and is easy to control. The wheel scrolls without problems, but it is impossible to lose control over it. And all this, combined with a loyal price, makes it especially attractive for novice gamers.

There are 12 buttons on the side panel, each of which can be customized. They are located at different angles so that the player can find what he needs by touch.

Unboxing, testing and video review:

Logitech G Gaming Mouse G300s

The deep black color without any plastic inserts in combination with the soft touch coating definitely stands out for those users who pay special attention to the appearance of the device and love the classics. Side inserts add ergonomics and convenience to the model during active use.

The sensor works flawlessly. Moreover, it is not at all necessary to buy a rug for it, since it works no less well on the “bare” surface of the table. Manufacturers promise that even with active use, the Teflon legs will last for almost three hundred kilometers of movement.

Price: from 2500 rubles.

SteelSeries Rival 100

Not every gaming mouse manufacturer offers such a wide color palette as SteelSeries. Many gamers appreciated the bright colors and laconic design of the Rival 100. Despite the minimal equipment, the characteristics of the mouse more than make up for this shortcoming.

It has a monolithic shape - the buttons do not stand out on the body. The surface is glossy, but at the same time resistant to scratches and fingerprints. Works great both on a mat and on a table surface. But this model’s Teflon legs are a little capricious, so it’s preferable to use a mat. The controls are quite tight, this is done in order to avoid accidental clicks during the game.

From 3050 rubles.

SteelSeries Rival 100 Mouse

Fits securely in your hand.
The size and weight are perfect for gaming.
Minimalistic but vibrant design.
Intuitive software.

The back is quite raised for a comfortable hand position. The appearance is classic, without sophistication or unusual design solutions. The buttons, both on the side and on the body, feel easy, press without problems and softly, without falling into the body. Rubber inserts on the body allow you to better feel the device and control it more efficiently.

Cost: from 2900 rubles.

ASUS ROG GX860 Buzzard Mouse

Soft pleasant lighting.
The laser sensor works flawlessly.
The hand does not get tired even from hours of gaming.
Instant response to manipulation.

There are often cases when the wheel begins to work incorrectly over time.
The mouse clicks are loud and ringing - not to everyone's taste.

Razer DeathAdder Elite Black

The high coefficient of grip of this gaming mouse with the hand is due to the coating of the body - it is matte, but not rough, but smooth. At the same time, it does not slip or fall out and ensures comfortable use for a long time.

The rubberized scroll wheel is smooth, but not quiet. The presses are soft, but at the same time confident. The legs of the model are located in an unusual way - not at the back on the sides, but at the front and back in wide stripes. Therefore, the glide is excellent, and the legs promise to last a long time. The quality of tracking the trajectory of cursor movement is an order of magnitude higher than that of most models in the same price segment.

Price: from 6700 rubles.

Razer DeathAdder Elite Black Mouse

Mice for games and more: price tag up to 1000 rubles

There are many modifications of mice, or, if you prefer, manipulators for a variety of purposes on the market. These can be both wireless and wired solutions with a laser or optical sensor for the office, as well as mice for entertainment - in particular, for games. There are also universal mice with decent characteristics and bright designs, but this does not mean that you will necessarily have to pay a lot of money for a high-quality device with a good response.

Indeed, often the cost of a manipulator increases due to the brand and the originality of the design; the cost and filling also greatly influence the cost. But if you are not a professional gamer or designer, then you have no need to pay more, because even for games, the “rate of fire” of the mouse is more important than the accuracy of the sensor positioning. There are quite attractive options in terms of price/quality ratio (if you look, of course), and we have prepared a review of the most affordable, but nevertheless interesting solutions costing up to 1000 rubles.

The Sven brand is known to us primarily for inexpensive but high-quality acoustics for TVs and PCs. However, it produces a wide variety of products, including mice. A prominent representative of the budget line of manipulators is the GX-970 Gaming model. The prefix at the end of the name immediately makes it clear what this device is intended for.

Like any self-respecting gaming mouse, the Sven GX-970 Gaming has a wired USB connection. A stable connection means a quick response, especially since the sensor here is optical, and the resolution is 2000 dpi, which is quite enough for most fans of modern action games.

There is also no need to worry about RPGs and strategies. The device has seven customizable keys, among which it is worth noting the dpi switch button, as well as an additional left key (for example, for quick recharging). Features include a two-meter connection cable, a touch pad, an ergonomic two-color body and backlight. The disadvantage is the hard plastic case without rubber inserts, but the device fits perfectly in the average hand and weighs an acceptable 140 g. This miracle costs only 780 rubles, which automatically compensates for any minor design flaws.

Just fifteen years ago, in every third home you could find films on CDs produced by SmartBuy. Everything is changing, and the era of laser disks has practically disappeared into oblivion, but the Taiwanese manufacturer has survived and currently produces not only hard drives, but also computer peripherals. As before, these are products of decent quality at an affordable price. The SBM-701G-K mouse was no exception.

The model cannot be called a gaming model, although it may well be suitable for games (though without claims to high performance). But the mouse attracts attention with its stylish high-tech design and bright blue backlight.

There is also a wired USB connection here, with the wire length being 1.6 m. The sensor is an optical LED with a resolution of 1600 dpi. For ease of control, there are six programmable keys. Disadvantages include light weight (115 g), cheap plastic, and a cutout in the front part of the case, which makes it seem like the mouse is bound to get caught on something. SmartBuy SBM-701G-K costs 807 rubles, which is slightly more than the Sven GX-970 Gaming, but you have to pay for the stylish design.

Zalman is known for its cooling systems and computer cases. In addition, the South Korean company produces power supplies, acoustics, keyboards and mice, and also produces pretty good thermal paste. The ZM-M400 mouse is convincing proof that you don't have to pay a lot for brand and quality.

The main feature of this wired mouse is the wide base and the characteristic bend of the left side of the body with an inclination to the right, thanks to which the device fits in the hand like a glove. As in the case of SmartBuy SBM-701G-K, the gadget is aimed at the general public and has an aggressive design, which, however, does not prevent it from fitting harmoniously into both home and office environments.

Like the competitor described above, the mouse has six programmable keys, backlighting, a 1600 dpi optical sensor and comes in a black body. It should be noted that this is quite a weighty companion (220 g). Perhaps the only drawback is the large height of the device, which is not entirely convenient for small female hands, but the weight, design and color of the Zalman ZM-M400 indicate what this mouse is primarily intended for. The cost is a pleasant surprise - only 744 rubles.

Oklick is the Russian-Chinese brainchild of the large domestic distributor Merlion, which works according to the now popular principle: we collect in the Middle Kingdom, sell in Russia. The company's peripherals are quite good.

725G DRAGON is a fairly large wired (cable length 1.5 m) mouse with an original design corresponding to the name: if you are disgusted by the high-tech design of the SmartBuy SBM-701G-K, the brutality of the Zalman ZM-M400 and are not satisfied by the price of the Sven GX-970 Gaming, then you should pay attention to this decision.

In addition, there is not just an optical sensor, but a 2400 dpi sensor, and this is already an application for a good “rate of fire”. At the same time, the weight of the mouse is optimal - 124 g. Among the disadvantages are only five customizable keys (the side ones shamelessly stick out, so sometimes you involuntarily press them) and the plastic case is not the best. However, for 683 rubles you will only find analogues whose characteristics are much worse.

The Chinese brand Delux, like all more or less decent companies from the Middle Kingdom, offers inexpensive but high-quality products with outstanding characteristics.

The M612 model is a prime example of this: starting from the color differentiation of the case and ending with an optical sensor of up to 4000 dpi. In stock - a fairly high-quality backlight, a 1.6-meter cable and six programmable buttons. At the same time, the weight of 155 g, as well as the resolution, directly indicate the directionality of the mouse.

Yes, this solution with appropriate ergonomics (there are even foam inserts) is designed to satisfy the needs of a gamer who is ready to buy a fairly fast manipulator with the change from the boxed version of a top shooter. This miracle of Chinese (honestly stolen) engineering costs 916 rubles.

A4Tech is a Chinese company that has quietly existed on the Russian market for a good 26 years and offers exclusively computer peripherals. We can’t say anything bad about the quality of the products (as a rule, the manufacturer uses high-quality material for production): the company’s products have a discreet (but not stolen from anyone and is easily recognizable) design, and A4Tech mice run for a long time.

The X-710BK model reflects the essence of this brand. This looks like an office mouse, but at the same time a gaming one, thanks to its classic design and 2000 dpi optical sensor resolution. The gaming orientation of the product is indicated by seven programmable short-travel buttons, as well as the gadget’s weight of 135 g and fairly compact dimensions. One of the features is the ability to adjust the USB frequency from 125 to 1000 Hz. Like the models described above, there is resolution parameterization here - from 400 to 2000 dpi.

In general, if you need a modest (not screaming to the whole office that you are a gamer) mouse, then the A4Tech X-710BK for 982 rubles is quite suitable - both in terms of performance quality and response. The only drawback is that the connection wire is too thin, the length of which, by the way, is an impressive 1.8 m.

Despite the crisis, for a thousand you can still buy a good mouse for both work and play. If for some reason the “Made in China” label raises any doubts (although nowadays there are fewer and fewer reasons to run headlong from goods from the Middle Kingdom), then you can safely opt for the Zalman ZM-M400: brand, price, design, characteristics - everything is included. Connoisseurs of Sven technology, of which there are quite a few, by the way, can try the GX-970 Gaming - the gaming mouse does not disgrace the music brand, and the design of the gadget will easily fit into any interior.

If you don’t care about the brand and country of manufacture of the device, and the main thing is the price with decent quality, then A4Tech X-710BK is for you. This small “animal” was created for those who value speed rather than appearance. For maximalists who love bright and unusual design, the best choice will be the “rapid-firing” Delux M612. If your motto is: “What the hell are games, there’s no time anyway,” but at the same time you are cunning and don’t mind pampering yourself with casual games, quests and indies, then here they are, your reliable comrades - SmartBuy SBM-701G-K and Oklick 725G DRAGON . True, in the case of the latter you get not only good dpi, but also an unusual appearance.

In general, for a thousand rubles you can not only buy a fairly good mouse, but also choose your own model that meets specific goals and even specific games.

A selection of the best mice for MMOs

ASUS L701 ROG SPATHA is suitable for Dota and Dota 2

This mouse is notable primarily for its unusual design. Judging by numerous reviews, most buyers are delighted with the external design. The beauty is added by high-quality LED lighting, as well as two Rogue logo stickers included.

ASUS L701 ROG SPATHA - 2 in 1 mouse. If you want it, disconnect the wire and play for fun. Has the battery died? Connect USB and continue to engage in gameplay. Interestingly, the kit includes 2 cables: one for 2 meters with braid, and the second - one meter without braid. The sensitivity of the mouse is 8500 dpi, which allows you to be the fastest during online battles.

The mouse has 12 programmable buttons that can be assigned to certain commands in the game. They are located quite conveniently, so with a little practice, you will not click past. But the accessory is not so ideal: many users note that the software does not work correctly, and also complain about numerous problems with control. However, the majority of comments are positive so far.

Xiaomi Blasoul Y720

Now let's turn our attention to the leaders of world progress. The mouse is equipped with 7 keys in total. Basic ones, a wheel and a couple more programmable keys. There are convenient presets, and you can program everything yourself. It’s very nice that they really worked on the placement of the keys. Accidental activations are excluded.

If programmable buttons are not enough for you, the G-shift function is provided. You hold down the additional button and the keys switch to the second value. There are 3 profiles in memory, and for each you can choose your own backlight color, one of 16 million colors. Practical, because you can understand which profile you are in by color, and don’t have to look at the settings.

The lifespan according to test results is 20 million clicks and 250 km of run. Changing sensitivity on the fly allows you to adapt to any gaming situation. A two-meter fabric-braided cable with a USB interface gives a large range of freedom and safety margin.

The visual appearance is classic and restrained. I like it, I'm not a fan of the fancy shape and I don't want to be afraid that my mouse will fly home to Zhelezyaka while I'm sleeping. Based on the criticism, I can say that everything is fine. With large sales, there are quite a few negative reviews and they are based on delivery problems, which are not related to the manufacturer and personal hostility towards Xaiomi. Sometimes they say that the keys are located close. No! You either didn’t see what it was like up close, or you were looking for a regular mouse for office work, but ended up with this model.

COUGAR 600M mouse is a great option for World of Warcraft

Do you love construction sets? Or maybe you prefer to assemble and repair equipment yourself? Well, or you just want to configure it once, but so that everything is perfect and forever. Then this model is right for you.

Control of user convenience is at such a high level that the kit includes three spare parts for the thumb and for the little finger. And not “red, green and blue”, but completely different in shape and material. The wrist part is adjustable in length.

I think this mouse is the perfect gift for its versatility. No matter how lucky the person who gets this model is, he will customize it for himself and be happy. As many as 8 programmable keys. On this mouse they look and are used organically, since the ergonomics adapt to themselves. And besides this there is the ActionLock function. LMB or RMB can be “clamped”. That's great. No more need to wrap a button in duct tape if you want to run from one end of the map to the other. This problem has been resolved.

The software utility for binding keys is not complicated to set up and should not cause any problems. Beautiful lighting to suit your taste – I love things like this. Well, and again – WoW-friendly interface. All MMO mouse manufacturers who want to reach heights focus on this game as the most durable and powerful.

What do we have in terms of unpleasant moments? If you are in Miami, it will not suit you. No, it will never burn out for you. But the mechanism for protecting and accumulating errors is poor. When it overheats, errors fly one after another, the memory becomes full and the mouse crashes, or rather, overloads. If you have such concerns, then immediately say “no” to this purchase. By the way, there hasn’t been a single review from the poles yet, so you can be the first to check the mouse for stress resistance to frost.

Razer Naga Trinity

Every gamer is familiar with Razer products. It is very popular due to its high quality and reasonable cost. The Razer Naga Trinity mouse is no exception. Its highlight is the presence of three replaceable panels included.

The first panel has 12 programmable buttons and is designed for games like WoW, Lineage, etc., where characters have many abilities. The second panel has a wheel with 7 buttons: it is well suited for Dota, LoL and Diablo. The third panel has only 2 buttons and is designed for everyday use.

The overwhelming majority of reviews are positive. On the negative side: people don’t like the wheel, some note the software’s poor compatibility with Mac OS, and a number of users are dissatisfied with the high price of the device.

Logitech G903 Lightspeed Wireless Mouse

This mouse has a symmetrical design on both sides. This means that it is also suitable for left-handers. The accessory is wireless, and the battery life varies depending on whether you use the backlight: up to 24 hours with it, and up to 32 hours without it. Manufacturers came up with an interesting feature and added a so-called weighting agent to the kit. If the mouse seems too light to you, you can attach a part weighing 10 grams to it. It is also noteworthy that it has scrolling not only vertically, but also horizontally.

There is a backlight here, like other accessories. The mouse can operate with sensitivity from 200 to 12,000 dpi. The device has 11 programmable buttons, which is enough for most MMORPG games. Most users note that this mouse may have an accidental double click: that is, you click 1 time, and the computer perceives it as 2 clicks. Also, some gamers remain dissatisfied with the price of the device.
