    That is a nice looking mouse... appeals to my tastes, and is just the kind of device i like, functional, clean lines, easy to hold, no blocky angles. I reckon i might try one of these next time i need a new mouse.

    Yeah also a nice optical sensor, rgb lighting to match any setup, ambidextrous so will work for lefties and just the right amount of buttons.

    Sometimes the budget models are better.

    Indeed, my Sharkoon Drakonia has been immensely good and I reckon about the same price. Shame about the paint job..

    Ah finally a candidate to replace my ageing Razer Diamondback. Clean, functional looks, decent price tag ... I just hope the software isn't mandatory.

    Fingers crossed does not fail on durability and no dodgy software as a service nonsense.

    Acceptable aesthetics and reasonable price. That's a good start. Shortlisted for next mouse.

    Looks like I've finally found a replacement for my very trusty Trust Easyclick. Gaming mouse thats just functional enough, that doesnt look ugly as sin and at a reasonable price. I reckon I'll have to pick one of these up sometime soon.

    I might actually buy this one. I was looking for something that doesn't cost as much as a motherboard

    Ambi-mice are always so dull. Even the Roccat Kova half-sucks in that department.
    Can they not just flip the design specs and make a small quantity of Lefty versions of existing mice? I'm sure there are a few Lefties that would love to have a G700S or something...
