SteelSeries Rival 5 Gaming Mouse with PrismSync RGB Lighting and 9 Programmable Buttons – FPS, MOBA, MMO, Battle Royale – 18,000 CPI TrueMove Air Optical Sensor - Black

This is the best mouse for the price point, but it's not perfect.Pros:-Great brand-Solid construction-Great price-Enough productivity/macro buttons for average gamingHaving the two side buttons, and a re-programmable center button is really nice for a variety of tasks. When I used to play MOBA games it was nice to have a couple keys mapped there, but now that I am primarily working with the mouse I map Enter and Delete. The buttons have a nice tactile press, and hold up quite well.Cons:-A bit on the small side, acceptable for claw grip on larger hands.-Not Mac or Linux native friendly (you can still customize it)-Hard to clean/upkeepThis is the second time I've purchased a SteelSeries Rival mouse, as the first one became impossible to maintain after about 6 years of use. In my case, dust that managed to sneak into the mouse wheel area was impossible to remove without disassembly. After fixing that issue, the left mouse button's contact never quite lined up.

Light weight and reliable, definitely could take a wall or two..

Works great with my current build, awesome quality and feels really nice in the hand, does not have wireless connectivity or Bluetooth unfortunately, but the cable is more than long enough and provides good room for mouse movements

Watched a bunch of reviews. It was a toss up between this and the Logitech 502 series. I really like my previous SteelSeries 310 mouse but I wanted just a few more buttons on the mouse so I gave SteelSeries another shot.Quality wise i have no complaints. Most of the negative reviews remark on the three extra added buttons being hard to use. While i agree the forward thumb button requires me to move my thumb forward a few millimeters, its not impossible or uncomfortable to use. The up and down thumb bumper is a great addition tho. The downward motion is very intuitive. The up motion is a little less but still completely functional.I use it to play FPS games mainly. Stuff like Tarkov, Squad and a few MMO type games and the three extra buttons are exactly what i was looking for.I noticed one thing that is odd to me. In game my aim is fine. Firing isnt affected at all but outside of games doing stuff for example navigating the UI or even using windows itself, its not uncommon that i click on something but the moment of my left clicking causes the mouse to move and drags the cursor off the button/tab/item which in many instances negates the click in the first place. Doing things like closing windows or clicking a menu item in a games UI doesn't work because the click is canceled by my cursor dragging off the button before releasing. Again its very odd because it doesn't seem to affect me in game and i do believe the mouse is activating but just dragging the mouse before releasing causes it to cancel out. Its less of an issue as i get use to using the mouse but something i definitely noticed.All in all i like the mouse and will be keeping it and continuing to suppose Steel Series as i feel like my original favorite peripheral company Logitech definitely feels like they have fallen off in quality and user experience while at the same time become more expensive.

Nice
