I'm beginning to suspect my MS Intellimouse Explorer that I've had since the original UT days is getting a bit unresponsive on occasion. Hence I've order a Steelseries Kinzu v3 because it seemed reasonable and a familiar shape.

If I wasn't totally satisfied with it and decided to go with something more expensive what would you recommend or what do you personally like?

Logitech may be ugly but they are really comfortable and the functionality is great. If only the build quality wasn't utter wank. They do have a really good returns policy, probably because they have so much practise.

Ah, they must all be flawless then, if you have never had a problem with one.

My Logitech mouse (M310 iirc) has been fine, 3 years old now and still works a charm.

The keyboard that came with it is fucked though, with a spacebar that doesn't work - a slight issue.

I've got a wireless G602 mouse and K350 wireless keyboard, both work just fine.

Looking at the Razer Deathadder Elite now. Quite tempted. My Steelseries is nice but I've a feeling there are better out there.

Anyone got a Deathadder?

I've got a Razer Deathadder. It's great. Not much more to say.

Perfect timing.

Knew there was a reason I'd been avoiding wireless mice... until now??


Great vid, do similar RF testing in aircraft for TPED Compliance. Issue with the testing is that the only reason it beats wired mouse is the polling rate. No way that pathing is quicker over RF vs wired. The added processes of turning that signal into wireless digital messages and translating it back again at the PC end will always add time. Great mouse, but will be beaten by the next gen wired versions.

Also, not that special that they have overcome the RF interference issues, beamforming wireless has been around a while.
