Comment:
feels great & it seems to alleviate some wrist pain from all my gaming. =p the mouse grows on you soon after you get used to it. smooth operating. no offense, but it feels like a person w/ tiny hands created this mouse. the software is good, but could use a couple of adjustments. I'll be keeping an eye out on the evolution of this new style of mouse, it has fantastic future prospective!

as well modest- youngster's toy If you paid retail for this $ 60.00 +you would feel ripped off

Comment:
Provides a vertical mouse position. Left and right mouse buttons operate properly. The scroll wheel button is nearly unuseable, and can't be reprogrammed to be one particular of the other buttons. The grip is tiny and seems developed for a four-year-old's hand size. I use the middle mouse button (the scroll wheel button) all the time, but on this mouse it's very difficult to push because of its area. When I try to push it my thumb is blocked by the horizontal and vertical surfaces that it's tucked into. If the other thumb buttons could be reprogrammed to be middle-click it would be much superior Manufacturer Response:Dear Worth Customer,Thank you for your information and assistance, we will continue to strengthen our items to better serve all our worth buyers.Sincerely,Team Zalman USA

Great design .... It's easy and it works. Also smaller for my construction worker hands. Not comfortable for me.Also button placement was not in my favor More buttons would be good.

- Below ฟ (mouse sale discount), how could I go wrong- Came with a fancy bag that I practically threw out- Very sensitive horizontally- DPI modifying on the fly- Ergonomic - Didn't seem as good vertically- Small small smaller- I mouse on my keyboard tray (extends out partially) and this had quite small breathing room below "ceiling" I'm not a gamer by any stretch, but I figured since I sometimes seem to have mice failing, and it was so cheap, it would serve as a good stand-in until I got a replacement. I truly like thumb scrolling and if it was just a small bigger I would most likely make an effort to get employed to it.

Initial, I have a bit of arthritis in my hands and the way this mouse is configured is so considerably more all-natural to hold than a traditional mouse! Much less pain definite plus. Also I have pretty big hands (size 12 ring) compared to most and I haven't noticed a issue with it being to modest. Have increased stats on a few of my favourite games ;`) Just count on a couple of days of "getting utilized to it" as with any mouse modify...not genuinely a bad factor...just a fact of life. My last mouse had 17 buttons, I would like to see 1 extra button on this one to close out a internet web page as an alternative of possessing to "X" out. Just a believed... I like this mouse a lot! Can't see myself going back to the other 1. I had taken a couple of mice apart in the past to see if I could come up with my own design and needless to say I place them back together. Zalman has built a good piece of equipment right here and saved me the difficulty of developing my personal and I thank them.

When you get utilized to it , its second nature.Less Stress ON ELBOW AND WRIST!!!I'm on the computer system a lot and no additional pains!! As soon as you get employed to it , its second nature. Does take awhile, but I feel its worth it. Believed I fried the mouse. I was flashing firmware on mouse (which it didn't need) and power outage....NOT Good!!! Undesirable TIMING!!! Restarted computer system , no mouse. Unplugged mouse, Purchased A UPS!!!!, plugged in later and it worked!! Good!!!

Originality, hardware based DPI presets. Also modest to fit in my hand, the trigger button sticks, It really feel like I'm going to break it each time I pick it up.The point of shopping for a gaming mouse is to allow you to play much better. An old Macintosh a single button hockey-puck would be far better than this issue. I only paid some ฤ for it and I still feel cheated. BALLS!

Pros are that this mouse does specifically what it sets out to do - sits in your hand incredibly naturally, with the buttons all in really straightforward reach. The modifications produced by the software a extremely essential, specifically in the acceleration area and the speed region. I've got mine on Max of both, and X and Y. I had thought this would be a tricky adjustment, but it's not at all - it's a small troubling removing your hand away from the mouse to type, rather of up and off, but that becomes all-natural really promptly. I'm extremely pleased with this mouse, and will try to use it for most tasks. Installation was a breeze, though Windows doesn't recognize the computer software, and flashes big RED WARNINGS in your face - those are effortlessly taken care of. I appear forward to the next gen of this form of mouse. Constructive cons - scroll button would be better served on the 'foot' of the mouse, rather than the stalk with the thumb driven. My third and fourth fingers are questioning exactly where their triggers are. A pinky button that acts as an 'Enter' important would be grand! The thumb buttons could be placed superior - I could use a button in front of the scroll wheel, and, in particular if it was moved to the foot, in spot of the scroll wheel - yet another missing button could go on a ledge above the thumb to get a knuckle hit.The cord is a bit much - a wireless model will kick it and will have an instant purchaser in me.The pricing is a bit a lot at the recommended ๕.99, although with the recent coupon it's significantly superior. If Zalman wants any ideas on how to move this around a bit to make it a lot far better they can make contact with me - I devote ten hours a day at a laptop or computer for perform and play, so I know my input devices!

Shape is awesome button layout is excellent. The mouse wheel modifications colors depending on what DPI you have set. The thing is also smaller to use. It hurts might hands and I am not a huge person. Would be fantastic if it was twice the size. As it is I can not use it at all.

Comment:
Novel shape. Good tracking. Excellent ergonomics IF it fits your hand (which it will not if you are a man). Also small. I am an adult white male and have a medium sized hand. When I grip the mouse, my pinky dangles off the edge. It fits my wife's hand perfectly. This tends to make it unusable for me.DPI adjustments do not present sufficient alternatives (low is 400 or 600, med 800, 1000, or 1200, and high 1400,1600, or 2000).

Comment:
Great ergonomically, responsive, simple to use a bit smaller, a bit of a studying curve to use Ok, it looks like I contradicted myself, but what I mean is that the layout is great and buttons and wheel are accessible and uncomplicated to use, but the shift in hand position does give you a bit of a studying curve, until you're utilised to it. It is a bit little, but not As well little. My wife loves it, I delight in working with it, one particular of my two boys like it. The other one particular prefers a regular mouse

Comment:
Newegg Value. This factor is way also smaller. I'm a 180 pounds @ 6 foot. I put on large gloves, my hand/fingers are by no signifies "fat". But this factor won't perform for me. My thumb hit each switches at the similar time and hits the scroll wheel. I actually wish I could have attempted to out in a store. I does fit my 12 year old daughter. Not Newegg's fault in any way. Quickly shipping. I'll retain it for the ฤ bucks I paid. Manufacturer Response:Dear Worth Client,Thank you for your input, we will undoubtedly work on improving our future FPS mouse. Thank you.Sincerely,Team Zalman USA

Fantastic value on sale at ླ.99), pretty correct tracking. dpi switch hard to reach in an instant. Large footprint in use. Takes time to adjust from game mouse to this gunmouse. Wish it was a fraction bigger for my hands. Working with primarily forUT4 and some other older FPS games. Requirements much more table space to move around on due to size.

The vertical orientation tends to make this significantly simpler on the wrist for lengthy-term play. The trigger-like buttons and scrollwheel placed for the thumb feel all-natural.The optical sensor in the nose truly implies that you can move huge distances horizontally with quite little hand movement.The pinky rest might be also small for a lot of people to rest their entire pinky, but it keeps the majority of it from dragging on the table. There is a separate rest for the ring finger above that, so the pinky isn't squished by the idle weight of the ring finger. See far more detail in "Other Thoughts". In other words, the intended grip isn't apparent (and not in the docs), but as soon as found, it's rather comfortable. No software for Windows 7 or 64-bit, which signifies that the "programmable" buttons aren't.Zalman tech assistance very first replies don't necessarily apply, and seem generally in bad English.Even with the software, the DPI button is fixed in objective and can't be used for anything else.The forward/back buttons use the side of the thumb and are awkward to use, even following many weeks' working with it.The scrollwheel color relates to the DPI and can't be set separately. The blue fits my setup, but I would favor the DPI associated with the red.The scrollwheel does not allow horizontal scrolling. This is my update, added mainly because it gets more frustrating all the time, largely due to wide-format net pages. I know most gamers don't use horizontal scrolling, but if you don't use it just - don't use it. I use it a lot. Or I would if I had it, and retain operating into complications from missing it.As others have noted, I now find the trigger sticking on. The buttons are poor quality for a It does take a little acquiring utilized to, particularly to be accurate, but that's also the case if you're just going to a larger-dpi mouse than common.I have an average-size hand. The unit initially felt tiny, but I got utilized to it. My hand slouches a lot, so it doesn't take up the entire height like it would on a handgun grip.My pinky rests on the bottom ledge, and my ring finger is on the slanted spot above it. These who felt crushed could have had their pinky on the slanted part. This provides a distinct place for each finger - pinky on the base, ring finger on the slope, other two fingers on the triggers, and thumb on the wheel.Oh, and I decided to stick with the middle DPI to get the blue lighting that matches my keyboard and speedpad...

I truly like this thing. Some people have complained about it being also small but it's not negative. It may well be a little modest but it functions extremely well for me. like other individuals have said it has entirely relieved the discomfort I applied to get in my wrist following gaming for hours. It took me pretty much no time to get utilized to it also. I got it on sale for 20 bucks and totally free shipping. Remarkable. Following getting used it for a even though I would spend more and nonetheless be pleased. Completely none. If you play FPS games get one particular.

Gun grip with triggers, on the fly DPI switching, reacts extremely well, ergonomic and lightweight but feels substantial adequate not to break As well modest of grip, requirements a bigger location than a typical mouse to operate on I can't see an adult man getting comfy with the size of this thing. If the grip were just a tiny taller, I'd feel like I could get a fantastic grip and use this mouse. Demands a significant footprint to perform on...kept possessing to readjust the mouse while on the keyboard tray simply because I couldn't swing this point in the area. Excellent concept, only expense me fifteen bucks on a newegg special, so not feeling also burned.

-Can modify the DPI and the colors modify as well.-Unique than a typical mouse (I had a typical three button mouse from Dell)-6 customizable buttons-In relatively uncomplicated to get to locations-Glides across any surface seriously smoothly-Little location to place your pinky finger considering that you're most likely not going to use it. -DPI settings are gonna throw you off for a day or so, in particular if you've never had a mouse with much more than 1 DPI setting.-A little tiny for my hands, but nothing at all critical. I do not know if I'd have paid full cost for this... (about ๖)But I managed to get it at ย, don't regret it a bit.If I'd have to decide on at full cost, I'd most likely get a Rat5 for around the identical value. But if it's on sale once again, I'd recommend it

Comment:
lots of entertaining to play games on and it was supprisingly all-natural for me to use it even even though you hand is 90 degrees off from your regular "mousing" position. none really I like the on the fly dps switching so i can alter back when i'm carried out gaming.

Comfortable."In-game" programmable buttons. Programmable buttons are a joke only two could truly be utilized. Left and appropriate you wouldn't alter, the scroll wheel is practically impossible to use as a button, and they even incorporate the DPI selector as one particular of the six buttons, Signifies 4 of the six buttons are not going to modify. Programmable choices are Limited.Cable protrudes from the right of the mouse rather than the front, annoying unless your personal computer is on the suitable.Grips will begin to distort with only medium use, then proceed to fall off entirely. Zalman uses low quality adhesive and states that "Excessive force on the grip pads may well trigger the grip pads to distort and detach from the Grip." I did not use "Excessive force" I just laid my hands across it. Scroll wheel button is tricky to press, the bottom and side plastic blocks me from pressing it with ease. From what it sounds like, other individuals making use of this product have all four fingers stacked on each and every other although holding this mouse, this does make the mouse really feel cramped. If you move your pinky to the side, the mouse becomes considerably additional comfortable as well as giving you the capacity of utilizing your pinky as sort of a brake. Careful! This mouse seriously only functions TWO programmable buttons. I had to RMA for the grip challenge. Fast shipping for this method was nice, but this need to have not had to happen in the initial location.The "Reinforced Grips" that Zalman sent to me from the RMA are starting to distort, I will have to RMA once again soon.I also retract what I said in my previous assessment about the mouse automobile shutting off, I found this dilemma was due to a faulty USB extender I was utilizing.General this product is nice for gaming, the two added buttons on the side can be programmed by way of the game controls menu.Mouse is not little but the side buttons are as well close together for my taste.

It is pretty much what I expected. Scroll wheel functions wonderful.This is a pro for Newegg largely - I ordered it Monday morning and got it Wednesday by lunch time. I didn't even click preferred processing. Amazingly Rapidly!I like the thumb buttons but it will take me some time to get use to. As an individual said earlier, it is a tad bit modest, but is not some thing that seriously mind. The laser did not work on my "mouse pad." Though I must say that my mouse pad isn't actually a mouse pad it is just a plastic folder I had laying about. When I clicked to up update the drivers, I wasn't certain which a single to choose. It looked like v1.11 is the most recent but it was in the middle of the choice of three drivers accessible. None of these are actually cons, and nothing worth taking an egg off. I just got it in nowadays. I didn't get a lot chance to play with it yet due to the fact I was on my lunch break. Played about 10 minutes of Battlefield two, and it worked awesome. Very Happy! I can't wait to use this some much more.I'm not a hardcore gamer or anything but I like playing games and have a lot of them. I consider this was worth the get.

Like the ergonomic style hopefully for the relieve of carpal tunneling and wrist twisting dilemma. Like the two trigger buttons. And the innovation of the thumb scroll with a scroll button in thoughts. Wonderful item create by ZALMAN and excellent promotion by ZALMAN. Wish the pinky finger rest plate was far more wider and comfy. The pinky finger area is sort of tight and uncomfortable. Beside that it is great. Appreciate what Zalman innovation product and preserve up the very good function. Zalman create far more promotions, I will surely acquire your product subsequent time and refer it to my family members members.
