OMEN by HP Photon Wireless Gaming Mouse with Qi Wireless Charging, Programmable Buttons, Custom RGB, E-Sport DPI (6CL96AA)

This is a good mouse, and so far I have used it well.

Solid mouse, quick response but its not QI friendly. I bought this mouse specifically for its wireless charging because I have a QI charge pad. IT DOES NOT CHARGE ON THE PAD. Disappointed because thats the main reason I bought this mouse. Unless you buy its specific charge station, its not wireless charge. For those who dont mind a wire charge, its a good buy. But if your like me and bought this specifically to avoid wire charging, keep looking gamer.

This is an excellent accessory for anyone who has as HP Omen computer -- or for anyone, really. The Omen control software does a great job, and having the charging pad on it is a great help.

Everything is perfect, I dont use the side buttons very much, but theyre a great feature

Just what I wanted and looks amazing!

Bought the HP Omen set back in June 2020. Its now mid-April 2021 and the mouse is giving me headaches. Unless its connected by wire, it skips, lags, slows down randomly and altogether fails at some points. Its a shame given how customisable and comfortable the mouse is. I will be switching from this $100+ mouse to something around the $20 range. Time and time again quality products fail on me, while their inexpensive counterparts continue to blow my mind away

The overall look of the mouse is very impressive..

seemed great a t first but it has random periods where it has major lag. Seconds of lag. Its really ridiculous. It seems to occur less often if the mouse is plugged in to USB but it does still occur. I have tried this on multiple computers running win 10 and win 11 and it acts exactly the same on all of them. It doesnt matter fi the usb plug-inis inches or feet away from the mouse. Worthless.

So my ONLY complaint about this otherwise awesome mouse pad is the description. In the description (at least at the time I write this review), one of the bullet points is Qi wireless charging - Charge your wireless gaming mouse and Qi-enabled devices such as smartphones while you play The key words I read there, and lets see if others think the same, was the While you play. So here I am thinking, Oh wow, so this pad can keep my wireless mouse charged while I play! Awesome! So I ordered this as a bundle with the HP Omen mouse, which has yet to be shipped (thanks, COVID), excited that I can finally ditch the cord and game for long bits of time without having to worry about the mouse dying in the middle of a tense gaming moment. Unfortunately, when I unboxed the pad, I found that this mouse pad only has a small charging spot for devices, with room enough for one device to sit on. It does work. My phone is charging on it as we speak. But my hopes of having an actual pad surface that keeps a mouse charged DURING gaming again went up in smoke. So I am now back to knowing there are no pads like that out there. Still, thinking this was the first pad that could do that, I bought it, and I am still somewhat okay with the purchase. While my main purpose was the expectations I ranted about above, the pad itself IS a very nice pad to have. Its HUGE, so do NOT expect this to be a portable hard surface you can pack with your laptop and take with you. You will NOT be doing that. But for at home on a desk or table, this pad provides a large, nice surface to play on. It also lights up nicely and with the HP Omen software can be customized on the lighting. I do have to point out that if you do not have the matching wireless mouse to go with this pad, and end up using a corded mouse, the cord WILL catch on a device you might have charging while you are moving the mouse around. So the wireless charge spot is only useful if you use this with a wireless mouse. I will not be wireless until Amazon ships the mouse I ordered with this. Would I recommend this pad? YES! I actually would. I just wanted to write this review to let readers know in detail NOT to expect a surface that charges your wireless mouse while you play, as the description leads you to believe. Cheers.

This mouse is really smooth and pretty balanced as far as weight goes. I was able to balance the mouse on my finger pretty much dead center so the weight distribution isnt front nor back heavy, its just balanced. The part I really like though is the modularity of this mouse. Dont like side buttons? well take them out! dont like the guards on the sides? remove them! everything is so easy to customize to the way you like it! Wireless charging is also a nice touch since it doesnt have the crazy battery life that other, more normal mice have, you can spend 100 dollars on hps charging pad or you can just get a qi, wireless charging mousepad on amazon for cheaper and just charge it when youre not using it.
