SteelSeries Sensei 310 Gaming Mouse - 12,000 CPI TrueMove3 Optical Sensor - Ambidextrous Design - Split-Trigger Buttons - RGB Lighting, Black

Left mouse button missing clicks since I got it, but gradually worsening. Rubber grips falling off. I paid about 50 bucks for it when I got it and I feel like I got ripped off. I cant imagine paying the 90 it is at now.

I use my computer to an unhealthy degree, and I use my mouse almost constantly. My old mouse was a SteelSeries that held up for a long time, and this one has been doing great as well. I like the simple design and extra buttons. Ive had a minor issue with the software changing the color of my mouse LEDs even when I dont want it to, but it doesnt impact useability, just sort of annoying. The only real downside is that the padding on the sides will slough off of the mouse given enough use, but its not a big deal for me either.

I really like this mouse. I have only one issue which I am not sure if I can hold it against the mouse or myself. I have noticed after a few hours of gaming my wrist did start to hurt a little. I dont know if it was the way I was holding the mouse or positioning my wrist. I gave the mouse 4 / 5 stars because of this. My reasoning is that I am 31 years old, and I have been PC gaming since I was 10 years old and never once have I ever experienced my wrist feeling sore after a few hours of gaming. So.... I blame the mouse slightly and also myself getting old. Anywho... The mouse feels great is responsive and quick. I recommend this product and I really enjoy using it. I love the colors and look of the RGB lighting. I highly recommend downloading the steel series software to maximize this product.

I absolutely adore this mouse. I was skeptical about the triggers based on the screenshots, but they feel really nice. The sensor feels amazing and this is coming from a Razer Deathadder 2014 edition. The mouse is very light as well. I play all types of games with this mouse, but this mouse would definitely be most suited for first person shooters. The shape is very nice. One thing that could turn people off is the material of the device. To keep the device so light, Steelseries had to use a mostly plastic construction. As a result, this thing feels cheaply built. The plastic does feel nice though, its smooth on the top and has grippy rubber pads on the sides. It does not come with a gold plated USB unfortunately. While it doesnt do much, it does allow the port to last longer through multiple insertions since gold is malleable. The cable is also a light, thin non-braided cable. Its very weightless and it might not be for everyone, but I do not mind. Steelseries Engine seems to be decent software, you can adjust many settings for the mouse.

Overall for large hands, this is a great mouse that functions as it should for a low priced gaming mouse. My only issue with the mouse is that the rubber pads on both sides are starting to unstick form the mouse less than a year after I purchased it. I am going to have to look into gluing it with something better than it came with. But overall, a great buy.

Love the design and functionality of the mouse, but beware that you cannot save macros to the onboard memory. Suppose you want to make one of the buttons do a macro thats not predefined, then youll need to be running SteelSeries Engine for it to work. Logitech, on the other hand, has a fantastic utility for their gaming mice that allows you to configure and store to onboard memory (OnboardMemoryManager), and it works for all functions including macros and lighting.

While my search for the perfect mouse continues, the Rival 310 is close in a lot of regards for what Ive been looking. Im generally on my computer for 10+ hours a day, where my work is mouse-heavy at times and my playtime is gaming. My goal has been to find a mouse that works well whether Im on the clock or off since switching mice out is a pain. Ive owned many different makes of mice, most recently being the G502 Proteus Spectrum(

When I got this mouse, I was questioning whether or not it was a good decision. However, all fears were allayed when I actually used the thing. On a SteelSeries mousepad, it is very smooth and accurate. The customization software was easy to work with and straightforward. The scroll wheel moves in firm increments, good for cycling through weapons. :) The dpi settings are above and beyond what I need, but theyre pretty impressive anyway. The finger buttons are wonderful. The side buttons are helpful especially when gaming. The grips on the side are very comfortable and show no signs of falling off. I would say this mouse is groovy. Hope potential buyers read this.

PROS: Nice balanced mouse that is left handed friendly. Buttons and scroll wheel feel good, mouse isnt too light. Tracks well with cloth or hard surfaced mouse pads. CONS: Only 2 DPI settings can be stored. Mouse cord sometimes catches on things. Software is decent but has a small learning curve. I am left handed so my choices for gaming mice is a lot smaller. For years I was using GSkill Ripjaws mouse. Its a good, ambidextrous mouse with various customization options like weight, grips and palm height adjustment. Software was decent. I did like that you could save up to 5 different profile settings in the mouse and that the cord is braided. The tracking sensor is laser so I definitely felt it tracked better on a hard surface mouse pad. I owned the Ripjaw MX780 mouse for a few years now and some of the buttons didnt always work, so I ordered a replacement via Amazon and ran across the Steelseries Sensei mouse. I read some of the reviews and decided to give it a go. I immediately noticed a vast improvement over the Ripjaw mouse. I am in the minority when it comes to weight. I prefer my gaming mice to be on the heavier side. Now the Sensei is not as heavy as the Ripjaw MX780, which with the added weights came in around 123g. The Sensei also isnt as light as other top rated mice, like the ones from Logitech. I did try a couple of the Logitech ones and they all were too light for my personal taste. I am left handed so the ambidextrous design is perfect for me. My hands are on the larger side. (measurements 22cm length x 14cm width) The Sensei was a good size for me. I also like that you can reprogram all 4 side buttons. I have 2 complaints about this mouse. 1) I wish the cord was braided. I feel it sometimes sticks or easily catches on the surface of the mouse pad. I didnt have this problem with the GSkill Ripjaw MX780 mouse. Nothing a good mouse bungee could fix though. 2) I wish the software/hardware would allow you to save more than just 2 DPI settings. My old Ripjaw mouse allowed to have up to 5 different profiles stored. The Sensei only supports 2. I play a bit of Overwatch and liked having different DPI sensitivity settings available to me for the various heroes in game. Overall the Sensei is a great ambidextrous mouse and I honestly prefer it as my main mouse and have replaced my other mouse with it. ***UPDATE*** I originally gave 4 out of 5 stars when I first reviewed this mouse and now, after 3 months of use, its still going strong. No issues with the clicks and side buttons. The Sensei 310 still glides smoothly with the stock feet as it did the first day out of the box.

I really like how this feels in my hand. Usually, computer mice are too small for me, and they get lost in my hand, but this one fits my hand size. Its good for gaming since it has the standard two side buttons, plus a dpi button on the top. The software that comes with it is pretty neat, too, though I havent fully explored it. My only problem is that sometimes the left click will click twice when I only clicked once. Other than that, I have liked everything about this mouse. Including the mouse wheel, which I have had bad luck with mouse wheels in the past.
