that later Pro optic sensor so this is using an optical sensor not a laser sensor but still capable of 4,000 DPI the DPI is honestly it's more of a factor if you're running a very high resolution

Optical sensor 12 Mouse functions rat easy shift ultr light light system drivers and macros let's go ahead and open this bad boy up because rat is starting to get a lot of attention in North America they hadn't really been present here before but they are now and people are really talking about it so let's find out what all of the fusses about Optimum midsize design with perfectly balanced weight I do appreciate having adjustable weight on mice but I understand that that's not everyone's preference and and while I okay okay I should disclaim that because while I said I do like to have adjustable weight my actual favorite Mouse does not have adjustable weight so my second favorite mouse ever is the G9 and I haven't tried the g9x so I don't I don't know but it's probably more of the same and it's good um but my favorite Mouse is actually the steel series aari laser which is not weight adjustable so let's go ahead and have a look at the Aesthetics of the mouse so this is excellent grip material on the side here you can tell right away it's basically like sandpaper but not uncomfortable it's like rubber sandpaper so you'll have what it allows is for the sweat to sit in between the uh the bumps so you can still maintain grip on it and uh it's not absorbent at all but it should be pretty durable as well it doesn't feel like the kind of thing that you could just scratch off easily in terms of mouse buttons you've got two here so there's your backs and forwards you've got your left and right click you got your middle click and let's find out what easy shift is this is my

valid means of payment okay this be new register your personal ID using this card on our website so I am going to take this and I'm going to put this in my wallet right now because oh no my wallet's full of things like credit cards and identification okay I guess I'll file that somewhere else okay okay moving right along easy shift actually kind of cool so what it does here these are all the default assignments however once you install the software you can change them so here I'm going to demo on the mouse itself rather than so left click right click okay this is the easy shift button so here check this out browser forward shift browser back okay so scroll up scroll down shift volume up volume down so basically shift allows you to to press this and then press any of these other

optimized tracking that fits any style also has an ultra 2D incremental step wheel for perfect control during weapon changes and other critical decisions let's see yeah feels pretty solid okay I'm down high quality build ah yes more German engineering excellent so this goes along with our theme of German engineering in on our unboxings today which included the be quiet! dark power dark Power Pro power supply and my rabbit German engineering okay let's have a look at the mouse itself physically so you got your slippy pads on the front and the back you got your Optical sensor right there in terms of the size they're calling this a midsize Mouse I'd say this is more on the smaller side I have pretty small hands and this is a very very comfortable size for me uh in terms of the grip I'd say it's somewhere between you can Palm it if you want but what you'll find is I think your pinky will fall off a little bit so you might want want to uh claw it and I don't think it's really suitable for fingertip although you could probably do it cuz it's got enough of a contour here and enough of a contour here that you could probably get away with it uh but I'd say this is more of a claw grip than anything else um in terms of how it's most naturally used the top is is a little bit more smooth but still grippy compared to the sides where it's more like that sandpaper finish and the overall Comfort is pretty good actually like I'm I'm liking it I don't quite like the positioning of these I wish they were a little bit lower but um they're still once you actually put it down they're very reachable and it's not going to interfere with your ability to use the mouse otherwise even if you're holding down one of them as a shift so I think that pretty much covers it you know we should plug it in and check out the lighting effects actually just to see I think it's Blue by default let's just plug this in there you go actually I'm going to go turn off the light so that you can here we'll put it next to the Corsair M60 so you can see what a mouse with lighting effects looks like compared to a mouse without lighting effects if you aren't already aware of what a mouse with lighting effects looks like oh it's kind of neat so in the driver you should be able to configure things like the colors pulsation and all that good stuff so thank you for checking out my unboxing and first
