welcome to my unboxing and first look at the tte sports level 10m gaming mouse
their tagline is born to be seen which
brings us to the level 10 concept so this isn't the first level 10 product
from thermal take and it is as such not
the first product that they built in collaboration with BMW design Works USA
so what's what's level 10 according to their
website I'm just going to read this experience high-end computers through
the design itself combine iconic design with
Optimum functionality and Innovative details with these products quality is
of the utmost importance so you're not going to find any skimping on the
workmanship or the materials here and
it's a little bit different from the inspired by Pro gamers approach for
something like a safira which was designed in collaboration with white raw
the Starcraft 2 player whereas this is
more like yeah it has to have the functionality and the ergonomics and the
Comfort but it also has to look like something that anyone who has you know a
sense of style would proudly display on their desk so this attention to detail
and quality carries over in the specs first thing we find about this mouse is
it's got an 8200 DPI laser sensor that's pretty much topof the range as as far as
it goes today you've also got fully programmable buttons that can be
switched between profiles with the DPI
and profile switcher button so this is a multi-way button 1 2 3 4 right there and
you've got a on the left side left right
and middle click as well as CN buttons
on the right side for a total of 11 programmable keys that you can
reconfigure in the software you've also got DPI indicators up here on the top
right that light up when the mouse is illuminated and it's available in three
different colors depending on your personal preference Diamond black Iron
white and Military green one of the things about the mouse that I really
feel marries the functionality and design aspects is the aluminum unibody
shell so what this does is it adds rigidity to the mouse so it's very very
strong using aluminum like this it's relatively lightweight compared to other
metals so it goes all the way from the right side to the bottom to the left and
it's corrosion resistant this is a property of aluminum that might not be
that helpful on a mouse unless you're eating corrosive snacks while you're
gaming but last and not least aluminum does help with heat dissipation so the
fact that you're going to be making contact with the mouse on the right and left side could help to cool your hand a
little bit although I don't think it's can to make a huge difference and that combined with again another design
aesthetic of the mouse right here the ventilation holes on the top couldn't
hurt in terms of making sure that you don't over sweat yourself and you know
find your hand slipping off the mouse during a long gaming session another
functionality thing is the fact that the mouse has what they're calling 3D
adjustments so you get 15° on the back of the mouse with the included tool I'm
trying to remove this here I'm having a difficult time there you go so you can
adjust the backing up and down this is 15° so it's all the way down now now I'm
going up so you can hopefully see how that's being adjusted there or maybe I'm
going down now yeah I'm going down now so this this backing piece right here
and then you can also actually tilt the mouse left and right 5 mm so I'm I hope
you're going to able to see this maybe we'll do an overlay a closeup there so
you can hopefully see how the back actually tilts so this allows your wrist
to be a little bit more aligned while you're using it more design and
aesthetic but this should definitely appeal to The Gamers out there is the
fact that it has seven different lighting colors available in four
different zones so I'm going to go ahead and plug the mouse in and we're going to see what we get by default here so the
Dragon Inside lights up the mouse wheel
itself lights up the DPI selector lights up and then this design design element
rectangle up here also lights up meaning that you can see the lighting effects of
the mouse from any angle where you're looking at it and you can change them
around to whatever is going to suit your personal aesthetic so you can see that
the red version of the mouse comes with red by default however like I said you
can use the software to completely change that around if you want now the
last little bit of Hardware functionality is the AHA carrying case
that it comes with that includes two separate pouches one for the mouse and
one for the cable so more functionality built into it wherever you happen to be
taking your mouse you don't want to scratch it because it's not just
functional it's also stylish it's got to look good on your desk as much as it has
to be functional so it's going to come down to the individual do you want
something more Pro gamer inspired like a Sapphira where it's all about the
ergonomics and like the button placements and everything is exactly
perfect exactly there and that is all um or do you want something that is more
about the well the marriage of both functionality and style and that I think
is going to be the level 10 m gaming mouse from tte Sports now speaking of
functionality and style audible.com you
can head over to audible.com Linus where you can get yourself a free audio book I
actually just recently picked up the Cat in the Hat by Dr Seuss there's a number
of other Dr Seuss books that are also included and I was inspired to do so
because I was driving the other day and I was listening to the radio and I heard
an insurance ad come on and I was sure that it was John C and uh it turns out
that it was so I was like you know I need more of his soothing British accent
in my life and so does my one-year-old baby so I picked up this Cat in the Hat
Thing and actually he's not the only celebrity voice that is reading some of
Dr Seuss's awesome stories there's Billy Crystal as well as Walter mathau and
there's absolutely nothing Bad News Bears about any of those voice actors so
