Excellent fit
Great mouse overall, it fits for the larger hand. Very accurate and has a nice feel to it. Got 2 (one as a back up) ... Had it before and was satisfied with the performance and longevity of the buttons and the wheel.

Great mouse
It feel excellent in your hand, the material used feels good and doesnt get dirty. The only point i have is the problem that arises with the 3 stacked side buttons. You can sometimes press the wrong one. But I noticed i got used to it sfter some time. Great mouse, recommend.

Loving it so far.
Definitely an improvement over my previous mouse. The Rival is smooth and tracks well. It is a nice large size for comfort. The side buttons placement did take some getting used to but once familiar its comfortable to use. The side buttons could protrude ever so slightly more just for added confidence in pushing them. But its super minor once familiar.

It works pretty well
Bought it about a month or 2 ago because my ancient rival 310 was starting to act up a little when clicking and the new thing works very nice. One thing is that the colours of the lights aren’t quite 100% accurate at least on mine, anything other than strong red is a little more whited out than the last mouse but not really a big deal.

Solid mouse
Good overall, main con would be the right click is not as response as the left

Its a mouse. It does mouse things.
It goes clicky click and it has shiny colours. It clicks where i want it to click and i have extra buttons for extra clicking!
Seriously though. I have a great gaming experience and no issues with it whatsoever. Its also pretty great for smaller hands.

Best mouse!
This is the 3rd one i’m buying. The button placement makes it so easy to hit multiple presets really quickly, the mouse is accurate, lightweight, and the GG software with prismsync works perfectly with it. the mouse is extremely reliable, i had one for years and when i replaced it i spilled water and ruined it and bought my 3rd one. my girlfriend loved it so i bought he...

Great shape and smooth movement, cool package
I was replacing my 110 after many years of faithful service and was looking to upgrade a bit. Really enjoying the movement and the extra buttons. The lighting is just icing on the cake, completely unnecessary, I still spent way to long messing around with different lighting options for different config sets.
Apart from the actual mouse the software is just nice to us...

Amazing and Reliable
I am used to the same old same old mouse, I have finally found one that does not break the budget, is reliable, and is functional out of the box. I am happy to find an affordable option that I can depend on.

I'll keep coming back again and again
Bought this to replace my old aerox 5, it's the exact same mouse but without the holes which would lead to the scroll wheel gumming up. I love the extra buttons and it's fits my hand great. Plug and play with more options if needed

Great Mouse for an great Price!
I purchased the Mouse a few weeks ago, an love it. It fits perfect in my hand, i've small hands, and let's navigate easily.
What i don't like are the upper sidebuttons, it's anusual to use for me, but maybe i got use to be.
I would definitly recommend this mouse.
