5 out of 5 stars Nice, simple mouse   July 13, 2010

I bought this mouse as a birthday present for a friend whose Death Adder broke. So far, both of us like it.

The Abyssus is simple, in that it has just the two mouse buttons and a scroll wheel. It's also very light and easy to move around. The upper part of the mouse has a soft feel to it and it also looks sleek. The blue symbol lights up when it use. I know it's a gimmick, but I like it anyway.

The mouse functions well on the hard surface mouse pad my friend uses. It takes only small movements for the arrow to zip around on the screen. In fact, at 3500dpi, it seemed too zippy. We found the 1800dpi works best.

I recommend this mouse to anyone who wants a simple mouse or who is prone to accidentally hitting the auxiliary buttons which are now standard on many other mice.



5 out of 5 stars Great RTS mouse   August 23, 2010

This is a great mouse for RTS and overall a near perfect item. I rarely give 5 stars but this is an extremely high quality item. I gave it a 4/5 on comfort because I bought it to use fingertip grip which I don't think is a very comfortable way to use a mouse. However, this mouse makes fingertip grip more comfortable than on others I've tried. I've tried Logitech mx500, g500, LMO, salmosa mini and could not fingertip grip them at all comfortably while this mouse makes it pretty comfortable. The mouse has prediction / mouse smoothing / angle snapping whatever you call it turned off which is great. I have had no acceleration problems with it although I don't use the large mousepad palm style that I used to with FPS games so I probably wouldn't notice them if they were there. As for the complaints that it doesn't work with certain mousepads I think the incident rates of that are extremely low. I use a goliathus control and have had 0 problems. It's extremely lightweight, only beaten by a salmosa mini or a LMO with the weight removed. You can definitely claw grip this mouse or even palm it though your entire palm will likely not contact the mouse which may not be a bad thing. I often claw or palm it without realizing it during casual browsing so it is a comfortable way to hold the mouse. The mouse does not need any drivers which is great. Just flip it to 1,000hz and whatever DPI you want and you're good to go. I like the mouse wheel quite a bit. It is very firm and is lower on the mouse than normal. I feel a lot more comfortable using it as a mouse3 button than on any other mouse I've tried. The texture is very good. I was concerned it would be too slippery but I have not found my fingers sliding out of position during play and also it allows for a certain rotation of the fingers which is needed for fingertip grip as you pull the mouse towards and away from you. The sides of the mouse are shaped like this < > but not nearly that extreme of an angle obviously. This allows for a good grip on the lower half of the mouse so you don't have to squeeze it so hard to pull it up off the mousepad to reposition. The top angle gives you a good resting place for your ring finger. That is definitely the most important ergonomic aspect of the mouse for me. With all the other mice I've tried there is often no clear place to put your ring finger, especially with fingertip grip. The liftoff distance is a little bit high compared to my g500 but still lower than most other mice I've tried. The only other thing I can think of to improve on is the angle and height that the mouse cord comes out of the mouse. It is just like other mice but I think that the cord should come out at a bit of an up angle so it doesn't catch on the mousepad as easily, especially when using a mouse bungee. Other than that it is really a great mouse. This mouse is only very slightly behind my mx510 overall and by far the best for RTS games.


5 out of 5 stars Great mouse....   April 7, 2010

I have a bad habit of hitting side buttons, so I love the idea of a gaming mouse without them. This mouse is a very comfortable mouse for those of use that use a fingertip grip. The rubber top is soft and has a pleasant feel, it glides smooth, it tracks fine on cloth mouse pads. I like the blue light on the back. My only complaint is the scroll wheel feels stiff due to the rubber. For me it is the perfect mouse!

4 out of 5 stars Great mouse, a little pricey   June 17, 2010

I've always been a fan of razer mice. I used to own one a few years back and it had lasted me almost two years. After having a cheap 10$ optical mouse break on me, I decided to purchase this mouse, in hopes that it would last longer than most of the cheaper optical mice. I must say I'm very impressed with this mouse. It feels good in your hand, not too big and not too small. I don't like the newer optical mice that are so small they can't fit in your hand. I like the mice that fill your hand, because you get a good grip, which is essential (especially for the gamers out there). I don't really use any of the settings that the mouse has, because I'm on a Mac, so the software isn't available for it. However, the mouse was pretty much plug and play, and I haven't had any trouble yet.

Bottom Line: If you have some extra cash, buy this mouse. If not, stick with the cheaper optical mice, they will do the same thing for a cheaper price.
