Specification



The first thing that jumped out at me from the specifications was the 10 buttons (custamisable). While there are not actually ten buttons (there are 9 including the mouse wheel), not all buttons are customisable. There are however ten customisable ways in which some of the buttons operate. The DPI is is enough for even the most sensitive needy of gamers (upto 6500) with a maximum acceleration of 50G and a tracking speed of 150" per second it looks to have all the right specs in place. My one area of concern would be the Phillips twin-eye laser which has been a little hit and miss with some mice due to problems with lift-off tracking so it will be interesting to see if the problems have been rectified with this mouse.

Let's take a look at the overall packaging and contents though before going into greater detail...
