Mionix Naos QG Review

👤by Tony Le Bourne Comments 📅28-10-16
Conclusion

The idea of installing a heart rate monitor and a GSR monitor in a mouse is an interesting way to provide users an insight into your gaming experience and could be the start of something interesting. Though some may find this implementation a little premature, the reality is that the interaction between man and machine is growing ever closer and these measurements made on the Naos QG is something that is fairly inevitable, so why not start early? Despite the horror stories, games could eventually use this information to create custom experiences for the end user.



Besides the standout features, the Naos QG is a premiuim mouse that feels and performs as such, though its only real downside is that hefty price tag, something that may make some feel that this isn't for them. Especially when you consider that the SteelSeries Rival 700 is a good £40-£50 cheaper! Though beside that one point, the comfort, quality and performance all stack in its favour and if you like larger, palm orientated mice, you will absolutely love this compared to something like the smaller, more neutrally designed Rival 700. If it captures your heart, go for it!

THe NAOS QG feels like a superb, premium gaming mouse with bags of performance to boot, the advanced data tracking and biometric information may seem a little much, but it could also be the start of something big.
