In order to customise Sensei Wireless you must install SteelSeries Engine3. This powerful software gives the user a multitude of options to modify and we’ve made a short overview to highlight some of the features that can be enjoyed below.

Performance

Sensei Wireless follows a traditional shape for SteelSeries. There is a reason why Sensei has remained a firm favourite within the gaming scene – it sits within mid-large hands comfortably with all buttons in easy reach. Its design is simple and elegant but it’s under the hood where all the technical advantages come in.

This mouse uses a Pixart ADNS 9800 high-end laser sensor which tracks extremely well on different surfaces. The added bonus of being able to tweak the options inside SteelSeries’ software is great because sensitivity, acceleration and polling rates can all be altered on the fly. The CPI is extreme flexible on this mouse, making it a superb option for different genres and gamers.

We tested Sensei Wireless in a variety of different games and it responded well, with zero lag. Movement with this mouse is accurate and precise regardless of the game type – FPS or MMO.

We also experienced no glide or friction issues in the 16-18 hours we maintained battery life. We really the fact there is an option to go wired if the mouse has low-battery and the mouse is needing to be used.
