Not the most comfortable mouse
Lightweight
Feels a bit plastic
Not quite as comfy as some right-handed mice

No adjustable weights or grips
Some minor issues with software install

Abstract: I don’t know where to really start with this thing. The back of the box reads off so many features that an ordinary man is liable to get mad. “What are all these features?!”, he might say. So, knowing that you are no ordinary man, and could likely be ...
We have tested this mouse for two weeks now in our daily usage that includes working in windows and also some gaming. The testing was ran on three screens so there are big areas for the mouse to cover between the screens. Overall testing has been more...

The SteelSeries Sensei mouse is a good albeit expensive mouse. It is definitely one of the best performing solutions out there, and is right up there with the Mionix 5000. Sensor wise the Avago 9500 based mice are still in the lead, despite having issu...

When buying the SteelSeries Sensei you do not have to worry about product quality, its something that is valid for their other products too. The shape of the mouse is good for most people, by following the exact lines Xai had and the mouse clicks can ...
Abstract: As I’ve said before, you typically don’t go wrong with SteelSeries. You might pay a bit more than usual but as the old saying goes you get what you pay for. I’ve been trying to see if that maxim holds up with SteelSeries’ Sensei, their new gaming-optim...

Since the Sensei arrived Monday morning and we've been using it ever since (25+ hours) this is not what I’d call a very thorough test but nevertheless it's a lot more than what is required from such a device. During this time i used it with Bat...
The Sensei is really a top of the line gaming-grade mouse thanks to three factors: the ExactTech, the high level of resolution, and great configuration features. We do think it’s worth noting that the software isn’t user-friendly, and two of the side b...
