High CPI sensitivity
Simple & elegant
Option to use as wireless or wired
Metal charging dock
Lots of options to tweak
LED customisation – 16.8M colours
Excellent performance
Easy to use software
SteelSeries has crafted an excellent looking mouse that suits both right-handed and left-handed gamers
And feels great in the hand too. It's made up of a soft-touch material that's grippy enough to last you through long-lasting gaming sessions
And it's lightweight
Ringing up at just 120g on the scales. Its two main mouse buttons are large and easy to press
While the scroll wheel is perfectly
Deep software customisation
Premium build materials
High resolution sensor
Impressive battery life
Lightweight
The editors didn't like
No ergonomic or weight options
Eight buttons might be too few for some
Expensive
SteelSeries' Sensei Wireless is a brilliant mouse
But it falls a little short in the actual wireless department. You have to hook up the dock to your computer to use the mouse in wireless mode
As it uses a proprietary standard to link up
Which means it's not ideal for use with a laptop on the go - and effectively makes it just a glorified wired mouse. Using the dock does eliminate the lag
and FV I'll be honest, when I got the Sensei Wireless in I was a little worried. I have a whole stack of wired Sensei's and I have been extremely happy with their comfort and performance over the years. I was worried that there wasn't room to improve...
While it's a shame we don't see SteelSeries come up with brand new designs all that often, one thing they do seem to do extremely well is find ways to offer new variations of popular products they already have and the Sensei Wireless is without a doubt a ...

In terms of performance, the Sensei Wireless delivers as promised. We found that the mouse would react perfectly on any surface, including wood, paper, stone, and even glass. A good mousepad however is strongly recommended, not for increased accuracy or a...

From the day I have opened the box of the SteelSeries Sensei Wireless, I knew it was the one. And why should this be a question in the first place? For the last ten years or so, no matter how many computer mice cross the floor here at APH Networks, I have...
Abstract: Optical mice first hit the scene back in 1999, replacing ball mice and their fluff-stuffing rollers. The Optical sensor is basically a tiny camera, with a small LED bouncing red light off the mousing surface onto a CMOS sensor, thousands of times per seco...
If price is no barrier, this is a fantastic mouse...

SteelSeries mice have impressed us in many ways over the years, and the Sensei Wireless is a great addition to their lineup. Not only is this mouse wireless, lag-less, ambidextrous, comfortable, as well as being easy to use and set up, but in the end, we...

Stylish, elegant, Better than the original Sensei (material feel, weight, etc), Ambidextrous, Accurate sensor, high performance, Up to 8200 CPI/DPI if you need it, Easy to charge, cool-looking charging plate, Comfortable to hold, comfortable to click on,
Not as comfortable as a mouse designed for a specific hand, Not for those with big hands, Charging plate design takes quite a space on the desk
With abundant customisations, elegant look-and-feel, and smooth performance, the best just gets better. The Sensei that we all love now goes wireless, feels cooler, and steadier to handle! Totally recommended if you love the original Sensei but your gami...
Do you need an expensive wireless gaming mouse? Maybe. The Sensei Wireless clearly sits at the fringe of a rational person's price range for a mouse; it's not hugely different from your garden variety Logitechs, and it's not hugely different from the wire...
