Redragon M612 Predator RGB Gaming Mouse, 8000 DPI Wired Optical Mouse with 11 Programmable Buttons & 5 Backlit Modes, Software Supports DIY Keybinds Rapid Fire ButtonCarbonfree Certified

This is such a good gaming mouse. I used to be an (unholy) gamer who used the apple magic mouse... 🤮 This mouse is such an upgrade. First of all, it's way cheaper, $36, but after coming from the.. apple... magic... mouse 🤮 it felt like it was worth a million dollars. It still does, actually. The build quality is fantastic, extremely high quality hard plastic, exceptional RGB (very bright and colorful), and the rapid fire button really just makes opening documents easier. I haven't had any issues with the scroll wheel, and the DPI adjuster buttons are really nice. The polling rate of 1000 is really, really nice for gaming, and the battery life will put any other $40 dollar gaming mouse to SHAME. I game with it about 1 hour a day, and I use school for it about 6-10 hours a day, and the batter life lasts me 2 weeks. The wireless connectivity has absolutely no issues whatsoever, and it glides better without the cable, so I prefer it. Though, the cable is really high quality, so if you're a wired guru, this is still an excellent choice. The.. apple... magic... mouse 🤮 was barely functional in gaming, as it had a terrible sensor and no side buttons, but this mouse is not that. It has a great sensor, and it has side buttons, so it's much more functional when gaming. (Grantite, the bar was non existent, but this really has set my bar to be pretty high. Razer, take some notes. You don't have to charge $180 to have a great gaming mouse.) It's also a great productivity mouse, as it's very comfortable and ergonomic, and the side buttons can help serve as a copy and paste. On travel distance, it has very little on the right/left click. The side buttons are just a tad mushy with a little bit of travel distance, but it's not noticeable, and I would actually say it outcompetes other mice in this area. Also, the high DPI availabiltiy is nice, as I can set my DPI to high and lower my in-game sensitivity to have less sensor latency. I can also achieve 15 CPS, so if you need high CPS, go with this. I mean, Redragon, you might not always make the best mice, but you outdid yourselves with this one. For a 36 dollar gaming mouse, it ticks all the boxes for a 100 dollar gaming mouse. If you're any sort of gamer, just go with this. It's fantastic, and it's budget friendly, with no issues to speak of. 20/10. Seriously dude, grab one before it's sold out, because it's just that good :)

I bought a new gaming laptop and wanted a gaming mouse to go with it. This seemed to be the most affordable while still maintaining the quality product I wanted. I will say its a VERY nice mouse. I was a bit surprised by a few factors. One, the wheel is very durable and textured. So is the left side of the mouse (where you put your thumb), so its very comfortable and ergonomic.As far as connecting it, I turned the mouse on and my laptop automatically recognized it. I didn't have to pair or even plug the USB cord or receiver. But I did anyways just to avoid any potential connectivity issues in the future, but the ease of connecting was a breeze for wireless. Speaking of, I was VERY impressed with the mouse cord. Its not a rubber cord like a normal USB cord, its more along the lines of the cord used to tie shorts or hoodies. Almost like a shoelace, but very good quality. I like that because its much lighter weight and less privy to moving the mouse around on its own.Overall, I really like this mouse. I do recommend downloading the optional software as it gives you much easier control to the full features of this mouse. Its quite accurate in its operation (buttons/scrolling etc). I can't comment too much on battery life because I haven't had to recharge it yet, which I assume is a good thing. I love that it has three ways to connect (wired/wireless/bluetooth). Whether or not you like the LED feature, you can control it either way.I'd give it the following ratingButton and pointer accuracy - 5Battery Life - 5 (based on my experience thus far)Grip - 5Overall - 5 stars

Best mouse for it's price point. Able to customize every button. Setting up macros in the program has a learning curve, but easy to do once you understand the basics. Was able to set the trigger button to right click 300 times a second. This mouse can register multiple button presses at once, great for those games where you need to press 2+ buttons at the same time. The usb/power/connector wire is made from a soft cloth like texture. I assume it might offer less protection (but unless you're gaming next to sharp objects, not an issue) than a braided plastic cord, but the softness allows fluidity and lets you slide the mouse better without pull back from the wire. LED is neat and customizable in the program, but eventually you might want to turn it off. Mouse able to turn off LED. Once you program your buttons you also don't need to constantly keep the program open like some other mice, so less resources on your machine. A+ for it's price point, would buy again.

I'm giving this one four stars only because I accidentally hit the thumb button that executes back function in Windows sometimes. I never had that problem with my older Logitech G300s gaming mouse.The mouse looks and feels decent enough. The scroll wheel doesn't take excessive force to scroll like some low cost mice. It was one of the cheapest gaming mice and I'm satisfied with how it works for the price. It feels good in my hand which is pretty large, but might be too large for someone with a small hand like a child. I haven't noticed that it makes my hand sweaty or anything like that. The cable has a braided sheath that probably won't crack in half the way solid plastic cable sheaths sometimes do when they get old and brittle. I don't think it has as many buttons as my G300s did, but I don't really use the extra buttons on the mouse in the games I play. I think perhaps if you play MMOs you could benefit from more buttons. I play lots of games, but they are not first-person shooters or twitch games so I can't comment on the high-speed performance as the games I play just aren't that demanding. It is definitely more performant than the Logitech B100 desktop mouse I had used since my G300s gaming mouse stopped working as the B100 mouse had a very slow polling rate definitely not adequate for twitch gaming.
