What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the light weight, responsive switches and accurate wireless tracking. Both find the low shape less comfortable for larger hands. PCGamesN regards the performance as worth the high price, while Tom's Hardware finds the shell hollow and the grip tape poor; their grip-tape judgements differ.
