What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the comfortable right-handed shape, sturdy build and flawless, responsive performance, with RTINGS measuring low click and sensor latency. PC Gamer found it best suited to palm grips and tactical shooters, and criticised the high price, limited customisation and fingerprint-prone coating; it also found it not the lightest, where RTINGS called it very light.
