It has your standard layout, plus two side buttons, two top buttons, and a forward "clutch" paddle.
A solid layout for someone who dosent want buttons they will never use.
Now ... this does have LED's (which I run at 50%) and maybe I'm just a little out of touch with expectations these days but I'm a little disappointed that I have yet another device that I need to constantly keep charged. Over time it won't be a big deal as I will remember to dock it daily but right now I forget and then deal with battery anxiety.
All in all a solid mouse. Just be aware of the battery situation.
The GF has the non hyperspeed version that uses a AA, she gets about 500hrs of use on one eneloop.

- The dock+dongle cannot be plugged into a USB Switcher unless its powered externally.
- The included micro-USB cable is the only cable that fits into the mouse since its keyed with a groove on the sides. Otherwise you have to jam a third-party cable in there and then use ridiculous force to get it out.
- The software has been a pleasant experience for me. I set the dock to show me the mouse's charge level.
- The dock's magnets don't help me at all in finding the right place to attach the mouse. I have to fiddle around with it and even after all this time it still takes me a few tries.
- Tracking has been wonderful -
- Mouse isn't too light or too heavy and even after hours of use my hand doesn't hurt.
- Coming from a wired G502, this mouse checked all the boxes for me. It's been good for productivity and gaming.
At this price I would definitely buy it again but if it was closer to the G502 I'd probably go with that since the PowerPlay Mat seems like a better charging solution.Sign up for a Slickdeals account to remove this ad.
