The company that made this no longer exists. Thank god, I thought I have seen garbage mice but this is the pinnacle.

The Bad: It skipped on any cloth and hard surface I had. Jitter out the . The cable placement was baffling. The cable was the stiffest yet. It's glide was horrendous. It struggled past 0.4-5m/s on any dpi. Cursor delay that I never saw before and never want to see again. Mouse feet would actually move various pads across my desk. Poor button placement. It doesn't even do 1000hz. It's stuck at 500hz. There is also random spikes at 125hz. I could go on and on but once I'm done typing this I'm just throwing it into the garbage.

To top it all off it died after taking it apart for no good reason at all. I couldn't even do a wired debounce test, speaking of which I did do a bump test though. +25ms vs G303. This mouse's msrp in 2009 was $99. Yup.

If there is a mouse that can turn a person into R0ach, it's this mouse.

Edit: I'm looking at a review of this mouse. Oh F@*%€ING lord, the packaging.
Yup mine was actually new. Came in clear plastic case packaging that required a provided screwdriver to open it. The mouse itself was attached by screws to a pedestal. Craftsmanship.

Why does this exist?

No, really. I've used some weird-a$$ mice in my time, and have observed plenty of bizarre-seeming design decisions that actually turned out to have a decent, or at least interesting, reason behind them (though not necessarily one that was enough to cover the tradeoffs), but I'm having real trouble seeing any upside to this product.

I was hoping it would somehow be a hidden gem. Hell it even weighed 90 grams. Nope. Cypress laser sensor never had a chance with the 3 or so poor mice that used it. Ikari Laser being the best of all them. Which is not much.

Oh god, It'll take me a bit to remember now. I think MysticSiva purchased one too but he never opens up his stuff.

I still think I had a bad unit. There was no way a normal unit would be that terrible. Worst part is it was brand new when I got it.

Oh and this isn't even a unique mouse, this is some generic odm shell. Canyon 502 was a yellow colored clone. The shape itself I've seen reused even recently(sans ******ed side cord of course)
