SPECIFICATIONS

Length: 135.6mm
Width: 67.65mm
Height: 43mm
Weight without Cable: 110g
With Cable: 143g
Product Color: Black
Lifespan: 50 million clicks
Optical Sensor
PixArt PMW 3360
12,000 DPI
12,000 FPS
50G Acceleration
250 IPS Tracking Speed
2mm LOD

So wierd design.

Too long, too thin, too high, too heavy and that sniper button.

110g w/o cable with no options? Ridiculous.

Why is that so thin and high? Maybe they want people to grab some mountains:(

Just 3360 sensor is better than logitech g402 and nothing is better than g502.

I think soundblaster should make just soundcards.

I pre-ordered this before they make public the specification but I'm going to cancel it now.

The shape is not so bad but I don't know why is that so heavy

It has no options like optional weights ,tilt wheels or else.

Nothing special just with software and rgb but 25g heavier than dm1 or nixeus revel.

I'll pass. Who wants to swipe around something that heavy? It can't be good for your wrist.
The actual mouse weight will be lower. Check the weight of some of your preferred mice with cable, you might be surprised.

Think, guys.

Well I chatted with creative about their specification and the next day they updated that. Maybe they measured that after the chat.

Of course many mice hav

EDIT: and the sniper button is always a no no
yes the shape is like g402 or 502. it's not so bad but height is about 10mm higher than them.

I like g502's shape because it's very comfortable(but too heavy. that'ts why I don't use it).

For same reason, I think I will going to get refund if they have no plan to make it lighter

Seriously... G402 is 41 mm high at 108 g, G502 is 40 mm high at 125. Also lightweight palm mice are pretty much only G403, Savu, KPM/O, EC, Castor. Everything else is in the same weight range.

Yea its very much in the mid range of weights also I like the RGB toward the mousepad looks really cool it's like the G303 except its not one color changing its like rainbow all around

The only criticism I can think of from these pics is the DPI button seems a bit big and angular might interfere with M1 and M2

I love the curve of it but can't understand why this mouse so heavy. It has no options comparing g502 or 402.

I've sent e-mail about them and if they don't give me answer about this, maybe I should cancel my order.

The weight is to bad for me

and the sniper button... RIP

yes this size is bigger than 402 so I can understand why it weighs 110g. I hope this to be shorter and get rid of sniper button so It can be lighter.

Is this good size for big hands? Hmm... I guess this size is a little strange.

Well. I didn't cancel because the size is strange but I should grab and be sure about this mouse.

The shape is not bad but the height is higher and length is super longer than g402 or 502. Maybe for people have over 20cm handsize. As I have 18cm handsize, I think I should cancel this. Too long too high too heavy for me. And that sniper button.... awwwwww

While I wouldn't actually use a sniper button I've been somewhat curious about setting something up so that right click lowers my sensitivity and FOV in CS. I probably wouldn't end up liking it, but I actually have many more hours in shooters with ads type things between BF games, Rainbow 6 Siege, and APB than in CS and I could see it maybe possibly helping. Most games I play at something like 32cm/360 hipfire and 64cm/360 or more ADS so it may help with long range shots. Right now in R6S its actually more like 160cm/360 when playing 3x sights which i mostly do. I'm sure I could do the sensitivity part, but I was actually curious if I could drop the FOV too while doing it. I know you can set your FOV to something different in console and could set that to a bind on a button, but IDK if you get a black screen for a second or lag or anything when doing that because I haven't tested it.

Like I said I probably wouldn't like it or stick with it, but I was curious if it was possible. My aim is actually significantly better in games with ADS probably because my sensitivity is fairly high, but is dropped while ADS. I don't feel comfortable if I can't easily do a 360 plus a bit on my mousepad though and my current pad is only 40cm plus I want a bit for the width of the mouse and some room to overshoot a 180 either direction.

Edit: Also I don't awp much, but that would get complicated and I think I would need another bind that changes my binds from right click doing that to right click doing normal m2. Plus nades, plus a bunch of other stuff. It would probably end up being really confusing and bad tbh.

So can I assume that means you've used it? Its not even out yet or widely available and you are saying it is a medium mouse despite being extremely large in dimensions. I'm pretty sure what you are looking for is an upsidedown bowl with a sensor inside it at this point.
