Low sense "CSGO Boomer" here, been using the mouse right at 2 weeks now and have very little complaints(side buttons could be bigger). How many days/hours do you generally use a mouse to review it?

[@nolargo]

I think he uses it for a week or 50+ hours before putting out the review

[@devinstated09]

@@nolargo in the finalmouse review he said he'd use it a couple hours

[@boardzy]

I would say 30 hours of actually swiping this on a mousepad. Some of that time was when I got it and complained about not wanting to use it then a lot in the past few days along with other ergos like KPA and outset ax to realize how little I like the prime wireless.

[@boardzy]

It varies with each mouse but I shoot for a week of use for most mice before a full review

[@Quick_Sa_Fugim]

Same csgo boomer here. Had the G703 as main for the last 2 years and I just loved it. I had bought it again if not the double clicking issues. That shape is awesome if you are looking for an ergo. Side buttons are big and unmissable. I hope we will get a Superlight version for it with nonfaulty switches.

[@AllOutOfEnemies1]

Absolutely love my prime wireless. I can definitely say the shape won't be for everyone, but coming from the Xtrify M4 it hits the spot personally.

[@zares_fnx]

What didn't you like about M4 that's better in Prime? And what's your hand size?

[@AllOutOfEnemies1]

@@zares_fnx I'll be honest, haven't measured my hand. But to answer your question, overall build quality. I still think the M4 is one of the best the best Ergo shapes I'll ever try and the mouse is great, but: 1. My Xtrify scroll is absolutely terrible. Im low sens on PUBG, and my scroll wheel would constantly activate and switch my weapon without me touching it. Feels like a rubber ball. 2. My M4 has had a creak since I got it. 3. Recent double clicking and deactivation on mouse 2. 4. Wired

[@zares_fnx]

@@AllOutOfEnemies1 Thanks. I was considering Prime, but for now, I keep switching between MM710 and M4, especially that I just can't use ambi in games like RTS/Moba, idk. Buuut I tend to "lose control" when using M4 while playing RTS games. Sometimes, I think it's just too much tilted to the right on the back. By losing control, I mean that in heat of battle, I lose a grip at the back, and no idea how to adjust it while microing a lot of units etc. The shape is very good, I agree, just not perfect for some reason, and it's hard to find a good ergo nowadays. As for your M4 issues, 1 - my scrollwheel used to scroll up randomly while scrolling down but updating firmware fixed it. Not a big fan of its feeling. 2 - I have very minor creaking if I squeeze sides and top alternately, after a few times, it stops for a while. 3 - I always fear of doubleclicking Omrons... fortunately, no issues after 7 months. Other than that, right button vibrates/creaks in post-travel, especially if pushed near the right edge of the mouse. Mouse feet are terrible, very inconsistent, choppy on low sens, sticky from pos 0 or changing directions. Flicking from pos 0 and tracking (especially in fast arena fps or in Apex) is just bad. I'm considering buying Corepads.

[@gorillaglue5958]

You’re profile pick scares me for some reason

[@adamkowalczyk9791]

Whats grip width, could you compare to m4 and g403

[@dayb4063]

For everyone that is interested in information instead of "marketing& bullsh1t" I hope this helps. I am semi-pro CS go player and i absolutely enjoyed my new SS Prime Wireless, Mice i have used before: Vaxee AX, Zowie s2 Divina, Glorious model O wireless, Logitech g Pro wireless. Have replaced all this mice with Prime, it has a bit weird shape but if u have Claw/relaxed Claw - Palm grip this mouse fill fit you like a glove, my hand size is 19cm by 10cm and i claw-palm grip. For FPS shooters sensor is best I've Tried so far, ( you know as they say tech reviewers this days that you wont feel difference.... can't and won't agree on that ) I felt difference and this mouse tracking is absolute pleasure. so everyone who was discouraged not to buy this product Just because Boardzy or other Tech reviewer doesn't like shape : don't be ! P.S. i do not play other than fps competitive games so cannot advise you on other games ( example DOTA. League of legends etc... ) if you will have questions feel free to msg me I will gladly help you

[@I3asyl]

@@underh1gh same here. After trying KPA, GPX, outset and bunch of other this is my go to main. Performance wise my best is on outset then prime over anything else and I actually enjoy the ergo but not ergo shape a LOT. 20by10 claw.

[@gttrmgc3284]

Same. Had this and the Kone at the same time. Kone got returned and my GPX was sold on Reddit. Most reviewers are loving this thing. Boardzy hates everything so, I didn’t expect anything positive from this review.

[@boardzy]

@@gttrmgc3284 at least you’re telling the truth, so many people are gaslighting me and saying I shill everything. Most reviewers are boomers who can’t aim so it makes sense that they want a comfy ergo or whatever. If I was ergosexual I wouldn’t watch myself

[@Alm8hoorOW]

I can 100% agree on everything you just said about the mouse’s ergonomics. It feels awkward in all grips except for palm grip in my case. I wish the left side of the mouse didn’t have such a sharp corner because it keeps hitting the bottom of my thumb when I try to claw grip it. Otherwise this mouse would be perfect for me.

[@chroniclezhang9539]

Poggers boardzy upload time to drop everything in my life

[@3Runner95]

I heard the switches have these massive springs inside them and paired with an optical sensor the feel should not degrade

[@josecastro2332]

I’m actually a fan of it. The shape actually works with my claw grip. I have an 18x8.5cm hand. Although i do agree with you with these weird ass side buttons but after some adjusting it didint bother me as much. For what ever reason i can track reaaaaally well with it on my MPC450. I don’t know what black magic has been sprinkled on it. The Feet are great and i simply do not understand the fact that the other prime variants don’t have it. Would have made them a bit more appealing but other than that. I’m a fan. Even at 80 grams.

[@maga9073]

Boardzy, it does have an dpi button. It's under the mouse, and you have to press it twice to changing the dpi. I know it's weird.

[@BAMB00STE]

Maybe I can convince my g502 using "friend" to switch to this as a gateway to real mice

[@BAMB00STE]

Also I don't understand the usage of side buttons. They feel inconvenient and uncomfortable compared to keyboard keys and I can't click them while aiming. I wish mice didn't even include them.

[@ya7ioo]

@@BAMB00STE they are mainly for FPS or MMO/RPG games. Not really any use for other types of games, but considering this mouse is made for FPS, it HAS to include them.

[@epitaph3988]

The G502 is a “real” mouse lol.

[@TheShadowsnivy]

@@BAMB00STE I use discord all the time and I use push to talk because I have background noise. It’s not that hard to click a button while you’re playing a video game 😐

[@brandonkey181]

If you want it, my 2 cents are to get the wired version, especially since it's half the price. Its 10 grams lighter, and the awesome new switches, feet, build, etc are just as good. + the detachable cable will make it stupid simple to paracord (BE WARNED ITS USB MICRO NOT USB C). If you're wondering about the shape, I have 20x11 hands and I think the shape is pretty good. I'm afraid our best buddy Boardzy here is right about the sidebuttons. They're really small, but I have to say they don't *actively* bother me now that I've gotten a week or so of playtime.

[@jimhalpert6296]

Spit on me boardzy

[@TheKillerZmile]

sus

[@shazzyq]

yes im dumb and its real question, why is USBC such a turn on and micro usb is a turn off?

[@fursan07]

USB-C is on almost every tech product you can use 1 cable to charge all devices like your phone, laptop and TWS etc. USB-C adoption removes fragmentation as ideally you can use any cable anywhere. USB-C is a direct successor to Micro-USB, USB-A and many other connectors. It also can be plugged dual sided. There is no reason at all for companies to keep using Micro-USB, it's old tech and needs to be fazed out and mostly has. It's not a deal breaker for a mouse to have Micro-USB like the G-Pro Superlight, If I was gonna buy it I would regardless.

[@sk4dooshh897]

@boardzy you gotta use their new "GG" software for this mouse instead of Steelseries engine.

I use a fingertip grip and the shape of this mouse feels fine to me. There is post travel on the main clicks, but it doesn't bother me. There is no pre-travel and that's the important part. I do wish the side buttons were bigger, and I especially wish it was easier to differentiate between the forward and the back side buttons.

[@воображала]

I don’t know whether they wrote to you about this or not, TrueMove Air is 3335. All you need is to compare the declared characteristics of the mouse sensor on the mouse page with any existing sensor from pixart (there is a table with characteristics). So the Steelseries saved even on the sensor and did not want to spend money on 3370. I also consider this mouse not worth the money and it will completely die when Zowie and Vaxee Wireless comes out. Also Corsair Sabre RGB Pro wireless is a direct competitor of this mouse, and it also costs less, you have to touch it.

[@NeoCyrus777]

If you're an ergosexual you might as well get a brick like the G502 Lightspeed, and put 3rd party skates like Tiger Gaming Ice on them (but know on a G502 skates don't make flat contact), break those in on a very grain pad as if you're sanding it down, and use the fastest hard mat you got.

[@NeoCyrus777]

SteelSeries border on scammers. If you buy a product from them, don't expect them to actually provide warranty when it inevitably breaks down in the warranty period. That's been my experience, and the experience of everyone I know who's bought their products.

[@gormikayelyan9793]

I got this for 89.99 and I actually love the shape. I was looking for something similar to g703 with little lower weight. I am between this, Roccat air pro, and xlite wireless. I use palm grip mainly.

Perfect for Claw grip for me. And after going through a cheap model D copy, then a model D, and then a G-wolves Skoll, the Prime however was the first mouse I’ve gotten since my MX Master where the switches feel good (their a bit heavier than I’d like, but at least they’re not scratchy or having ridiculous lateral movement), and the build quality is way above the model D and other “hole-y” Zowie EC2 clones I’ve been through.

i think this mouse is really good for palm grippers with above average sized hands and also have pinky rest problems with misclicks... Plenty of room to rest the right side of your hand, maybe more than any mouse i've ever used besides the mx518...feels more natural than the GPW SL...i've been using it and it is a top tier wireless mouse imo...it would be better if it were 70g and the side buttons were a little bigger...my two only real complaints...i also like extremely tactile scroll wheel steps and these are really good(about as good as it gets), but still accidently jump sometimes. overall 8.5/10

[@lvano856]
