Cyber Snipa Stinger Mouse

I originally was thinking about buying the razer deathadder, then found this mouse. This mouse is a lot more ergonomic compared to the deathadder and a higher dpi, but is still cheaper. Very good if you want a fairly cheap gaming mouse.

I bought this mouse as a replacement for my cyber snipa intelliscope.

I must say I was very impressed - The mouse is quite large, and nicely sculpted ergonomically, so it fits my hand perfect. I have quite large hands so those with small hands may struggle with this size. The extra weights are a bonus and will let heavy handed players add extra resistance. I can play long online sessions with no pain or aches using this mouse. The overall finish and feel of the mouse is very nice, and the rubber coated thumbpad is very comfy.

The buttons and mouse wheel are all firm without being overly sensitive, and feel positive and tactile giving the player a very responsive gaming session, and they are all well laid out with no stretches needed to access them.

I found the four dpi settings a bit awkward, as you can only scroll through them in one direction, however you can easily change them with the included software, so I set 2 at 800, 1 at 1600, and one at 2500. The dpi switch is far better than the one on the intelliscope, and the scroll wheel changes colour to let you know what dpi mode you are in. If the mood takes you you could just as easily set all 4 setting to the same dpi or whatever config takes your fancy to fit your playing style. Its nice to have the choice.

Being an fps player, I have not tried any of the macro's, but I imagine for those who do a lot of programming or play mmorpgs they would be a bonus. They seem easy to programme and you can have up to 3 modes, giving a lot of flexibility.

One word of warning, the mouse ships with the side 4/5 buttons in macro mode - this means games do not see them as buttons. You need to go into the macro editors advanced mode and uncheck the 4/5 tick boxes for your games to see them - or program a macro.

In conclusion, I really like this mouse for its comfort and tactile feel, and cannot see me going back to razers over priced, over rated products. The mouse ships with a spare set of replacement feet which is a nice touch.

My usual gripe is that cyber snipa still seem incapable of making an ambidextrous mouse, there are no buttons at all on the right hand side of the mouse. I appreciate only 10% of the population is a lefty but they really need to address this issue.

This mouse is really good, it's responsive, comfortable and cheap. The weights are great and the buttons are easy to programme. Would recommend it to anyone who wants a great cheap gaming mouse. If you are left handed look else where.
