I've had this mouse maybe 5 months and the battery still gives me 2-3 days, the battery is also replaceable. As for the rest, the combination of high performance and wireless is what you are paying for with this mouse... I don't notice any difference between wired and wireless and you can go up to some ridiculous DPI and still maintain accuracy, I keep my DPI much higher than I did with my MX518 because the tracking feels smooth and accurate even at the high levels. The only thing I feel missing with this mouse is no aural indicator of low battery, you have to look at the gauge (though it is easy to see if you are right handed). It would probably get annoying if there was one though so no big deal. | ||

Other than that I'm satisfied. I don't mind the cheap plastic feeling. If it gets the job done, then it's golden. Although if I wasn't so broke ass broke at the time, I would have, without a doubt, gotten a Xai... qq The Spectre is just crap. Definitely not worth the money when all it does is flash some lights at a certain APM. Unless you're the type of guy who likes flashy things, just get something practical. Saves money and gets the job done. dude how can you blame the mouse for getting grimy? I would like to point out that since the sides are plastic they are more durable to actual wear and are MUCH easier to clean off WHEN the grime builds up. On my old Microsoft Intellimouse the side material wore away and kept causing me problems. And it cracks me up how you guys are all Razer product experts after having one bad experience. | ||

The mouse does charge while you have it plugged in but I find that I only get about 12-14 hours of constant use before the battery dies Tracking and performance are incredible in my opinion but I've never had any other gaming mice to compare to. Price was not an issue for me. | ||

i dont want it to wear down or smoothen out after 6 weeks since i paid 40+ dollars for this mousemat. if this is truly the case im probably gonna return it but wtf isnt that gonna be the case for all mouse mats? i used a cloth one for years and the edges strayed out but that was it except the performance compared to the destructor is horrible | ||

I recommend the mx518, cheap, good optics, easy to sue (no drivers even to use the on the fly sens adjustment). The only down side is it is a right handed mouse, as it has the form factor going on. I had a diamondback when they first came out and hated the shape of the mouse. Razer is overpriced imo. | ||

Regarding the plastic side buttons, yeah, a lot of gunk does build up in them. I end up cleaning the area out once a month or so with a staple or something. Regarding mouse pads, why do you want a destructor? I really recommend getting a good mouse pad if you're getting an expensive mouse, but I'm not sure why you want a hard mat. I play on 3500 dpi settings on a cloth mat and haven't noticed any performance issues. Edit -- thanks Semantics for explaining the difference. I don't have a lazer mouse, so that may be why I haven't noticed anything odd. | ||

I have a Deathadder, and on a decent mouse pad it just glides with no resistance. Cheaper mice tend to have gunk build up on the mouse feet or just don't move as smoothly in general.

In other words although optical may like a textured surface which cloth mats provide, lazer mats prefer a nice hadmat. | ||
