I'd recommend a Logitech G5 over that but they no longer make them. The G500 is the successor to the G5 and is made of pure win. I believe you can get one for around $60 now and you will not replace it. If anything happens to it theres a good warranty on it and Logitech stands behind their products like you wouldn't believe. My G5 failed and they paid for the return shipping to them, sent me a G500 replacement.

I'm kinda biased though I haven't owned any of the Razer mice and I don't think I ever will.
I play Starcraft well, but I got owned by NesTea, should have taken brisk

I can't stand Logitech MX518/G5/G500 shape. Way too bulky. Spectre looks good. How big/heavy is it compared to the Abyssus?

Omg I can't stress this enough; There is so much crap going on in this thread! People claim stuff about the actual basics of the mouse as if they were bad BECAUSE it has extra "cool" features. And I can guarantee you that almost no one has held it and yet even seen the mouse yet...

as others have said, Id go with a salmosa or abyssus. They weigh a lot less than this mouse and weight is far more important for a good rts mouse than apm lighting or fancy stuff like that.


Where do you pull this from? Both the salmosa and the abyssus ARE BIGGER THAN THE SPECTRE. Should be some indicator there telling you that it is probably NOT alot heavier than the two you mention, if at all.


*Grrr* I mostly hate the topic itself because it lends itself to these kinds of posts. A poll about this is just horrible and will help the topic creater in about absolutly no way (except beeing swinged) and the posts themselves are mostly just biased bullshit coming from people with no knowledge. Very very sad. (That doesnt go for all posters in this thread ofc, but the majority...)

I will buy it, and it is simly because there is no other mouse with this type of shape and it is very small and have very good laser WITH 5 BUTTONS (Hate to webbrowse without mouse 4 and 5...) That simple. Steelseries Kinzu that is the smaller version of Xai, has only three buttons and is even abit bigger than spectre - just as a reference.
The rest is just a bonus that you can just turn off if you want anyways and is not the reason I will buy it. I've never liked razer myself but this looks to be something I might like.

I'll let you know what I think of it once I get it. Maybe it blows for all I know, but I sure hope not.

Lastly; the only advice I'd give you for when you purchase something like a mouse would be to go over in your head what you yourself feel is what you want shapewise (ambidextrious or ergonomic), size, Do you have big or small hands etc? Weight? Do you like it to have some resistance and dense feel to it or do you want it to be hyper fast to move around? How many buttons do you need?
After that you just check out different reviews of people that have actually used the mouse and then make a decision based on more data and a more concrete feeling.

Anyway, good luck finding a mouse!

used these

and the accompanying keyboard + headset at Blizzcon and the only thing I can say is that they all sucked pretty bad. They all felt very very cheap and flimsy :/

This mouse is pretty uncomfortable, unless you like square-shaped mouses with a plastic feel, the apm techonology is pretty overrated.
