Biggest complaint (or rather, what I'm not used to) so far is still that the buttons are a bit stiff. If the buttons took the same pressure to actuate as the abyssus, I would say this is close to the perfect mouse. But as it is, I'll use this for a few more weeks and see if I get used to the buttons. | ||

A couple missed rally points and things like that throughout the games but it's a bit moreso due to getting used to the mouse than anything. Haven't noticed anything too weird with the 1600 DPI setting, but again, I'm not really using the mouse for anything that requires the cursor to be super precise.

Yea, they are extremely crisp and tactile, and have a very satisfying click to them. It's just that it takes a little too much force to depress, at least compared to what I'm used to. I don't notice it during normal computer use but when I'm spamming clicks in SC2 the difference in force is required is noticeable vs. my abyssus and other mice I've used. | ||

The razor mice are known for their really good mouse buttons. Have you ever used a kinzu before? If so, are the switches similar in the sense of the force needed to press down and click? Ive always felt that was a little issue with the kinzu and im wondering if it's as I think it is on the mico. | ||

Yup, I do own a Kinzu as well. I bought it to see how it compared to my Abyssus, and after using the Kinzu for less than a day I went back to my Abyssus because I didn't like the Kinzu's mouse skates (plastic, didn't glide well) and also its buttons, which I felt were harder to press than my Razer and also not as tactile. After comparing the Mico and the Kinzu, I would say that the Mico's buttons actually require more force to depress than then Kinzu (so in terms of force required it would be Mico > Kinzu > Abyssus), BUT the Mico's buttons nevertheless "feel" better in the sense that they are more clicky and give a better response. So I would give the edge to the Mico in that regard. | ||

I loved my MS IE 3.0, that's why I think I'm gonna buy DA instead. | ||

The shape is pretty much the whole point of this mouse. It's the smallest and lightest mouse on the gamer's market at the moment. I still haven't recieved mine. I can't wait! I ordered a Zowie mousepad to go along with it, as well as the Roccat mouse bungee ripoff. | ||

Btw, is this not in the US yet or where is everyone getting theirs from? As far as I can tell, it's not out in the US yet. Zowie initially said June 1st, then it came out in other countries in June, while Zowie said (on their facebook page) that they expected it to be available in North America on July 1st. Still no release here though, but then again it's been a holiday weekend. I got mine from ebay, shipped from China. After using it for 4 or 5 days now, and having an abyssus (which is more or less the same as the Salmosa from what I've read), I would say I'm still undecided whether or not I'm going to stick with the Mico long-term. It's a great, great mouse, but the Abyssus might suit me a bit better because it has a lighter click and I've gotten used to that. The shape of the Mico fits my hands almost perfectly though, so it's a tough decision. | ||

My only complaint is the difference between 800 and 1600 dpi is too big. I'd like maybe a 1200 dpi option in between. But I can deal with that by using 800 for normal usage and 1600 with low ingame sensitivity in SC2. May be temporarily trading mice with my friend who owns an abyssus soon, since we both want to try the other's mouse! :o | ||
