Just to start with I have tried to limit my review to those area's not covered by By Zahid on 1 July 2014 as I think he covers alot of the area's in word which I would have used. When my Naga Epic started to double click every time and navigating became horrible to say the least. I decided to purchase a new mouse. Choice, choices, the two main competitors at that moment were Razer and Logitech, specifically Naga and G600. However being limited in the money department I decided to shop around and came across this mouse, the UtechSmart Venus 16400 DPI gaming mouse. After looking at the reviews on the internet, I decided that at half the price of theG600 and Naga, I would give it a shot. The item came promptly and in surprisingly good packaging for the cost (Not sure, why I was surprised). Opened up to find a premium quality mouse, functional in design and personally better feeling than the Naga, which I previously used. The feel of the surfaces are comfortable and switches feel nice to the touch. The side pad has the same angled keys, as the G600, but the Venus not covered by a full cover like the Logitech. The number keys are easily accessible and the thumb rest is a great design thought. I find with larger hands it is comfortable to play for extended sessions and does not look out of place with the rest of my gaming gear. A few little extra’s I would like to comment on, the DPI switch on the fly is really nice and the different colour on the mouse wheel identifying the profile you are on is a plus within the software. The software needs polishing up a bit graphically, but still does what is required and more than enough profiles for you to tweak. Very happy overall competitor to the G600 directly and better than the Naga in functionality and feel but misses the design and completeness of the synapse software. Will be looking at this brand again for another purchase (hopefully not soon for my mouse). PS Make sure you attach the 3M Strips supplied else your settings will be all wrong and you will not have the correct and intended usage out of this mouse.

Blown away by this mouse! its extremely comfy to use, from the rubber texture down to the ergonomic design, Its therapeutic to use its that nice... at its price point its an incredible buy!, its contenders are close to and over double the price of this! is there a difference in quality? well ive used these high priced contenders and the answer is yes but its marginal and most certainly not 2x better quality!... this is the first item I have purchased from UtechSmart.. and im always a bit wary of buying from new outfits especially budget ones!. but im VERY impressed, the software is fast and does the job, its very simple to use and your up and running in seconds, windows picked the mouse up instantly and used windows drivers with no issue until i installed the utech software... its wonderfully packaged and come with a set of spare feet which i was very pleased to see... the side buttons are grate usual use in the OS also, ive set some of the side buttons to things like copy/paste and show desktop, which is awesome to have at your fingertips, the lower (rear most) buttons are a little harder to get at but you get used to it with time and the nack ive found is to use the tip of your thumb for the front buttons and the joint in your thumb for the rear most buttons... all buttons have a satisfying click to them and you know you have pressed that button, the mouse wheel is nice with a rubber tread running the center of the wheel, it feels substantial and well built, i hear lot of complaints that it doesn't have a left/right clickable wheel but ive never used this feature on any of my other mice that had this feature, i find it cumbersome to use TBH and it irritates me that 2 buttons have been wasted here, so i don't miss this at all, in fact im pleased its not a feature here.. i honestly have nothing bad to say about this mouse, its very.. very nice! if i was to be hyper picky it would be that it has a braided cable which i find heavy and more hassle than there worth IMO, but that's more a industry thing ATM.. braided cables seem to be the in thing for some odd reason but each to there own i guess...... i will and with this... if i was Logitech i would be worried! very worried... because no longer will they be able to sell there overpriced products that are only of average quality.. i will be watching Utech for future products... impressed..... very impressed

Llevo 2 días con el, es algo grande comparado a los que solía usar, pero no tiene nada de malo en ese aspecto, creo que es similar en tamaño al scimitar de corsair. En mi caso la caja vieno con el raton, el cable, el receptor inalambrico usb, el manual, una tarjeta con un key usb (no es una memoria, y cuando lo insertas ejecuta comandos para abrir la pagina de los drivers), y un repuesto de calcomanias deslizantes para la parte de abajo del raron. El software es muy simple, pero parece muy útil, yo solo lo he usado para cambiar el color del RGB. Ahora dire unos detalles a considerar: El RGB cambia en todas las áreas iluminadas del ratón (no se puede cambiar el color por zona), en mi caso no es muy importante y depende de gustos. A pesar de que el RGB cambia en todas las zonas del ratón, el color no es muy consistente, especialmente la luz blanca (pongo de ejemplo una imagen con la luz blanca). Los 4 indicadores de DPI no son RGB, son rojos, no afecta pero depende de gustos. El USB que vino en la tarjeta ejecuta comandos para abrir la página de descargas (una de drive por cierto), hubiese sido mejor que ya tuviera el software descargado listo para instalar. Por lo demás, creo que es un raton de buena calidad.

Been using my Deathadder and G15 mouse for years - thought I would try a cheaper alternative Mouse is solid (does not feel plasticky) and also a good weight with all weights used. lots of buttons on side, useful for MMOs, not really needed for FPS gaming. Otherwise a nice mouse to have came bundled well in packaging with drivers

Mouse ottimo per gli mmorpg però c'è da sfatare un mito se sei un giocatore di fps e stai leggendo qui bene . Io lo uso soprattutto per giocare a gli fps poi per streammare ci sono 12 tasti programmabili un tasto vicino il click sinistro con fuoco di tre colpi anche quello puoi impostarlo come vuoi, i dpi puoi metterli a tuo piacimento, i pesetti da aggiungere oppure anche rimuoverli , 5 settaggi personalizzabili a tuo piacimento per i vari giochi che fai qualità prezzo ottima ah si dimenticavo ha anche il suo programma per settarlo ovviamente

Buyer beware - if you live outside of the US, be prepared to pay twice as much to return (or more). Reason for return - cord is VERY stiff, makes it difficult to use. If you lift your hand off, mouse moves as stiff cable pushes it. Too bad as the mouse itself is nice, but the cord ruins it.

Como buen gamer, he pasado por varias empresas de mouse de juego, como Logitech, que por años use el G502. Pasando por los Razer Naga como el Trinity y el V2 Pro gamer. Entre algunos otros. La verdad es un mouse que deja hacer una fácil configuración de las teclas, con un programa muy amigable e intuitivo. En ese entonces el precio fue excelente. Actualmente el mismo se ha duplicado con muchos proveedores, pero es un excelente mouse que compite con los de mayor precio sin problemas.
