Always with the trendy names is Logitech.
For starters, the mouse lives up to its changeable name, with a stealthy matte black and shiny plastic design approach. Fit with an oversized thumb rest too for the weary handed, the buttons along the mouse’s left hand side are all well positioned, and feel brilliant underhand. The metal-tipped scrolling wheel completes the premium, tactile feel. But is it all looks and no substance?
Well, not in the slightest. A 200-12000DPI sensor ensures that even the fastest FPS can be tamed, while the tunable sensor adapts to the surface you’re playing on, be it wood or a fabric mouse pad.

But that’s just a brief over-view. Have a look at the gallery below to see the mouse in its backlit glory and catch the review on Gearburn after we put the mouse through its paces.
