Cooler Master Storm Xornet Gaming Mouse Review

There are plenty of input devices in the market that are supposedly aimed for the budget conscious and designed to be a “no-frills” gaming mouse. Every manufacturer's definition of what features a basic or entry level gaming mouse should have, however,...

Lightweight and easy to move ; Ergonomic and comfortable shape for claw grip users ; Long-life Omron switches ; Ferrite choke on USB cable ; Jitter-free on all DPI settings ; Good tracking performance on cloth or textured surfaces ; On-the fly...

No strain-relief protection at the base of the cable ; Positive acceleration and ~4.8mm lift-off distance ; Side button location would be better moved a few millimeters back

Cooler Master did a good job, once again, with creating another claw-grip mouse. The CM Storm Xornet is essentially a stripped-down version of the CM Storm Spawn but is not in any way an afterthought. Cooler Master kept the long-life Omron micro...

Decent mouse, not for the hard core

Mouse is ergonomic and fits like a glove in medium-small sized hands. Smooth operation and looks nice. Wife loves hers

Right clicker spring died less than a year out. I play lots of Leage of legends so the clicking is intense but it is noticeably dead

COOLER MASTER SGM-2001-BLON1

I would only recommend this mouse if you find the shape to be absolutely ideal. 1 star because of the poor sensor. You can literally use the mouse with it never contacting a desk/mousepad.

Surface material of the left and right click buttons feel good. Side buttons in good location and have good click feel (as do the left and right buttons). Side grips are made of a durable material. Excellent feet allow for smooth gliding

Worst part about the mouse is the infrared sensor. The cursor will move when the mouse is lifted up to 3 mm off the table. This is an huge issue because cursor movement is unpredictable when the mouse is lifted ; Side rubber grips are slippery

Yes for claw, no for paw

If you use a claw grip or your hands are tiny, get this mouse. I have average hands and if I palm it my fingers hang of the front of the mouse.

Very well designed. I have gome on multiple 8+ hr gaming sprints with ease

One, that being the side buttons. I would personally like them lower, but thats just me being lazy, so i wont take off a star

Excellent Mouse!

At first the LOD (Lift Off Distance) was WAY to high, almost a cm. But after doing a little research on the interwebs, I found that this is a common issue with the default firmware installed and a quick flash to v75 (recommended) fixes that...

Excellent mouse! Great sensitivity, the three DPI settings are perfect for my preferences ; Price ; Quality ; Overall Feel

Periodically just my fingers weight will trigger the right click button (and just to note, I'm not a big guy by any means)

great mouse

Make sure you download the firmware updates or you will have serious problems on FPS games with Lift off distance...

Awesome fit for a claw style grip ; Great price, Got it for like $23 shipped

Scroll wheel is a little stiff...but i'm sure it just needs to be broken in

wonderful little thing.

Small, light weight, just enough buttons, smooth tracking, good mid-end DPI and cheap

Shape if a wee bit odd and with big hands changing the DPI using the given buttons takes a little getting used to

Surprisingly good feel to this mouse, great value

Not a fan of the branding all over the mouse, but who really cares.

I bought this mouse for a friend who needed a new mouse cheaply... decided to try it out first ; The feel of the mouse is just so comfortable, it's very responsive for gaming, it's easy to make quick and accurate movements and clicks compared to most...

I wish it was heavier, or maybe 5-10% larger
