Had High hopes for this mouse

I can not recommend this mouse because of the major problem I had with it, maybe I just got a malfunctioning one but the things that I didn't like are enough for me not to try another one.

The build quality and feel of this mouse was nice and it felt really solid in the hand. The weights were nice and easy to get to if you wanted to adjust them. The nylon braided cord offered little resistance when moving the mouse giving an almost...

Because of the way I hold my mouse clicking the the left button resulted in a small vibration through my finger, this doesn't sound like much but after a couple hours it was like finger nails on a chalkboard. The tracking on the mouse wasn't as crisp...

Simple, Clean, and Comfortable

- - This product is great for anyone building on a budget, or who wants a well-built mouse for a low cost.

- • Clean design • Matte finish to prevent smudging • Cloth cord reduces coiling • Ability to change the weight of the mouse • Three extra buttons for navigation/gaming • Software is simple and fairly easy to use • DPI switch allows multiple speed and...

- • Fire logo can be confused with grime on the top of the mouse when in use • 3x fire button next to the left mouse button is pointless • You must use the software to have multiple profiles • Difficult to set which software profiles correspond with...

Great mouse

I used to use Razor DeathAdder, but it just didn't feel comfortable as I wanted. Since I've switched to FireGlider, it feels a lot better. I would say DeathAdder and FireGlider are very similar in terms of comfort and precision, but for me FireGlider...

Mouse is very comfortable and precise.

No cons. Maybe a little big for a small hand like mine.

SHARKOON 000SKFGO

I wanted a decent gaming mouse that wouldn't cost an arm and a leg, and I also wanted one that looks and feels like a normal mouse, not some oddly-shaped brick thing that I would have to get used to using. The FireGlider meets both of these criteria...

Ergonomic, programmable buttons are easy to set up through the provided software, ability to switch between configuration presets on the fly, looks nice, overall a great deal considering the relatively low price point

Doesn't work with software

I know I could return it and replace it, but now I'm soured on the product.

Feel comfortable, nice weight, dpi setting works well

Got it specifically to use the onboard memory feature and 'Mouse Editor' software, but after trying it on 3 separate computers every time I open the Mouse Editor software I receive a 'Mouse Not Detected' error, even though the mouse is clearly working....
