Good Sensor, Terribly Unstable

 

It has the best sensor of any gaming mouse. I have tried virtually every one, being a serious counter strike player. Liftoff distance is incredibly low, and the mouse if very comfortable

Incredibly inconsistent performance. The polling rate is never stable on my computer, and many people have noted this issue online. The mouse is also prone to sudden death, as mine did. I had the mouse for two weeks, and it suddenly became very...

Great Tracking, Kind of Narrow

 

Overall one of the best mice I have ever used. Great all-around and excellent for gaming. I think if they modified the design slightly so the bottom of the mouse is slightly narrower than the top it would be the perfect mouse. If they come out with a...

Fantastic tracking. Better than any mouse I have used (CM storm, steelseries, razer, MIE, WMO). Had no issues putting the cursor exactly where I wanted it intuitively and with next to no jitter. Able to hold on target (FPS) scoped or tap-firing, and it...

The design of the mouse may leave something to be desired for some ; It is slightly wider at the bottom than the top and makes it a little more difficult to pick up than some mice, such as Razers that tend to have "indents" or "overhangs" of some sort...

Absolutely the best

 

This is absolutely my favorite mouse of all time. I had a CM Spawn, then switched to the Deathadder. I loved both, but decided to try out the Zowie thanks to a solid recommendation by a pro gamer friend. I was scared of not liking it much because of...

There is literally nothing wrong with this mouse. You may not like that you the DPI switch is on the bottom, but it doesn't bother me one bit

ZOWIE GEAR AM

 

4/5 stars because it isn't the mx518 and I am bitter about this. Really, it's a great mouse though.

I have been using the mouse for 3 weeks now on an Xtrac XL black "nanofiber" pad. It responds very well in FPS games (CS:GO specifically) and has been great for all other uses. I have large hands so I use a claw grip for this mouse. I would prefer if...

The black top picks up oils from your hands very easily and will look discolored after some regular use ; The mouse wheel is stiff. I wouldn't say that it is uncomfortable, just noting the fact. The left and right clicks are perfect. The customizable...

ZOWIE GEAR AM

 

If you are looking for a gaming mouse, this is what you buy, other brands offer gimmicks and designs that might seem appealing, yet offer no functional advantages. This mouse offers the only advantage that matters ( particularly for FPS) - superior...

This mouse has the absolute best optical lens available, that's what you are paying for, and it's worth every penny ; There simply are no alternatives to the tracking quality and lift off on this mouse

A little slim for my very large hands

ZOWIE GEAR AM

 

Buy it.

Finally a replacement for the intellimouse. The tracking is flawless and lift off distance very low. I've had tons of mice and have always been looking for something that actually beats the intellimice for years. This is it

Doesn't have omron switchs, still they aren't bad

a purist masterpiece

 

I've been on "the search" for years. IME 3.0, IMO 1.1a, three Deathadders, a mx518, g400, g9x (whoops), Zowie EC2. I was never convinced I had found the one which would allow me to stop until I used the AM. Sounds like an ad, but it's true. So far,...

FINALLY: Lightweight. Lowest lift-off I've possibly ever seen on a "modern" mouse. Grips similar to a 1.1 or a smaller Xai - no unnecessary curvature, allowing my hand to hold it however it likes instead of catering to odd curvature. I haven't thought...

Malfunction speed is a little lowish in contrast with comparably performing mice (3.2m a second or so I've read). I've yet to hit it and I'm pushing a 40 cm/180. Scroll wheel feels awful in comparison with, say, the Deathadder, but serviceable....
