MOUSE - Stiff cable. PAD - None

Does the new shape take some time to get used to; I would say yes. Your hand memory of how a standard mouse feels gets all whacked out when you first grab the MS-3 mouse. After using it for a while you start to get use to the new feeling and begin to...

Comfortable ; Sleeved cable ; Nice software ; Buttons

Price ; Small hands wont reach all buttons ; No weights

This is an excellent mouse that sells for around 80$ in the states, I think the pricetag is a tad to steep. Overall though this is a very nice mouse with excellent performance, nice features and tons of buttons.

Superb ergonomics, Good build quality, Lots of buttons, Feature rich, Nice design, Good driver suite, Great tracking, Two different high-performance surfaces, Base design is very good, Comfortable to use, Perfect glide and control, Compatible with most...

Large and slightly heavy, Pricey!, Some buttons are not that useful, Balance of the mouse is not perfect, Not the newest generation sensor, Scratches show easily, Can be noisy when dirty

Comfortable ; A lot of thought put into every detail ; Features really do let you focus on your game ; DPI/Sensitivity/Angle Snapping/Button Assignments/LEDs all customizable ; Has a sense of style - great design throughout ; Very comfortable grip for...

Palm grip only ; Palms/mouse will get sweaty ; Macro editor needs to be little more powerful

They got it right. It isn't perfect, and won't be for claw or fingertip grip users, but the MS-3 is a well-constructed device with a focus on giving you an advantage in-game. It does that quite well - better than most, I'd say.

FUNC, a Californian based company, recently went through a bit of a revamp and revival. Having been relatively quiet for a number of years toward the end of 2012 they re-launched with a new range of gameplay surfaces the Surface 1030.

At least 8 easily accessible programmable buttons ; Ergonomic Shape ; OMRON Switches ; Three independent profiles ; LED accent lighting

Weak mouse wheel ; Inflexible macro creator ; Limited number of possible macros ; Wide base causes more drag than some alternatives

If we're honest we were not wowed by the Surface 1030XL, and so approached this review with some trepidation. At first glance the MS-3 appeared to be a simple re-badge of one of the hundreds of generics already around, but the reality is very different.

Excellent build quality ; highly sensitive ; sized for bigger hands ; tracks well on a variety of surfaces ; 2 year warranty ; great cable design ; not overloaded with useless gimmicks

smaller hands may find the girth intimidating ; A lot of competition at this price

Kitguru says: A cracking mouse which will suit the larger people out there, like myself!
