NZXT Avatar S gaming mouse review

The NZXT Avatar S is a low-profile, lightweight, inexpensive gaming mouse that even works for left-handed gamers.

At first, the Avatar S was a bit uncomfortable for gaming due to its narrow width. My normal habit is to grip the mouse on the sides with my thumb and pinky, lay my index and middle fingers on the left and right buttons, and either lay my ring finger...

NZXT Avatar S Laser Mouse

Stereotypes can be quite hilarious. Whether we like it or not, we tend to know a few of these racial tendencies for every race out there. Heck, it doesn't even need to be a race. I can say the phrase, "old married couple", and a small list in your head...

NZXT Avatar S Gaming Mouse

Updated optical sensor looks to offer gaming precision at a good price.

The Avatar S is NZXT's latest foray into the extremely competitve gaming mouse market, traditionally dominated by only a few companies. A tall order, to be sure for NZXT, but the Avatar S was a pleasant surprise for its price.

NZXT Avatar S Gaming Mouse Review

Final Thoughts NZXT has come out with another gaming mouse and it does the job. If you are looking for a no-frills gaming-grade mouse that is just that a mouse then this is the perfect mouse for you. I found it to be a great mouse for shooters and...

– Simple nofrills mouse, – Ability to turn the LED’s off, – Adjustable DPI, – Available in white and black versions

– Other mice with more options available for the same price, – Low DPI settings, – The white version can get dirty easily, – Not that heavy for a gaming mouse

NZXT Avatar S Gaming Mouse

When it comes to mice there are several big brands on the market and they all have several models, which should you buy?

Fast ; Comfortable ; For left and right handed ; For smaller and bigger hands ; Price

Missing support for back of the hand

This mouse is great, but there is an “IF”…which is this; IF you don't mind a mouse that is straight and not shaped for right or left hand. It works great for gaming and normal daily computer usage and I have also found it to be good for people with...

NZXT Avatar S Gaming Mouse Review

The Avatar S is an even smaller variant of the original design, ideal for gamers that prefer a thinner and more low-profile mouse.

The NZXT Avatar S is designed for gamers that prefer the feel of a narrow mouse with a low-profile, making it ideal for gamers with smaller or thinner hands. During the course of our testing I was able to use the Avatar S for a few days, both in and...

NZXT Avatar S Review

Are you sick and tired of your current mouse? Maybe you are not able to get the kills that you know you should be able to in your favorite first person shooter because your current mouse is not able to move across your screen as quick as it should be...

DPI Customization (limited to three pre-sets) ; Longer Design

What is there to say about the NZXT Avatar S? Well for starters, the fact that NZXT decided to use a 1600 DPI optical sensor on the mouse is always a plus — a higher DPI value on your mouse is going to allow you to quickly move across your screen and...
