SteelSeries Rival 700 review

 

Tactile feedback in your palm ; Modular design ; Deep customization capabilities ; Built-in OLED screen

No left-handed model

The Rival 700 is one of the best PC gaming mice we’ve seen in a long time. Even forgetting the fact that it provides tactile feedback and swappable components, it just feels solid and precise when we’re getting our frag on in Doom and Unreal Tournament...

SteelSeries Rival 700

 

With tactile alerts, a modular design, and an OLED screen, the SteelSeries Rival 700 gaming mouse is functional and fun, but adding modular components can get pricey.

Modular design, RGB lighting, OLED screen, and tactile alerts are novel approaches to gaming personalization. Adjustable sensitivity.

Additional modular components are expensive. For right-handed use only.

Conclusion All in all, the Rival 700 is a gaming mouse that takes a novel approach to personalization. While it may be argued that the tactile alerts, OLED screen, and RGB lighting are mostly gimmicks, they can serve a functional purpose and add a bit...

SteelSeries Rival 700 Review (Page 1 of 4)

 

A few weeks ago, I was hanging out with some of my friends, when suddenly someone I did not know jumped into a conversation with me. About ten minutes later, I realize the guy just would not stop talking, even though I was clearly not interested in...

SteelSeries Rival 700 (w/ OLED display) Mouse Review

 

SteelSeries has earned itself a very good reputation for its peripherals, and what better way to put A mouse with an in-built OLED display? Useful or just a gimmick?

Very comfortable.

OLED display is a gimmick.

The Rival 700 is certainly a good mouse, with the tactile alerts from the vibrating motor being an innovative and genuinely useful feature. However, the OLED display is a gimmick and reduces the overall value of the mouse.
