Saitek GM2400 Laser Mouse

The Saitek GM2400 Laser Mouse certainly has a unique appearance with its grayscale camouflage. In addition to its crazy color scheme there are some important features to it. It offers three different settings to change your DPI and a quick switch...

Cheap, - 2400 DPI with interchangeable settings, - Six buttons, - Crazy colors, - Teflon feet

Very light, - Feels cheaply made, - Poor software, - Side buttons too close together, - Not good for people with big hands

The Saitek GM2400 Laser Gaming Mouse isn't particularly the greatest mouse that I've used before. However, it would be a nice mouse for anyone looking for high DPI settings or just a cheap gaming laser mouse. You can pick this up for around $35 at many...

Saitek GM2400 Laser Mouse Review

Computer mice have been around since the 1980's and most people reading this site probably remember the first generation of mice that they used. Yes, I'm talking about the horrid ball mice. Thankfully, most of us no longer use a ball mouse, but...

Up to 2400 DPI ; Resolution adjustable on the fly

Not comfortable; feels "tacky ; Inconvenient side button placement ; Lack of documentation on how to use software

Mice are one device that is more about user preference than about actual stats. If you really love that five year old mouse that has a dirt outline of your hand, you probably don't see a need to upgrade to a newer mouse. However, in the past few...

It works

Overall a better than average mouse for the price. There are more note worthy mice out there. Even in the $20 price range. As I said in the cons, it's really durable for the more advent gamer. The extra buttons are amazing. Though the seventh button...

Cheap for what it has. DPI settings, programmable buttons, seven buttons at that ; Smooth response for being so cheap. It works rather well considering ; Drivers are easy to find and software can be useful under the right circumstances

Hard to click buttons. They feel some how rigid ; Small for those with larger hands. It feels dainty with my hands ; The buttons do not like to be abused. For a casual user this is a good mouse. For a gamer, the buttons will take a noticeable wear and...

Worked for a little over a month

This is the maker of MadCat controllers which are junk. Didn't know that until today or I wouldn't have ordered this thing.

Worked well for a month

Turned my PC on today and .....no laser ; Uninstalled drivers, tried on another PC, Updated the firmware....NOTHING

Pretty good

This mouse works great. Ill admit that the buttons are a bit more stiff but its really not that noticiable and no use in taking an egg off for that

The side button config is a little funky if you have big fingers

decent mouse

bought this bc it was cheap and had decent dpi bc my last mouse died 2 days b4 a Modern warfare 2 tournament i was in so i got this mouse and it worked perfectly i ended up placing third with it so im happy i will be replacing it with the razer mamba...

2400 dpi for about $20 hard to go wrong there and it works as said havent had any issues with it yet and hoping it will hold up longer than my last mouse also it looks pretty sweet with the camo like design

none really the mouse just takes some getting used to and u have to work it in a bit bc like the other review said the mouse is kind of hard to click at first

Try it before ya buy it

NewEgg rocks, but this time, I wish I went to a local store to at least try it out. There is absolutely NO way I would've picked this one.

Looks good. Configurable buttons. Smooth pointer control

Primary mouse buttons are MUCH harder to push down (click) than anything you may be used to. User hand-position feels weird. Thumb buttons may accidentally get clicked while working
