** OVERCLOCKERS NEEDS REVIEW! **

That was "a quality review" :D I had one of the original Logitech wireless with AA batteries you put in the bottom, was hella weighty compared to nowadays but Logitech have always been very good and that looked a really good mouse in your review. Congrats to all

Thanks :) I think it helped that I maybe had a little more incentive than everyone else. Trying to grow that very little channel of mine :p
 
Just received an email saying my order has been received :D
Awesome, can't wait to review these!

Same, Im not sure how good my mouse review will be, I might lend it to my brother inlaw to get some proper feed back as he is an Overwatch nut.

the headphones I am excited for, I have a set of turtle beach xo4s i can compare them to and also a pair of 800 Elites I can set as an highly unfair bench mark :D

I'm interested to see how i get on with the buttons on the mouse as there seems to be quite the fair few :D some of them look kind of hard to reach.

Not so sure why any mouse would need 16000+ dpi either haha, might have to test that just for a laugh.

Only headset i have which i can compare them to are corsair h2100s, I'm hoping they can perform a lot better as the corsairs are a cheapo wireless pair and i'm not too keen on usb for headphones.
 
Arrived :D:D:D

Right, I feel I've used these long enough now to formulate an opinion.

Lets talk about the mouse first.

Coming from using predominantly ambidextrous mouse in the past this was a change for me as it is a right handed mouse, surprisingly i found this extremely easy to use and much more comfortable to me and has also made me wonder why i haven't gone down this route before. The mouse has a decent size to it and is shaped well, i can fit my hand on it using palm grip without the feel of my fingers overhanging any area of the mouse giving it a more natural fitted feel.

The exterior shell of the mouse is of fairly reasonable quality, with a soft touch top that feels great and hard gloss plastic sides which are fingerprint and dirt magnets. (fan of the former, not so much of the latter)
There is a textured grip area where your thumb rests which while being comfortable i can imagine in long gaming sessions will get quite sweaty and give a more irritating feel.

The buttons on the mouse are for the most part all in place very well and aren't loose at all, which is excellent for a mouse this price. However i do have a problem with the right click being slightly loose compared resulting in a slightly mushy click and sometimes the feeling i'm not even clicking at all with a few cases of dead clicks depending on how high up the mouse i'm pressing the button. This isn't necessarily a problem with the mouse as it could just be the unit i received.

While the mouse has a vast array of buttons which you can remap in the software (I'll get to that in a moment) i found most of them to be useless due to either the position of them or just lack of need.
I feel that if the button infront and behind the scroll wheel as well as the one to the left of the left click where removed it would be just right, for my needs atleast.

Flipping the mouse around reveals the underside which contains the feet, sensor, a button which i have no idea does and the weight adjustment.
The feet cover a pretty decent area of the bottom and glide well however to me this feels defeated by the pads sitting flush with the extruding plastic they are housed in within certain areas, this results in being able to feel the plastic slightly scraping on your mouse pad if you apply pressure on your mouse which I am sure many do whilst in the heat of a game.
On inspection of the pads it also looks as if they may get worn down faster than you may want.

Twisting the smiley face anti-clockwise and then giving the mouse a tap from the top reveals the weight system of the mouse, You are provided with a decent amount of options here although it would have been nice for them to tell you the actual weight of these in grams on the weights themselves. You are also supplied with a plastic case to store any weights you may take out.

The non detachable cable on the mouse is a nice para-cord sleeved cable in red and black, there isn't much to say here apart from it is quite stiff at the moment giving some extra drag to the mouse as i move it around however this may soften up overtime.

Now onto the performance and software of the mouse.

Generally i have no quarrels with the performance of the mouse, it has a nice range to choose from on the dpi with 5 different presets you can set and switch to with the on mouse buttons ranging from 50-16400 dpi in all honesty i have no idea why companies are making mouses with such high dpi as realistically who is going to use 16400 dpi?

In the general tab of the software you'll find the option to map your buttons as well as other options such as double click speed and polling rate, there isn't much i can tell you here apart from the fact it just works and reiterate my opinion that the mouse could do with a few less buttons or at least be less awkwardly placed as you have to really reach press some of them.

Lastly how can we not have a review without talking about RGB as seems to be the trend.

In the software suit you are able to change the colour of the light on the rear of the mouse, you get a good selection of predefined colours as well as the ability to set your own by either inputting a hexcode or selecting from a colour palette. While the selection options are great the actual light on the mouse isn't so great, it doesn't fill the logo on the mouse meaning it doesn't appear as a solid, you can definitely tell its an led bulb (even more so when it is on breathing mode)

So that is my review on the mouse, overall for the price tag of this mouse (£30) i would definitely say it is a competitive option with plenty of features and a pretty good software suit and is definitely a mouse i will continue to use until i find the right wireless mouse for me.

I will update this post later with the review of the headset once i have a bit more time with it as I've been having issues with my microphone input/drivers on my motherboard and not had the chance to test it out properly.

Top review, thanks for the effort!
 
Not a problem, thanks again for the chance to review these :)
I'll post again/update that post tomorrow with a review of the headset.

Cool, maybe pop images in spoilers to avoid the post being too long :) Also if you want to pop any relevant info into the store page reviews to help future potential buyers to make an informed decision then that would be a big help :)

Yeah, i posted a review for it on the store i forgot to add a link though :(

Also added spoiler tags to the images.
 
Great review Powelly, I am ashamed to say that mine have only managed to move about a foot from where I pictured them in my previous post.

I have been super, mental busy all week and Im swamped with take offs, tenders and procurement all weekend :( .

Ill get them reviewed asap.

Just for the record, Although the artwork on the packaging is less than inspiring the grades of materials used seem quite good.
 
Completely forgot to update my review with the headset, will update it later today and post a review on the main site too :)

Not sure where the other reviews are.
 
Just to keep you all updated. I wanted to make sure i used it a decent amount first. I've been taking notes since I opened the package and recording the video this weekend. It's coming :) The headset video will come after that. Its a little less favourable :p
 
Nik i feel like a fraud, the stuff hasnt moved from where I photographed them in post #47. Is there another entrant I can send them on to or a good cause OCUK support I can donate them too? I just do not have time to do a proper review and feel like a scrub every time I see them :-D
