Does this have issues when moving the mouse very fast? I'm a low sens gamer (400 dpi) and with other mice the sensor stops tracking when moving fast.

Yes, I use it for CS:GO. It proves worthy against the best. Also, it's good to know that this mouse has a permanent 450 dpi.

If by accurate you mean "responds to being clicked", I've never had problems. I click, and the action happens. It takes a little bit more force to click than many other mice, though, so it may get annoying if you need the wheel to be easy to press. As for scrolling, there's a tactile little "tick" while scrolling. I.E. it feels bumpy when scrolling, much like many other mice.

I've never had a problem with the scroll wheel. The button that makes it a free wheeled scroll is awesome. This is the best mouse I've ever owned. I don't do any gaming so not sure how well it would work for games.

The tracking can be a little iffy. The DPI supposedly ranges from 800 to 2400 based on the setting, but the tracking accuracy can be a bit poor. I use it on a ANKER mousepad and it performs pretty well for my tastes, but I'm not a PRO gamer or anything. I play FPS, MMO and stuff a lot on it and it works fine for me. You probably want a more gaming-oriented mouse if you're planning on doing hardcore RTS or MOBA gaming though.

Hey Jason, from my experience with all Zowie mice, they do not track well at ALL on any multi-colored pads. I have used the Zowie AM, EC 1 and FK and to no avail did any of them track nicely on any multi-colored pads. Besides the fact, I have never been happier using a FK. I currently use a FK w/ QCK + from SteelSeries, the tracking is awesome. Goodluck :]

Scrolling is fairly quiet - fast scrolling will produce some noise, but not a lot. Clicking is about normal for mice I've used.

It helps. Being able to switch weapons in a bind and using the g shift button to temporarily lower the sensitivity when sniping and instantly go back to normal sensitivity is nice. This is the best mouse I've ever used. Feels great works great and will last for a long time.

I had the same issue in Windows 8.1. There was a microsoft update that caused it to become "jittery" on the screen. Don't know the update, but I ended up using it on a Windows 7 PC and everything is fine. The other thing you can look at is the settings for the mouse itself and turn up the sensitivity, and turn off "enhance pointer precision" (if using windows)

No latency noticed. I use the mouse to play games such as battlefield 4 with no latency.

I use the rival with a fingertip / claw type grip, and it works OK for me. However, as another person answered here, it can be a little unstable or wiggly at times with this grip. I have had an issue with this mouse being a little slippery and I suspect from reading here that it has more to do with the fingertip / claw grip than the mouse itself. However, overall it is not really a major concern, and I am trying to find a mouse pad with more grip to offset this.

i'm jumping into the conversation here, anybody find a solution for the delay/slow middle mouse button reaction? I need a double-middle click for CAD, this mouse is not cutting it. It is replacing my 4 year old MS Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 - excellent btw, just worn out. Was hoping the 3500 was the same mouse, just with BlueTrack.system is brand new, 8g ram etc, drivers new, so performance of the system shouldn't be a factor...

I used this mouse for 2-3 years and the sensor on this mouse is very nice but every once in a while the sensor would skip ever so slightly. But the acceleration, the sensitivity to the clicks, and the programming of the modes is all fantatic. Over all this has to be one of the best mice I have ever owned.

Killawat gave a great explanation. I personally don't use a very high DPI (maybe 1600 at the max) and that is when I'm not gaming and I'm using a very large external monitor (27"). When gaming I use more of 800 - 1200 DPI which for me gives me a decent compromise between quick movements and precise aiming (I mainly do FPS games).

Yes. Download "X Mouse Button Control". You can program the buttons and change the speed. I haven't been able to reprogram the DPI button.. anyone have any luck with that one?

No, this device is built solid, I use it for Quake 3 Deathmatch with Sensitivity maxed out for retardedly fluid Rail Gun sniping at high speeds; way better than high dpi mice but hard to master, after two years of use, being dropped and abused it still works flawlessly, I've been through the Logitech Track mice, the one you're talking about with the thumb driven ball is an isolated thing unique to that Track Mouse, otherwise Logitech is good, but stay away from the M750. The Expert mouse in my own opinion will give you better accuracy in high speed fps games, and insane durability at the price of a learning curve.

Unable to answer sorry as I use a Razer mouse. However, I have found that the performance, response and feel with my mouse are outstanding. Hope this helps.

I have this mouse and the wheel does not turn smoothly but has slight stopping clicks. This scroll wheel in my experience is garbage. Trying to scroll to read and it constantly jumps up and down only to return to the same position no matter how may spins and clicks. Only way to scroll is very slowly and deliberately. Make me want to throw into a wall.
