Product DescriptionThe SteelSeries Ikari Laser mouse features programmable macros for RTS and MMO gamers and a high precision sensor suitable for FPS gamers. Furthermore the Ikari Laser is completely driverless which enables the mouse to remember settings and macros when plugged into tournament computers - without installing any drivers or software.The advanced SteelSeries XY2 laser engine supports resolution settings with increments of only 1 CPI, which for the first time ever gives the user the ability to fine tune the mouse exactly to his personal reaction pattern. Set your windows and in-game sensitivity to default and set the CPI on your hardware instead of forcing software calculations.With the built in LED display in the bottom of the Ikari Laser you are able to adjust your CPI anytime, anywhere - you are completely independent of software or drivers.The gaming grade engine used in the SteelSeries Ikari Laser utilizes a new way of analyzing tracking, reaching 40.000 SPS (or around 5 times the speed of conventional laser technology).

Rating: - Great Gaming and General Purpose Mouse
My Logitech MX1000 Laser Mouse quit charging, so I had to find a replacement. I play a fair amount of WoW, and this mouse works great for it. It's nice enough that I'm considering buying one to use at work too.
I paired it with a Razer eXactMat and eXactRest Bundle - Mouse Pad and Wrist Rest and it's amazingly smooth. Barely any effort for quick precise movements. Plus the precision is adjustable without software. This mouse doesn't have all the fancy features of some of the competitors. ... Read More
Rating: - This mouse is horrible, SteelSeries support is even worse.
This mouse lasted for less than a week of very light use. It was a decent mouse while it worked, but after a few days the right mouse button mysteriously thought that it was constantly being pressed.
Mechanically, the button appears to be fine. It canbe pressed as normal, but even when my hand is completely off the mouse, it was sending a constant stream of right button clicks to my computer. This makes the mouse completely unusable. I eventually had to give up and connect my (far less expensive) ... Read More
Rating: - excelent gaming mouse
i had mx510 before this item. now my gaming skill increased so much better. Only think you need to to reduce your sensitivity if you are playing fps games. when you et used you will be so much better.
Rating: - Great Ergonomic Mouse for general right hand use
As a professional ergonomist (but not a gamer), I judge the overall ergonomics benefits of this mouse far far outweigh the negative (especially for gaming) of it being somewhat difficult to lift up for repositioning. It has become my mouse of choice, and I have tried many many mice. The thumb support and 4th finger and pinky support along with it's general contours, sensitivity control and well positioned Back button, put this mouse ahead of all or almost all other mice on the market. I would strongly recommend ... Read More
Rating: - Great Design
Unlike other gaming mice i've owned, the Ikari seems to add all the best features and leaves-out all the annoying ones others like to bundle-in.
I finally have the right balance of physical and software controls I've been wanting. I'm not sure who develops their drivers and technologies, but I feel like I have more accuracy and the mouse aims exactly where I want it be, and not where the computer thinks I'm aiming at.
The grip is made of a great material, and ergonomic layout is perfect.
