> 24 hourI’ve never been huge on wireless mice for computers, especially for gaming, but I was pleasantly surprised by this one. The mouse paired easily and since I have had zero issues with connectivity nor have I experienced any kind of delay or lag with movement. The sensitivity is highly and easily customizable and the side wings add an interesting feel to the mouse (though I do like that they’re removable if I’m not in the mood) The mouse keeps its charge for about a week for me, that’s with a little bit of use during the day and a few hours of gaming each night. I am going to look into a charging pad as that is an option with this mouse, which is really cool. Overall I am impressed with the quality and comfort this mouse provides. The easy sensitivity controls mean the non gamers in the house don’t have to whine about hating the mouse when they use the PC, they can just quickly adjust it themselves.

> 24 hourI bought it for $50 instead of $130 and have no complaints. Have an HP OMEN laptop and like the fact I can use the Omen Light app to sync the keyboard and mouse lighting. If you see it for sale, its pretty great.

> 24 hourIve tried dozens of gaming mice, both tethered and wireless. They all have their positives and negatives and this one is no exception. What I like the most about the Omen is the hand comfort. It truly cradles your hand and I love that it has removable wings to rest your thumb and pinky on--a great feature. The mouse is incredibly precise and has zero connection issues (such a big deal as Ive used some wireless Razer mice that would drop connection at the worst possible times). I also love that I can charge it on the same Qi charging pad I use for my iPhone and Airpods. Everything can plop onto the same surface! Fantastic! The only thing I dont love about the Omen Photon is that it doesnt give you a low battery notification. Would love to see this implemented in Windows 10s Notification Center. Sometimes I forget to drop it onto the Qi charger and it craps out mid-day. Other than the notification issue, this is a fantastic mouse that I have no hesitation giving 5 glowing stars to!

> 24 hourFinally, a wireless gaming mouse that equals the performance of a wired one. this mouse is fast. The estimated battery life is an impressive fifty hours. This seems accurate and it charges via any Qi-enabled surface. The lights and buttons are programmable. The finger rests are removable and the mouse is ambidextrous. It takes some playing around to find what conformation suits you best. Dedicated gamers will find the eleven different buttons useful; I found them gratuitous. I enjoy games but am not rabid. My brothers however are and absolutely adored this mouse. It is a pricey proposition especially if you spring for the related mousepad. But the convenience of fewer cables and superior performance makes this a winner.

> 24 hourDouble sided pad is dope. Pretty penny for whats more or less an RGB mousepad with charging capabilities. But as always, ill buy anything with the words Omen imprinted on it to match the setup.

> 24 hourPrior to getting this, my computer was hooked up to a basic mouse that was wired. Moving it around was on the clunky side, not to mention the wire getting caught or snagged all the time when I needed to move it around. Comes in a nice telescopic box that holds the mouse. I thought at first it was big, but it fits in my hand better than I expected. The wings are attached magnetically, which you can take off, or put on more streamline edges which are in the box. I like the wings as they are flush with the surface of the table and feel like I am gliding around. It comes with a USB to charge, but its fully charged out of the box. I plugged the USB dongle and it was instantly recognized by my computer and it was ready work in minutes. Awesome! Since the OMEN is a gaming mouse, there are going to be a lot more controls than a regular mouse. There are a right and left standard buttons, a wheel, and two small buttons on the center top. These are all programmable for whatever game you are playing. I have been playing Grim Dawn this past month and I dont think there needs to be much programming on the mouse, as much of it is done on the keyboard. The whole mouse lights up and the designs are shown off nicely, and will continue to change colors as you use it. It will shut down when you stop using it for a period of time, and light up again as well. The wheel as well also lights up and it has a Tron look to the whole thing. But I have been using it for over a week straight right now and it feels awesome in my hands, and moves perfectly in synch. I feel as though its response to my hand is exactly how I feel I am doing it. Overall I am really impressed with this mouse. Probably the best one I ever used.
