Redragon M901 Gaming Mouse RGB Backlit MMO 18 Macro Programmable Buttons with Weight Tuning Set, 12400 DPI for Windows PC Computer (Wired, White)

Pros: -The $30ish dollar pricetag for this makes it easily half the price of its main competitor, the Razer Naga. I feel like Nagas quality has been going downhill the last few years, and a Naga Razer was only lasting me around 12 months with every day normal use. Im not mean to my mice, the Naga just didnt hold up. I gambled on this because I thought, Even if this DOES break after a year, thats way better than paying $80+ for the same amount of use from a Naga. I got a few years of use out of my M901 and when I had a minor issue with it, I immediately replaced it with another. -It has mappable buttons, you can remap these to whatever your heart desires. I predominantly use this an an MMO gaming mouse to play FFXIV, and its perfect for that. I admittedly dont use most of the buttons except for the numberpad ones on the side, but its useful for that. -Speaking of the side buttons, they have a nice sort of concave/inverted tip to them, and this makes them very easy to use and differentiate which rows your on. -Its a little on the smaller side, which for myself (a person with small hands that most gaming mice arent designed for) is actually a very nice perk. Bigger mice make my carpal tunnel worse, so this slightly smaller one is nice. -They recently started packaging these in reusable tacklebox type cases so if you want to travel with it, it very neatly fits in this compact hard case. -It has weights in it, so you can get a more custom feel out of your mouse. Cons: -I dont particularly like the rough texture that they coat it with, it makes my hands feel oddly dry, a bit like touching the rougher sort of microfiber clothes. Its not a dealbreaker for me, and after a few months of use, it will wear down enough its less noticeable. -Even with my small hands, I sometimes find my pinky can drag a little off the side, so just be aware of that if its a thing that bothers you. This might heavily depend on how you hold your mouse too, so this may just be a me thing, and I definitely dont hold it against Red Dragon. --- This is the second one of these Ive owned, and I only replaced the first one because after years of use, it started to hold left click a little bit, which was really only noticeable when I was highlighting text to copy/paste. Im sure this is an easily fixable issue, and it didnt even do it that often, but I didnt want to mess with it too much considering I can just get a brand new one for $30. All in all, Red Dragon is making very good quality products at a fraction of Razers price tag, so if youre wanting to try a gaming mouse but dont have the dosh to fork over for other Razers products, seriously consider giving Red Dragon products a try. The price tag makes this a very nice entry level for anyone even looking to try a MMO-style gaming mouse.

For the price, you cant beat it. It doesnt feel quite as high quality as my old logitech, but it actually works, unlike the logitech. I like the programmable fire button on the left side of the top of the mouse. The only real aspect that I dont like that much is the fact that the color for the LED on the scroll wheel is not linked to the LEDs for the rest of it. That light changes with the DPI profile you are using, with choices between yellow, blue, pink, green and red. So, if you want to match everything up, you have to set the DPI you will usually use to the corresponding color that you want. It would be much better if there were an option in the included software to link the scroll LED color with the rest of the LEDs. You can also set the rest of the LEDs to any color you can think of, but not the scroll wheel. It works on every surface I have tried. It works on glossy surfaces, rough surfaces, mouse pads (obviously), pant legs, my face (which I just tried because I was thinking of places to test it), carpet, etc. Most of the people reading these reviews are probably worried about the durability of such a cheap mouse. Well, I plugged mine in on 8/9/2016 and as of 12/11/2016, it still works and looks exactly as it did when I first purchased it. I use it quite a bit because not only am I a gamer, I do a lot of work at home right on this computer. Overall, I am pleased with my purchase. Update 10/30/2018 After over two years, the mouse is at the end of its life. A few months ago, the scroll wheel started randomly not responding. Today, the whole mouse shuts off randomly. It will work fine, then suddenly all the LEDs shut off, and the mouse completely stops working. After a second or two, it comes back. Ive tried it on more than one computer and it does the same thing. Two years isnt a terrible life for a cheap mouse, but its not spectacular. I guess Ill leave it at four stars simply because of the price.

I had a Death Adder and loved it but felt I needed more buttons as I wanted to get away from the reach of my G key macros from my keyboard. I felt I could be more efficient with the extra mouse buttons. I checked Amazon and ran across the Redragon lines. Unknown to me but they looked pretty good. I decided though I had some christmas gift cards from BB and I decided I loved my Adder so much why not go Naga. I tested it on the setup at BB and it felt alright albeit a bit smaller than the Adder but I went with it. I got home and within 20 minutes I seen my error. The shape of the naga is not the same as the Adder. What I mean the curvature of an Adder curves all the way to the mouse pad. The naga at the end of its curve has about a 1 drop to the mousepad. Very uncomfortable for my play style and worried long term use might cause issues in my wrist. I immediately took it back and got a new mechanical keyboard that I was planning on adding eventually so I could get the use out of my gift cards. This left me with still wanting a mouse so as soon as I got home I looked at Redragon again. I looked at the picture gallery of the mouse to see how its curvature worked. The pictures showed me it was similar to my Adder so I gave it a go. I got it a few days later as a Prime member so 5 stars on the shipping Amazon! The feel was close to my Adder. Not 100% which I never expected would be. It is slightly smaller in size but bigger than the Naga. What was important was the feel with the wrist. It feels great. Now that I got the feel lets get to the mouse dynamics: It has a ring finger rest. Not horrible just never have had one in the past. I feel I will get used to it. Dont get attached to the sound of 16400 DPI. If you can manage that kind of sensitivity you are beyond belief. That is just too much but thankfully it is highly adjustable. Mouse scroll feel good. Different than the adder but in a good way for me. Smoother without being too smooth. The mouse material is different for me as well. It is not distracting but I think if you get a sweaty palm or something else that causes your hand to want to slide it wont on this mouse. It is pretty subtle feel but you can sense it. The software that it comes with did not take long to figure out how to adjust. This is my first MMO mouse so it is a learning experience for me on side button configuration but I feel I got it on lock down now. The red button on the left of your left click button if your a first person shooter is an amazing burst fire. Instead of mash and hold and having a bad spray pattern this will have you in tight shape. The chord is that expensive mouse style of braided quality. If your into that then you will be happy. Every bit as good as my Adder. If your not well that is just how the more expensive ones seem to be now. Now the final part which is why I took the star off is the 12 button side buttons. If you were to sit the mouse on its side and looked at the angles of the buttons they form a contour in the shape of a w 1-6 no prob to get to but 7-12 take effort to be accurate. Luckily I dont think I will need to get that deep into them. I have them bound right now to the least needed abilities but it is clunky to do regardless. The buttons are not difficult to press but they are just your typical buttons. The Naga has mechanical these are not. To me that is no big issues. I only deducted the star for the difficulty of the back 6. I hated doing so but want to give an accurate depiction of the mouse. Finally the biggest thing that almost gave it back that 5th star is the price. Naga 65-70 and Logitech is up there as well for their MMO mouse you cannot beat the price tag of the Redragon. So in conclusion if you are debating whether to take a chance on it over the bigger names of Razer or Logitech to name a few then do so. It is a great mouse thus far after a week of use. If it changes I will readjust but thus far I am very satisfied.

I loved the packaging. It comes in a hard plastic case. Could use the case for all sorts of stuff (DICE BOX!). As for the mouse, its slightly smaller than what I was expecting. I have large hands, and I bought a mouse from a different company that is bigger and fits my hand perfectly, but obviously doesnt have the 12 extra buttons. I use that mouse for work (and was bringing it home for use on my gaming PC that this mouse has now taken over for). I do like that it lights up (red is a nice color, not too bright at night; there are more options, including software changes from the default colors). As for use, it does its job, but I wish it was programmed and built differently. I was expecting the extra buttons to count as Mouse Button X, much like other 5-8 button mice (including the one I use for work). Instead, you have to map the buttons and the system uses that. I dont like that i cant have it function differently with each program I use, which if the buttons were truly Mouse 4-15, would do like the other 5-8 button mice. Basically on those mice, you can set the side buttons as back and forward for browsers, and in other programs like Discord, could be used as Push to Talk. (Though I will say, having the Push to Talk on the same button as Back in a browser does make talking to friends in Discord and then looking up information tricky, but I dealt with it.) Here though, that doesnt happen. It took me a while to figure it out (no instructions really in the case). I got this for an online MMORPG, and after some digging, found that yeah theyre just mapped keys and not true keys (ala Mouse Key X). So had to map in the mouse software then map in my game for it work the way I need it. Now this isnt to say similar, more expensive versions of this mouse by other companies dont suffer the same issues; my research said its a similar situation with those mice. I would say this: its a great mouse, once you get used to using it. So far, Ive had fun with it, though just getting my muscle memory to kick in for it will take a bit. Definitely buy this mouse, if youre looking for an in-expensive yet awesome mouse for gaming (especially MMORPGs with lots of buttons to push).

I purchased a version of this mouse several years ago, it being the original M901 with 16400dpi. This one is the M901-2 with 12400dpi. After breaking the left click myself in some baggage, and some time with a superglue repair, I decided to just get a new one since I enjoyed the original so much. PROS: |For this price, its really difficult to find another mouse that suits someone looking for a mouse like this. |The two DPI buttons in the middle are amazing, enough options to suits any realistic need, and a simple up and down option. Each setting is even color coded so you can easily find out which setting youre on. |More than enough buttons for most peoples needs, with the extra 12 buttons on the side, and even a small multi click macro button by the left click. To my surprise, Im constantly finding a reason to use it on something. |The small weights are great, and easy to work with. I found that putting all the weights in seems to be the perfect weight for me. |Simply functions as a mouse is expected. Im not high echelon FPS player, so I dont really have the scope to judge how effected I am by the laser, but all in all Ive found it works fantastically for fast paced precision games. CONS: |This mouse kind of doesnt know what size it wants to be. Its a sizable mouse, which may be a problem for people with small hands, or simply like more compact mice. With its sized in tandem with the size of its side buttons, which are quite compact, you may run into some trouble if you have larger fingers. I have long skinny fingers, so the size of both are actually perfect for me. |With the one I received recently, Ive found that the middle mouse button tends to click unintentionally while scrolling on rare occasion, but it may be simply because Im use to the pressure needed for the previous iteration of the mouse, which was ever so slightly less snappy. I remember reading about the lights being customizable, as well as a few other things. Alas, I never had an interest in them, as the breathing red lighting that came with stock was fine for me. Id have given it 5 stars, since its really a massive bang for buck mouse, but I feel the size ratios could have been toyed with a little more, as I find its perfect for my hands, but for some I can imagine some slight issues. Would buy a third time in a few years if needed.

I tried out this mouse because it looked great and I wanted lots of programmable buttons. Unfortunately, it had some major flaws. I eventually went with the Logitech G600, and like it better for several reasons, which I will detail below.

Looked for a MMO mouse and this came up the highest. The mouse is a cheaper alternitive to the Razer Naga and is a pretty good one! Ive been using it now to play competitive World of warcraft and play FFXIV almost every day. While this mouse is great it has 2 major draw backs. Ill make a short list of the pros and cons. Pros. Price Texture (a bumpy kinda plastic, I actually love it) Software is actually good once you take a few seconds to figure it out braided USB line (what you come to expect is almost all USB products tailored towards gamers) Cons 1) Heat!!! - After about 1 hour gaming sessions the LED light in the palm starts to get noticeably warm. This doesnt bother me terribly but its extremely noticeable. I couldnt imagion if I was one of those people who get sweaty palms to be able to tolerate this at all. This was the big thing to prompt me to leave a review. I dont know if its just my mouse because I dont see other people having this problem but its there. 2) Side buttons - After coming from back to back nagas the side 1-12 buttons are extremely crisp and give you great feedback on when they are pressed... This mouse not so much. Much more on the mushy side my wife says. While they do their job just fine and I dont think ive had a issue when the press didnt translate to a cast... Its just one thing to mention. They seem to have a slightly more resistance then the naga so a bit more force is needed. Not a single button of the 12 gives a satisfying feel really. Worth entioning 1) People who have started that the 10-12 buttons are awkward to press probably havent used other gaming mice of this variant. They are no more awkward to press then any other MMO styled mouse. 2) If it seems I have a somewhat defective product (which is possible) If the company wants to send me a better product with these issues fixed Ill be glad to redo my review. Until then These really are the only downfalls to the mouse. I was going to give it 3 stars but If you dont have sweaty hands the heat issue isnt as bad of a problem.

Keep in mind, I rated this 2 stars based on the things I value in a mouse. The things I wanted: 1: A mouse that can track as well as a Razer Abyssus or even Death Adder while supplying me with the features of a MMO mouse with programmable buttons. 2: A mouse that glides easy. Conclusion based on the things I want: You get the features, but not tracking or smoothness. Im using a Steelseries QCK pad, which could be a problem, but I ultimately found that the Perdition has inconsistent tracking thats jittery and has lag spikes even at 500 DPI. I found a way around this by turning up the DPI to 8,200, then lowering the cursor speed in the software settings, which made the tracking about as smooth as something between my Razer Abyssus and a standard mouse, though it still seemed inconsistent and suffered from lag spikes wherein the cursor would seem to slightly jitter/drag every 30 seconds or so. I dont currently play any MMORPGs, but was considering trying RIFT because a friend said its fun. I do, however, play FPS games like CSS and TF2 and Minecraft 5-15 hours a week, along with the occasional RPG like Skyrim. Though I play mostly casually, Ive been really competitive in the past playing FPS games and MOBAs and when I do play them now I still strive to perform well. Sadly, this mouse isnt comparable to my Razer Abyssus or old Death Adder as far as tracking/precision goes. It has tracking only slightly better than a standard mouse youd buy at Wal-Mart for 15USD. If you only play MMOs or Minecraft and want features in a mouse than functions as well as a standard mouse, then this is a good buy, admitted. Pros: Though I never got used to the shape of the mouse, its really comfy and the texture of the material is very nice. It feels like a forgiving plastic sandpaper, which I loved. The buttons on the left side are a little smallish, but feel really solid and of quality. The red button on top I like, but its a little too high in my opinion. The scroll wheel feels really nice. Its super smooth, wide and has a nice rubber texture. The software is really nice. You can customize cursor speed, the DPI of every 5 quick select settings from 50-16,400, double-click speed, acceleration, logo/button brightness, color and pulse speed, as well as assign any button on the mouse to any key/button/command you like. You can make macros and assign them to any button you like, among other things. These are just some of the software features that work really well. Cons: When you see a mouse can go up to 16,400 DPI (16,400 Dots Per Inch Sensitivity) you assume that the tracking sensor is AMAZING, but youd be wrong. The tracking sensor of this mouse isnt much, if any better than what youd find in a standard mouse. Thats saying a lot, because if you go from a quality gaming mouse with a good sensor to a standard/low quality mouse its virtually un-usable. Unless you turn cursor speed down to like 5%. Example: With standard cursor speed settings @ 16,400DPI even the slightest possible movements my cursor would skip across 10-20% of my screen at a time, and even at low DPI settings its still jittery. It baffles me they would give you the option to exceed 1800 DPI with a sensor this sub-par. The software settings get messed up when you switch between setting profiles or restart. Mainly the thing that messes up is the cursor speed, which has to be re-adjusted every time you change profiles or restart. The only way I could get the mouse to feel smooth is to set the mouse at 10,000 DPI and turn the cursor speed down to about 5% speed, which I had to redo every couple hours, or every restart/profile switch. This gets very annoying. Fun stuff w/Macros. If you play ADC in LoL, or games that require simple button combos, then the macro is the thing for you. I used to main ADC in LoL at Plat level and setup a macro that could give you an overnight boost in your mechanics. Basically what I did is create a LoL profile and in this profile made the red button on top my normal Left-Click,, Then I assigned a custom macro, easily accomplished in the software to my mouse, which is basically A + Left Click with a 10MS delay. This basically made is so you attack-move-click instantly when you left click, removing the need for click accuracy and having to learn to A+Left Click efficiently. You only have to get used to using the red button for normal left clicking, at least while using the LoL profile. This can be done effectively with other combos in LoL and like games, like Alistar W-Q combo or Lee Sin ward jumping. Ultimately, if you want a mouse with average tracking, but good features thats big and comfy, its a good deal, but if you want the tracking of a real gaming mouse, look elsewhere. If you play FPS games competitively, then dont buy this mouse. I would rate this 3 stars if the software was perfect and the settings never had to be re-adjusted, 4 stars if it had the tracking sensor of the Razer Abyssus, but still had the software problems, or 5 stars if it had both.

As being a Razer Naga owner, I needed to purchase a new mouse due to the double clicking issue that it was having. The Nagas always seem to have the same trouble. I was looking at the new Naga, but I still was not sure if I should buy it. Then, I discovered this Redragon Perdition gaming mouse. I read some reviews and did some research on it, and bought it. Simply put, WOW! For starters, it fits my hand quite a bit better. I should probably add if you have smaller hands, the Naga would be a better option as the Redragon sits a little bit higher and a little bit wider. For me anyways, I have no hand fatigue whatsoever. Removable weights, genius! All you have to do is remove the bottom access panel underneath it and customize how much weight you want. It also came with a little weight storage case, so you wont lose them (unless you lose the case xD). Indented side-buttons, what does that mean? The first two rows are indented towards each other, and the last two rows are the same as well. So, you will know exactly where your thumb is on the grid. It felt a bit different at first compared to the Naga, but I was able to learn where the buttons are on the first day of usage. DPI setting buttons (up and down), is stationed right behind the scroll wheel. Each DPI setting changes the color of the scroll wheel so you have feedback on whether it did change or not. Software - for the most part, fairly straight-forward. Set DPI settings, program side buttons, change colors (a lot of colors with a breathing mode), create profiles, etc. I would recommend this to anyone over a Naga. One, it is a hell of a lot cheaper (was originally $100, bought mine for $46, now its $37); Two, it feels (so far) comfortable and durable; Three; it has all the goodies you need to do what you want with it. Excellent product! I am optimistic I will get more than two years out of it instead of the Naga. I have no bad feelings toward Razer as they do make some awesome products. Until they fix the Naga clicking issue, the Perdition will do just fine for years to come. ~UPDATE~ 11/22/2014 - 6 months later, works just like on day one.

I was looking for a high precision gaming mouse to use with my new PC I just built. I not only game, but I am also an avid multitasker, so I was looking for a mouse with programmable buttons to make my life easier. I have definitely found it in this mouse. The overall feel of the mouse is very sturdy and feels well built. The mouse comes with extra padded feet so if you ever wear them down, you can replace them. Aesthetically, the mouse is gorgeous. The default profiles light colors are nice, but you can even program custom colors, too. There are profile colors and DPI colors, so it might seem confusing. But, the scroll wheel color indicates DPI color while the button and dragon symbol colors indicate which profile it is on. As for the feel of the mouse, I would rate it 8.5/10. The left mouse button and most of the 12 buttons feel great. The right click button is a little too sensitive for my hands. Maybe it is because I have twitchy fingers, but I sometimes find myself accidentally clicking the right click right after I left click. Also, the middle column of buttons are a little harder to press than the left and right columns. By this I mean the 2, 5, 8, and 11 number buttons. The right and left columns have a nice audible and tactile response to them and are very easy to reach with your thumb. I do have trouble sometimes with the middle column: sometimes I press more than one at a time, other times it doesnt register the click. But, I think this may be due more to the positioning of the buttons rather than the build of the keys. The driver software is very self-explanatory and lets you customize almost everything about the mouse. The weights included also impress. I prefer a heavy mouse, so I left all the weights in, but it has 8 of them for you to customize the weight with. It also has a cool carrying case for the weights. Overall, this is an amazing mouse for just shy of $40. For such a new company to the gaming mouse business, Redragon makes a good first impression. Even my complaints are probably due to human issues rather than build issues. Definitely a high quality gaming mouse and the only choice for those who want quality and a good price.
