Greater than one weekVery good so far, feels really good for gaming, you just need to install the driver so you can configure the dps because it comes with low dps from factory. I was a little worried since I bought it used, but it works just fine.

> 3 dayLasted about 2 years before the right click mouse button cracked open/broke/detached, which just happened a few minutes ago. Was a good mouse until then. Wont be buying another though.

13-04-2025As a previous owner of a SteelSeries Rival 100, I found this mouse to be a nice upgrade after the scroll wheel on it stopped working properly. The Rival 110 is almost identical to the Rival 100, except it has an improved sensor which allows for much greater DPI control and is ever so slightly heavier. The improved sensor allows you to change the DPI in steps of 100 (compared to the 500 of the Rival 100), which allows for much more precise sensitivity control. The slightly increased weight was really only noticeable when using the two mice side by side. The Rival 110 has the same simplistic design as the Rival 100 with a DPI switch button on the top and forward/back buttons on the left side which drastically increase productivity when navigating web pages, documents, or files. Overall this is a fantastic mouse that I would recommend to anybody - for gaming or normal day-to-day tasks. Although I have only had it for a month, im confident that it will be just as reliable as my previous SteelSeries mouse, which lasted about 2 years of heavy use.

> 3 dayI really liked this mouse for FPS shooters. I mostly play fortnite, rainbow, and CSGO. For majority of games 2 extra buttons is enough (FPS) but for games like fortnite it is helpful to have more than two side buttons. The lack of extra buttons made me have to give this mouse a 4 star rating. Overall the feel of the mouse if great and it fits all hand sizes and grips. I personally am a claw grip and it works great.

> 3 dayStrictly in terms of price, hands down the best mouse I have ever purchased. Its perfect for MOBAs, and for anyone looking at the entry-level gaming mouses. Very responsive, 7,200 CPI is more than enough in my opinion, and one of if not the best feature, is the RGB and the software behind it. With customization capabilities to no limit, its my number 1 mouse for the price.

> 3 dayComfy and light mouse with great sensor. Reliable for over a year now. There are two minor problems: No memory for macros or button bindings, so you would need to run steelseries engine to use them. This means the 6th button (dpi toggle) is useless unless you run that crapware 24/7. At least it remembers that you turned the LED off. Also, it will make random movements or button presses every few months, but it will be fine if you unplug and replug it. Even with these minor flaws I really like it.

> 3 dayI used a Rival 300 for around 3 years before buying this one, Its a upgrade on the sensor and you have more options in the Steelseries driver. The only complaint I can make is I have very large hands and I palm grip my mice so its not quite big enough for me, but the price and the quality over all make it a great buy.

> 3 dayUse this thing for CSGO. Feels great in hand much better than my ec2a. Everything works properly and the sensor is actually really good never skips or spins out. Scroll wheel is good as well and never randomly goes off like my ec2a did. Overall best mouse for the money.

> 3 daySafe shape, fits my 16.5cm hands really well. I use a palm/claw hybrid grip. Weight is a little on the heavy side for a mouse this size, it would be great if it were around 85g as opposed to 91g. It is nowhere near 87.5g as advertised. Switches feel alright, but my left clicks feel somewhat mushy. Not a big deal in game though. Side buttons are a little sharp but they are positioned well enough for you to click without issues. The scroll wheel feels stiffer than the 310 series of mice and are much harder to press in. Good or bad, its up to your preference. I prefer the clicks on the 310 mice. Built quality is pretty good for a budget mouse. Cable is soft and flexible but not as good as the cable on the 310 series. Coating feels like it will last and is grippy enough. Even the sides which are plastic offer really nice grip. Sensor performs flawlessly. From what I read online, the TruMove1 is based off the PWM3330 sensor but heavily modified by SteelSeries through their partnership with PixArt. Whatever it is, LOD seems high but it did not seem to affect me in game. Great sensor, SteelSeries and other mouse companies should look into more budget friendly sensors like the 3330 to put into their mice. It performs just as well as my Sensei 310 and Rival 310 with the TruMove3. You wont tell the difference. The RGB lights are only single zone so dont expect much out of them, but it is what it is. Overall I love this mouse. Its amazing how well a mouse of this caliber could perform. And it offers surprisingly great comfort for its low and simple design. I guess the subtle curves on the sides and back help a little. My only complaints would be the quality of the main switches (Left click in particular) and the weight which could be a little lighter. As someone who has used the Logitech G Pro/G102, Ninox Venator, SteelSeries Sensei 310, and Razer Lancehead TE. I think this is the best ambidextrous mouse Ive owned. The price to performance/shape ratio is astounding. If you didnt like then G102/G203, this is probably worth looking at.
