4.0 out of 5 stars Won't be needing a new mouse for awhile, March 12, 2010

I am a big fan of ambidextrous mouse, and Xai is a great replacement for the Logitech G3 that I've used for a long time.

Pluses:
- very smooth tracking and movement
- mouse settings mostly configurable thru the LCD and without driver
- 4 side buttons that are customizable, including macros (using driver software)
- customization is stored on-board, up to 5 profiles, so no need to have driver software on all your computers
- Can be comfortably used for both claw/palm grip
- Has rubber coating that feels very nice and comfortable to the touch
- Buttons are well built and nice clicks with good feedbacks yet not too firm
- Good quality teflon feet for gliding

Possible cons that I don't mind:
- some may say the middle wheel is too stiff to scroll
- some may get annoyed by the placement of side buttons, though I find them well placed and un-obtrusive.

Cons:
- Slightly buggy on firmware upgrade**... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars ATTENTION MAC USERS, October 31, 2010

I purchased this mouse for Mac OSX because I needed an ultra-precise and premium wired mouse.

I finally got this mouse to work with OSX by setting the "ExactRate" feature of the mouse to "125". Doing so gives the precision necessary when operating the mouse at slow speeds to avoid the jittering effect that most third-party mice have with OSX. Now I can say the mouse works totally fine with OSX. It took weeks of trying different mice and different mouse pads until I finally landed on this combination. If you can imagine my frustration as I tried to get third-party products to work with the new computer. In the end, it has to do with a very particular way that OSX communicates with mice. They support their settings and not much else.

As for the mouse, it is very premium in design and construction. It has a perfect size and shape that most mice do not have. However you should get the version of the mouse that doesn't have buttons along the sides, because these are... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Product of Experience and Innovation, December 14, 2010
This review is from: SteelSeries Xai High Performance Laser Gaming Mouse (Black) (Personal Computers)
The Xai Laser Mouse is clearly the product of years of expertise and feedback. The SteelSeries stance on getting it right before matching a market price point has never been more fulfilled than in this mouse.

The feel of it in your hand is exceptional, and the placement of the buttons is intuitive and functional, whether you're right or left handed.

All in all, it's the best mouse I've ever played with, and I can't imagine using another one now.

Other people have mentioned buggy software, but I don't know what they're talking about. I didn't have any problems with it, and it seemed fairly simple and effective to update and customize.
