Review: Average - Check, the look is funky and you'll think the mouse will be wireless even without the mouse pad, bot the case, take the mouse pad away, and you need to plug the mouse in, and for traveling the mouse pad is and absolute waste of space...the mouse itself is great looking..
Review: I love this mouse and pad though; it's soooooooo cool. Terrible for gaming; sometimes you get the mouse cursor randomly jumping all over the place... but since I "retired", I don't care about winning or need to win as badly as I used to, so it's way more fun and enjoyable for me to use this mouse than any other mouse (Razer Deathadders, Overwatch edition etc, Microsoft, Razer Tron special edition mouse) Oh, adjusting the mouse sensitivity is annoying too on the fly; you can't go back in sensitivity, only cycle forward 3-4 settings per button press... But it's SOOOOO AWESOME

*by R***G on 16 November 2020*

Arrived quicker than expected, installed after just plugging into my Battlestation about a month ago. Much lighter on the wrist movement, noticed no glitching or performance disconnections, post one week break in period unit started randomly disconnecting. Migrated from a wired Mad Catz RAT 5 to this RAT Air wireless setup, I would highly recommend even with wired its great with the most expensive pad you've ever bought
