Mionix NAOS 5000 Laser Gaming Mouse

I replaced my Razer Mamba with the Naos and will never go back. Not only is it more comfortable, and reliable, but it also has more features. This is very nice, and well designed high-end gaming mouse, and better than anything else I have tried in the $70+ price range.The Good: Extremely comfortable, I have never used a more comfortable mouse short of an ergonomic trackball. Very customizable you can adjust almost anything on this mouse to fit your exact needs- optional independent x/y axis, lift distance, 5 profiles to set, 24 different led colors built in. Weight system, and high quality feel.The Bad: Software could use some work. It is difficult to 'lift' the mouse because of it's design, this is a problem when playing some FPS, you are sacrificing better lifting for comfort. The current firmware has an issue on boot up, the computer will not detect the mouse unless you click some buttons on it before you enter Windows. Unpluging it also fixes this form within Windows. No wireless mode.Overall: Best high-end mouse I've used. Unparalled comfort, and extreme customization. Some technical issues that can be dealt with, and poor lift ability keep this mouse from being perfect. Better than the Mamba.

I am not a gamer. I am a medical coder working from home on a company laptop. I did not even know about gaming mice until I looked on Amazon to find a better mouse. The cheap mouse was lagging and wandering to the point of slowing me down doing charts. I can code faster than the old mouse could move. I have a 2nd monitor attached to the laptop to display the chart. I input codes into the laptop screen. I constantly move between them, scrolling and entering codes. I just wanted a better mouse for my job. I LOVE THIS MIONIX GAMING MOUSE. It is absolutely precise and blazing fast. I am now burning through medical charts with a mouse that can keep up with me. MORE THAN WORTH THE MONEY TO ME FOR MY NEEDS!! I AM THRILLED AS I CAN BE WITH MY VERY FIRST GAMING MOUSE!!! I love the tough braided cord. I work using it constantly for 8-12 hours a day. Arrived promptly in perfect condition. I plugged it in right from the box and was blown away buy the performance!! I also got a SteelSeries gaming mouse pad and these two are PERFECT TOGETHER.

I have finally found my perfect mouse. I have medium to large hands (size 8 surgical gloves), and a wider palm. This thing feels like it was molded specifically for me. Long gaming sessions and ZERO discomfort. I love the rubbery texture. Feels near identical to the Razor material...which is a good thing to me. I like it better than the hard plastic Logitech uses.The sensor is amazing. I was kinda bummed about not getting the 8400, but I already have to bump back the sensitivity with the 5000dpi sensor, so I am glad I saved the money for this model.I don't use any macros or anything fancy on any mice, so nothing to review there. I am a weirdo in that I use the thumb button to crouch (counterstrike), and the placement is perfect to not throw off my aim (some mice it is harder to aim while depressing the thumb button due to location).I have only had it about a month, but I will only be buying Mionix mice with this shape from here forward. Nothing is even remotely this comfortable.BUY IT.

I have been using Logitech mice for over 10 years... after the last 2 mice had the same repetitive problems with the clicking functionality I decided it was time to go a different route. I was a dedicated Logitech MX300 user, then a 310 user and then tried their gaming grade mice. But it seems like no matter how much money I dropped on these 'gaming quality' mice, their plastic parts just wore out from not even all that excessive use. Since I've owned this Mionix mouse, I've got to say I'm quite pleased with the feel of the mouse, and I love the buttons and their feel when you press them. I don't utilize the switching of sensitivity at all, nor have I on any mouse, infact I think its a waste of an option, because there's not many people that want to change their sensitivity when it comes to being competitive. Once your sense changes your knowledge of that sensitivity is put in jeopardy, and you don't have the same control anymore. But that aside, I've owned this mouse for almost 2 months now and its done a nice job of looking sleek, and being very sharp to the touch. Its a very sensitive mouse, adjust it for the way you like, chances are it'll be more sensitive than you're used to. But I think overall you can expect it to last a while and bring back some competitiveness to your game, whichever game that might be.

Mouse operates fine and tracks awesomely, weight adjustment lets you get the feel just right, and it feels great in the hand, but the software stopped working for some unknown reason and the company wrote me and said they were aware of the problem, that is was extremely common and that they are working on fixing it. It has been several weeks since then and I still can not use any of the software for this mouse.I can not recommend buying this product because it does not work as advertised and is more of a headache than it is worth.Instead I recommend: http://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-eSports-Element-Buttons-Gaming/dp/B004PINIVG Works great and is basically the same thing with a smaller price tag and it just works right, also it has more color options if that is a big deal to you.

I've owned this mouse for about a month, and it has been nothing but excellent in that time. It is very comfy for my grip (two finger grip) and doesn't fatigue my hand during longer sessions like my old mouse did. Buttons are all very smooth to actuate and responsive. Got it used in "Very Good" condition, and there is virtually no sign of wear and tear. The software is nice and lightweight (at least compared to setpoint), and intuitive enough that I had no trouble making macros right off the bat. The cord is also much lighter and gives less resistance than any corded mouse I've had before. Works great on my wooden desk surface. I've disabled all of the lights except the dpi indicator, which is an appreciated feature.Summary:ComfyClean and compact software

Great mouse as far as ergonomics go. Most mice are a little too small for me to palm them completely, the naos on the other hands is perfect for my hands and the textured coating not unlike that of razer mice has a great feel. The driver software is easy to use and the adjustable options are plenty. I gave the mouse 4 stars as it has some tracking problems on cheap cloth mouse pads at high dpis, it registers movement incoherently on such surfaces when the mouse is half an inch above the mouse pad which is a problem is you want to move the mouse back to a certain position without moving the cursor. This doesn't happen on other types of surfaces.

Awesome mouse I would recommend to any1 ! uoy y oy oyo yo yo yo oyo yo yoyo yoy yt
