Cooler Master Sentinel Advance mouse review - Product Gallery

Product Gallery

Right then, packaging... can I hear an ooh, can I hear an aah? No joking, we always show the packaging so you can recognize the product in the stores. Clear packaging, all primary features are marked on the packaging, hard to miss really.

In the package you'll find: 1 x Gaming Mouse, Software/Driver CD and an anti theft bracket... First impression, it's a nice looking mouse alright, rather big though.

Weight is perfect for me at default, and the USB cable is not a standard rubber wire, yet made out of braided cloth. I kinda like that, many of you as I know actually dislike it.

A closer look. The mouse; an ergonomic design. This right-handed mouse features 8 buttons and lighting effects in seven colors, but particularly interesting is the OLED display where you can look up your preferred DPI for the X and Y axes. It packs a twin-laser sensor, a DPI of up to 5,600 and up to five programmable profiles. The mouse is overall single-textured, with a soft rubberish-plastic feel to it. Not at all uncomfortable, and it won't get slippery when wet or sweaty and the OLED screen doesn't get warm.

Another note on the USB cable... it's very long; something like 1.5, maybe two meters. Pretty nice. Here we have left/right buttons + rubber scroll wheel. The smaller button just above the scroll wheel is a profile switch and then the two buttons nearest to the OLED screen are the selectable DPI switches, with again more little LED lights above it. The LED color is representing the assigned DPI level (red LEDs in the photo above).
