EVGA X12 Gaming Mouse, 8k, Wired, White, Customizable, Dual Sensor, 16,000 DPI, 5 Profiles, 8 Buttons, Ambidextrous Light Weight, RGB, 905-W1-12WH-KR

I've long been a fan of Logitech game mice because of their initial fit/finish and reliability. I momentarily went with corsair gaming mice and after 2 bad experiences, including one going completely DOA after a firmware update, went back to Logitech. I've never had a logitech mouse go DOA on me. However, over time. I find that the soft-touch and rubberized coatings on their mice eventually become sticky. Or even wearing off completely. Mind you every logitech mouse still works. It's just no longer pleasant to handle with the worn spots straight down to the plastic. Even after wiping them down and washing my hands. It feels like it's crusted over with many layers of red-hot cheetos dust.I've been a fan recently of EVGA's Z10 gaming keyboards with the Cherry brown switches. So i decided to give the X12 mouse (white) a try. The price was right at $19.99 on sale. The mouse itself is light and absent of any kind of soft touch or rubberized coating. Which likely means you won't run into the wear and tear issues associated with higher end mice with the "nice when new" coatings and surfaces. The plastic itself reminds of of the textured white plastic used on the legendary Microsoft laser Intellimouse revered by old school FPS gamers. The button clicks are crisp and precise. The tracking is spot on. The unleashed RBG software is easy to use and allows control over the RGB lighting over 3 separate zones with a handful of effects with various colors. If you don't care for gimmicky effects, you could always set it to static with any color of choice, or turn it off completely.So far so good. Time will tell how the X12 will wear. But given first impressions and the cheap price. I may consider picking up another X12 (white) to put into cold storage incase this mouse ends up being the GOAT. Naturally i'll update this review (good or bad) as I continue to use this mouse.Update: A year later the scroll wheel starting acting up and jumping when scrolling in a web browser on sites like Amazon and Facebook. Scrolling down very slowly will cause the page to scroll up instead. To rule out it wasn't anything else, I plugged my crusty old Logitech G402 mouse into the same USB port on the PC and kept the windows mouse settings the same and the annoyance completely vanished. Scrolling became predictable and precise again. Obviously an issue with the sensor tracking the movement of the scroll wheel. I'll take this mouse to my workshop to blast it with some compressed air, but at this point, it doesn't look good in regards to longevity for this mouse if that doesn't resolve the issue. Luckily I only paid $20 for it.

Be prepared for all this... Would probably be a good idea to get yourself a bag of popcorn or some other snack for this lengthy readthrough, haha.So basically, this mouse arrives without the buttons bound to what you desire, and is set to 1000hz polling rate by default. The problem is that if you happen to have the latest Windows 10 Updates (that started deploying in like March or April 2021), the EVGA Unleash RGB X17/20 software does not work....at all...no matter what... This is due to the software not detecting the mouse on newer versions of Windows, as the mouse's firmware needs to be updated...via the software that isn't working... But once the mouse's firmware is updated, the system will then detect the mouse and the app will magically start working- no joke.But due to those newer builds of Windows having updated versions of Microsoft .NET Framework, you cannot easily get the app's Firmware Updater (in the "Program Files (x86)\EVGA\Unleash RGB\FWUpdate" folder to work... And it also won't automatically happen in the Unleash RGB x17/20 RGB software since the software won't launch.... So essentially, you have to have access to a dang computer that's running an older version of Windows 10 (or any other, older versions of Windows as they may potentially still work; I imagine this is due to those older Win10 builds having older versions of Microsoft .NET Framework built-in). Luckily enough, I had a spare laptop that was running a version of Windows 10 from about a year ago. I installed EVGA Unleash RGB X17/20 and it actually opened fine, without any issues! Just after opening, it instantly detected the mouse this time and immediately asked me to update the mouse'sfirmware. I did, and then waited for it to finish... After it was done, I changed it to 8,000hz polling rate, hit "Apply" and then "Save," and then unplugged the mouse and plugged it back into my primary PC. I used it to reinstall the EVGA Unleash RGB X17/20 software (as I had uninstalled it prior), and it this time the software opened immediately as it detected the mouse with the newer firmware installed.So all in all, the setup for this mouse was super dang annoying... But once I got it working- my god. It's fantastically good! I previously had a Logitech G502 for like...ever lol; but then switched to a Viper 8K.... But I really started missing the G502's design and so I snagged this EVGA X17 as it's shaped similarly and isn't ambidextrous like the Viper 8K. And man, do I love this freaking mouse now! 8,000hz Polling Rate; 7 extra buttons that can be changed to any key or recorded macros; beautiful exterior coloring (in the grey model, which is what I choose); three sensors in the bottom (I imagine for increased tracking with more accuracy); lightweight (that can also be made heavier with the included weight set); and a non-ambidextrous shape that feels better and more tangible in my right hand with my odd mouse grip lol.Overall, this mouse is AMAZING. BUT, it's only amazing WHEN YOU GET IT WORKING. If you're thinking about upgrading to an 8,000hz polling rate mouse, definitely snag this one if you're not used to an ambidextrous mouse. But aside from that, Razer mice also run this crazy software/services in the background of your computer at all times that waste a bit too many resources if you don't know how to close them out/stop them. So if you're into computer performance whilst gaming, then this EVGA mouse would definitely take the cake!Okay, wow... Sorry for writing so much... I hope this helps someone out in the future!Take care everyone who got this far in the read lol *high five*

Buen producto, pero el software se desconfigura al apagar el equipo de un día para otro y hay que volver a configurar el perfil

I needed a gaming mouse for a trip, needed it fast, for 15 bucks it was well worth it and I ended up using it long after the trip was over, nice surprise.

When i foolishly bought this due to it being from EVGA i never expected such a low quality product in terms of performance. Scrolling with the mouse wheel is very annoying due to the fact the mouse cannot perform this task even remotely efficiently. When i scroll down i go up or down or stay at the same point originally. The same with scrolling up. Scrolling with the mouse wheel resulted in either a random direction or no scrolling taking place at all! In the end only using the keyboard would allow me to scroll.I cannot click and drag an item/folder because it will release said item/folder before i release the mouse button. Even worse the mouse will open up multiple instances of programs/documents or try to when i click to open them.Now some may think well maybe it's my setting but NO it is not because I installed old and new mice to try and trouble shoot these issues and none of them had these problems! This product is not worth the money for terrible aggravation it provides any user of it. Save your money and buy a cheaper 5 to 10 dollar gaming mouse it will work better.

Great budget mouse one of the best actually if it ever stops responding don't be alarmed just download the app for it from evga and that will fix it also if u want to control the RGB it's in the same app

Buen precio excelente equipo
