Introduction

Ozone is known by many for their competitively priced gaming peripherals. Today, we will be looking at one of their newest products: the Xenon gaming mouse. This one uses, like many other reasonably priced gaming mice on the market , what is perhaps the best gaming sensor, the Avago ADNS-3090. The implementation on the Xenon is pretty basic, which bodes well for its performance.

The Xenon has an ambidextrous design, which means that both left and right-handed people can enjoy it. It does, however, lack a few very basic functions like back and forward buttons. The mouse retails for a bargain of $40; that is, if you can live without side buttons.

The Package

The Xenon ships in a neat, little box that allows you to feel for the general shape of the mouse. Once you break it out of its box, you immediately notice the lack of side buttons, which is quite unusual for a modern gaming mouse.


With the Xenon, you also get a driver CD and a setup guide.


The cable is totally simple and seems well made. The strain reliefs on both ends seem adequate.
