This mouse is nothing short of amazing and the only thing holding it back from getting the highest score available is the scroll wheel problems that it has. At €79.99 you are expecting a flawlessly performing mouse, but the Ikari cannot claim that because of the scroll wheel. All other aspects of its performance are just staggering right from the perfectly performing laser sensor to the lift-off distance that rivals the Razer Lachesis, but the SteelSeries mouse definitely has the edge because of the incredible ergonomic design and near perfect button placement.

The durability and comfort of this mouse is something you cannot help, but will notice it right from the start. It is well built and feels rock solid apart from the scroll wheel. That coupled with a few new features means that this mouse is ready to take on all of the competition.

The SteelSeries Ikari is definitely one of the best performers out there when it comes to tracking at all sensitivity levels. During the course of my testing the tracking was immaculate and did not fail me at any time.

Everything seems to fit well together with this mouse. This mouse is nothing short of incredible where the only less desirable aspect of it being the scroll wheel.
