HyperX Pulsefire Surge

Vanir · Nov 16, 2018

HyperX joined the mouse game not too long ago, so they are still pretty much newcomers to this market. However, their second product of this kind already offers a PMW3389 top optical sensor, main buttons rated for 50 million clicks, 360° RGB lighting, and many more amazing features.

So many potentially great mice lately fall because of crappy side-buttons. Whats up with that? :shadedshu:

Thanks for the review, Vanir

As for me, the Logitech G403 and the G PRO Wireless are great examples, same goes for the Razer DeathAdder for instance.

I'm a fan of the GPro Wireless . The side angle of the Pulsfire isn't the greatest. Surge isn't that bad. I own and agree all the mice listed in your quote have good side buttons. Better than Zowie, that's for sure.
