Introduction

Cougar has been around for about 10 years now, but their mouse department is still quite young. However, I already consider them to be among the best in this area. They keep improving their older mice while releasing entirely new products too, and they do it well, considering user feedback and community opinions. They have surprised me many times before with their relatively cheap, yet high quality peripherals. I have previously reviewed their two high-end mice, the Minos X5 and Revenger S. This time, I will present you the Surpassion, a cheaper option its specifications show to have the potential to easily be a top product.

Packaging

Cougar has an easily recognizable package design in which the left side of each box is entirely orange, while all others are mainly black and covered in the usual information, technical specifications, and render pictures. The front of the Surpassion box can't be opened, which, if you ask me, isn't off-putting at all. I prefer simplicity, which is well executed here. The contents of the package are the mouse itself, a brochure, user manual, and set of extra mouse feet, which a nice and thoughtful addition—I wish more companies would include a set!
