SteelSeries Rival 5 Review, ANY GOOD?

here he is the same guy who helped me choose my gaming headset

You know what I mean?

This mouse its good but it can be WAAAAY better if they change that cable, awful cable from stock.

Заебись! )
Подпишусь пожалуй, есть свое мнение, а это - плюс! )

just got this for £25 second hand. Should be a solid upgrade, I was using a G402 before,
g402: 144g, no RGB, 3 thumb buttons
Rival 5: 87g, RGB, 5 thumb buttons

I swear every time I wanna buy something new you always have a good review posted!, and always pick you first, keep up the good work!

No one loves big mice cus they chew ur wires in ur attic. Only bigger mouce i prefer is gpw. Dont like really small other than viper mini. Def like light but prefer no holes if possible. The 600 was my main for awhile back in the day.

Those switches are really noice on the aerox 3. Nothing wrong with slightly bigger but weight is def important atleast around 60. Not a fan of holes either tho.

you know what i mean?

I love this dude's vibe!

i mostly play RPG games or single player shooter's like far cry and the sort so i prefer heaveier mice. Im using a G502Hero right now with all the weights in it ( i think 140 grams total) and just ordered the rival 500 , mostly becouse im using a MSI laptop witch has a steelseries keyboard and i can control both trough the same software. I cant say much about it yet , waiting for it to arive but it looks realy good. I hope it provedes the at least the same experience as my G502.

I know what you meant.

You sold me on this. I'm really interested in the extra side buttons to use as a aim tilt in games like DayZ and tarkov. Gonna head out and pick it up today.

So many mention weight of the mouse. How well does any table mouse work when you use it in free air? lol
You don't need to lift a mouse to move it around a mousepad.

I love you, lol I hate those tiny mice.

Why do they not make side buttons larger like the rival 310 or 710? Is it rocket science? Also, what's wrong with making the front thumb button nearer in reach? Are these mice manufacturers novice and incompetent, or simply dim witted? What is so damn difficult about listening to and applying customer feedback? No one cares about rgb lights and other overpriced gimmicks, just make practical mice that last longer than 2 months.

Your presentation style is awesome; you sound like that fun cool neighbor to have barbeque with by the poolside.

You know what I mean?

I LOVE the Rival Mouse and this style in general, but I wish they would put a few extra buttons on top of the mouse!! As a healer in World of Warcraft that would make all of the difference. I am never going to click with my Thumb -- it ain't happening lol :) My Thumb is for clicking to run only...

Seems as tho that odd tild button could be used quite well as a melee flicking up

I find it funny how you talk like you dont wanna hurt its feelings, loved the video really helpfull thx

Too many buttons? Can't say that's a thought I have never had. WoW player here, over 50, need a big mouse to fit my man hands. I prefer around 9 usable buttons not counting the scroll wheel, which honestly shouldn't be a button but whatever. The thing I find frustrating is the trend towards less buttons. I have two Rival 500's with the front index finger button broken. I have tried 5 other products and the Logitech 502 is the only one that came close. But in the end, the broken button 500 is still better.

Does your ring finger ever get pinched when right clicking this mouse? Just wondering because the right mouse button comes down pretty far, does that feel awkward having to keep your ring finger below it? Thanks.

I prefer a stiff cable. Because they don't get UNDER your mouse when you reset your arm/mouse after a quick 180 headshot. Which has happened to me quite a few times with a non stiff cable.
(And no, I will not go wireless because I always forget to charge them)

ANYBODY GOT A STINK COUNT?

Yea… I know what you mean…

Mfs need to hit the gym so they stop needing those lightweight mice. That shit is TOO light. I feel like it just flies off my hand

I wanna ask i bought white shark mouse does it have software to change color ?

Any double click issues with it? I am tired of paying gazilions dollars for a mice that double clicks on single push...

i only looked it up because it said it was the best on the market rn

That is a stinker about the RGB. That's how I use all my RGB product. Use the software to set the RGB, then disable/uninstall and never look at again. Really can't get this mouse on that alone. I don't want software for a mouse.

Cable quality?

Gracias!👍

This mouse is bad, the scroll wheel breaks quickly, i not recommend buy this mouse.

The no onboard memory was actually a deal breaker for me, thank you for your thorough review! lol. I hate having unnecessary software startup with my PC and shave it down to as little as possible.

you know what i mean?

i need to choose steelseries comfort grip and accurate pointer and confident which one is best?

Lol I've been playing with my Logitech MX518 for 15 years. I can say this is a heavy mouse lol, but I've big hand so never been an issue

very nice clear review thanks a lot!! mouse seems awesome I might get it :)

So far I was not impressed.
Either I have the worst luck possible, or the scroll wheels of these are faulty.

Got one - scroll started bouncing the other way after just ONE month. You know, you scroll up, but you get occasional jitter up.
Fortunately it was on warranty.
So... the second one started developing the same exact issue... less than two months in.

I swear I have never seen a mouse this faulty.

Bought one yesterday, gonna return it. Have a weird twist in the cable giving a slight force which is annoying. the plastic is super cheap, right clicking makes a 2nd sound which bothers me loads. And the software has to run 24/7 or its a discoball. I dont like to have 200-250 Megabyte loaded in my RAM all the time just for the RGB to be turned off, its stupid.

Ive always preferred bigger & heavier mouse

I like your video man but please stop saying... You know whata mean?

Another great review. I was going to buy this, but it's not wireless! I'll look for another wireless SteelSeries review from you.

anyone have the lag cursor in game happen recently to your mouse such as League of LEgends problem occasionally ?

My Rival 310 just died and I needed this fom my next choice. Keep up the good work.

great review but for the love of the angels, stop saying "you know what I mean", it so doesn't suit you and you are overdoing it, you know what I mean?

Thank you man, whenever I need a real and honest review about a product, you magically show up on my YT search.

I am thinking about buying a mouse this Black Friday, it's either going to be Steel Series Rival 5 or A4 Tech Bloody W95 Max.

I actually have it. I love it. Wired of course. Eighty-Nine grams is excellent for my hands. I’ve had the Logitech g403 Hero and the Razer Viper 8K, the Rival 5 is just better in my opinion.
