I am in love. That is my first reaction upon using this mouse. Steelseries has truly outdone itself this time with the Sensei, the newest in professional gaming mice. But this is no ordinary mouse, this is truly a masterpiece befitting of its title. An amazing array of features masked by a sleek, sexy, professional finish, the Sensei is a powerhouse in the hands of either a pro or a noob.

A NICE BONUS
As awesome as this mouse already is, Steelseries went above and beyond to tell us that this mouse is truly custom tailored to every single gamer individually. They have included an option in the engine to create and upload a custom emblem to the LED screen on the bottom of the mouse. This also prevents confusion at lan parties or other events when somebody tries to jack your favorite mouse.

Hey Adam,
Love the review, glad that you have such good things to say about the Sensei mouse.
I actually had a role in the development of the SteelSeries Engine, and couldn’t help but notice that you’re having some trouble. Please hit me up and I’ll try to walk you through whatever troubles you’re having (it’s one of the fields I filled in, if you don’t get access to that kind of info, lemme know).
Again, thanks for the stellar review, I’m glad you love the Sensei
