Best on Gemini (avg #9.0), weakest on ChatGPT (#10.0)
Owners love the premium build, performance, and customization options, but scroll wheel failures are a recurring concern that undermines the otherwise excellent experience.
The marketing claims around sensor specs, wireless speed, actuation, precision, lighting, and programmable buttons are unverified by the available owner review data, which focuses on overall experience rather than technical specifications. However, the critical durability claim of "zero double-clicking issues" is directly contradicted by widespread scroll wheel failures reported by owners, making this a material overstatement that undermines trust in the product's reliability promise.

“The mouse is fantastic in so many ways and would be deserving of a 5 star rating if it weren't for a known issue with the scroll wheel I only learned about after purchasing. On the 2nd day of using this mouse, the scroll wheel stopped working (it physically worked, but wouldn't send a signal to the computer). After some research, I found an easy fix which is: - Set switch on the back to bluetooth ”
