SteelSeries Rival 3 - Gaming Mouse - 8,500 CPI TrueMove Core Optical Sensor - 6 Programmable Buttons - Split Trigger Buttons - Black

I recently picked up the SteelSeries Rival 3 gaming mouse, and it’s been a solid addition to my setup. The 8,500 CPI TrueMove Core optical sensor is super responsive, and I can definitely feel the difference in precision during fast-paced games. The split-trigger buttons are also a nice touch, making it feel more responsive and comfortable when I’m clicking rapidly.The mouse itself feels really light and comfortable in hand, even during longer gaming sessions. The shape is ergonomic, so it doesn’t strain my hand, which is a big plus. I also like that it has 6 programmable buttons, giving me plenty of options for customization without feeling too cluttered.The black design looks sleek, and it has a minimal yet modern vibe. It doesn’t have any unnecessary flashiness, just a clean look that works well with any setup.Overall, this is a great mouse for gamers who want solid performance without spending a ton. If you’re looking for a reliable, responsive mouse with customizable features, the Rival 3 is definitely worth checking out!

COD champion 2020-2021.I am one of the best, if not the best COD player in my family. While I have great dexterity, I cannot take all the credit.I went to FPS training school, and spent over 5 years perfecting my shooting skills. But the real and significant improvement came in late 2020. I switched from my sturdy and reliable Microsoft Bus mouse. And, adopted the legendary SteelSeries 62513 Rival 3. Even the name is fit for a champion!And, as the story goes, the rest is history. I’m now known as Super Sharp Shooter Stevie. Which is peculiar, because my name’s not even Stevie, but I am a super sharp shooter. I hate to brag, but last night, number 1, twice. Being at the top of the leaderboard, game after game gets boring, but the Rival 3 mouse has kept me entertained.The mouse is super lightweight. This means I can frag players on a dime. The CPI, IPS, DPI and acceleration are all breathtaking. I know it’s not the best mouse on the market, but for a budget mouse, it is truly exceptional. Not to mention the inbuilt light show.The size of the mouse is perfect for my small hands. It fits like a glove, you know, the ones with fur inside? It feels so comfortable! The matt finish helps my hand stick to the surface, without getting too hot.Both the left and right mouse buttons have a satisfying click. This CLICKS with impact at the same time you eliminate the opposition.Downsides? The side buttons are a little too small and the raised edges for the buttons, while subtle, are too subtle. I hardly use them because of this design.The scroll wheel, clickety click of buttons, and the macro configuration are also exceptional for everyday use.I hope SteelSeries rectifies the minor issues in a future iteration. The SteelSeries 62513 Rival 3 is so close to being the perfect budget mouse. I cannot recommend this mouse enough. It’s fantastic!

The product is very good for its price and I would reccomend it very much. The quality of the mouse itself is very good and durable. It isnt that heavy so its good for fps games. The size is a about an average mouse or an office mouse i could say and it fit nicely in your hand. The buttons have a nice click to them and feel like the will last a while. It doesnt have battery.

I have always raved about the Steelseries Sensei shape and the Zowie S2 shape along with their performances. So I thought for the entry price I would try the Rival 3.First off the shape is fantastic! I usually main the Zowie S2 and the Rival 3 is EXTREMELY close but with a few advantages, first the sides curve under more allowing for a better pick up grip (which is important on this mouse), and there is a rougher texture than the S2 and finally the weight is less than that of the S2. So using this was very easy coming from the S2.Not everything is all rainbows and unicorns though. The reason it's super important that this mouse is easy to pick up is due to the high lift of distance (LOD) of the sensor, compared to all my other mice (apart from the Viper mini, which is the same as this) this has the highest LOD of them all. I didn't find it hampered my gaming performance. However, I couldn't use it whilst using my PC for work. Also the side buttons, whilst being in a great place are very bad. The front side button especially has an incredible amount of pre travel to the point where the button is flush with the side when it activates, this can make it quite tricky to hit it in the heat of battle.The software is the usual great and solid performer I expect from Steelseries and this hasn't changed over the years of using it, but with that said, you don't have to use it after you have set the mouse up, if you don't want.Overall it's a great mouse for the cost, if you can overlook some of the quirks and pitfalls (but it's £35!) then I would buy it!

The SteelSeries Rival 3 is a great mouse that is not only affordable but comfortable and ergonomic. It has a stylish RGB light around the base and a RGB logo in the top that is subtle but aesthetically pleasing at the same time.You get two programmable buttons on the left hand side that default to back/forward but can be reprogrammed using the SteelSeries software which is also very well laid out and easy to use.Overall this is a great mouse for the price and I would highly recommend it.
