So you read my mechanical keyboard round-up last spring, and I finally got you to throw out that rubber-domed piece of garbage you were using, right? Great! But then you plugged in that cheap three-button rodent that came with your computer, didn't you? Y...

The SteelSeries Rival is about as bare-bones as a gaming mouse can be. Only six buttons and a scroll wheel? Madness!And yet I found myself returning to the Rival as my daily driver while I had my pick of several high-priced, feature-packed alternatives. T...

To date the only mouse that has sat on my primary desk for longer than 1 full year has been the SENSEI MLG again by SteelSeries so when they announced the RIVAL roughly 6 months ago i couldn't wait to see if this was the mouse to replace it. The answer is...

The SteelSeries Rival optical gaming mouse ($59.99) is a perfectly good product, but it should have been better. Despite an ingenious design and a smart array of features, something about both the mouse and the software that accompanies it feels halfheart...

The Steelseries Rival mouse is pretty aggressively priced to compete with other gaming mice, the Rival is available for around 50 Euros what is a decent price for a mouse. I do recommend getting a mouse pad if you work on a surface what is not really flat...

It doesn't happen too often when a new optical gaming mouse receives hype. In-fact this past year up until now, all the mice we reviewed all used lasers and laser sensors. SteelSeries sent us their Rival gaming mouse which does feature an optical sensor a...
Our experience with the SteelSeries Rival mouse was very positive, but there are some minor concerns. Our first criticism is that the mouse nameplate is an unneeded gimmick. This usefulness of this feature is overstated for a multitude of reasons, most of...

When it comes to mice, SteelSeries over the past few years has basically stuck with a single design that they have used on multiple mice. We first saw it with the Xai and later the Sensei but they have also used it on various branded mice and a smaller ve...
When you put it all together, the Rival is a great mouse. SteelSeries did a nice job of creating a mouse design that takes in some of what has made the Siberia great while departing enough to make a unique design that will go well next to the Siberia in...

I'm not usually a fan of glossy mice. In addition to tracking fingerprints faster than a doorknob, they do a poor job of dissipating palm sweat, making them uncomfortably slippy. This has several downsides, most pressing of which is losing control of your...

SteelSeries moved away from the Sensei (Kana, Kinzu) ambidextrous design with its new gaming mouse, dubbed Rival. In fact, the mouse is unique in SS' rodent line-up. Since one reached my inbox a while ago, I should see what it's made of.I have to admit, I...

Rival is an apt name for this mouse. It is a simple, yet interesting rodent, with one of those "perfect sensors," and a build that's unmatched for its price. I have one small gripe with it and that's the scroll wheel getting stuck when scrolling back. It...

I've been using SteelSeries mice for as long as they've been around. And if the SteelSeries Rival is any indication of how far they come and how far they're going to go, I'm going to keep using them as long as technology will allow.At first glance, the St...

If you are determined to reach the peak of your potential performance the importance of an accurate sensor cannot be overstated. There is little use in you developing insane muscle memory if your sensor is neither consistent in its response nor tracking y...
Although the Sensei 310 and Rival 310 have slight differences - number of buttons and shape - in a lot of ways they are the same.They both have the same materials for the main body of the mouse, a nicely textured matte plastic, whilst the sides of both ha...
