Marvo Peripherals Review – Gaming Doesn’t Have to be Expensive

Marvo, not a name I expect many of you to have ever heard of really. Well, unless you read our review of the rather fantastic Marvo CM375 4-in-1 Gaming Starter Kit a few weeks ago. That set had a headset, mouse, keyboard and mouse mat in one box for around £20 and it was pretty decent too. However, what about their individual products, how do they stack up?

Well, today, I have the Marvo Scorpion M112 Gaming Mouse, KG901 Mechanical Keyboard and the K616A Membrane Keyboard. They’re all pretty affordable products, so I’m not expecting perfection here. However, value for money is important and budgets can often be a little trim. So, let’s dive in and see just what you can get on a very modest budget!

Marvo Scorpion M112 Gaming Mouse

• Marvo 8812 Optical Sensor
• 4000 DPI
• 7 Colour LED Lighting
• £19.99 MSRP (Currently £9.53)

“Our M112 gaming mouse is not long to ask: it shines with its sharp, linear design and a precise, optical sensor that delivers up to 4000 DPI. It can also be easily configured via the Scorpion software. A novelty in this class. The programmable 7 buttons on the M112 are perfectly arranged and can be reached in no time. Its customizable 7-colour lighting provides a stunning atmosphere, especially during night-time gaming sessions. Thanks to its special ergonomics, the M112 allows even left-handed users to have even more control in the movement.” – Marvo
