Ozone Xenon Gaming Mouse Review
Tim Mammatt / 12 years ago
Straight out of the box we were quick to admire the form of the Xenon with its sleek futuristic look and it’s gloss white coating, with subtle black details. The Xenon is an ambidextrous mouse, meaning you can use it left or right-handed.
The size of the Xenon would suit most mid-sized hands and even some smaller ones. Being designed for use in either hand the mouse has a symmetrical shape. Ozone haven’t entirely skimped on the design as they have included a nicely braided cable with a gold-plated connector at the end, ensuring maximum signal quality.
Unlike the majority of other gaming mice, the Xenon has no side buttons and instead has rubber grip. Normally we’d expect to see at least a forward/back button here, but most likely due to the ambidextrous nature and costing, these have not been included.
The whole style of the mouse is very simple with clean angles and ridges.
The Xenon does have a slight ergonomic shape to it, but since it is designed for use in either hand, this has been kept to a minimum. You can also see the distinct lack of buttons – the Xenon has left and right mouse buttons, scroll wheel, which also acts as a middle button and one small white button just behind the wheel that controls the DPI.
The belly of the Xenon has 30% of it’s total surface area covered in Teflon glide pads to aid manoeuvrability. This is of course, where you find the sensor also and in this case, we have the 3500 DPI Avago optical sensor.
The Xenon also has different LED colours for each DPI setting. Typically this is blue for the standard DPI with the other colours being red, green and white that will pulse when connected.
