SteelSeries Sensei 310 Ambidextrous Gaming Mouse Review

Performance


Equipped with SteelSeries Engine 3, the Sensei is very easy to configure to your liking. Of course, you can use the same software to tune any modern SteelSeries peripheral, so no need for extra software if you’re using their keyboards or headsets, which saves system clutter. Of course, this is a tournament ready mouse, so you can save everything directly to the mouse’s onboard memory too.

Within the software, you can fully configure every button on the mouse, as well as tweak the polling rate, DPI level and angle snapping features of the sensor. If that’s not enough, you’ll also find a comprehensive macro engine that could give you the edge in your favorite game, or even just help keep some Photoshop editing actions a click away.

There are two RGB lighting zones to tinker with too. It’s not designed to dazzle your desktop environment. However, for colour coding your gaming profiles, it’s handy to check at a glance which one is selected.

The mouse will operate from as low as 100 DPI, with is slower than a snail, but insanely accurate; perfect for that long range sniper moment. However, it’ll go up to an extremely fast 12000 DPI, which isn’t much use for most gaming. Of course, if you’re tracking over a vast map on a 4K display, or need to have blazing fast turns in vehicles, it’ll be a welcome tool in your gaming arsenal. What’s amazing is how accurate the mouse is even at 12k DPI, and SteelSeries claim of a 1:1 sensor is well and truly confirmed from the moment you use it.

Gaming

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know that a mouse with a fantastic sensor like this is going to be great for gaming. The Sensei excels in any task, and from the guy at home playing Stardew Valley, to the world champion of whatever eSports you want, this mouse is going to get great results. It’s light, fast and nimble, making it a joy to use. Of course, those lovely OMRON switches mounted with their own sprung LMB and RMB panels are fast and responsive too. Overall, I simply cannot fault it.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
