Tecware Torque+ RGB Gaming Mouse Review
Peter Donnell / 5 years ago
How Much Does it Cost?
Either I misheard or forgot, but when I first got this sample, I was under the impression it was affordable, and priced around about £40. I suspect that’s my own fault. So, imagine my surprise when I find out it’s only £24.99 on Amazon. That’s ridiculously cheap, you can’t get a mouse this good for that amount of money! Well… I guess you can. It should pair up great with their £54.99 mechanical keyboard we saw last week!
Overview
There’s no shortage of high-performance gaming mice right now, and you’re not short of affordable ones either. However, that sweet spot of affordable and competitive performance and quality is harder to strike. I think the last one to impress me with great performance and a low price was the Viper V551 about a year ago. However, I think the Tecware looks better and it’s still another £10 cheaper.
Build Quality
There’s certainly nothing to complain about here. The material choices are spot on, and it looks just as good as a mouse that costs three times as much. While they do offer a black version for the same price, the ultra-glossy white one is the one I would go for personally. They’ve used a good sensor, the switches feel great, and the RGB tech is decent too. Plus, the paracord sleeving on the cable looks fantastic, a nice change from braided cables.
Performance
It may be affordable, but the Tecware Torque+ RGB really is a great performing mouse. It features a reliable PWM 3327 optical sensor from PixArt, as well as great feeling mechanical switches from Huano. It’s not quite to eSports standards, but it’ll track up to 30G and 220 IPS, which is more than enough for me!
Should I Buy One?
It’s a really nice looking gaming mouse, with good hardware, good performance and a really remarkable price. I can’t really fault it at all, and it may be the best affordable mouse you’ll find on the market today.
