Strengths:
Customizable Comfortable High DPI Can use for hours Reasonably sized
Weaknesses:
Sometimes the cursor goes PERFECTLY horizontal or PERFECTLY vertical, which can be fixed by lifting the mouse, and tapping it against the surface it was on. Uncomfortable after 10 hours of use (I tried it)
Summary:
Overall, it is a good mouse, and if you know how to ignore the bugs, it is perfect. I am pleased with it :D

Great mouse

Strengths:
Cuztomization is great; weight is awesome, nice to have something not feel like hollow plastic.
Weaknesses:
Couldn't find the proper placement for my pinky with any of the pieces, may be because I hold mice differently than most.
Summary:
Great mouse, solid feel. Been gaming with it for 5 months with no issues yet.

Good mouse

Strengths:
Tons of adjustments to fit any hand
Good software
All the buttons you need, none of the buttons you dont need
Great precision
Good build quality
Pinky finger holder to eliminate finger drag
Weaknesses:
A little pricey
A little heavy, even with no extra weights in it
Summary:
I LOVE the optional pinky finger holder. I have big hands and found that my pinky would sometimes drag on the desk with my old mouse.

I don't like the weight, it makes it hard lift and reposition the mouse. I prefer a very light mouse, this one has a lot of metal in it making it heavy.

I was a little worried about quality issues other people have posted, so for $11 I bought the extended warranty.

Overall, a very good mouse. Would I buy it again? probably not (due to weight).

Looks good but..

Strengths:
-Highly Customizable
-Looks Great
-High Quality Feel
-High DPI
Weaknesses:
-Terrible Tracking
-Unreliable
Summary:
Had this mouse for a while now and first off it worked great and was my favourite mouse I ever owned. After a few weeks the tracking/mouse movements started to give out and the mouse would only move on a vertical plane. Now after about 3 months of use, the mouse has become unusable.

Strengths:
Nice build quality, the adjustable size of it is nice, buttons feel very solid and the response on them is good. Good number of buttons for those who play MMOs. Programmability is a nice option for many.
Weaknesses:
The sensor is not very good. It is known to have issues on the z-axis. They have been documented on youtube and elsewhere. It's not a good mouse if you have low sensitivity in particular. The laser is much more susceptible to dust and debris than an equivalent optical. Phillips Twin Eye. This mouse is also very heavy. It seemed interesting at first, but you find you get more strain on your arm/wrist with long use. Lighter is better.
Summary:
Could have been decent but there are fundamental flaws that I think are hard to avoid. Probably a solid mouse for the bigger folks in the world with giant hands as I imagine the weight would be less bothersome. I'm fairly strong but i still noticed extra strain. I prefer lighter mice as to avoid RSI. The sensor isn't any good and laser mice in general are very susceptible to dust and debris. No one needs 5600 DPI. You'd need to run a resolution 2500+x1600+ to justify a mouse over 2000

Strengths:
Customizability, this mouse should fit every hand out there. Its got plenty of grips to change between for different feels.
Weaknesses:
The buttons click to easily if your shooting and your middle finger accidentily hits the right click button and you start putting on the silencer you die!!!!!!!
Summary:
Awesome mouse the other people are just on here to complain. Get it on sale. BUY IT.

Horrible, horrible mouse!

Strengths:
Only strength is how customizable it is.
Weaknesses:
Very glitchy. On a regular basis while playing a game, my mouse will lock up, or go crazy and just do its own thing for a second. Although the mouse is 5600 dpi, it acts more like an old school tracker ball mouse. The right and left button feel entirely different when clicking them. On top of it all, i find the components occasionally come loose no matter how much you tighten them.
Summary:
Ultimately, I’ve been terribly disappointed with this product. It started off fine, with the exception of the right and left button which have always been weird, and quickly started to show that it's a mad catz (I've personally always found their products to be cheap) product. I would sooner recommend someone a $20 Microsoft starter mouse for gaming that this thing.

Cyborg ok, for small hands

Strengths:
-the lasers seem to have good response. the different palm rests can give you a better palm fit. thumb rest will rotate outwards on the lateral plane to give a better reach and make mouse feel bigger. has removable weights.
Weaknesses:
-the software. I tried this for 3 days on different games: Black ops, Bad Co. &, Cod 4 and it was always the same. There was a lag spike on the x axis intermittently. It wasn't there when you DID NOT install the software, but that defeats the use of the mouse with customizable DPI settings. The other issue I had was the fit. I dont have large hands, and I found when I set it to its smallest setting,I was always hitting the thumb buttons. cant imagine anyone with large hands using it.
Summary:
-I bought it mainly to use for FPS games so I would never use it about 800 DPI, but the low 200 setting is nice to snipe with. Without the Software, it seemed to work well, If you can get used to the default DPI settings. If you have larger hands I would say you would be hitting the thumb buttons constantly, I found no other way to avoid it other than not putting thumb there...not usable then.
-In the end I returned it for a G500. Now my Frag rate is back! 8o)

very comfortable, good performing mouse

Strengths:
Great mouse for big hands.
fairly accurate
the full time 1/2 dpi button is good for some moments where sniping needs extra accuracy
good mouse if you move with your fingers instead of wrist like I do
being able to change weight is very nice but I use it with all the weights installed.
Weaknesses:
Price
wish it's acceleration wasn't so extreme. tough to get perfect accuracy with fine adjustments
I have a feeling it's going to break down in 2 years like my Saitek n52 gaming pad did. I recognize similarities in build quality.
the thumb buttons are slightly awkward
the sideways roller is very awkward and is never used during twitch gaming
Summary:
I'm keeping it because it feels very comfortable in my big hands. I mouse by moving my fingers and not my wrist and this is good for that (back-end can be cranked close into the mouse body, allowing more movement without requiring the wrist to move)
