While other mice have features that we like, such as free wheeling scrolls wheels and hybrid wireless and wired designs, the Steel Series Xai is quite simply the best pure gaming mouse we've ever tested. Rather than tack on gimmicks like flashing lights and weight systems, Steel Series has simply taken the basics of a performance mouse and honed them to perfection. Despite being ambidextrous it's incredibly comfortable, tracking is exceptional, and the level of customisation on offer puts other mice to shame. Considering you can buy one for just £50 we cannot recommend it highly enough.
Overall
10/10
