k thanks alot...

Has anyone tried using a different rechargeable battery yet? Like Energizer or something similar..

not yet .... maybe a (still think that) good quality rechargeable battery can prolong the lifetime or maybe is the same

IMO for most of the laser mouse, regardless of whatever mousing surface
tracking issue isn't noticeable unless you're a very high sensitivity user
like me, utilizing 4200dpi, I can notice if the mouse movement is "jumpty"
or "lost track" for just a very short moment

I like the "blue-ray" very much
but doubt if the tech does help to the tracking
Never thought anything than laser engine used can manage that

im kinda feelin a bit lag with my X8...is it wireless internet connection interference?
or tracking problem?urm...

Yea, i really like the 'metal scroll' of Sidewinder X8 too.. feels very solid esp. if u aircon room, can feel the coolness of it.. heh

Same like, love that 'AutoCruise' feature, i use it for mmo games like GuildWars which i need to travel a long distance

And great for games needed to crouch most of the time like Left4Dead

I considered myself pretty hardcore gamer.

So far i tested :-

If i switch off Sidewinder X8 when not in use, and switch it on only if im using, the total time before it the light starting blinking = total battery time = +-70hrs.

If i leave it on all the time = total battery time = 3.5 days.

Nice findings there.

I was hoping they add percentage of the battery life... oh well..

Cheers

lag? never seen the problem lag on this mouse maybe is ur computer not run well or etc. =/

yea..maybe...just feeling a bit lag...now all okay...

is any X5 user here? i need a feedback, isit comfort? tell me anything u can tell bout it hehe

yeah2...planning to have X5 in ear future

ask Enigmare since he got sells the X5.

But from the feedback, it since to be a comfort of non-rubberized gaming mouse =3

-2000dpi
-HD Laser Tracking
-Top + Bottom buttons
-Light in weight =)

the surface is made same with the X8 right? what surface isit

Hi, I am just wondering with the X6 keyboard, does it have the lock 'window' button feature like tat in the logitech G15?

surface? not clear what u are saying

but if u talking about the mouse structure surface then I can said X5 seems to be much more comfort than X8 because it better mouse feet also light and ergonomic feel quite nice (as better as X8 but smaller sized) + wheel is made with rubberized grip =3

Yes, Sidewinder X6 can "disable windows key"

Cheers

Hmm between the X6 and razer's lycosa. Which is a better buy ?

I'll think X6 :3...i not sure if Lycosa is the 1 that has some issue previously...imo though >_<

I just bought a x6. just one minor complaint is that the armrest is kinda short for my big hands.. wish it would be longer, other than that its good

woo congrat

looks like more sidewinder user coming in .....

but also hope microsoft produce more nice gaming product of sidewinders =3

Hi guys,

I read through some reviews and found that the sidewinder x6 is very noisy and the keys become unresponsive after sometimes? Apart from that some ppl find that [Ctrl] + W + R cannot be pressed together? In games such as TF2 or CoD4 they cant reload when crouching and moving forward... Anyone experience any of these?

I wanna knw all the facts before getting myself a keyboard... Thanks...
