Sidewinder X5 owner for a few months here.

Happy with it so far, despite the rather inconvenient positioning of the 2 macro buttons, which I keep accidentally clicking on.

Using Sidewinder X5 and Sidewinder X4, satisfied.
The macro buttons for Sidewinder X4 at first feel kinda awkward to press with while playing DotA, then after sometime it's quite convenient! xD

But the Arctosa, if I'm not mistaken, does not have any extra buttons for macro purposes right?

Edit: Nevermind. I checked it out. Sorry for going a little off topic as well. smile.gif

A bit late but I'm a happy Sidewinder X6 user.

The only thing that bugs me, is that I constantly mis-press the lower left macro button thinking that its the CTRL button. Takes a lot of time getting used to.

I wished they had a tilt function as well, but its all good.

X4 is not really wat i am looking for...

somehow it looks too plastic to me, even though it's cheap...

X6, how to say, design too strange to my liking, moreover Logitech G110 at same price as X6...

no offence, but for me, MS still has some work to do for keyboard...

Its similar case with foobar, but in foobar config, there's an option to check Global Hotkey for any of the Multimedia keys we use.

This will allow the key press to override whether the media player is in focus or not(minimized).
