i think it has dropped to around RM199
where rival is around rm219
if you can try the mouse then try it before you buy
kana is more for medium to small sized hand while rival is targeted at bigger hands

If its for you, which mousepad would you prefer for rival ?

Just bought the Steelseries Rival. Its quite good to use.
One thing I don't like is its wire which is not very flexible and it takes some time for me to get used to it.
Anyone else have this problem ?
And, I would like to ask, is the button under the scroll wheel used to toggle between profile ? I don't know why when I press the button nothing happens even though I already had 2 profiles.
Lastly, how to clean this mouse's surface as sometimes it will leave some fingerprints ?

cables is always like that when it came right out of the box,after a few days of usage it will loosen up
as for cleaning, wipe it with damp cloth will do

i change mouse frequently last time
getting one that feels most comfortable is crucial.
So better to feel it before buying it laugh.gif

thats the onboard settings
memory means the place it saves all your profile inside the mouse
dont think so they bring it in
i've never seen it in any shops

Can I ask, how to change profile on-the-fly using the button under the mouse wheel of steelseries rival ?
Because when I click the button it doesn't do anything.

profile cycle
Means each press advance 1 profile
1>2>3>4>5>1

Mine just doesn't work. The button's function on settings is CPI toggle already.

finally my SS Rival arrived. rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif
mini review of the SS Rival
user posted image   
user posted image

compared to my previous CM Storm Inferno, the SS Rival is significantly longer but shorter at height. the weight is about the same. Rival's mouse click is stiffer but easy to adjust to and the noise is softer than the Inferno. there are two things to complain about the Rival. 1) that it doesn't come with braided cable; 2) the middle button only toggles CPI but there's no indication as to which CPI profile is currently in use. rclxub.gif the matte surface feels comfortable but it does attract a lot of fingerprints/oil/sweat and need constant clearning (wipe it with cloth after use)

Pros:
Comfortable shape and matte surface
Fancy 16mil lighting choices
Soft mouse click sound
Huge thumb buttons for easy access
Simple and no-nonsense extra buttons

Cons:
Matte surface attracts fingerprints/sweat/dust
Non-braided cable
No indication of current CPI profile

Bro, does the rival side buttons can be used to open specific programs or change between mouse profiles ?

I am having a hard time deciding between Steelseries Siberia V2, V3 and Prism, as most said the difference between the V2 and the V3 is not huge. There's a Ramadhan promotion for the V3 Prism too, which makes it's price even lower and same with the V2, but because it is using USB connector so I am having some doubts. Also, my laptop only has a combo jack and I think V3 suits it the best since it also has only a 3.5mm jack and not the usual dual headset and mic jack. I need some suggestions here. Please do help me decide this !
