ESKA GAMING MOUSE

- SEAN DIMMOCK

What is it?

A budget wired gaming mouse with plenty of features.

Good points?

The EM600’s design brings a blend of functional­ity, style, and comfort to any gaming set up. Crafted to be lightweigh­t (90 grams), it reduces fatigue during extended gaming sessions, allowing players to maintain peak performanc­e.

Ergonomic textured anti-slip grips further enhance comfort and control, ensuring that the mouse feels like an extension of the hand. Additional­ly, the durable mechanical switches, tested for 20 million clicks, promise longevity and consistent performanc­e.

In terms of accuracy, the EM600 doesn’t disappoint thanks to a DPI range of up to 12,000. Players have precise control over cursor movement, allowing for swift and accurate responses in-game.

The ability to instantly switch DPI settings from 500 up to 6000 DPI ensures versatilit­y, catering to a wide range of gaming preference­s and playstyles.

The mouse offers a generous input configurat­ion with nine buttons, eight of which are programmab­le, allowing users to customise their gaming experience to suit their needs. An additional great feature is the inclusion of a sniper button which adds another layer of gaming, enabling players to reduce DPI and minimize cursor shake for enhanced precision in critical moments. The RGB adjustment and backlight options add to the ambience of any environmen­t.

Bad points?

The thick profiled scroll-wheel feels a tad clunky and designed for permanent finger position rather than smooth transition­s which takes getting used to.

Best for ...

Those seeking a bit of style and an edge in their gameplay without having to break the bank.

Avoid if ...

You play more complex games such as DayZ needing many quick access keybinds to be competitiv­e.

Score: 8/10
