SeekerRazer Abyssus Essential
The Razer Abyssus Essential is a very good FPS gaming mouse. It's somewhat lightweight, has very good click latency, a very low minimum lift-off distance, and feels well-built. It also has a true ambidextrous design, so it's equally well-suited for right- and left-handed gamers. Unfortunately, it doesn't have side buttons, it has a somewhat narrow CPI range, and you can only adjust the CPI by increments of 100. Additionally, its feet make a slight scratching sound on mousepads and desks, and its rubber cable feels cheap and has poor flexibility.

The Razer Abyssus Essential fills a very specific niche: It's a gaming mouse with basic features, RGB lighting, and a design that works well for both lefties and righties.

For £50, the Razer Abyssus Essential is a satisfactory bit of kit for PC players, but seldom pushes the boat in terms of exciting features.
