SeekerSteelSeries Prime Mini
The SteelSeries Prime Mini is a great FPS gaming mouse. It's lightweight and feels well-built. It has mouse feet that glide very smoothly on mousepads and desks and a flexible paracord-like cable. It also has a comfortable, right-handed shape suitable for all grip types and most hand sizes. Performance-wise, it has low click latency, a very low lift-off distance, and you can adjust the CPI by increments of 50 within a very wide range. Unfortunately, the sensor is inconsistent and undershoots the CPI more during faster cursor movements.

The Prime Mini from Steelseries comes very close to being an ultralight gaming mouse for everyone, but some design choices may not be to everyone’s taste.

If you’re looking for a small and streamlined mouse, the Mini is a decent pick. The build quality is exceptional, the clicks are loud and satisfying, and the PTFE feet give the mouse a marvelous glide. And while it’s not going to blow the socks off of tinkerers, the software contains all the customization features I needed. However, the cord can be a nuisance and the size can be a hindrance. If you’ve got bigger hands or you’re unwilling to adjust your grip, you’ll want to look elsewhere.
