A4Tech - a mouse for real gamers. Mouse Review A4Tech

Recently, many users, far from games, began to look towards gaming optical mice. This is no wonder, because only game mods have several programmable buttons that can not only perform a number of specified functions, but also be able to understand macros that are very in demand among writers, artists, designers, accountants and businessmen. All of the above is possible thanks to the company A4Tech, which exists on the market not for the first decade and accurately understands the production of peripherals. In the focus of the article - the product A4Tech, a game optical mouse. The review of worthy modifications is presented.

First interest

The first device, which attracted the attention of many buyers, was the model A4Tech X7. A mouse with a rather interesting design, at an affordable price, with extra customizable buttons and a very long cable for connecting to a USB port. The manufacturer produced a unique device. Made of high-strength plastic mouse can not be broken or accidentally broken. In the case nothing creaks and does not lend itself to deformation. If there is a desire to clear the mouse of dust and dirt, disassembly and assembly will not cause any problems.

When connecting to any computer device A4Tech X7 (mouse) driver is required. Hardware control of the sensor resolution works without additional programs. But to configure additional buttons the driver should still be installed.

Gaming mouse to help an office worker

To understand how a gaming mouse can help an office employee, you need to remember which operations the user performs most often while working. For example, "cut", "copy" and "paste" when creating a report. It remains to understand how this is implemented by A4Tech X7. The mouse, the driver for which was necessarily downloaded from the official site and installed on the computer, can be configured by each user for themselves using a special editor.

When you open the editor immediately strikes a photo of the mouse itself with the selected and numbered buttons. When you place the cursor on a specific button, you must select the desired action from the drop-down list of functions. It is worth noting that the buttons of the game mouse can be set and a combination of keys, which is also offered in the menu. As is known to any user that in the Windows operating environment, that in the software, any combination of keys can be assigned not only one action, but a whole script or macro.

Use the game mouse for the purpose

The most sold for the last few years is considered to be the mouse A4Tech V8. After the international exhibition CeBIT in 2013 the device has been subjected to a lot of tests and reviews, as well as criticized by competitors. All this in combination allowed the game mouse to climb to the top of popularity in the game world.

1. The claimed response time of one millisecond has been proven by several independent experts. It's incredible, but it's a fact.
2. There is even a paid, but still working function for cheaters called Core 3.
3. Built-in memory, high resolution with the link of the backlight indicator, great weight and ease of use are all great pluses of the legendary gaming mouse.

Functionality from the manufacturer for fans of "cheats"

In addition to interesting design, good assembly and great functionality, the A4Tech Bloody V5 gaming mouse has one more plus - it is created for players who use cheats in games - fraudulent methods for gaining advantages in the game. The software supplied with the mouse allows the player to fine-tune the device. Fans of running around with weapons in online games, as well as fans of the world of tanks, will be interested in the Core 3 function. It allows you to customize the mouse so that the barrel is completely removed when shooting, reducing the shooting accuracy to 100%.

There is also a fly in the ointment - the manufacturer presents the functionality in the demo version, limiting the use of the setting of one thousand shots. To get the full version of the program, you need to buy the code from the developers, the cost of which is 20 conventional units. A very interesting configuration of the mouse will please owners with the availability of three spare sets of Teflon legs with a low coefficient of friction and the presence of a special cloth for wiping the device.

Play kit for a real guru

And if we talk about macros and scripts used actively in games, then the game mouse A4Tech alone can not satisfy the player with the presence of several additional buttons. You will need to buy a game kit. Studying the reviews of many fans of games of different genres, we can conclude that the best and inexpensive kit for the game mouse is the unique in its class multifunction keyboard A4Tech G800V X7.

Several years ago it was this keyboard that was offered for purchase as a set for the X7 series mice. Later, for unknown reasons, the manufacturer released updated keyboards with less functionality. In addition to additional buttons located on the mouse, the user gets thirteen customizable keys located on the keyboard. A nice addition is also the ability to control the keyboard delayed pressing buttons and blocking the accidental press of the Start button.

To strike on impassability

It was with this slogan that the manufacturer introduced the mouse of the V-Track series to fans of the A4Tech X7. The reinforced V-shaped laser beam is able to work on any surface, even on ice. The statement is quite serious, because for most game lovers, the main problem in controlling the mouse is the failure of the cursor due to poor-quality coverage of the rug or its multi-colored color. And then such a statement!

After the tests it was found that the manufacturer does not deceive its customers, the mouse really knows how to keep the cursor on different surfaces. Also, the positive features of V-Track mice include the ability to control the settings of additional buttons, inherent in the entire line of X7. The disadvantage is one, and it is not very critical for A4Tech products - the mouse has a colorful surface coating that is quickly erased, presenting the user's eyes with ordinary black plastic. This suggests that the point is to overpay for decorating the mouse with the manufacturer's color drawings, no. Perhaps in the future he will correct his mistake.

All inclusive in terms of convenience

Convenience in working with the mouse is considered to be not only the presence of additional buttons. The banal absence of wires is also a virtue. So, the gaming mouse A4Tech series R has a built-in battery and can work wirelessly. A huge plus in this device is the ability to charge the device directly during operation from a personal computer via USB cables , in contrast to competitors who supply complete docking stations that limit the use of the mouse.

Apparently, the painting with the manufacturer is not as good as in wired models, it is erased in a very short period of time, giving the user a miserable sight. Judging by the numerous reviews of owners, there is a negative and relative to the capacity of the battery. Unlike competitors, the A4Tech mouse must be charged once a week. That sometimes creates inconvenience to players, constantly sitting in front of a large TV screen.

No to conservatism

A novelty, about which you can only hear positive reviews, will interest any player that is keeping pace with the times and technologies of A4Tech. A mouse labeled NB-30 is considered to be wireless. It's funny that there are no batteries in it either. After all, this is a radio with inductive power.

It's all about the rug that comes with the mouse and must be connected to the computer via the USB port. It is he who is the link between her and the cursor on the monitor screen. The mouse is quite suitable for games, at small sizes it will perfectly lie in the child's hand, and its considerable weight will not allow it to be accidentally torn from the surface. The transmission frequency is 124 Hz, which is enough for most active games.

The only drawback that was found in the testing process, most users are not afraid. As it turned out, when you find a rug in a radius of 20 cm from the CRT monitor creates a powerful tip that blocks the mouse. But with the LCD, which stand on the table in 99% of Russians, there were no problems in the work.

Finally

Having studied the market of game manipulators, it can be concluded that there is no shortage of devices. Mice are represented by different modifications, sizes, with different functions. All that remains for the user is to decide on the model. However, you need to understand that in most cases, not a product, but a brand, is bought. It is the quality of the product and its reliability that determine the fate of the device.

It's safe to say that all the rulers that the A4Tech mouse represent (Bloody, X7, R8, NB and others) have passed thousands of tests in all measure and have mostly positive reviews. Accordingly, to all game lovers, professionals recommend paying attention to the products of the company A4Tech.
