SteelSeries Rival 5

Impressive RGB lighting ; 18,000 DPI ; Comfortable and ergonomic

Some of the buttons are a stretch ; Only enough storage for one profile ; No wireless option

Anyone looking for a colourful mouse to play FPS style games should consider the Steelseries Rival 5. It’s well priced with 9 programmable buttons, 18K DPI, 40G of acceleration and a 1,000kHz polling rate. While it won’t blow you away with a premium...

Nine buttons, including sniper button and tilting side paddle ; Lots of RGB customization ; Affordable

Shape is a little flat ; Distance to the thumb button is too long

Steelseries' nine-button Rival 5 wired mouse isn’t perfectly designed, but it still has a lot to offer for FPS enthusiasts and other gamers.

Comfortable grip ; Great software ; Plenty of buttons ; 18K CPI ; Affordable

Only 1K polling rate ; Up/down button is annoying

The SteelSeries Rival 5 is an excellent gaming mouse that balances affordability, comfort, programmability and precision.

Brilliant build quality.

No spare mouse feet included.

We like the way SteelSeries thought about how to wrap the cable without leading to harsh kinks, and the overall design and aesthetics are great. Build quality is spot on and all 9 buttons are snappy and responsive. As a one-size fits all mouse aimed at...

Great contour shape with right-handed ergonomics ; Supports all types of grips ; Good sensor performance ; 9 programmable buttons ; 80 million clicks lifespan switches

Out of reach toggle switch for fingertip users ; Can’t adjust the scroll wheel resistance ; 80 grams might still be too heavy for some

A solid, all rounder gaming mouse from SteelSeries with 9 programmable buttons

Comfortable, ergonomic shape ; Gorgeous lighting options ; Lots of buttons ; Intuitive software

No adjustable scroll wheel ; Paddle is hard to use

is our gold standard for gaming mice, and usually available for around the same price as the Rival 5. But if you want something that’s both straightforward and packed with RGB lighting, the Rival 5 is an easy recommendation.

Flot design og RGB effekter ; God sensor ; Stærk og smart software ; Gode knapper (på nær én)

Knappen i siden til op og ned ; Let (smagssag)

Rival 5 er en fin addering til SteelSeries’ i forvejen stærke lineup af gaming mus. Det er fedt at se en mus i denne klasse have så mange funktioner og tilmed et smukt design at “gemme” det hele i. Man ser nemlig slet ikke Rival 5 som en mus med hele 9...

SteelSeries Rival 5 är en välbyggd mus med många knappar till bra pris.

SteelSeries Rival 5 on taidolla suunniteltu ja edullinen hiiri, jossa on paljon painikkeita.
