SMALL, TOUGH AND RGB LIGHTING - GAMING MOUSE REVIEW ASUS TUF GAMING M5

The TUF Gaming M5 launched about a year ago is a wired gaming mouse that fits both right and left. It is lightweight, ergonomic, has cool RGB back lighting, is equipped with a PixArt sensor and six Tactical 

buttons with Omron programmable programmable switches

Design - small, lightweight and well built

From a design standpoint, the mouse is quite small and mostly suitable for those of you who are used to claw-grip mouse, which means the fingers are folded, and I personally have been a little hard to get used to this grip, because I'm used to larger mice like HyperX's Pulsefire FPS for example

The mouse is built really well and feels like it is made of high quality materials, whether it is the hard plastic, or the durable outer coating, which Asus has also successfully passed several stringent tests and is very resistant to abrasion, sweat in the palm and even falls and fractures. I can confirm the abrasion and sweat resistance after playing with it for quite some time, but regarding the third parameter, I have to admit that I did not try to drop or break it, because Assos will probably not allow me to do it, so I do not know for sure how durable.

Overall, after getting used to the size of the mouse, it is quite comfortable for gaming and also for working with the computer, and I also liked the texture that the plastic has on the sides of the mouse, which, besides being pretty, also contributes to a more comfortable grip.

The back of the mouse has the TUF logo with RGB lighting that can be controlled via ASUS Armory II software. There are four different 

lighting effects and they are: 

• Static, this effect causes the lighting to turn on regularly in the selected color

• Breathing, turns the lighting on or off slowly

•  Reactive, every click of a mouse button will turn on the lighting and then turn it off slowly and stay off until the next click.

 I personally less liked this situation .. or Color Cycle showing all the colors the mouse has to offer. By the way, this is the effect I like the most.

In addition, lighting can be synchronized with the other ASUS products connected to the computer through the Aura Sync.

Experience and performance

The mouse has six tactile buttons and some programmable noises through the ASUS software, where you can also set the dpi button sensitivity level for two different modes ranging from 100 to 6200dpi. Plus, you can also set the Polling Rate, that is, the pace or speed at which the mouse communicates with the computer and the response time of the buttons. By the way, the mouse has a built-in memory that can store up to three profiles for different types of games, which you can quickly access through the mouse buttons without .running its software

According to ASUS, Omron's high-quality switches are up to 50 million clicks, and in terms of acting and regular work they are quite comfortable to use, respond quickly and have no complaints about them except they are a bit noisy. The mouse pulley is also very convenient for work. She is stable, broad, not hard to press, she runs smoothly and accurately but at the same time is a bit noisy when scrolling up with he

To purchase the mouse Asus TUF Gaming M5

The mouse sensor, the PixArt PAW3327 is not one of the most advanced sensors on the market today, but it is accurate and does a great job in games and in daily work.

On the bottom line, the TUF M5 is a very strong and stable mouse, which is well built and made of high quality materials. He is quite small and is something to get used to, but once you get used to it, it is very fun to play with him. It is very accurate, it has RGB backlight with a variety of colors and effects, it has durable and high-quality buttons that respond quickly, but along with all these benefits there are also some drawbacks like its cable which is pretty standard and also its price, which I think is a bit expensive for such a mouse ..
