Attitude One Rapira Elite Laser Gaming Mouse Review

If you happen to like real time strategy and space simulator gamers then chances are you are aware that Starpoint Gemini 2 one of the best space RTS we've seen in a while was just launched. It's not really a breathtaking game since the graphics are not what you'd expect for a 2014 title, it still has some bugs that need addressing (for example ships firing on their own at the end of missions) and it's certainly not of the same magnitude as the upcoming Star Citizen - Squadron 42 by Chris Roberts and Elite Frontier by David Braben (although these focus a lot more on the simulation part) but it's a good way to spend time and if my memory serves me right Steam should have it on sale right now so if you do happen to like space RTS i strongly recommend taking a look. That being said I’ve been using Starpoint Gemini 2 along with Dead Rising 3 for the past week to test several of the latest gaming mice to hit the market and today we can finally bring you the review of the Rapira Elite Laser Gaming Mouse by Attitude One.

Attitude One was founded in USA in 2011. With many years of experience from the computer and gaming business we decided to start Attitude One. Thanks to our knowledge and our connections in the industry, we can offer products and technologies that are always top of the line. With our unique design and memorable product names our products spread throughout markets of the world.

When i first got my hands on pictures of the Rapira Elite long before it was released i was surprised to see that Attitude One took some design hints from Mionix since the design of the Rapira Elite is almost identical to their NAOS 8200 gaming mouse. However the similarities between these two gaming mice don't end there since they both 7 programmable buttons and use the same ADNS9800 laser sensor by Avago featuring 8200DPI (dots per inch), 12000FPS (frames per second), 150IPS (inches per second), 30G acceleration and 10.8MP resolution. In case you're wondering this is a good thing since the NAOS 8200 gaming mouse is considered by many to be the best model released by Mionix to date so it's nice to see that Attitude One is paying attention. That being said there are certainly more things to a gaming mouse than just its design and laser sensor so let's see how the Rapira Elite compares to many other gaming mice and of course the NAOS 8200 by Mionix.
