Bigbruin, ThinkComputers, and TweakTown have reviewed mice from NZXT and Gigabyte.

Let's see what they had to say:

  • Bigbruin: NZXT Avatar Gaming Mouse Review:

    "This may be NZXT's first foray into gaming mice, but they have produced a solid initial offering. The Avatar seems to mix elements from other popular gaming mice with a bit of NZXT's own innovation to create a recommendable product.

    The comfort and performance of the mouse are key selling points, but the high level of customization is obviously important, too. While I was initially concerned that the low weight would really lower my enthusiasm about the product, I found that over time I could get used to it. The mouse would be far more appealing with an adjustable weight system, as I have a feeling that while many users could get used to the weight, they might not want to."

  • ThinkComputers: NZXT Avatar Gaming Mouse Review:

    "Overall the NZXT Avatar mouse is a pretty good mouse for NZXT's first attempt at one. The ambidextrous design allows all types of gamers, especially with small hands to feel comfortable with their mouse. I really didn't find anything wrong with the mouse itself other than the small design didn't quite work 100% for my large hand. I only found the software to be lacking with fine tuning of DPI settings, but at least they made that up with being able to adjust the polling rate, which I can't say that I've seen on any other software."

  • TweakTown: GIGABYTE GM-M7700 Wireless Laser Laptop Mouse‏:

    "With all this nifty gear stuffed into it, you might think the mouse is a little oversized for a travelling companion. But in actuality, it’s one of the smallest wireless mice I have reviewed; maintaining the delicate balance of being small enough to slip in a laptop bag, but at the same time still fitting comfortably in the hand.

    As can be seen in these pictures below, the comparison in size to Microsoft’s Explorer Mini mouse shows that this mouse is a much tighter package to one of its main rivals. However, I prefer the rubber grips of the GM-M7700 as it gives the mouse a much nicer feel when being held for long periods of time."
