Pros + Cons

Pro
 Gets all the little nuances that make a mouse comfortable to use just right

The left and right mouse buttons have small grooves to help fingers rest in place. The left side lets the thumb grip the mouse comfortably. The side buttons are in an easily accessible, yet unobtrusive, position. The coating is slightly textured to help you control the mouse confidently. It also weighs just 94 grams, making it light enough for quick mouse movements and won't cause fatigue after extended use. At the same time, it feels solidly built. Its elegant, ergonomic design is suitable for most hand sizes regardless of the way you hold it. It's worth noting that if you prefer larger mice, Zowie sells EC1-A, which is just a bigger version of the same mouse.
Comment

Con
 Limited customizability

None of the buttons can be rebound, there are no macros, profiles, or customizable weights. And while the EC2-A allows you to customize the most important performance settings - CPI, lift-off distance, and USB polling rate - their customization is limited to preset intervals.
Comment

Pro
 Well built

EC2-A is made of high quality plastic that's lightly coated to help with grip. The buttons click easily and the rubber cable is thin and flexible. All of this combined gives a feeling of quality, while also being functional as a high-end mouse.
Comment

Pro
 No extra cruft

There's no advanced functionality or accompanying software. There are just 5 buttons and the only settings you can adjust are CPI, polling rate and lift-off distance. And only in preset intervals via specific mouse button combinations. It's a mouse that focuses on the essential factors only - comfort, performance and build quality - all of which it excels at. It doesn't get distracted with anything else. If you think all the bells and whistles that come with gaming mice are unnecessary, this just might be what you're looking for.
Comment

Con
 DPI switch can't be accessed during use

The DPI switch is a button that can’t be accessed while in use because it's located under the mouse.
Comment

Pro
 Excellent accuracy

EC2-A has a highly accurate 3200 CPI optical sensor with no angle snapping, hardware acceleration or jitter.
Comment

Con
 You have to learn button combinations to change settings

EC2-A has no accompanying software. Settings have to be changed through various button combinations. As a result the initial setup can be a bit of a hassle.

Comment

Con
 Extra travel on side buttons

Side buttons have a bit of pre-travel. You have to press in about 1mm more than usual for the mouse to register the side button clicks. Some may find this annoying, though it helps avoid accidentally clicking side buttons in-game.
Comment

Pro
 No unnecessary functionality

Zowie has kept the mouse remarkably simple. There's no RGB lighting, adjustable weights, or superfluous buttons that end up only getting in the way. It's plug-and-play and requires no additional software. You can customize only the essential settings such as lift off distance, polling rate, or switch between left or right-handed modes with just a combination of specific button presses.

 Excellent 3200 CPI optical sensor

The Zowie FK1 gaming mouse uses an Avago 3310 optical sensor which is regarded as one of the best in the world. It has no built-in acceleration and no angle snapping. It’s practically jitter-less when set at 125 and 500Hz polling rate, and has barely noticeable jitter at 1000Hz. The Avago 3310 has no native CPI, it is made to have each step of 50 CPI work as well as the previous one. With CPI steps of 400/800/1600/3200 for the FK1, all CPI choices should work equally well.
Comment

Pro
 Comfortable for most grip types

FK1 has a very universal shape and size, making it a safe choice for most people regardless of grip type and hand size. Except for people with large hands who use the palm grip, who may need a larger model of the mouse.
Comment

 There's no driver software to deal with, it's just plug'n'play

Pro
 Can be used by both righties and lefties

Comment

Con
 Two of the side buttons are unutilized in normal use

While the mouse has four side buttons, only two of them can be used at a time, depending on which hand you are using it with.
Comment

Con
 Not quite as comfortable as a non-ambidextrous mouse

Due to its thoroughly ambidextrous design, sometimes the ring and pinky fingers can touch the side buttons. Even though they are deactivated and won’t cause mispresses, they are still not as comfortable as non-ambidextrous designs.
Comment

Con
 Only 4 DPI settings

Even though the ADNS-3310 sensor supports DPI settings in increments of 50, the FK1 only lets you choose between 400 / 800 / 1600 / 3200 DPI.
Comment

Con
 A bigger model might be needed for large handed people who prefer a palm grip

Due to its short height and the small hump on top of the mouse, it might not be suitable for people with large hands who prefer using a palm grip.

 A low lift-off-distance of about 1.5-1.8mm

The standard lift off distance on a cloth mouse pad is 1.5-1.8mm though it will be a bit higher when using a plastic pad being 2.2 - 2.4mm. To enable the plastic pad setting a certain button combination has to be pressed on the gaming mouse itself.

 Highly customizable

In addition to the standard left, right, and scroll wheel buttons, there's a buttons below the scroll wheel, three thumb buttons, two buttons to the left of the left mouse button and you can tilt the mouse wheel left and right for extra functionality as well. All of these buttons can be programmed to do pretty much whatever you want. The scroll wheel can act as a smooth unhindered scroll or a notched scroll depending on how you want to use it. It has an on-the-fly CPI switch with 5 states and the mouse can store three different macro profiles and can switch between them with a button press. You can also customize the weight of the gaming mouse between 121-139 grams and its center of balance with up to five 3.6 gram weights to adjust how it feels as it moves across your mousepad.

 Amazing 12000 CPI optical sensor

The Logitech G502 Proteus Core gaming mouse has an impressively accurate 12000 CPI optical sensor that's capable of tracking speeds up to 7.5 m/s. There is no acceleration, angle snapping, prediction or jitter even at max CPI.
Comment

Con
 Too heavy for competitive FPS

Most competitive FPS gaming mice aim to weigh under 100 grams. The G502 weighs 121 grams, which can be further increased to 139 grams with extra weights. The increased weight makes it more difficult to move quickly. It also means your hand will get tired quicker.

Con
 Software is Windows-only (but now supports Mac)

LGS (Logitech Gaming Software) does not have Linux support, so the mouse cannot be tuned or configured under those operating systems. However, if the mouse is configured on a different OS, the configuration will work on Linux, since the profiles are stored on the mouse itself.

Con
 The LED behind the G is really bright (can be disabled though)

The LED backlit G on the back of the mouse can be quite bright in a dark room. For users that do not want to use the application that is necessary (or can't, like say Linux users) the light is unable to be turned off. Of course within the application for the mouse the light may be completely turned off.
Comment

Pro
 Comfortable side button placement

Even though the gaming mouse is a bit small, the button placement feels just right.
Comment

Con
 Potential pinning bug

Changing the surface setting in the app may potentially cause random spinning ingame for a random period of time (usually ~5sec). This has something to do with the surface of the mousepad being used and a particular setting of the mouse. In order to address this issue, you can return the mouse back to its default surface setting.
Comment

Con
 Made for right handed users only

The mouse is asymmetric, and there is no left-handed model.
Comment

Con
 Can get uncomfortable after long usage due to weight and shape (especially for larger hands)

The mouse weight is already a lot, but for better upward and downward weight distribution, it asks you to insert at least 2 weights in. The shape, however is very much based on hand size and angle preference.

 Great at high speeds

The G402, unlike many other mice, won't spaz out if you move the mouse faster than the sensor can pick up the readings. The sensor has a max read speed of about 2.7 m/s, but the G402 uses an accelerometer and a gyroscope that will help fill in the missing data in case you outpace the sensor. That should eliminate any worry of judder or other tracking issues ruining your game. It's a great feature if you're a low-sensitivity gamer and sometimes move the mouse really quickly.

Ideal shape for fingertip grip. Diamond shape allows to move mouse freely in wider range, so it does not come in contact with palm.

 Button in front of scroll wheel is awkwardly placed

The button in the front of the scroll wheel is difficult to press when holding the mouse normally, while it is always nice to have more options of programmable buttons, the placement makes it difficult to use as ones grip will need ot be changes, which takes time off of other actions that one may need to perform.

 Long list of customization options, for a budget mouse

This mouse has some basic sensor-related customization.You can modify the polling rate, DPI amount, lift-off distance and even angle snapping. The angle snapping is an on/off choice instead of a slider. Its UIX companion software has an extensive list of customization options, notably long for a budget mouse. It includes lighting options, button rebinding, macros, DPI changing, multiple profiles and several other smaller features that even other non-budget mice don’t have.

 Forward / back buttons wear easily

The two buttons located on the side of the mouse (sometimes known as the page forward and page back buttons for internet browsers) wear out easily after only a few months of usage.

 Excellent budget sensor

The Avago A3050 optical sensor that the Lua uses has small, unnoticeable prediction and doesn’t carry over perfect tracking at high speeds (depending on the chosen DPI setting, over 60-120 inches per second or 1.5 m/s-3 m/s). But unless you use it at extremely low sensitivity, it shouldn’t be a problem. When reaching such speeds, some negative acceleration may be noticed.
Comment

Pro
 Good amount of customization is provided by the accompanying software

The software is very simple and easy to use. It lets you change the DPI steps, double click speed, vertical scroll speed, polling rate, very basic lighting control and the choice of hand-mode. In addition, it has the option to reassign its buttons, but since the Lua has only four buttons it’s practically useless as the main three are almost always invariable.

 Well suited for fingertip and claw grips

Unless you have small hands, this is a mouse that is meant for people who use either the claw or fingertip grip.

 Uses an outdated sensor

 Small size takes some getting used to

The Roccat Lua is a small mouse, measuring only 11.5 cm in length and 3 cm in height. The width is pretty standard with 6.5 cm at the back and narrows down towards the front. The small size might raise some concern about the grip. If it’s your first mouse of this size you might need to adjust your grip to accommodate for the smaller scale of the mouse. Commonly the grips change and include some elements of a fingertip grip.
