While unpacking the Cyber Snipa Silencer gaming mouse I thought it looked large, and it is. Upon measuring it I found it slightly taller than my Cyber Snipa Stinger and a lot wider,
between 0.5 and 2.5cm in particular areas. As the Stinger is my ideal gaming mouse at present I’ll use it as comparison.
The Silencer offers up to 5000 DPI (as low as 100 DPI), 9 programmable buttons (box, the instruction manuals says 10), 4-way mouse wheel, 7200 frame rate 150 inches per second tracking and a weight system (six 4.9g weights for a total 29.4g). Yet with all that new technology, it still didn’t track very well on my now aging mouse mat. Actually, it does but at times and for no apparent reason, it doesn’t do well at all. Generally, in the morning when I fire up the monitor and move the mouse it is slow and jittery. It seems like an old Ford where it needs to warm up before it’s ready to roll.
The mouse also comes with a removable weight system. The weights come in a standard case and when you open the side of the mouse where the exchangeable rubber side grip is (right side)
there is a tray to place them that locks into place in the mouse. For the interchangeable rubber side grip you have two to choose from - a smooth one and one with a groove where your fingers can rest. The Silencer also features a 4-way, clickable mouse wheel and on the fly DPI switching as well as a mode button that allows you to cycle through seven different profiles, each which can have buttons mapped for specific things.
Personally, I don’t like the mouse all that much. The point at the back of it jabs into your hand during use and becomes irritating and the hard top edge that leads to that point is also mildly irritating. The slightly higher profile of the mouse makes it less comfortable than the optimal Cyber Snipa Stinger height.
