I like the size and shape very well. The programmable buttons make this mouse good for most apps. The 'always' on feature is great for my games, response is very good . I would buy it again and on Amazon the price was excellent. ......
I owned a Deathadder mouse before this one and that one kicked the bucket so I needed a cheaper mouse since I didn't want to pay fifty bucks for another. The Habu costed thirty dollars and shipping was free so it sounded like a good deal from the reviews. The problem I did run into was the exact same with my Deathadder software which had to be downloaded from the Razer site to work with Vista. The mouse will work when you plug it in but the features won't until you figure out the software and update. The mouse itself works fine now and plenty fast since I am currently running dual monitors and need a fast mouse. The setup and feel of the mouse is the exact same as the Deathadder as well which is something I really enjoyed. Overall though the software is bad the mouse itself is a great product.
Update:
If I could go back I would give this mouse three stars since the mouse wheel all of sudden started squeaking really bad. It is really loud and I have no clue how this happened since I dont really use it much.......
I bought the Microsoft Habu mouse to replace a malfunctioning Logitech G5 which decided to spontaneously turn itself off at random moments. Ergonomically, it's a solid, comfortable mouse to rest your hand on and particularly visually striking with a neon-blue light pipe running around the edge and also the wheel (this can be disabled if needed). The mouse comes with an alternate set of side buttons, but after playing around with both I found it more of a gimmick then honestly finding an real need to change them out from the original. The mouse sensor appears to be on-par with Logitech's, though it's located low on the mouse body and tends to cause lower sensitivity with certain wrist movements.
As with the G5, it has two buttons located below the wheel to adjust sensitivity on the fly. Unfortunately, it's missing the indicator LEDs of the G5, so switching is rather hit-and-miss (it certainly took me more then one tap on the button to change between settings) until you see a noticeable change in cursor performance on-screen.
It's also rather light. Without the additional weight to counterbalance, it's harder to fine tune control for twitch heavy applications, particularly FPS's. Rather then adjusting the mouse quickly, I found myself fiddling with programs mouse sensitivity options instead.
Having used both, I'd recommend the G5 over the Habu.......
First, the retailer offering this mouse through Amazon was VERY prompt. Free shipping and the mouse was here within three days which included a weekend! Props to Amazon and their network of retailers.
I own 2x Razer Copperhead mice, 1x Razer Diamondback, 1x Logitech G5, 1x Microsoft Intelli Explorer 3.0... and a few others. Of all these mice, IMO the Intelli Explorer 3.0 is THE MOST comfortable. I haven't been using it for the past 2 years because of the low DPI. In a dual screen work config, the high dpi laser mice allow for fast mouse movement with little hand movement.
Enter the Habu. The Habu is close to the Intelli Explorer 3.0 with the speed of the copperhead. Although it's not quite as comfortable, it's much much much better than the G5, and a little better than the copperhead.
The Habu offers fast mouse speeds and good comfort while not requiring a wrist pad. Solid mouse at a very attractive price.
BTW. Over a 2 year period I've had 1x Razer and the G5 die. Both companies offered a replacement HOWEVER both required I return the mouse to them for replacement. The one Microsoft item that failed, a sidewinder joystick, was replaced WITHOUT me sending it back to Microsoft. Microsoft's customer care, in my experience, is second to absolutely no one. If you purchase Microsoft's retail products you can expect a level of customer service usually only found in fairy tales. This truth is not said often enough.......
Recently bought the Habu gaming mouse and i must say I am not dissapointed. The tracking is the smoothest I have ever experienced and the sensitivity is adjustable, so you can be pin point accurate on your game. I highly recommend picking this up. ......
