THE M.O.U.S.9

The M.O.U.S.9 is available in three glossy plastic colors (black, red and white) and in black matte. Size-wise it measures 105mm in length (125mm with the palm-rest extended), 65mm in width and 38mm in height.

There are three buttons placed on the left side of the M.O.U.S.9 along with a power LED placed in front of them. The round one is called Precision Control and it serves the purpose of slowing down the movement of the cursor when pressed.

Mad Catz has placed a large wheel on the unit which can be used for things like zoom in/out.

The company logo is placed not once but twice at the rear of the M.O.U.S.9.

Usually with most R.A.T. models this is where we find the weight adjustment system and the Allen key, the M.O.U.S.9 however is different and so this is the AA battery compartment.

The palm rest extends a total of 20mm so it can come in very handy for people with large hands.

The usual DPI selection and profile (both silver in color) buttons this time over can be used as regular programmable ones.

Unfortunately the interchangeable pinkie rest feature of the R.A.T. series didn't make it to the M.O.U.S.9.

The scroll wheel is very soft but not inaudible when used fast.

There are six feet beneath the M.O.U.S.9 which give it very good gliding on wood, glass and aluminum (the 3 surfaces we used in this review).

Next to the Avago 8020 laser sensor we see the power on/off switch and the company logo.

The tiny USB Bluetooth nano dongle is stored beneath the mouse, just press it and it will pop out.

The M.O.U.S.E.9 features no illumination effects so the only LED you will see is the blue power one.
