INTRODUCTION

   It doesn't really matter if you're a casual, hardcore or professional eSPORTS gamer since the moment you visit your local electronics superstore and head to the computers section chances are that you will be overwhelmed by the sheer number of available gaming mice. Of course as expected (and i consider this to be right) the eye usually falls on models designed and manufactured by the most well-known and established manufacturers out there but there are certainly exceptions to that rule especially when design and price occupy the two top spots in priority for the interested party. COUGAR became quite the popular name after releasing several high quality PC cases and power supply units which also combined performance and features but it wasn't until just recently that they announced the release of their very first gaming peripherals and today with us we have their flagship gaming mouse model, the 700M.

   COUGAR products are designed by COUGAR GERMANY, a professional R&D engineering team and COUGAR is part of the “HEC/COMPUCASE” Group.

   The 700M laser gaming mouse by COUGAR is not your average mouse since it aside the high quality aluminum frame it also allows the end user to customize all of its 8 programmable buttons, set the weight system by adding up to 18g more and adjust the height of the palm rest to further improve comfort and grip. Once again just like the recently reviewed Rapira Elite the 700M makes use of the very fast and quite popular ADNS-9800 laser sensor by Avago which gives the mouse a resolution of 8200DPI with a framerate of 12000fps, tracking speed of 150IPS and up to 30G acceleration. The specifications of the 700M are completed by OMRON switches (5 million clicks), polling rate of 1000Hz/1ms, onboard 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0 CPU and 512Kb of memory used to store and switch between the 3 available profiles. So as you can see COUGAR obviously studied quite a bit prior to releasing the 700M laser gaming mouse, the how much is up to us to find out.
