THE MINOS X3

 
The MINOS X3 is a small to medium sized gaming mouse since its 94g heavy housing measures 122mm in length, 67mm in width and 40mm in height.

Most of the left side is rubberized and has two buttons.

COUGAR has placed their logo at the rear of the housing (this is also part of the 3-Zone LED backlight).

A large rubberized section is also present on the right side.

The backlight adjustment button is placed were we usually find the DPI selection button.

The clickable scroll wheel is rubber coated and also the 3rd LED backlight zone.

Turning the MINOX X3 over we see two large PTFE feet, the LED IR sensor, two switches (DPI/Polling rate) and the primary LED backlight zone.

The 1.8 meter long rubber cable of the MINOS X3 has a regular USB plug on its end.

Before you actually use the MINOS X3 i strongly recommend grabbing the latest firmware update from the COUGAR support page and install it as seen above.

Orange is the first LED color you will see once you plug the device into your computer.

The partial ring that surrounds the base of the MINOS X3 looks great.

Light blue, green, purple, red, deep blue, yellow and white are the colors you can choose for the 3-Zone LED backlight.
