today I'll be unboxing my all-time favorite Mouse this is the SteelSeries I carry laser it is as I just said my all-time favorite Mouse and I have used a lot of mice from the likes of Razer Microsoft SteelSeries all of the big gaming companies Logitech and this one is just the best as far as I can tell now you might ask me why I'm unboxing something that is already my favorite and I haven't told you this yet but I already have over a year's experience using this Mouse and the reason is that mine finally gave up the ghost I've been using it for a long time and it started acting a little bit weird started registering single clicks as as a double click and so I mean I talked to SteelSeries about it they said that's a very unusual occurrence I do believe them because I've got a fair amount of other SteelSeries gear in my house and I've never had any problems with any of it but yeah anyway my old one was acting a little finicky so I got a new one shipped over and I am unboxing it so inside the box which I haven't managed to focus the camera on just yet I've just been kind of talking here inside the box you will find pretty much the mouse okay you'll find a plastic cover for the mouse you will also find a silica gel throw it away do not eat it please next you will find some more do not eat and then you will find out okay here we go here well we have little that's kind of neat so you unfold this and then there's a SteelSeries logo hidden in the packaging like that it's like completely hidden away until you until you open up the little doors and then behind those doors you will find a SteelSeries icarly's our driver software which actually okay i'm about to do something unusual you can go ahead and install the drivers from the disk because I don't believe that SteelSeries has ever updated this software the version on there site is version 1.0 and this is version 1.0 if if it's still if it's still like that and so I guess it goes to show you you're right a driver well the first time you never deal with it again I have a SteelSeries sticker I also have a little SteelSeries brochure about their other products including headsets keyboards and mousing surfaces and then I've got a little manual for the iqari laser shows you how to configure your mouse which which buttons do what you can also reconfigure them all talks about the spec of the mouse as well as showing you how to do profiles and macros and button settings sensitivity settings that's one of the coolest things about this mouse just like the zai which has actually come out to sort of replace the iqari laser I've got as I over there but it's kind of attached to a computer so it'll be kind of tricky to show it to you but just like design the iqari laser can be controlled in software to within one CPI now CPI is you can think of it as kind of like dpi but it's actually counts per inch rather than dots per inch so you can make adjustments unlike most gaming mice where you can go okay you know 500 700 1200 dpi those are your those are your levels you can actually take the Akari laser and you can set it to 623 CPI or you can set it to 624 CPI of 623 is a little too low now I personally find that to be one of the best features of this mouse and the next best one has got to be that this driverless that means that you you actually program your CPI settings your macros everything you want into the mouse itself it has onboard memory and when you plug it into the computer I'm going to show you there's actually a little display on the bottom just like this I just gonna plug that in so I can show you gold plated USB connector I should probably mention that okay so there's a little display on the bottom I'll zoom in so you can see it if I could just find my remote that shows you which profile you're using so you can set up a bunch of different profiles save them on your computer and then you can just easily check the bottom of the mouse to see which one you're using and that it just takes all of that profile information and you do not have to install any drivers on a you use the entire laser on and let me see what else should I talk about software is really easy to use you've got a couple of different oh yeah you can only adjust it for two different dpi or CPI settings so you press the button on the top and that light switch is to higher low and then I honestly I found I only needed to I needed one for regular use someone for sniping and then when you've got that because you can adjust it to such a fine degree you don't actually need to tinker with it a whole lot it has back and forward buttons on the side I'm doing a lot of zooming here I apologize for that has back and forward buttons on this side for your thumb and I should probably talk a little bit about the shape it's a fairly light Mouse but this is easily the most ergonomic Mouse that I have ever encountered ever because it just melts in your hands so to speak I mean it still works after the melting is all done but it just melts in your hand it is perfectly like it feels like an extension of your body when you're guiding it over a surface so that's pretty nice oh yeah it has nice big non-slip arm rather non-slip it has nice big slippy feet on the bottom so it's suitable for use with a hard surface as well as a soft surface I actually use a cloth pad with it the SteelSeries qck plus so it's their large thin cloth pad since I got this one they've actually released a thick a couple thick ones the mass as well as the heavy and I wouldn't mind trying one of those but it works exceptionally well the qck series thank you for checking out my unboxing of the steel series I carry laser my favorite mouse I've actually had a lot of people messaged me asking me about my favorite mouse this is it
