today's video has made possible by Squarespace what's up Internet Kevin here on TECA tomorrow it's been just a little while since my last video I know but today I'm bringing guys a new accessory review we're talking about the mionix a V or 7000 ambidextrous gaming mouse now as the name implies the big draw of this mouse is it symmetrical ambidextrous design we're going to talk about the benefits and drawbacks to a design like this as well as what other strengths weaknesses the mouse has so let's check it out so to begin with I want to talk about the main thing that's been advertised and marketed about this mouse and that's the fact that it is an ambidextrous Mouse now what makes it ambidextrous is the fact that it is perfectly symmetrical it's got the same kind of curvature on both the left and right side it has identical buttons on each side and the only case you're having just a single copy of a button without a twin is when it's in the direct middle which is where we have the scroll wheel and a pair of buttons that are initially pre-programmed for adjusting your DPI settings with preset settings of four hundred sixteen hundred and seven thousand epi now what's great about this is the fairly obvious point that it's well ambidextrous it works just as well in your left or right hand but what's really a great about the aviorans it's actually really comfortable while being ambidextrous there's a lot of mice out there that go for an ambidextrous design but it just doesn't fit your hand all that well in the left or right it just ends up feeling uncomfortable either way but the avior actually feels pretty solid in either hand what's also really cool about its design is that it's curved just right to where it also works for multiple different style of handling options if you like using more palm grip or a claw grip style on your mouse it'll work either way with the havior so if you yourself are ambidextrous or you find yourself having to switch between your left and right hand often or if you're just in a household where multiple people are using the same computer and have different hand provinces than the Avior is an excellent option thanks to its biggest strength which is of course its versatility now the problem is when you focus on versatility you inevitably have to give up on specialization the fact of the matter is that no matter how comfortable the havior is for an ambidextrous mouse it's still not going to be as comfortable as a mouse that's specialized specifically for your left or right hand and it's not just a matter of how comfortable the grip is either button placement also becomes an issue when you do this whole mirror image thing you end up having two buttons available to your thumb which is comfortable and normal to use but then you have two more buttons they have to use your ring finger for which just doesn't feel nearly as intuitive so you practically cut your macro options in half to reiterate the AVR 7000 is a really really comfortable ambidextrous mouse it's just that these are the kind of issues you're gonna have to deal with when you're debating between purchasing an ambidextrous mouse or one that's specifically for your right or left hand so the arguments for and against ambidextrous design out of the way let's talk about the other and downs of the AV or 7000 first off its strengths one of which is it's great customization app and options the customization software for the AVR is easily some of the most user friendly and nice looking software I've ever had to use for a mouse each option is clear it's easy to find and tweak what things you want to mess with and the AVR covers all the important basis for customization you can store up to three different dpi profiles as I mentioned earlier setting them anywhere between 50 and 7,000 dpi you've also got options for scroll speed double click pointer acceleration pointer speed liftoff distance macro programming and assignment and of course that all-important option everyone loves in lit up designs color options allowing you to do any color you want in the RGB spectrum have it cycle through colors have the lights stay solid blink or pulsate and even choose to have only one of the two lights on in the first place one option I would like to see that's not present on the customization software though is being able to assign different colors to your different DPI settings you can do it in a sort of roundabout way by just assigning different main DPI settings and colors to different profiles and then just replace the DPI change buttons with profile switching but it just wasn't really nice to have a simpler option of being able to know what dpi you're using based on the color your mouse currently is now one other downside I want to bring up although honestly this is one that is a bit of a matter of personal preference is just how light the mouse is it feels really hollow on the inside and whatever kind of plastic they used just feels flimsy to me almost as if if I grip it too tight or mash on the left click too much it's going to end up shattering now obviously this hasn't actually been an issue because I'm not showing you images of a pile of scrap but it's just something out the way it feels that's bothered me since day one so overall the AV or 7000 is a solid Mouse it's got great customization options it's really comfortable for being an ambidextrous design and it's got this really good plain simple black sleek look to it if you're a dedicated gamer who's right-handed and there's going to be a lot of other options worth looking into online but if you want to be able to use both hands comfortably or if you're left-handed and you're struggling to look through what few options are out on the market then the AV or 7000 is a great option it's MSRP of 107 75 is a little on the high side for me but you can find it on a lot of websites including Amazon available as low as 70 99 9 now that was my review of the AV or 7000 from my own experiment to think that people over at square space for helping make today's video possible Squarespace is one of the fastest and
