BenQ ZOWIE EC1-B Mouse for e-Sports

The mouse is super responsive and I hit head shots like a savage.
Updated 3360 sensor performs super flawlessly.
It's comfortable, it tracks great, it does everything you need a mouse to do very well.
Left and right buttons have too much travel for my taste.
The clicks are not precise and are hard to be accurate with.

BenQ ZOWIE EC2-B Gaming Mouse

EC-2B using perfect sensor for FPS games. Super accurate and smooth.
Sensors great as usual from Zowie. Great side buttons not prone to accidental clicks.
The dpi increments are 400,800, 1600 and 3200 dpi which is perfect for any gaming style.
The main buttons have a nice crisp click as does the scroll wheel.
Side buttons are extremely 'mushy' and have a long travel distance before actuation.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

BenQ ZOWIE EC1-B Mouse for e-Sports

Simple small design, fits very well in the hand.
Quite possibly the best shape and size in the ergonomic mouse game.
Super lightweight mice. Yes, there are more lighter mices, but I don't think it's needed.
Easily the lightest large mouse around, which is greatly appreciated by someone who has large hands.
I have big hands and I need a big mice to be comfortable. This is pretty long mouse, but super light.

BenQ ZOWIE EC2-B Gaming Mouse

Subtle ergonomic shape, suitable for both claw and palm grip. Also super light.
Very light mouse for it's size. Not the lightest, but it's enough for MLG flicks.
Good small mice for big hands .My hands are 20cm long and 11 cm width and I feel very comfortable.
This suits my style as it is light at around 93g so suited to long sweeps and lifting.
I find this slightly smaller size suits my claw grip better.

What customers say about "Connection"

BenQ ZOWIE EC1-B Mouse for e-Sports

Soft cable doesn't affect mouse movement and that's super.
Not having a braided cable is also a huge plus because it tends to add resistance if it rubs against something.
Very light cable and you almost don't feel it when playing.
The rubber cable is also a game changer just because I would feel the weight of heavy braided cable.
Non braided short cable feels very flimsy and unstable.

BenQ ZOWIE EC2-B Gaming Mouse

Good cable. Non braided, quite flexible, and slides well.
Suprisingly the plastic cable is far superior to braided ones, easier to bend and doesnt get caught as easy.
You might think the plastic cable is bad as its not braided but braided cables create drag, when plastic is super light and flexible.
The cable has a nice soft rubber coating which is more flexible than many of the braided cables I've used before.
Flexible, not braided cable. Comes with spare mouse feet.

What customers say about "Features"

BenQ ZOWIE EC1-B Mouse for e-Sports

I liked the driverless nature of this mouse, when you need just plug the mouse.
It was easy to pre-select a specific DPI and polling rate if a game required it.
I love the simple black design of the mice, as I don't need this RGB or futuristic looking design.
I have sweaty hands when I play, and this mouse not only turns slippery, but also builds up grime much faster.
The only real downsides are the coating of the mouse that becomes greasy very easily.

BenQ ZOWIE EC2-B Gaming Mouse

The mouse's skates are large and last forever. Zowie even include a set of replacement skates in the box.
No software is needed, which is ideal for LAN environments.
The plastic used feels neither particularly premium nor cheap, but it's fairly enough for good feel.
This mouse is very simple, you plug it in and it works, no software, it's just a good reliable simple mouse.
Picks up residue such as sweat rather easily and visibly, turning the matte black finish slightly glossy.
