AULA Ghost Shark PC Mouse, PC/Mac, 2 Ways

A friend of mine purchased this mouse a few months ago and was raving about how comfortable it was and how effective it was for gaming (we play League of Legends). I ended up trying it at his house and fell in love with it. It is hard to get used to if you haven't ever used gaming or ergo mice before, like me, but once you do it is extremely rewarding. This mouse has the most comfortable grip I have ever experienced, rivaling that of Razer mice. The only downfall to this mouse is that it is a chinese mouse, and so the software that comes on the disc included does not work well, if at all. After several days of being without the driver (which causes noticeable problems if not installed), I decided to venture to their website [...] The website is in Chinese, and it is almost exclusively html, so google cannot translate it. It is worth mentioning that before you download the driver software from the website, you should download a free version of winrar because it is a .zip file. On the website, you will see several tabs up at the top, all with different words that are written in Chinese. It took me several tries, but I managed to figure out that the first tab is a link to a page that has a list of all of their mice that they sell. Scroll down to the Ghost Shark mouse and you will see a text box with two chinese phrases at the bottom, one with a download arrow. Click the download arrow and it will download the zipped file. Next, all you have to do is navigate through the winrar page and open the files, then click the setup.exe. It should start the download, and you will be able to fully enjoy the programmable buttons and be able to get the fabled stagnate color. Another tip is to change the double click button to the actual double click setting, as it is default set on rapid fire for some reason. After installing the driver for it, this mouse is really without flaws. It is extremely comfortable and easy to program. The colors are a nice touch, and it can easily compete with any of the Razer mice or even Logitech to some degree. I would reccomend this mouse to anyone who is into gaming, or even to someone who is on their computer a lot and is looking for a nice, comfortable, high performance mouse that you can get for a steal.

Pros: Feels great in a medium to large sized hand. Nice rubberized grip and buttons have nice tactile feedback. LED's are nice to look at and mouse looks better than it does on the pictures of it.Cons: The driver software stops working after 3 hours of using my computer. Usually have to restart my computer to make it work again. This product is also a copy of many other products, but with a different name on it. If I had the choice to get this product again, I probably would spend $10-15 more to get a more well known product.

Cheap but functional device. The dpi settings and all the mouse buttons functions as advertised. However, after a couple hours my wrist hurts. This device is not ergonomically in fact this was the first mouse to cause pain. I wouldn't recommend this mouse.

This mouse is very cool, it is easy to use and the color changing feature is awesome.This mouse does, however, have its fair share of cons. While the manufacturer specifies that the mouse is intended for windows operating systems, I purchased the mouse for use with a macbook air, as I read that mice made for windows could be used on macs, but only basic features would work.The mouse comes from a Chinese company and the company's website, while hard to find, is all in Chinese (Mandarin I believe) and so are both the packaging and the instructions. The mouse comes with a disc to install the driver, but it's one of those small discs like the ones that came as prizes in cereal boxes in the '90s. Because of the size, I couldn't use the disc with my computer (I use an external USB disc drive because macbook airs do not have disc drives), and have no way to install the driver. (FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH THE TERM DRIVER: driver software is the software you install on your computer for the mouse so that its additional functions work with your computer.)I assume that if I could use the driver disc then the mouse would work 100 percent properly, but without the software, some of the mouse features do not work. For example, the forward and back buttons do not work with my computer, but this is not a problem for me as I don't use them anyway. The mouse just cycles through each of the colors over and over again, like a fiber optic light. The button below the scroll wheel I believe is for putting the mouse to one solid color, but as I have not installed the driver software, the button just causes the mouse to blink red, blue, or green, and then go back to the regular color cycle. The button to the left of the left mouse button does a double-click, which is nice.The biggest problem I have with this mouse is the scroll wheel. Since the driver software is not installed, the scroll wheel is inverted. That is to say that when you scroll, the screen moves the opposite way of the way that you want it to go. I was able to fix this by changing my computer's settings, but I wanted to be able to switch between the trackpad on my computer and this mouse regularly, which is impractical because the settings can't be set to accommodate both. Every time I switch, I have to change the settings, or just deal with one of them being different.It is wider and longer than most other mice, which I like because I have big hands, but it is not very tall, so it can be hard on your wrists and joints if you have larger than average hands. If you can get around the problems I have described or you have a desktop, you should buy this mouse, it is well worth the money.With all of that being said, I think this mouse is great for anyone who has a desktop. It works really well for pointing and clicking, and the color change feature makes it a great mouse, especially for the price.
