    Good to see new videos from you but I was never a fan of unboxing videos they just feel like a waist of time.

    It's my personal opinion/recommendation that you just take the first 30 seconds of the final review to show what comes in the box and that is really all people need to know.

    LOL! Sorry for my broken English :) I try to deliver that this mouse is an optical mouse and not a laser mouse :-D

    Thanks! It has being quite some time I didn't unbox/ review accessories. I will take your suggestion into consideration. Thanks! :)

    To each his own, but I prefer optical mice. In my experience, they are more forgiving of different types of mousepad surface, while lasers tend to be more picky and favor hard pads over soft mats. Also, optical sensors (at least based on the one study I've seen) have higher perfect control speeds.

    The only thing lasers do better is raw DPI, which is all but irrelevant at this point; the higher-end optical mice have 3,500 or 3,600 DPI, which is more than enough for just about anyone.

    Good unboxing and overview.

    I enjoy the unboxing videos as it gives a good overview/first impressions.

    I'll be curious to see what you think as I currently use teh G700 and although I love it I'm always looking out for what's new.
