The cable’s decent quality, the mouse performs perfectly well in competitive and casual environments, and so far the fan hasn’t conked out on me. And at the end of the day, the Zephyr Pro is pretty inexpensive for what it offers. (It’s software is several circles of hell uglier, but it does work well, and you are saving money at the end of the day.)īut none of those mice have a fan. And if size isn’t the issue, but money is, there’s the ever-reliable Logitech G203, or the actual Intellimouse Pro, the Rival 3, or the excellent MM710 from Cooler Master, which has the same sensor as the Zephyr Pro. The Pwnage Ultra Custom Wireless Symmetrical 2 is more expensive at $129, but it’s also modular. There’s the wireless Model D for those who prefer more of an ergonomic design, or the wired version for $79 locally. That’s not to say there isn’t competition, though. The Zephyr Pro doesn’t sit as high in the hand (or palm) as either of those options, but if your hands are on the larger side, you’re more likely to be comfortable with this than many of the ultra-lightweight mice on the market. But it’s a pretty lightweight for a mouse of this size, which is more in line with Microsoft’s original Intellimouse 3.0 or the Razer Deathadder.

So what the fan actually does is give the sensation that the palm rest is slightly cool, which is a lot nicer than some of the matte surfaces I’ve used on other mice that wear off after a couple of months. That’s nice when the mercury gets close to 40 degrees, as is looking increasingly likely in the coming weeks. The mouse already has holes in it - sorry, trypophobia sufferers.īut you’ve already got a bit more airflow than a regular mouse chassis. It is a soft, gentle, almost barely noticeable amount of wind. We’re not talking Dyson-levels of suction here. The coolest element, and the most obvious drawback, of the Marsback Zephyr Pro is the miniscule little RGB device that has all the power of those USB-powered fans you bought from Catch of the Day when it first launched. So to stand out, new companies have to think of something different.
