Saitek Obsidian Wireless Mouse Review

July 23rd 2007 | Peripherals

Most people are familiar with Saitek. This company is well known for making popular peripherals ranging from keyboards to joysticks (as well as some audio and novelty products). The Saitek Obsidian is a rechargeable wireless mouse that you can buy for about fifty bucks.

..The Saitek Obsidian wireless mouse just didn’t live up to it’s own billing. When I saw the feature set and attractive design, I immediately had high hopes for the performance. To be sure, there are some really nice features (like the two batteries and portable USB dongle), but these don’t make up for the problems with the scroll area. I like the idea of going to this sort of touch-sensitive sytem, since it cuts down on moving parts, but it definitely needs some refinement. In other words, if you are simply in love with Saitek or want this mouse just for its looks, then go for it. Most people, I think, could find a better product for the money.
