Conclusion

The Microsoft SideWinder is like no mouse that we have ever come across. Built-in LCD, metal scroll wheels and buttons, dedicated macro button, interchangeable mouse feet packed into an outlandish design. Technically, it is very much amongst the most advanced mice available to consumers at this point.

My only personal gripe about the SideWinder is its size. It’s huge, especially when I’m used to using smaller mice. It took me more than a day to get used to the oversized rodent, although when I eventually settled down with it. Eventually, the SideWinder was comfortable for my medium sized hands.

The SideWinder is going for an MSRP of US$79.95, which is well priced for such an advanced mouse, albeit a rather large one.
