The G-Wolves Skoll SK-S ACE Edition is an ultra-light gaming mouse with honeycomb cutouts on the top and sides of its body, and it's one of the lightest mice we've tested. It has a right-handed shape with two buttons on its left side, and it's suitable for most hand sizes using any grip type, though people with extra-large hands may not feel comfortable with any grip type. It feels well-built, though the plastic feels a bit cheap, and it flexes when you apply pressure to the underside of the mouse. Performance-wise, it has a wide CPI range with a CPI that you can adjust in increments of 50. Also, it has a very low lift-off distance and low click latency, though some gamers may prefer a more responsive-feeling option. It comes with TTC Pink switches if you want to replace the L/R click buttons' stock Omron 50M switches; however, the switches aren't hot-swappable, so you need to solder them in yourself.
Our Verdict

You can remap all of its buttons using the dedicated software, and all of its default buttons work on Windows and macOS.

The G-Wolves Skoll SK-S ACE Edition is inadequate for travel since it's a wired mouse, so its cable might get in the way if used in small spaces like planes, trains, or buses. Also, it's a bit bulky and may not easily fit into a laptop case. On the bright side, it has onboard memory, so you can keep your settings when using a computer that doesn't have the customization software installed.
