The Pwnage Ultra Custom Wireless Ergo is an excellent wireless gaming mouse. It includes a collection of modular parts to customize the look and feel of the mouse, and despite these removable parts, it feels very sturdy. You can connect it with its flexible paracord-like cable or wirelessly with its USB receiver. It also has a compartment for this receiver on the underside when it's not needed. Performance-wise, it has a wide CPI range, a very low lift-off distance, and an impressively low click latency. Unfortunately, the customization software is only compatible with Windows, and you can only adjust the CPI by increments of 100.

Cons
  • CPI is only adjustable by increments of 100.

    ROCCAT Kain 100 AIMO

    Track

    The Pwnage Ultra Custom Wireless Ergo is an excellent ultra-light wireless mouse, while the ROCCAT Kain 100 AIMO is a great wired gaming mouse. The Pwnage weighs less thanks to its honeycomb cutout pattern, and it has a more flexible cable and smoother-gliding mouse feet. Also, it comes with alternative palm and L/R click covers to change the look and feel of the mouse, and you can use it wirelessly via a USB receiver. Performance-wise, it has a wider CPI range, a lower lift-off distance, and lower click latency. On the other hand, the ROCCAT has more programmable buttons thanks to its Easy-Shift[+] feature.

    EQEOVGA D10 RGB

    Track

    The Pwnage Ultra Custom Wireless Ergo and the EQEOVGA D10 RGB are excellent lightweight gaming mice, but the Pwnage is more versatile and has better performance. The Pwnage connects either with its charging cable or wirelessly with its USB receiver. It feels sturdier and has modular pieces that change the look and feel of the mouse. It also has better quality feet, a wider CPI range, and a lower lift-off distance. Comparatively, the EQEOVGA is a wired-only model without any wireless connection options. Both mice are suitable for all grip types and most hand sizes. However, neither is suitable for smaller hands using a claw or fingertip grip.
