This is mouse is perfect, except for three minor flaws.
- The first flaw, which calling it a flaw might not even be suitable, is the scroll wheel bumps. The scrolling is very smooth and un-tactile compared to the mm710, g305, gpro wireless, or model O. The encoder(13mm black TTC) has very little tactility. I have, on my second Mira-S replaced the scroll encoder(13mm btw) with a green encoder from TTC, which is more tactile and stiff, which I've found to be a significant improvement to the original.
- The second flaw is the unusual scroll wheel wobble and noise. This has happened to both my Mira-S mice. The issue is that the scroll wheel has a lot of room to move side-to-side in the mouse enclosure, specifically between the two fork shaped bits of plastic which hold the scroll wheel in position. I fixed this issue by slightly bending the plastic closer towards each other, but this should not be done by beginners, as it could result in the piece of plastic snapping. With the wobbling fixed, the noise is also fixed, but this modification results in a stiffer middle-mouse-button(the stock middle-mouse-button was already on the stiff side).
- The third flaw is the weight (61 grams without the cable), with more and more sub-60-gram mice coming into the market, the Mira-S will surely face many competitors in the not so distant future. Mice like G-Wolves Hati S mini exist, which weigh significantly less (advertised at 48 grams), and the MM710 (at 53 grams). Although with its 61 grams of "heft", this mouse glides fast and smooth on the mousepad, and feels much more solid than some of its competitors.
I would definitely recommend you to buy this mouse. This mouse could have been an endgame for many people if it had better scroll wheel QC and was lighter by ten grams. The rest of the build quality is immaculate and excellent, well worth the price. I am excited to see how HK Gaming will grow in the future. Hopefully a Mira S 2 with all the issues addressed above fixed.
