The SteelSeries Rival 710 stands out as a notable product from TechBrief 2018. While my personal gaming experience may not heavily involve online multiplayer titles like Counterstrike, I have extensive experience using mice and keyboards for various applications, including transitioning from PC to console gaming. This background provides a unique perspective for evaluating the merits of a dedicated gaming mouse.
Vibrations provide alerts, such as indicating when a reload is necessary.My professional work, outside of writing for senses.se, involves film editing and special effects. I spend considerable time in Adobe Premiere (an editing program), Photoshop (image processing program), and After Effects (a special effects program). These applications demand accurate tracking, precision, and stability – qualities equally crucial in gaming.
While I may not utilize all of the mouse’s gaming-specific features, such as the reload vibration alert, other functions prove highly beneficial. The ability to quickly program and adjust sensitivity settings (tested on Mac) allows for efficient fine-tuning during editing workflows, streamlining adjustments without navigating complex menus.

The customizable OLED display allows for personalized texts and logos, even GIF animations.
The Rival 710 fits comfortably in my larger hands, and its build quality instills confidence. The surface has a professional feel, and the buttons are easily accessible. A comprehensive software suite, available as a free download, enables users to program the numerous buttons to their desired functions. The wired connection ensures zero input lag, providing responsive and accurate cursor control.
In conclusion, the Rival 710 is the best mouse I have used to date, enhancing my editing workflow. I anticipate its performance would be equally impressive in gaming scenarios, although macOS limitations restrict such testing. The price point is a consideration, but the Rival 710 delivers exceptional value and is a worthwhile investment for users seeking a high-quality mouse.
