The build quality is at a good level, plastic parts are strong and well finished. Of course design is a
subjective matter, but we really like when the manufacturer provides different products with a very similar design. The blue LEDs positioned on the body of the mouse are a great addition and the LED on
the wheel are fully customizable via software. The USB cable as well as the connector are of excellent quality. In this case, you get a sleeved cable and gold-plated plug. |

The Avago ADNS-9800 is a very good laser sensor
with the maximum resolution of 8200 DPI, which is enough for any kind of gamer. Furthermore, we
liked the glide pads as they are made from Teflon and well positioned. Gandiva H1L
is very comfortable from the first contact and well balanced thanks to its light weight. Almost all the buttons seem well-positioned,
at least to us, and only those close to the wheel may be uncomfortable.
Of course, the mouse has been designed for right-handed users. |

After installing the software
we found it to be well structured and easy to use. We liked the possibility to import and export profiles, which is very useful in case of backup or sharing with friends. One note about the lack of integration with other Tesoro software: each device creates its own icon in the tray bar, so if you have a mouse and keyboard you will have two icons displayed. In the end we would love to see two things changed: first of all, there is the software integration and the second thing concerns the fact, that apart from the software, you just do
not get a hint which DPI setting you are currently using when the software is in the tray icon. |

- Easy to use

- Not integrated with other products from Tesoro |

The price of the Gandiva is about 60 euro. In terms of value, it is certainly a good product but we think that the price is still
a bit too high. |
