The EpicGear Gekkota is
definitely a pleasant surprise. The mouse uses the same body and the same button layout that we had found on the AnurA, a model with dual sensor. Like on the previous model, the rubber surface ensures a firm grip even for long gaming sessions and its symmetrical shape makes it perfect for also left handers. The sensor used is a PixArt ADNS-9800 with 8200 DPI combined with a good software easy and simple to set up. |

Choosing the right gaming mouse is always a very
complicated task, since each sensor has its own advantages and
disadvantages. With the Gekkota, EpicGear offers a laser solution based on a PixArt ADNS-9800 which is able to reach 8200dpi. The glide
pads -
or mouse feet - are made from teflon and ensure excellent stability thanks also to the rough external profile that helps
with the smoothness on the surface. Ergonomically the mouse is very comfortable from the first contact, thanks to the softtouch cover on the top.
This model can also be used by left-handed gamer. The Gekkota is a gaming mouse that can be used by those who prefer the claw and tip grip. |

Recommendation / Price |

Checking on Geizhals.eu,
the EpicGear Gekkota starts from 80 Euro excluding shipping costs. Despite the good amount of quality on this mouse like the ADNS-9800 laser sensor and the switches from Omron, we think that price is a bit on the steep
side. |
