tt esports ventusxb

     The original Ventus laser gaming mouse was a balanced ambidextrous model with good overall performance thanks to its air-through body, the ADNS-9500 sensor by Avago and its primary switches by OMRON. The ambidextrous design however gave it a smaller body than what most gamers wanted and not the best possible shape. The Ventus X improves on that and although it’s not ambidextrous as its predecessor still it’s larger, has a much better shape (ergonomic) and not only features a matte textured coating but also rubber pads on both sides for better handling/grip. Both the laser sensor and the weight system remain identical with those used in the Ventus but thanks to the larger base (and PTFE feet) you should expect even better accuracy. The control panel is not really that much better compared to the one used in the Ventus but it’s a step up and so it’s easier to navigate. Unfortunately another feature which has remained the same is the single LED color and although as mentioned earlier I happen to like the black/red color combination others may want more.


   The Ventus X already counts several months in the market but that has only made things better since currently it retails for just USD49.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 46Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk). The Ventus X is of course not alone in that price range but it’s certainly one of the best “contestants” not only because of its air-through design, available buttons, weight adjustable system and laser sensor used but also because of its size, grip and OMRON primary switches which is why it gets our Golden Award.
