Final Verdict
The Kingston HyperX Pulsefire FPS gaming mouse retails for about $50 (Amazon) at the time of the this review. Since input device reviews are subjective, we always encourage you to try before you buy. The fit and finish of the Pulsefire is good. It is plastic and rubber, but the grip feels good in the hand. Tracking was spot on on the majority of surfaces, but don't expect this to work on transparent materials, which is normal. On a desk or a mouse pad, you'll have no issues. The mouse is optical and we'd be hard pressed to see any difference between that and a laser type. The Pulsefire comes with four DPI levels and requires no software to use.
The mouse is on the lightweight side of things. As stated in the video review, if you like a heftier mouse, look elsewhere. However, the lightweight allows the Pulsefire to glides effortlessly across most surfaces. This is a gaming mouse, but we expect most people to use this as their primary and only mouse. For gaming and productivity, it works well. Once you get over the learning curve of any new input device, it isn't noticeable. That's what you want in an input device, you don't want to notice it. The Pulsefire FPS is a good mouse for a first released product from HyperX. We'll be interested in seeing what the higher end products look like in the future. If you're looking for a lightweight mid-range gaming mouse, the Pulsefire FPS may fit the bill, nicely.
ASE Publishing would like to thank HyperX for making this review possible.
