Bloody W95BR Max Extra Fire Gaming Mouse - 12,000 CPI, BC3332-A Sensor, 2000 Hz Report Rate, 4M Onboard Memory, RGB Backlit, Adjustable LOD, Precision Control, Ergonomic Design

This is the Bloody W-95-BR Max Extra Fire Gaming Mouse. It was priced at $50 when ordered and arrived quickly. Let me start by saying, this isn't your ordinary mouse. This in reality, is a macro board posing as a mouse. As a standalone mouse with standard software (core 1) this unit has issues. Simple things like getting the RGB, key mappings and dpi adjustments to function normal just didn't seem possible. I could change the dpi in windows, but not in games. I could remap keys in software, but they would not register in game as mapped (specifically the clutch and double click key, the rest seemed to work). The RGB profiles wouldn't transfer to the mouse and I was stuck with rainbow or off.Basic software aside (more on the advanced software later) the construction of the mouse felt good. I would put the quality above the g502, but below the Basilisk. The brading on the mouse cable is the loose snag free design which is a nice touch. The bottom sliders felt low drag and smooth. The plastic quality is good, but not that almost metal or soft touch plastic material quality. The wheels felt good and the left/right clickers had a heavy spring feel. The shape is taller at the arch of the hand than the Basilisk and felt closer to the g502. The front of the mouse also slims a bit causing the hand to arch even more. I prefer the feel of a slightly flater mouse, this one promotes more claw grip than I like, but the comfort was alright for the most part.The most noticeable characteristic of this mouse when first using it is the immense weight. This is the heaviest mouse I have ever used. I thought the basilisk was a heavy mouse, the 95 makes it look like a light weight in comparison. In the age of super light mice, this is a trend bucker for sure.In use, you feel the weight of this mouse. Due to the significant mass, the 95 is harder to accelerate and decelerate, making response feel slower than I expected. When testing back to back with the basilisk I noticed the 2,800dpi on the razer felt similar to 4,200dpi on the bloody. I'm not sure if it was the weight or sensor, but consistently I needed a 50% higher dpi with the bloody to simulate the response of the basilisk. Button feel and placement felt similar, but the 5 way mouse of the basilisk/502 was a sorely missed feature. The extra mouse wheel and double click button make you think you are getting more, but in reality it's the same number of input switches, but harder to use.This unit claims to have 2,000 hertz polling with 12,000dpi performance and 1ms click response times. Well, its hard to say if any of it is true or not, but in Aim Trainer I consistently scored lower with the W95BR than either the G502 or Basilisk despite the Bloodys superior stats on paper. I'm not sure the nice way to say it, it just doesn't feel good to use.So why do people like this mouse so much? It is the advanced software suite found with the Core 3 and Core 4 software. This software suite allows you to fully program both keyboard and mouse movement macros into the mouse. Without going into detail, you can do alot of things that may be frowned upon by the community using this software. The software is very complex and will require a learning curve. Instructions can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website from inside the software suite.In conclusion, if you are looking for a nice mouse to do regular mouse stuff with, that is easy to use and live with… this is not it.If you are looking for the world's heaviest mouse that has insane programmable macro abilities and doubles as a bad usb, well… they made this mouse for you.

Software must be downloaded separately from the 'Bloody' website; plug-and-play provides only extremely basic functionality. The website does not seem to list the W95BR mouse, but the software for the W95 Max seems to work just fine.The software is extremely unintuitive, with talk about multiple Cores that have to be paid to unlock(this mouse seems to come with the paid Cores already unlocked?), lots of poorly labeled tabs, various options that have no description or poorly translated descriptions.After a few hours I did eventually get everything figured out, and found that this mouse supports a very robust macro system, and allows full customization for all the button functions, lots of options for the pretty lights inside the Mouse, and a wide range of sensitivity choices.I was a bit concerned that the thumb-trigger button would get in the way and be pressed by accident, but it actually sits exactly at the tip of my thumb where it is easily accessible when I need it, out of the way when I don't. Similarly the extra button on the right side of the left-click button is conveniently oriented so that I can press it easily when I need some extra functionality. And I appreciate that the extra wheel can be used to adjust CPI up and down without cycling around, so that I can precisely reach the desired mouse speed when I need to change it in the middle of a game.After getting past that initial rough patch, this really is an excellent Mouse for gaming and general use.

This has been a good addition to my gaming setup. Here's what I like:The app allows you to tweak the buttons and lighting. The mouse is lightweight. Buttons have good feel and the RGB lighting is nice. You need to download the software to get the most options out of it. I prefer the look of other devices where the top of the mouse really shows off the lighting. However, the effect at the bottom of the mouse is different. I will say this isn't the most precise gaming mouse, but it is darn close. I've used it on Fortnite and I feel like it is above average accuracy. The buttons have a nice feel to them. Again, the software allows you to customize the buttons to make it even better. The DPI options are also pretty good. The "cloth" feeling cable is very nice and feels sturdy. I've used some pretty cheap devices, and for the price, I think this one is a steal.

Overall, a great mouse with many more pros than cons, but the documentation/instructions could use some work.PROS:AffordableLightResponsiveLong Braided cable that is very flexible (might be too thin so keep an eye out on it for wear)RGB is controllable on the mouse or through softwareDriverless or add more control through software (if you can find out where to download it -- see cons)Feels good in the handLoads of buttonsCompany and product has a web presence -- https://bloodyusa.ecwid.com/CONS:No instructions or guidebook to let you know what the various buttons doCouldn't find a link to their "Bloody Software" mentioned software on the product pageCouldn't figure out how to change the mouse DPI (cursor speeds) through the buttonsGiving this 4 stars for the little things. These details make a great experience and product into a stupendous one.

Solid construction, I can squeeze my razer basilisk V2 and it creaks a little, the W95BR doesn't make a peep. It's very close in terms of competing with the Razer Basilisk and Logitech G502, almost exactly the same size as either of those, might be just slightly heavier. I like that it's pads on the bottom are a coated metal, it slides just a little easier than mice with plastic pads on normal fabric mouse pads.Button customization with the software is easy to use and it's cpu/memory footprint is small. The mouse saves all settings so you can just configure it, apply and it saves to onboard memory, shut down the background software. A big caveat with the Razer Basilisk is it won't save color changes to the onboard memory, it will only show custom color configurations if the Razer software is running, and the Razer software is a bloated hog, it causes noticeable stuttering in games so I had to shut it down and just live with the mouse having no custom lighting.Lift off distance setting on the bottom of the mouse along with usb polling rate setting is a nice touch. You have to use software to set the razer and the G502 doesn't let you change it's lift off distance, that's why I can't use it, it's set too low and if I slightly tilt the g502 forward from pressing the buttons hard it stops tracking.I'd say the only thing missing from the W95BR is a free scroll wheel setting, that's becoming a popular option on high end mice and it's very useful when you start to get old and your tendons hurt if you scroll without free scroll on. Also, some games refuse to use windows scroll rate setting and default to a very low one, the free scroll is a must for those. Even if the scroll wheel was just very light in it's feedback and had enough give so if you flicked it, it would spin freely for just a fraction of a second it would be good enough. They could get around adding a scroll unlock if they calibrated that right.Other than that one caveat it's just as good as a G502 or Basilisk V2. The added button on the inside of the left click button that double clicks should be standard on all gaming mice, it's very handy.
