ROCCAT Leadr Wireless Multi-Button RGB Gaming Mouse Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2017-07-06

While the multitude of button placement may discourage some mainstream users but also entry-level gamers and would state they will never use these or are somewhat hard accessible, this is not the case! ROCCAT made sure that the button placement is optimal and we have had absolutely no problems accessing the ones placed on the left panel with games such as Kritika Online or Black Deset Online. The sets of buttons on the left and right side of the usual left/right click buttons need some time to get used to, while the Easy-Shift[+] function button can be accessed very conveniently.

Packaging, A Closer Look Part I

ROCCAT, the well-known gaming peripheral company is continuously innovating in order to keep itself in the top positions versus the already heavy competition. One of their latest flagship products is the Leadr Wireless Multi-Button RGB Gaming Mouse which is meant to bring to the enthusiasts zero-lag operation with no wires involved, while the wireless base does also act as a charging station.

 

The product is shipped inside a medium-sized cardboard box for a gaming mouse, which does have on the top area a presentation of the main highlights: the intelligent charging dock, zero LAG, the fact that it is using a 12K DPI ROCCAT Owl-Eye optical sensor, but we can also see a photo of the Leadr while operating:

 

 

 

As we have seen before with other models, the right side does highlight a large ROCCAT logo:

 

 

 

On the left side though, we do have an in-depth explanation of the features, including some extras such as the Next-Gen Button layout:

 

 

 

The full list of product features is however available on the back side of the box; here the manufacturer has this list translated in many other languages:

 

 

 

The bottom area though comes with the list of package contents, system requirements but also the tech specs:

 

 

 

After removing the bottom box seals, we have removed the inner layer, which was made from a custom black/transparent plastic mold:

 

 

 

Under this layer, we could find an extra foam protective layer, which did include the documentation, along with the product bundle:

 

 

 

Besides the Quick-Installation Guide, ROCCAT has also included a Disposal Information leaflet, along with a nice set of stickers:
