It is quite hard to believe that is has been over two years
since we last took a look at any mice that are on the market! The most recent
one is the Logitech G9 review, which our Editor-in-Chief Jonathan Kwan have
written about way back in November of 2007. After two long years, we are back
with a brand new computer mouse review, presented by yours truly. "A star has
been born" is a prominently advertised slogan on Mionix's product page -- and
that 'star', unsurprisingly, happens to be the Mionix Naos; as this product
is named after a star of the same name. The star Naos is said to spin a
hundred times faster than the Sun, alluding to the speed factor of this mouse
under the same name. The numeric '5000' designation at the end of the
product's name represents the 5040 dpi sensor, and like all marketing
tactics, they took the round number in order to make it easier to remember as
well as sounding better at the same time. With all the large scale references
to planets, Mionix even goes deep into looking for perfection with this
mouse. Many companies advertise excellence, but as experienced users would
know, perfection is quite hard to come by these days. Our Arctic Cooling
Arctic Sound E352 review written last week is a good example (Actually, it is
quite the opposite of perfection, haha). To be honest, I have not heard of
Mionix before this review, but word on the street is that they are an
excellent gaming peripherals manufacturer. Their marketing direction is also
very similar to established, well known gaming companies, and this bodes well
for this Mionix as well. So, without further delay, let's get straight into
today's review and see how close to 'perfection' the Mionix Naos 5000
reaches.
