After about six months with the Xlite V3 Medium, their first proper gaming mouse, they had no QC issues. It's solid with almost no creak, has minimal button travel, a crisp, well-stepped scroll wheel and a nice matte coating. The palm-grip shape is comfortable, though the bottom-left edge presses into their palm a little.

“The Xlite V3 is very stable and well built despite its weight (55g for medium size) and open bottom design”

Their Xlite V3 Medium feels unstable, with a left-right wobble, while the Xlite V3 Mini they had before was perfectly fine.

“I have a Problem with my Xlite V3 Medium. It feels unstable.”

Their Xlite V3 Medium has the same left-right wobble shown in reviews. They didn't notice it at first, but it annoys them more the longer they use it.

“I have the Xlite V3 Medium and it has the same left-right wobble as shown in that video.”

Owns both the Xlite V3 Medium and the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed with no issues on either. The Xlite is very solid, though the DeathAdder's build is slightly better, and with 17.5cm hands they prefer the HyperSpeed's size.

“I have 17.5cm hands and prefer the hyperspeed over xlite medium.”

Their Xlite V3 Medium, used for a good while, is starting to die. They found its clicks a bit louder than expected but got used to them.

“I’ve had a Pulsar Xlite V3 Medium for a good while and it seems to be dying out on me”

Using it 7–10 hours a day, their Xlite V3 Medium's battery started failing after just over a year and now lasts no more than two days per charge.

“My Xlite v3 battery is failing after just over a year of use. I use it 7-10hrs a day, and it can no longer last more than 2 days.”

Compared with their Zowie EC2, their Xlite V3 Medium gives them more freedom of movement.

“I have a V3 medium and compared to my EC2 I get more freedom using that.”

Mostly enjoying it, but the base scrapes the pad when lifting, which may be a deal breaker.

“I'm mostly enjoying the mouse but I'm having one specific problem that might end up being a deal breaker.”
