Gaming components are now at the peak of popularity. Finding a gaming mouse or keyboard is easy. Instead, new problems arise: how to choose the best from all the diversity? A pretty good model was the Bloody V7 mouse from A4Tech.
Series
A4Tech has long specialized in producing such devices. Specifically, the Bloody series has become for many the best. It includes almost 30 models that are practically not repeated externally, although they have similar features. To understand that the Bloody mouse is on the counter, just look at the section for the palm of your hand. It was here that the red logo of the family hid, which during operation is also highlighted with blood red.
In the series there are both ordinary black mice with small red elements, and bright artsy models. It’s immediately clear that all Bloody manipulators are designed to play shooters, although in reality they are suitable for all gaming projects. The mouse we are observing is the simplest and most inexpensive, although it does not cease to be an excellent “fighter” from this.
Packaging
Where does our Bloody V7 mouse begin? Of course, with the packaging. Often, for such subjective reasons, the buyer makes a choice in favor of a particular model. Someone liked a simple box, someone preferred a bright and catchy printing.
Before us is a black and red package, which received a hinged lid. Behind the door hides our "fighter". Around everything is replete and "screaming." Inside described the main advantages, screenshots from games and other technical information. In front, the Gun3 subfamily is indicated, which includes our manipulator.
Inside the box is nothing supernatural. As usual, there is a disk with software; drivers for the device are not needed. The system itself automatically finds the controller and establishes synchronization with it. For the Bloody mouse, we prepared a series of documentation with different information, there are stickers with the logo of the series and the manufacturer, teflon legs in reserve, which is especially nice, and a cloth for cleaning the device.
Appearance
This model is one of the calmest in the series. Therefore, if you do not need skulls, bright glowing lightning, neon inserts and other excesses, then the option is ideal. The case is made in black. High-quality plastic, with soft-touch surface elements. The bottom is glossy.
The mouse can hardly be called weighty, but it is not light, like many cheap Chinese counterparts. 150 grams in the hand are felt, but do not burden the work. It should be said right away that this option is suitable exclusively for right-handed people, which is immediately evident in the shape of the case.
The palm section reminds us that we have the Bloody mouse. The logo of the family flaunts here, which is highlighted in red when you connect the mouse. The sides of the device are slightly concave and ideal for the hand. On the left there is even a stand for the thumb, over which there are two more control buttons.
There is a wheel between the right and left mouse buttons, which, by the way, is also highlighted. And it can do it in different colors, depending on the mode. The wheel turns red, green or yellow. To adjust the modes, you need to press the buttons under the wheel.
There are four Teflon legs on the bottom of the manipulator. They have a fairly wide area. In the middle is a sticker with service information and a sensor eye, which is protected from dust and dirt. Its maximum resolution is 3200 dpi.
The A4Tech Bloody V7 mouse cable was also good. At the base there is a special red rubberized insert so that stretch marks or fractures do not occur here. The wire has a fabric braid with red and black elements, which complements the style of the mouse. Despite the strong and dense cable, it remains soft and does not bend anywhere.
There is a red USB connector on the back of the wire. It also has a family logo.
Options
Before us is the Bloody V7 gaming mouse, which is located in the middle price segment. Of course, for some it will seem a little expensive, but most gamers understand why such a cost.
The model has a wired interface, it only works when connected to a PC via USB. It has an optical LED sensor, a sampling frequency of 1000 Hz. The speed is only 75 inches per second. The controller has a built-in memory of 160 KB. On the case there are 7 buttons and a wheel. Theoretically, the mouse is home to 5 million clicks. Click delay is only 1 ms, which again leads us to the fact that we have a gaming mouse.
Setup and management
How to customize your Bloody V7 mouse? This is a common question after buying such a device. Not everyone knows that doing this is easy. You just need to install proprietary software. The program is simple and straightforward. It has a user-friendly interface. Unfortunately, not all available options for the user are free. So, you can configure each key a specific action, adjust the functions of the left button, control the resolution of the sensor, set the condition under which automatic scripts are activated.
In the paid mode, there are many times more opportunities. Here you can install macros that make the game easier and more comfortable. Thanks to these modes, the controller actions are fine-tuned. Such macros can be downloaded or installed from the proposed ones.
Thanks to them, you can adjust the weapon: suppress recoil. Significantly fix responsiveness and movement, soften clicks, etc.
Reviews
The Bloody V7 mouse turned out to be a good product, and it's hard to dispute. Its cost is about a thousand rubles. This is currently not enough for such a good mouse. Of course, this is not an option for professional gamers. But for beginners, it’s perfect. It has a high-resolution sensor, although users have noticed that the accuracy of the sensor is not inferior to mid-range or entry-level laser controllers.
Additional buttons are enough, although some may not be enough. Thanks to the additional keys, it will be possible to expand the functionality, and if you do not regret the money, also improve the use and capabilities.
Customers clearly praised the accuracy of the sensor. It may not be perfect, but it is suitable for picky players. There was also enough internal memory. In this case, this is not the most important parameter, but preserving the functionality of the keys in memory is also important. The manipulator is made of good durable materials. Over time, like most mice, the surface of the soft touch starts to peel off. But all this also depends on the time of use. The form was convenient for many. Although the indicator is also subjective, since someone has a larger hand, someone has a smaller hand.
As a result, significant drawbacks were never found. There were users who noted that the mouse did not work correctly on all surfaces. But for this, there are rugs.
