Packaging, Weight, Cable and Feet

Packaging

The A900 comes in a nice little box made of solid plastic. The mouse itself sits in a plastic tray, along with a software mini-CD and a quick start guide.

Weight

The A900 has a rudimentary weight system. There's a 6 g weight included which magnetically clips to the bottom of the mouse. With the 6 g weight installed, my scale shows around 106 g (+/- 1 g) with a bit of cable. Without the 6 g weight, the mouse ends up at 100 g (+/- 1 g). These values are in line with the specifications indicated by Abkoncore. Considering the size of the A900, 100 g is quite heavy, and partly because of the magnets necessary to hold the 6 g weight, most of the weight is located at the back of the mouse. Personally, I don't really see the point of having a weight system that allows one to only add a 6 g weight, which barely makes a difference.

Cable

The A900 features a standard rubber cable. Flexibility is below average, but it's still usable (mouse bungee is recommended). The length is 1.80 m (measured). The cable has a ferrite bead attached to it, which helps reduce noise, as well as a gold-plated USB connector.

Feet

The feet on the A900 are standard black-dyed PTFE (Teflon) feet with slightly rounded edges. These may look regular, but are of fairly high quality and glide very well. It's also nice that there are small indentations below each foot to make them easier to remove.
