CM Storm gets a lot of things right with the Mizar. Ergonomics are definitely above average, and the rubber side panels are a great idea. The Mizar comes with a driver suite that, after you get to know it, can do everything you would want it to. In terms of tracking performance, the mouse is on-par with other Avago ADNS-9800-based mice, which is as expected. The way the sensor has been placed, though, poses a small problem in terms of ultimate precision, but such also depends on the way you like to hold a mouse and how you move the mouse. CM Storm still has some way to go before it catches up to the high-end Mionix and Feenix mice when it comes to its buttons. At $59, it is not exactly cheap, and while it is a good mouse, it is not truly great as it just lacks a little finesse!
