Introduction

A few months ago, we were approached by Dream Machines to see if we would like to take a look at their DM1 PRO mouse. We did a review on it here. It was an excellent mouse and took our Editor's Choice award. One thing I mentioned during that review was that it would be nice to see it with the Pixart PMW 3360 sensor. Fast forward a few months and we now have the DM 1 PRO S. Very similar to the original DM1 PRO, it actually uses the PMW 3360 sensor, and this time around, I took the glossy version to see what it is like.

Specifications

Packaging

The packaging for the DM1 PRO S has changed significantly over that of the previous model; it is even more simplistic and is now just a box and cover rather than one with a display. I think I would have preferred the old make up as this seems a little too simple to me. Having said that, the mouse did arrived in very good condition, so the packaging does protect the hardware like it should.


On the rear of the box, we have the specifications in both English and Polish. One particular mention should go out to the weight of this mouse. A little lighter, which I know die hard CS:GO players will love, it now weighs 85 g rather than 90 g.


Inside the box, we have the mouse, some extra skates, and an instruction leaflet. It is nice to see that the instruction leaflet has been translated into English as the previous DM1 PRO only had Polish instructions included, which is already a small improvement!
