How accurate is the scroll wheel? For ex. I play Garrys Mod and use scroll wheel to jump, is it accurate for jumping and doesnt glitch?

considering it has 3 settings that you can switch between on the fly and customize with the software and the sniper button, which is also customizable you shoulnt have ANY problems

If by accurate you mean "responds to being clicked", I've never had problems. I click, and the action happens. It takes a little bit more force to click than many other mice, though, so it may get annoying if you need the wheel to be easy to press. As for scrolling, there's a tactile little "tick" while scrolling. I.E. it feels bumpy when scrolling, much like many other mice.

Hi, I didn't know the answer until you asked the question. LOL. So I tried it on a Word doc. The answer: it scrolled both left and right, as well. That's not really a motion in my repertoire, since I tend to use the zoom (cntrl + mouse wheel) for navigation. But now that I know, thanks to your question, I'll add that capability to my arsenal. Hope this helps.

The scroll wheel does have left/right functionality. By default it's "scroll left" and "scroll right" (forward/back are mapped the the buttons by your thumb by default), but you can program them to do whatever you want.

I haven't. The only issue I have experienced with this mouse is horizontal scrolling using the mouse wheel. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I haven't been able to figure out why. Vertical scrolling has always worked for me.

Do you mean on-screen smoothness? I find it smooth, but unfortunately it has excessive drift after acceleration. This could just be a problem with mine, but it's pretty annoying on a larger screen. This is well beyond the 'standard' trackpoint drift that corrects itself quicky.

Yes, the wheel moves from side to side and that function is assigned to left and right scrolling. The scroll rates are adjustable in SetPoint as is acceleration. SetPoint would allow you to reassign that function if needed. The wheel is also adjustable for fast smooth rolling or rolling with clicks. The fast rolling wheel allows you to move from top to bottom of a screen or set of screens very quickly. You select that by pushing the wheel straight down to click from mode to mode. Its a well thought out piece. I hope the software eventually catches up.

It's incremental. You can feel slight clicks/bumps when you scroll the wheel.

The tracking can be a little iffy. The DPI supposedly ranges from 800 to 2400 based on the setting, but the tracking accuracy can be a bit poor. I use it on a ANKER mousepad and it performs pretty well for my tastes, but I'm not a PRO gamer or anything. I play FPS, MMO and stuff a lot on it and it works fine for me. You probably want a more gaming-oriented mouse if you're planning on doing hardcore RTS or MOBA gaming though.

My experience is that it scrolls as smoothly as you scroll the wheel. Generally works quite smoothly for me.

There are two buttons right under the scroll wheel that were made with that in mind. They have '+' and '-' on them respectively, and are set to adjust DPI to whatever you like in the default setup. You can, however, change the function of the two to whatever else you can think of, so there is a lot of versatility.

I use it for World of Warcraft mainly; however, all I do is go into the key-binding menu for the game and program the mouse buttons (mouse buttons 4 & 5) for the specific action. I know it works on Gary's Mod (a sandbox game in witch you can spawn guns and other items) for reloading... I just tested it to confirm. - I Hope that helps.

The scroll wheel does click as it is being used. Although it does click in as a button, you need to program it to mimic say the left or right mouse button.

The scroll wheel doesn't spin freely. It "clicks" or "ratchets" into the next position on the wheel, but it does so extremely smoothly. I have very little issue with either kind of mouse you have referred to, but I haven't felt much of a difference between this and a free spinner if you will. You may have stronger feelings on the matter, of course.

Nope :( That's the main flaw of this mouse. Scroller is like any other mouse, even the clicking sound.

I have two of these lovely units and have never had a problem with the scroll wheel. Occasionally the ball needs cleaning, as does the socket in which it sits, but that doesn't happen very often. I like these mice so much more than the kind you have to slide around that I'll put up with almost any minor annoyance! Overall, I would rate these as 4.5 out of 5 stars. Really nice units.

The scroll wheel on this mouse spins in increments. It is not totally smooth. Honestly I like it that way as it generally translates to one line at a time when doing slow scrolling. Faster scrolling generally accelerates the rate at which a page moves up and down. I don't know that all of that is controlled by the mouse though. Much of that is probably the scrolling controls for whatever operating system and program (e.g. smooth scrolling in IE or Firefox) as opposed to how this particular mouse works.

I purchased the mouse for my son. He doesn't seem to be having trouble with it. I've used it and it doesn't wobble. I don't know about the side to side scrolling.I don't believe the wheel tilts.
