The Zeus P1 RGB mouse, top of the range of the Gamdias catalog, promises great satisfaction for the most demanding gamers, both in the competitive and non-competitive environment. Thanks to the attention to detail and above all to the feedback from the various players, Gamdias, brand based on ancient Greek mythology, has managed to package an interesting product both from the point of view of design and performance.
Well optimized software
The mouse offers a “plug and play” solution although to enjoy all the functionality of the mouse, you will need to use the Hera proprietary program. Through this simple program we will be able to create, thanks also to the eight programmable keys available, macros, shortcuts, game profiles and all that will be needed for our gaming sessions.
Through Hera it is also possible to configure the sensor, which will allow you to choose profiles with variable DPI which can be set by a minimum of 1600 up to a maximum of 12000. The default mouse acceleration is disabled, but if necessary it can be activated from the Hera software optical sensor management panel.
Also not to be underestimated is the presence of RGB LEDs which nowadays seem to have become necessary and appreciated trinkets. With the Zeus P1 RGB mouse you will not have to give up all this, in fact there is a two-layer RGB system well thought out reminiscent of the Razer Chroma series mice, and that will let you choose from 16.8 million colors.
Good performance
Speaking of performance, we are faced with a certainly valid product that will allow us to play most of the competitive games out there. The polling rate of 1000 hz guarantees a sufficient response time which, when added to the precision of the optical sensor, promises a considerable advantage in front of the opponent on duty compared to standard mice.
The P1 RGB mounts a optical sensor able to reach the absurd threshold of 12000 DPI, such high speed often seems madness for normal use, but when using PC configurations that exploit high resolutions, or playing particular MMORPG games, it becomes essential to have the ability to adjust and achieve a certain level of PPE.
Good position of the programmable keys and the ability to create complex macros with the possibility of delaying them, or changing speeds, all managed by a timer and audio notifications, appreciated by demanding MMORPG fans.
Ergonomic Design
The design is captivating but at the same time sober (if we exclude the lighting system), with curves capable of allowing one correct grip for most users. Thanks to the PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) layer on the sides you will be able to have a solid grip that will allow you to carry out your actions with absolute precision. As distinctive features we can point out a decal that depicts a gold-colored lightning bolt and the semi-transparent ZEUS RGB logo on the back of the mouse.
They seemed well positioned to us too the eight programmable keys that are easy to reach and at the same time there is no constant risk of pressing them by mistake. The feedback from them and also from the LMB and RMB frets, which are rounded and have no notches, felt responsive and with the right travel, which is good in order to have the right feeling of pressure.
The dimensions of 127.6 (L) x 72.45 (W) x 40.85 (H) mm and the low weight of 125 g allow a easy handling and high sensitivity. The design is almost completely symmetrical, making it particularly suitable for use by both left and right handed gamers.
At the base of the mouse, in addition to the optical sensor, there are 3 Teflon pads which guarantee minimal friction and therefore precise and rapid movements. An excellent one fabric lining for the USB cable, about 1,8 meters long, prevents knots and increases resistance to cuts.
Gamdias has hit the mark with the Zeus P1 RGB which offers a perfect mix of design, ergonomics and performance. Thanks to its minimal design made more captivating by the presence of RGB LEDs you will not struggle to incorporate it into your play / work station and above all you will not tire after a few hours of use, thanks to its ergonomic shape and thanks also to the rubber on the sides that guarantees a solid and comfortable grip. The performance of this mouse is also interesting, thanks to the discreet optical sensor and the very low latency you can play without compromise. An applause also for the Hera proprietary software which does a good job and allows you to manage any device setting with absolute ease: all packaged at a competitive price.
