    Mad Catz Software and Conclusion

    Mad Catz uses their own software suite providing everything you need in a simple to operate suite.  We will be looking at the most current build as of this review. Version V11.0.6. Unlike most major suites, the software does not stay open in any way once settings are saved and closed.

    The software suite is pretty with four separate screens that toggle the display and configuration across the bottom section. Lighting is the default though the only lighting is accenting the scroll wheel.

    DPI allows you to configure up to 6 presets. Parameters contains Mouse Sensitivity, Scrolling Speed and Double-Click Speed. And Macro provides a simple but competent macro programmer with the option to configure profiles.

    Testing

    I tested the Mad Catz MOJO M2 for a couple weeks to get used to the smaller size and weight.  As usual I tested largely in Battlefield 2042 with some longer sessions in Fortnight for variety.  I ended up most comfortable at 2400 DPI with no additional tweaking needed.  My palm grip did lead to some wrist drag as I tended to hold the M2 further back. I would say this mouse is a good fit for a medium to large grip.

    I found no noticeable difference between wired and wireless connectivity during casual gaming and when used as my daily driver for work

    Conclusion

    Choosing a wireless mouse design can be costly and filled with compromise. With the Mad Catz MOJO M2 I never felt like my comfort or performance suffered.  Battery life was great and the light weight feel is very responsive for gaming. No flashy presentation just a good proven shape and solid predictable functionality.

    We rarely like to bring up price due to dependencies and changes over time but I am quite impressed at the price point. To get a good light weight mouse with Kailh switches and a proven PixArt sensor sub $50 is simply amazing.
