Synapse 3 is the problem.
I've been using this mouse for about a month now. Coming from a 400-4,000 DPI mouse, this is a definite upgrade. The 5G optical sensor they threw into it is one of the fastest sensors on the market, and the Ormond switches are top-of-the-line. But even that's not the best part about this mouse. The best part about it is the price. I know, $100 is a bit much for a mouse. I get that. But when you consider exactly what you're getting for that $100, you're getting the best deal. We'll start with the standard 7 button mouse. The closest relative to this configuration is the DeathAdder Elite Chroma. The only differences between the Naga Trinity and the DeathAdder (replaceable button panels notwithstanding) are the texture under the two buttons on the panel and the fact that the Naga Trinity has a 'shelf' for your ring finger, where the DeathAdder does not. The DeathAdder is $67.99. The 14 button configuration (this one has the 7 button MOBA panel) is most closely resembled by the Naga Hex V2. In fact, it's a perfect representation of that particular mouse. The Naga Hex V2 is $44.99 refurbished, and $74.49 new (and that's the least expensive option). In the 19 button configuration (this one has the 12 button MMO panel) is a perfect representation of the Naga Chroma MMO mouse. If you were to buy a new one, this one would cost you at least $93.00. Add all those up, and you get $235.98. But you're getting the functionality, RGB, Chroma, Synapse (more on this later) for $100. Tell me again where you'll find another deal like that. Not to mention the fact that it's a really good, smooth, fast mouse with a different mechanic on the mouse wheel. It rocks left and right, and it's set to scroll websites and documents without rolling the wheel. And of course, you can program each individual button for individual tasks, depending on the situation. They say you have to reboot your computer to change out the panels, but that's simply not true. Synapse recognizes the changes on the fly, and the mouse doesn't suffer any adverse effects. Pop one off, put another one on. Simple. So... why the 4 stars? Synapse. This version (Synapse 3 beta) is something I hope they continue to work on. It's lost the intuitive feel previous versions have had. And no, previous versions weren't perfect. In fact, it would often stop loading profiles, do strange things to the lights of the BlackWidow X Chroma, then load a single color profile. Of course, when that profile was no longer needed, Synapse would reload the desktop profile, and everything would be fine again. Synapse 3 made it harder for me to program an RGB profile for the keyboard. However, I can set individual functions to individual buttons on the mouse. For instance, the BlackWidow X Chroma doesn't have volume controls without using the FN key. I programmed those three functions to the mouse's 7 button panel. If Synapse gets better, I'll change the rating. However, until it does, I'll just hold onto that star. I hope you're listening Razer. You claim to be 'by gamers, for gamers'.
