Frequently Asked Questions

How durable is the Rival 3?

In addition to using the same 60 million click switches as our most expensive mice, we use a high-grade extra-strong polymer to make sure that the mouse can withstand almost anything you throw it at. We also used a same split-trigger click design, which means the left and right clicks stay fast and consistent for years of use.

What grip style does the Rival 3 use?

The design of the mouse favors users who use either a claw or fingertip grip. While a palm grip is also possible, we encourage palm grip users to explore the Rival 310, Sensei 310, and Sensei Ten for maximum comfort.

Does the CPI save from PC to Xbox?

Yes, you can save 5 CPI (counts per inches) profiles directly to the mouse and they will carry over from PC to Xbox One.
