What customers like about A4Tech Oscar Neon X89

  • Excellent value for money, often cited as a more affordable alternative to higher-end gaming mice
  • High build quality and durable materials that withstand heavy pressure
  • Ergonomic design that fits comfortably in the hand for long gaming sessions
  • Onboard memory for up to 3 customizable profiles and 256K memory for macros
  • Dedicated buttons for quick DPI and profile switching on the fly
  • Stylish RGB 'Neon' lighting effects
  • High 1000Hz polling rate for responsive tracking

What customers don't like about A4Tech Oscar Neon X89

  • Relatively heavy compared to modern ultra-lightweight gaming mice (142g)
  • Maximum DPI is limited to 2400, which may be low for high-resolution monitors or competitive gaming
  • Maximum tracking speed (30 IPS) and acceleration (10G) are lower than many modern competitors
  • Wired-only USB connection limits mobility and setup flexibility
  • Lacks advanced features like a tilting or thumb scroll wheel

Verdict

The A4Tech Oscar Neon X89 is a wired gaming mouse featuring a PixArt PAW3212 optical sensor with a maximum resolution of 2400 DPI, adjustable across five levels (1000/1200/1600/2000/2400) via a dedicated DPI button. Its core characteristics include a 1000Hz polling rate for a 1ms response time, neon RGB lighting effects, and an ambidextrous design with seven programmable buttons, including two thumb side buttons. Key pros include its built-in 256K memory for storing macros through the Oscar Mouse Editor and the ability to switch between three modes (Office, Game, and Multi-media) without software. However, some cons include a relatively high weight of 142g, a low maximum tracking speed of 30 IPS, and a maximum acceleration of only 10G, which may limit performance in high-speed competitive gaming compared to modern high-end alternatives.
