Reviews last updated: May 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Sharkoon Skiller SGM2

  • Excellent value for the price, often cited as a great budget entry-level gaming mouse
  • Comfortable ergonomic shape, particularly well-suited for users with medium to large hands
  • Plug-and-play simplicity with no additional software required to operate
  • Attractive RGB lighting with six selectable modes and a dedicated physical button for control
  • Solid build quality for its price point, with some users noting a sturdy, non-creaking chassis
  • Rubberized side surfaces provide a secure and stable grip during use

What customers don't like about Sharkoon Skiller SGM2

  • Lack of dedicated software means buttons and lighting cannot be deeply customized or remapped
  • The optical sensor is considered basic and may not meet the precision requirements of competitive or experienced gamers
  • Switches are rated for a relatively low lifespan of 5 million clicks compared to higher-end models
  • The mouse is relatively heavy (106g), which may not appeal to fans of ultra-light gaming mice
  • Some users find the materials feel cheap or slippery, especially if they have dry hands
  • The scroll wheel has been reported by some to have very low resistance or tracking issues

Verdict

The Sharkoon SKILLER SGM2 is a wired, right-handed gaming mouse featuring an optical SPCP6651 sensor with four preset levels up to 6,400 DPI, a 1,000 Hz polling rate, and a 1 mm lift-off distance. Designed with a classic ergonomic shape, it includes rubberised sides, six buttons (two for the thumb), and RGB lighting with six selectable modes controllable via an underside switch without needing software. Its primary advantages are its affordable price, driver-free plug-and-play setup, and comfortable grip for palm users, while notable drawbacks include its relatively heavy 106g weight, lack of customisation software, and a stiff textile-braided cable that can create friction.
