Verdict

The Sharkoon Skiller SGM35 is a budget-oriented wired gaming mouse featuring an ATG4090 optical sensor with a maximum sensitivity of 6,400 DPI, adjustable in six levels down to 400 DPI. It weighs 80g and is equipped with a 1,000 Hz polling rate, 20g maximum acceleration, and a tracking speed of 100 IPS. Key characteristics include high-quality PBT left and right buttons rated for 30 million clicks, five 100% PTFE feet for smooth gliding, and customisable RGB underbody lighting that can be adjusted via a bottom switch without requiring software. Main pros are its lightweight design, durable grease-resistant PBT buttons, and driverless configuration. However, notable cons include its relatively low maximum tracking speed and acceleration compared to higher-end gaming sensors, as well as the lack of a dedicated profile switching button.
