, but will the Katar Elite Wireless crack it with the best ones for creatives out there? Or is it too singularly gaming-focused? The Katar Elite Wireless is light. Very light. It weighs in at a minuscule 69 grams and is very compact too. I have relatively small hands, and with my palm laid across the palm rest, my index finger is almost at the very tip of the left main button, which feels comfortable for me, but might spell trouble for anyone with much larger hands than mine.
To achieve this lightness, the casing is made of very light and thin plastic, and unfortunately with that it does feel a little 'canny', which isn't a feeling I expected to have when handling a mouse that retails at almost 70 quid.The Katar Elite Wireless' main feature and selling point is its lightness and fast response times, and it certainly features both.
This extreme lightness made me a little apprehensive, though, as I prefer a little resistance to give any actions on a mouse or keyboard more weight, but then I've never been any good at FPS games, so there may be a correlation there. However, what we also want to find out is how those features transfer over to creative work. As I was afraid of, the Katar Elite Wireless feels a little too light and resistance-free when doing creative work such as photo-editing.
It is bottom-weighted ever so slightly, but if you're as demanding a creative person as you are a gamer, only one of these two demands will be fully met.
