SteelSeries Kana Gaming Mouse Review

Rather than include a software CD with the Kana, SteelSeries direct us to their website to download the software.  While this may seem to be a cost cutting measure, it ensures that you have the latest version of the mouse software installed when you get the mouse.  SteelSeries now use one piece of software for all their products which is called ‘SteelSeries Engine'.  It is available for both PC and Mac users.

The first page of the software handles the button assignments.  It lets us assign any of the mouse buttons to a number of different functions including custom macros.  The second page can be accessed using the menu at the top and lets us adjust the sensitivity and polling rate of the mouse.  You can adjust the sensitivity for two levels which are switchable using the button behind the wheel on the mouse.

On the third page of the configuration utility we are able to set up the software to automatically activate specific configuration profiles when certain games or applications are launched.  The fourth and final page gives us access to statistics that show us how often we press each mouse button.

  1. Wow I think that looks really great, love the orange. this is more for gamers with a bit of taste!

  2. I love their mice, but im really fond of the razer mouse I got last month, its a bit thinner so it might not suit people with bigger hands. I think steelseries suit larger people. not sure if that intentional design decision from them or not.

  3. I just can’t trust SteelSeries. Almost every mechanical product I’ve used from them [Ikari, Kinzu. Xai, 5Hv2, Siberia v2] won’t last that long, especially those mice! I’d go for a Razer, if I’d need a gaming mouse.

  4. Got this mouse a week back and I am quite impressed with the performance.

    got this from martnext.com they offered me best price which was 700 lesser than other sites like snapdeal, flipkart etc.COD service delivered in 3 days what else can I ask for, check yourself here.
