With an Avago ADNS-9800 and up to 8200 DPI, the Aivia Krypton felt appropriately responsive in any game we played. On-the-fly DPI switching is easy with both up and down available on the same button in the center of the mouse. The rest of the buttons are balanced well between the fine line of too easy to press or too firm, with all being well within reach of my fingers. It just seems to be a little too spongy after using Logitech or SteelSeries mice. While we're discussing negatives, we'd like to point out that the scroll wheel's feedback is a little disappointing. With no sweaty palms or cramping, the only issue is that you may have a problem reaching the odd-shaped buttons on both the left and right sides toward the front if you have small to medium sized hands.
There's not much to fault with the Krypton. We enjoyed trying the speed chassis (abrasion-free ceramic feet) when used with all the weights. The dual chassis adds another layer of customization that may help some. We should mention this unit comes with probably the best designed box and accessories package out of all the products we've tested here, with the weight adjustment case an impressive little addition. Size is nearly spot on for our liking, with the Aivia Krypton measuring up at 128mm long x 67mm wide x 41.5mm tall. We added 14.2g with the two heavier 5.3g weights towards the front and didn't experience any cramping after a straight four hour gaming session. But that's no issue thanks to the included weights, as you can add up to 39g in increments of 1.8 or 5.3grams. Out of the box this mouse weighs only 110g (without the cable or tuning weights), which felt a little light and unbalanced, especially on the front end. With fairly aggressive lines, LED lighting and a sleek logo we can't see this design disappointing too many people. Gigabyte may not come to mind when thinking about gaming peripherals, but they are certainly not one to forget if judging by our first impressions of the Gigabyte Aivia Krypton.Īside from what we class as a killer looking design, this mouse has the features to back it up.
