First Impressions:
The CM Storm Recon Optical mouse came in the traditional CM Storm colors: red and black. It is packaged in a flip-front cardboard box encased in a molded plastic clam-shell. The packaging did a great job of keeping the Recon mouse intact. The first thing I noticed when I first laid my fingers on the mouse was the rubberized coating. It felt like it would be secure in my hand and wouldn’t fly across the room when I had a fit of rage. The CM Storm Recon Optical mouse is ambidextrous, so it is good for right handed or left handed use. The Recon has a total of 9 buttons that can be customized and programmed for all sorts of different gaming and non-gaming profiles.
