HP Pavilion 300 4PH31AA Gaming Mouse 5,000 DPI Customize LED lighting

As the title says, only five buttons on this mouse are programmable, not eight. This is due to a Windows and game limitation for only 5 buttons being directly supported. To exceed 5 buttons being programmable, the manufacturer needs to supply software that allows you to set the extra buttons to emulate pressing keyboard buttons. However, HP does not provide such software for this mouse. So to claim that it has eight programmable buttons i s a flat out lie. Only but this mouse if you only want 5 buttons that can be programmed. As the title says, only five buttons on this mouse are programmable, not eight.

At the promotion price, it is a good mouse in the price range. I would give it four starts if the mouse cable quality were better better. Otherwise, it is okay for normal use. It has have five programmable buttons and works well with a HP Elitebook laptop. As described in other review, HP does not provide any software utility for programming the mouse buttons but it can be done by using pre-programmed button option (there is demonstration video available on Youtube which is easy to follow).

Good left handed mouse, Typical HP hype not quite delivering. No online software or UI for settings and the Onboard settings not the easiest to navigate or control. Side buttons not independent when changing to LH control. Feel, weight and movement top notch though. Good left handed mouse, Typical HP hype not quite delivering.
