    Unmatched Performance

    The Rival 300’s performance reigns over the competition thanks to a cutting edge sensor, newly developed SteelSeries switches, and a suite of tweaks to give you the edge over your rivals.

    Unrivaled Design

    The mouse professional gamers depend on, just got better. While designing the Rival 300, we kept everything you loved about the original Rival and added several improvements.

    Endless Customization

    Rival 300 is incredibly customizable with 16.8 million color, 2-zone illumination, a 3D printable nameplate for individuality, and SteelSeries Engine 3 for finely-tuned performance adjustments.

    Advanced Optical Sensor

    At the heart of Rival 300 is the Pixart PMW3310 optical sensor. The 3310 promises zero hardware acceleration, offering true 1:1 tracking and precise movements no matter how fast things get during the heat of battle. The CPI is best-in-class with adjustments from 50 to 6500.

    SteelSeries Switches

    The proprietary SteelSeries engineered switches have a lifetime of over 30 million clicks and are the high-speed conduit between the sensor and mouse clicks. The audible mouse click is subtle, while delivering quick, tactile responsiveness.

    Fine Tuning

    When it’s time to get competitive you can really dial-in your settings thanks to SteelSeries Engine 3. Adjustable CPI, programmable buttons, polling rate, angle snapping, acceleration and deceleration are among the customizations that will make the mouse perform as you see fit.

    Forged by Victory

    Rival 300’s shape was molded from some of the most iconic gaming mice of the past. We took great lengths to ensure a comfortable fit thanks to the right-handed orientation, a raised back end, and sleek contours.

    Refined Side Grips

    SteelSeries engineers have gone to great lengths to create the best possible side grip for the Rival 300. We went back to the drawing board and sculpted new side grips from a more durable and dense material that is more resistant to sweat and abrasion.

    Ergonomic Buttons

    No one wants to do finger gymnastics just to press a button on their mouse. We engineered Rival 300 with ergonomic button positioning and size so clicks and movements feel natural, quick, and don’t take away from gameplay.

    Brilliant Illumination

    Rival 300 features two independent lighting zones that are capable of 16.8 million colors. Colors can be adjusted in each zone, per specific profile, game or application. Four brightness levels and three lighting effects to choose from—Steady, ColorShift and Breathe—will help make your Rival 300 your own.

    SteelSeries Engine 3

    SteelSeries' software suite is where you take control of the mouse and its many features. This new version of SteelSeries Engine 3 gives users a unified application to control all of their SteelSeries products, offers cross platform support, and will feature a cloud syncing system to make sure you always have your Rival 300 settings.

    3D Printable Name Plate

    Handy with a 3D printer? Why not design your own Rival 300 nameplate? To switch out the nameplate, simply pry the existing one off at either end (a fingernail or the tip of a pen can do the trick) and pop your new one in.

    Nice Mouse!
    4 Stars
    Nice Mouse!
    I got this mouse to replace my Logitech G700S. I wanted a lighter mouse and one that was wired so I didn't have to worry about the battery being charged. This fit the bill. I also liked the relatively simple design of the mouse and was reminiscent of my old MS Intellimouse Explorer 3.0I paired this mouse with my Mac Pro 5.1 so i use this mouse with both OSX and Windows. I didn't install drivers on either OS but the mouse recognized and worked without issue on both. The mouse is comfortable and tracks smooth and accurately.I got the flat black model which seems to attract oil more than some other models and I've read about some reliability issues with this mouse about long term reliability so minus 1 star for that. But so far I'm happy and this mouse will last for a few years.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Shape to die for! (is it better than the 310?)
    Reviewed in India on October 1, 2017
    I have multiple mice. Most are from logitech as my first gaming mouse was g400. I really liked its shape and its weight distribution. After 3 years of use the wire came lose (a common problem for g400) . I decided to buy the g400s which was exactly the same mouse with just some new imprints and a new logo (they also fixed the wire on the g400s). So after using the g400s day in day out, it started showing its age after 3 years. The scroll wheel was not working properly (wasn’t registering steps precisely) . I thought, time to buy a new g400s, but BOOM dropped the “discontinued” bomb from the logitech on me. The search for a new perfect mouse was on. In my quest I came across a bunch of mouse, namely the g502, g303 and the g403. None of them felt perfect or even similar to the g400s shape (my hand size is 20 by 11 and i use palm grip). G502 was too heavy with an okay shape. G303 has abominable shape. The g403 was near perfect for me but the size was a tad bit too small and weight was way too less at 90 gms (g400s was 134gms).
    I already had my eyes on the rival 300 and it was in my wish list. When its price droped to 3.5k i purchased one and BANG, them edshots are back.
    The shape of rival 300 is just perfect for large hands with palm grip. Whole of your palm gets good area to rest and grip. Weight is very well balanced and the rubberised side grips are perfect. In g403 my ring finger struggled to find some space to rest but the rival 300 has abundant space as the side grips are huge. Both the ring and pinky fingers contribute in lifting the mouse which makes it easies to lift than any other mouse mentioned above. The lift off distance is also low and comparable to any good laser sensor. The tracking is impeccable, no spin outs or jitter at 800 dpi.
    But.. the rival 310 is out and available for around 5k now! So should you buy the 310 instead? Well I did end up buying a 310 and frankly speaking, I didn't like it. It is more expensive and its sensor is meant for people who play at a higher dpi of 3000+ , I don’t know anyone who plays cs or other fps games at such high dpi. So I can’t recommend the 310 at its current price point when the 300 is still alive and kicking. Don’t get me wrong, in reality the 310 is a perfect upgrade from the 300, but the weight difference is too much for my muscle memory. 310 feels too light and the sensor too precise (I play cs with raw input off but with the 310 it just didn’t feel right). Reducing the polling rate on the 310 to 500 hz did match it with the 300 but the lower weight was still a big issue for me. It made my aim inconsistent . The texture of the 310 is better than the 300 and the side grips are made of silicone but still I couldn’t find a good reason to use it everyday. I just hope steelseries updates the 300 with the texture and side grips of 310 keeping the wieght and sensor same.
    Bottom line- look out for good deals on the rival 300 and get it. You won’t regret it.
    Thanks for reading.
    EDIT- the picture posted is my friend’s rival 300 after almost 3 years of use. Thats why the silicone grips are better than rubber.
