Our Verdict
SteelSeries Sensei RAW
Endgame Gear XM1r
The Endgame Gear XM1r and the SteelSeries Sensei RAW have visually similar shapes, but the Endgame Gear is a better gaming mouse overall. It's significantly lighter, has a more flexible cable, better mouse feet, and much lower click latency. The SteelSeries has two additional side buttons on the left, making it a good choice if you're left-handed. It also has a button behind the scroll wheel, which the Endgame Gear lacks, that acts as a dedicated CPI button by default.
