“… possibly the best ambidextrous gaming mouse I’ve ever used.” Matt Buchanan does not go easy when kicking off his SteelSeries Xai review over on Gizmodo.

Especially the ambidextrous form factor, LCD screen and menu as well as the profile system are very well received.

Check out the complete review on Gizmodo.

I kind-of-ish feel entitled to disturb you in whatever you’re doing, to make sure you don’t forget the SteelSeries Winter Wonderland bundle which is available on our webshop at a discounted price, as part of the SteelSeries 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways.

The bundle consists of the SteelSeries Siberia Full-size Headphone, SteelSeries Ikari Laser White and SteelSeries QcK.

Have a festive New Year and good luck with entering the 12 Days of Christmas contests. :-)

I’ve been inactive on the blog for a quite some days now, but with good reason: We’re finally ready to announce a sweet project we’ve been putting together, to make sure you guys have a great time during your in-between-sessions of stuffing calories down your throat, unwrapping awesome gifts, playing in the snow - or doing other holiday activities. ;-)

Basically what we’ve done is gather a bunch of our beloved partners, to create 12 Christmas contests on 12 different websites for 12 days - starting on December 25th. Common for all contests, is the prize package which, among other things, include the limited edition Golden Xai of which only a 100 have been produced world wide.

Also, we’re putting up a special Winter Wonderland Bundle on the SteelSeries webshop, which you definitely need to check out, consisting of the Ikari Laser White, the Siberia Full-size Headphone and the QcK.

See the Winter Wonderland bundle on www.steelseries.com/12days.

Merry Christmas!

The Siberia v2. Simple as that - at least according to Gear Live. Writer Alex Lifschitz explains why:

“…The headset itself is very, very comfortable - I’ve been able to wear it for hours without my ears hurting, thanks in part to the plush feax-leather lining. The quality is superb, with deep bass and effective surround sound, but for me, the it’s the little things that count - such as the retractable microphone hidden in the earcups themselves. Best of all, you can have this luxury for just slightly under a benjamin on Amazon.”

If you’re more into the Siberia v2 USB, Gamerztech dropped a 10/10 rating on that headset last week - check out the review.

As you might know, MSI is a fellow partner of Fnatic - just like we are.

Now, recently MSI announced their first 3-Way SLI supportive motherboard, the MSI P55 Big Bang Trinergy, and decided to bundle it nicely together with the official, SteelSeries Limited Edition QcK+ (Fnatic) as well as a SteelSeries Kinzu Optical Mouse.

Currently the bundle is only available in Sweden via KOMPLETT.se, but rumor has it that it will soon be available in more countries. ;)

I’ll keep you posted on availability.
