Sentey Lumenata Pro Gaming Mouse Review

Up Close and Packaging

The first thing you notice is the weight of the box and how nicely detailed the pictures are. The front has a beautiful close up of the mouse and the back has the mouse pictured in different angles so you know exactly what you are getting. I like this delivery more than having a mouse wrapped in plastic shielding with an open cover. Sentey’s approach is appreciated since it evokes a feeling of opening up something luxurious.

When you open the box you are greeted with a superbly manufactured and stylized black case with the Sentey logo on the front- no recyclable throwaways whatsoever! Inside  is a handy carrying case that is advertised; it is of high quality and offers surprisingly good protection. Inside is the mouse itself, protected by a custom made cushion. Sentey added a great deal of bells and whistles to their packaging that makes unveiling the mouse an experience all in itself. Also included is a poster, VIP Registration card, driver disc, door hangar, and a tastefully printed user manual. I am very impressed with the presentation so far, any feeling of buyer’s remorse would be gone long you even plug in the mouse.

The Lumenata Pro does not stray far from traditional mouse design, Sentey understands this and applied the formula very well . Unfortunately  to deliver a good design Sentey had to make this a right hand only mouse. I would classify this mouse as average, not too big but big enough to fit a wide variety of hand sizes.

The overall build quality is good but not amazing;  you will feel that you are holding a quality product, but it is not something you would want to drop. The Lumenata Pro is a pleasure to use.  The mouse wheel is quick and responsive, and the back and forward buttons are conveniently placed, causing myself to utilize them more than I do with other mice. The thumb rest is made of a high quality rubber, which is helpful during intense gaming.The rubber coating really allowed for better grip of the entire mouse. The DPI switch is located where your hand and thumb meet, the placement of the switch is questionable as moving my thumb so far back to hit the switch could lead to a slip up in a First Person Shooter. I also did not find the placement of the 2 right gaming buttons very good; my ring finger is too short to hit the top one and my middle finger has to be fully removed from the right click button to hit the top gaming button. I ended up using only the bottom  gaming button for my  sessions.

The shape is very similar to the Logitech G400 picture with the Lumenata Pro having deeper curves for more comfort and better grip. Both mice weigh about the same which made me question why customizable weights were not added. For me, the mouse would have hit a sweet spot if it was 10g heavier. However, with some research, I found out that Sentey reserved the customizable weight feature for the tier above the Lumenata Pro’s price point. I suppose you can’t blame them.

This mouse calls for attention…anybody near your battle station will feel enticed to take a closer look and awe at its beauty. The breathing LEDs are a nice touch for the mouse wheel and “Mode Button”. I, however, am having trouble adjusting to all the different colors found on the Mouse. As I type at this very moment  the Lumenata Pro is displaying red, blue, and breathing green and unfortunately, only the green can be changed to red, blue, purple or aqua to indicate the different modes which I will get into when I talk about in the software section.
