Enough about the packaging, let’s see what we get inside. On the back of the box, we have a silhouette of the mouse itself. One side of the box says, “We think, we built, we dominate” quite aggressive. The box itself has a fractal pattern all around, and the front of the box simply has the branding for the mouse.

The Zephyr Pro arrived in our hands in a bit of an unusual box. This idea follows through with the packaging for most companies as well. The gaming mouse market is a lot about appearance and design these days. We’re always keen on seeing smaller brands improve on their products, so let’s see what they were able to accomplish the second time around. It turns out that the noise levels and vibration due to the fan were a bit much on the original. The original started out as a Kickstarter project and it left quite a bit of room for improvement. This is a one-of-a-kind feature and makes the mouse stand out on any desk. Marsback also has a trick up its sleeve, this mouse has a built-in fan to cool your sweaty palms. Their newest release, the Zephyr Pro gaming mouse is an all-around solid pick for competitive gamers.

Marsback is taking that challenge head-on.

Standing out is becoming a bit more difficult for newer companies. However, the market is starting to mature, and it’s happening quickly. For example, Glorious has been around for a bit, they started getting real attention with their Model O gaming mouse which we reviewed earlier. Newer companies like Glorious, Finalmouse are starting to make a name for themselves because of this.
