Iron Man Gaming Mouse
2.4Ghz Wireless Support Plug and Play No additional software or driver installation is needed. Wherever you go, just plug in the mouse and get started. Teflon pads is equipped on bottom. so have a excellent sensitivity of slide.What is DPI? Why we went with low dpi? DPI means Dot Per Inch. In theory, if a mouse has 1600 DPI, then, if you move your mouse one inch (2.54 cm), the mouse cursor will move 1600 pixels. The higher the DPI, the more sensitive the mouse is. That is, you move the mouse even a tiny bit, the pointer will move a huge distance across the screen. Almost all mouse sold today have about 1600 DPI,if you are a pro gamer in first-person shooter games, you probably should use a lower DPI (For example, 800 or 1200). Because lower DPI gives you precision.Power - AAA Alkaline Battery 2 nos

The Sony Blu Ray Theater is the best home theater system out there with amazing sound quality and blu-ray compatibility, best for gifting in a group.
Reviews on amazon
Excellent product for the price. Premium technology offered for movie experience . . . .imagine flawless 3D & 4K movie formats. As an audio receiver, you get good clarity of sound with pleasing bass you can actually feel. Make sure the songs you play are preferably in 320kbps (24bit) quality. For extra bass, choose preset: 'Rock' with 'Music'. This is a premium product of Sony. Hence not to compare with products like Denon, Pioneer etc at this price point; they are far superior and their flagship models cost lakhs. You can service your Sony product in India easily but not easily the case with AVR's mentioned. With proper placement of speakers, acoustics was good enough. Sound signature is indeed class apart compared to other brands at this price in India. Enjoying every bit of it . . . ! 4 stars because external connectivity options are highly limited (for no good reason), centre speaker audibility low, & technical specifications declared are silent on facts like amplifier bandwidth, amplifier and speaker specs, etc
