KitGuru says: The ASUS ROG Strix Carry is small but it certainly packs a punch. It is expensive but if you're a gamer that travels a lot, or someone that wants a portable, reliable mouse then this is 100% worth buying. The rubber grips on both sides are so good I even preferred using this mouse over my daily driver!
