The Asus ROG Spatha comes in well presented packaging with key features and specifications clearly placed on the back.
The top of the box simply slides off, revealing the mouse itself. Under that, you will find a nicely branded Republic of Gamers carrying case, which houses the dock, cables and accessories but before we get into all of that, let's take a closer look at the mouse itself.
At first glance, it is easy to see that the ROG Spatha is a very unique mouse. There are six buttons on the side, which range in shape and size, there are two more regular buttons next to the left mouse button.
The front of the mouse has a vent design surrounding the micro-USB connection. On the under-side of the mouse, we get a good look at the optical sensor being used, which is capable of tracking up to 8200 DPI. You can also see that there is an aluminium base plate, which does add some weight but also brings a lot in terms of build-quality.
Inside of the carrying case we came across earlier, you will find the dock for the mouse. The stand can be removed so you can choose to have it flat on the desk or standing upright.
I do like the inclusion of a charging stand like this. If you take pride in the presentation of your desk/set up, then I find that docks like this add some additional flair. The dock itself is also magnetic, so the mouse won't be falling off.
Finally, Asus has packed in a full range of accessories with this mouse. Not only do you get the choice of having a braided or unbraided cable, but should you ever need to replace the Omron switches in your mouse, an additional pair has been included, along with a tool to help fit them. Asus has gone above and beyond with its bundle here.
