Software
Dragon Breath S600 is plug and play supported. You can use it directly without any driver installation. Or you can unlock more features with the bundled software driver. And all the configuration will be stored in mouse built-in 64KB memory MCU. All 7 buttons are configurable with functions like Windows and multimedia shortcuts. 5 sets of DPI – 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 DPI for you to select. Hmm… No other smaller value can be set. Finally, there are 5 profiles for you to play with – setting1 to setting5.
You can set LED light colour based on RGB settings. Report rate from 125Hz to 1000Hz. Macro keys can be set in Macro manager, Advanced config. Cursor speed, vertical scrolling and double clicking speed can be set there as well.
Performance Result
Dragon Breath S600 optical performance is smooth and accurate thanks to Avago A3050 Chipset. Surfaces with slightly shinny and reflective ones are working fine here. I don’t need to have much learning curve with S600 even though the optical sensor is slightly at bottom center. As for ergonomic, it is fairly well I must say. Nice especially for fingertip grip. Buttons are responsive and feedback is good too thanks to OMRON switches. It has one same weakness like S400 – high mouse lift off distance. In this case, you need to lift the mouse higher than usual to lose the tracking. As I mentioned, not a deal breaker once you get used it…
