Zaključak

Force M9 i M9 ICE su solidna dva miša, u izvedbi na kakvu nas je Gigabyte već ranije naviknuo. Problem s vezom na koji smo naišli, a koji se manifestirao smrzavanjem kursora, ili pak njegovim trzanjem, riješili smo instalacijom softvera pa bi Gigabyteov naputak za sve korisnike trebala biti obavezna instalacija. Moguće da je problem samo kod naših pretprodukcijskih primjeraka, a za potvrdu toga ćemo pričekati prva iskustva korisnika. U svemu ostalom, od kvalitete materijala, preko precizne izrade do ergonomije ovi miševi su vrlo dobri za svakodnevno korištenje u uredskim zadaćama, surfanje webom pa čak i onime u čemu smo ih mi koristili – pripremi slika za članke u Photoshopu. Gigabyte na oba miša daje dvije godine garancije, a cijene za Hrvatsko tržište još nisu formirane. Force M9 smo našli u američkim webshopovima po cijeni od 40 USD, dok se M9 ICE cijeni 50 USD. Cijene nisu malene, pogotovo kad se na to doda naš PDV, no vjerujemo kako će oba miša biti pozicionirana dobro u odnosu na konkurenciju protiv koje imaju što za ponuditi.

 

Conclusion

Force M9 and M9 ICE are two very solid mice, who follow the basic form of what we have already seen with Gigabyte. We have encountered a link problem, which is manifested itself by freezing cursor or its twitching, along with some other symptoms. We have strangely solved these problems with downloading and installing SIM software and Gigabyte should instruct all users that the installation should be mandatory. It is possible that the problem is only with our examples, but that will be confirmed or dismissed with the first user experiences. In all other aspects, from the quality of materials through precise craftsmanship to ergonomics both mice’s are very good for daily use in office tasks, web browsing, and even in usage we put them through – image processing in Photoshop. Gigabyte provides a two year warranty for both models, and prices for the Croatian market are not yet formed. We found both models in US web shops for the price of 40 USD for M9, and 50 USD for M9 ICE. Those prices are not so low, especially when you add our VAT value, but we believe that both mice will be positioned well in relation to the competition against which they have plenty to offer.
