Evo-G MB1 Gaming Mouse Bungee

Introduction

Evo-G are a fairly new company focusing on gaming gear, making products for gamers around the globe. We took a look at one of their mouse-mats recently and found that whilst it was a decent surface, it didn’t quite do the business as far as presentation and overall functionality.

A little about Evo-G:

Evo-G is all about gaming gear. Our mission is to create performance-enhancing gaming products, created for and by leading professionals.

Our staff is distributed throughout the world, working from offices in Europe, North America and Asia.

The Evo-G MB01

The mouse bungee is not something you come across every day and when I heard that Evo-G wanted to send it to me I was both interested and a little sceptical, if I’m honest.

A little about the product:

The Bungee can prevent unwanted mouse movements that are caused by long mouse cable. It has a slider for expanding 3 times the original length of the Bungee to reach the best distance from your mouse to the mousepad. The Bungee can also be used as a mobile cable reel for the mouse. Finally, it has a stable base to ensure secure support and provides a height-adjustable cable run.

So the bungee is basically a cable holder…what’s the point you ask? Some features and specification before we take a look:

Packaging

Â Now for a look at the product and packaging.

Packaging is good and would certainly both stand out on the shelves and protect the mouse bungee from damage. There’s plenty of info on the pack, although I think a lot of it can be termed ‘marketing gumph’.

The Bungee – a close up

The mouse bungee is a brightly coloured item and looks fairly attractive as well as functional. We got the orange-black model but it is also set to be available in blue-black and steel grid-black which should be good for those wanting something to match their other peripherals.

The Bungee looks an odd little thing fully closed up and actually takes up very little room in your hand. It’s weighted down and the bottom of the bungee is made of a rubber that sticks fairly well to any surface.

Sliding the bungee up out of it’s clamshell shows the extent in which it extends. You slide it open in two stages, the final pull bringing out a metal extension with a rubber grip that holds the mouse cable.
