MagikbipedIts good to know, although the newer still works better as for latency fix and some upgrades/fixes.
How do you know this is the 2015 version ? if it really is then this deal is literally nonsense... you can get better price on amazon (55.98$ there with shipping, while on massdrop with shipping 59.74$)
that's really backshot.

NaorFI don't really know how you would be able to tell the difference without comparing model numbers, or just seeing which software the mouse wants installed when it's plugged in.
I do agree that the price is really not that desirable.

MagikbipedWell I don't have to buy to tell the difference, hopefully some1 in-charge of this drop would give a damn and post whether its the new version or 2015, lol.. it really bothers me that there's no clear answer, since if it was the new one, I'd actually buy it.

The differences on these are that they run on different software/firmware. The newer one have a newer firmware and software, right now they can not change the software on the old one but in the future they might have a solution for that! The newer version has better key-binding support, lower click latency , max dpi of the native sensor dpi(5000) and is the one that will be supported for the future. The older one have a few more lightning options and higher max dpi of 10k (which is not native, just "double" 5000 DPI - useless)
**nonetheless- this is one of the best mice on the market (especially for gaming), problem is , if its the 2015 version then this deal simply unworthy and you can get at amazon for better price, but if its the newer version then you might save few bucks here (around 8$ for me as shipping included etc' will be more on amazon).
