The Level 10 M Hybrid improves upon the original, adding dual wired and wireless capability, an ergonomic grip, and better software, but the placement of its left-side buttons remains a major stumbling point for this expensive mouse. Read...

This is only the fourth product that Thermaltake has graced with the "Level 10" appellation. The first was the $800 Level 10 case, and the second two were lower-end (although still expensive) "Level 10 GT" cases. At an MSRP of $100, the Thermaltake...

The Level 10 M follows the progression of cases that Thermaltake released with the same name. BMW DesignworksUSA, the company involved with the original Level 10 chassis, assisted in the development of this mouse. Like the original Level 10 case,...

In the end, the Level 10 M is a mouse geared towards high dollar elite gamers. Like the saying goes, "You get what you pay for." Spend a little more and you often get a little higher quality. The Level 10 M is definitely a high quality mouse. It has a...

Thermaltake has made some really cool looking cases and solid power supplies over the years. A couple of years ago they partnered with BMW to create the Level 10 case. This case was completely over the top and offered a crazy design.Thermaltake is back...
