We also managed to start the mouse right after we took it out of the box. It looks like it is a plug-and-play product for Windows machines (not tested on Mac). 

Design & Looks

The very first impressions by the looks of the GXT 161 Disan were very good - nice and clean design, decided entirely in black with an elegant LED strip.

On the other hand the mouse didn't feel premium but rather mediocre in terms of materials. And if we have to conclude, in terms of design, looks and materials Trust did a good job with the GXT 161 Disan mouse.

Comfort of use

The comfort after the first hours of use is something that we didn't like at all. We are still not sure if it is just the transition from one mouse to another but we didn't feel like it was ergonomically well-made for longer use. That might change after some time, we will keep you updated.

The GXT 161 Disan doesn't have silent click. The buttons are big enough and give enough feedback after pressed.

Trust GXT 161 Disan - product price

We checked in different stores just to compare prices for the GXT 161 Disan. It seems that prices vary a lot, starting from $45 and reaching $80 from different sellers (online). 

For the UK market the average price was £35.

Trust GXT 161 Disan - Battery life

We will drain the battery from what is left as a charge after we turned it on for the first time, we will make a full charge and test the battery performance. Then we will give you exact numbers. 

What the manufacturer claims is that the battery should last for around 30 hours of use before recharging is needed. The nice thing here is that you can charge the mouse while still using it.

And as promised, here is our consumer video with the unboxing and first impressions of the Trust GXT 161 Disan wireless gaming mouse:

Trust GXT 161 Disan consumer feedback - verdict

To be honest we are left with a mixed first impressions by the Trust GXT 161 Disan. We liked the design a lot. Movements are relatively precise for a mouse in this price range. 

We have some serious concerns about the comfort of use for a longer periods of time and we also want to test the battery life after a full charge.
