The Truth about Gaming Mice

I really think RJN had the best thing to say when it came to mice in general with "Shape is king". Polling rates and all that won't help you if you can't aim properly. Shape>Weight>Latency>Everything Else.

I unsubbed from Fresh Reviews after he criticised some budget "Chinese mice", then stated in complete seriousness that "they don't feel as premium as something like Pulsar". The VXE R1 Pro dumps all over most "premium" mice. I know because I own, or have owned most of them. I have a mouse problem lol. FR comes across as a bit of a shill to me. That said, I agree with what you're saying in the video.

Like others already said, quoted from RJN, "Shape is king" and I would probably add "Weight is queen". Other than that is just preferences. Just picked up a VXE R1 SE+ as recommended from the community and pretty much love it. I don't care if the texture is kinda cheap (I mean it's not that worse compared to other $20 mices) or it's a chinese one. If it works then it works. Don't fell to the marketing trap is the best to summarize about the whole "gaming" scene.

Fun fact, I've had two mice with the 3395 which I refunded for the same reason: no tracking at start of movement if on a soft pad, one instance for up to five seconds (Haste 2 Wireless) and up to 0,3s the other (Model O2 Pro). Never had a sensor that couldn't track properly in a kind of pad since the laser sensor of my 2010 cheap mouse.

thanks for doing this video

Superlite or DA is NOT A GOOD SHAPE for everyone, regardless of what hand size have. Don't fall for it. Size is super subjective.

I think you hit the nail with this one. I'm on a bit of a snag selecting my next mouse. The one I currently have is a Viper V3 Hyperspeed, and although I like the size and shape, the weight and QC from Razer, makes me not want to buy anything from them. Then, scrolling through AliExpress, I found the ATK X1 which is basically a VV3 Pro with different internals, less weight but worse QC at half the price. Makes you wonder if you are safe sticking with your current mouse or if it's indeed necessary to change it. I think I'm going to wait. I like big mice. I can't handle small shapes 'cause my hand starts to hurt after awhile. I've read that Lamzu is launching a bigger Maya, so I'll wait and see if I finally settle.

i went from the Razer Viper to the DAV2 back to the Viper for the weight and clickier main buttons. i only wish the side buttons were bigger and clicky like the DAV2. I thought the 3399 felt and performed better, but overall movement and control is better with the Viper (58g vs 80g).

i think you just have to find your shape. i bough 3 very similar mice recently, but i like the op1 the most, even though the differences are so minute.

low weight is honestly more important than shape, I really wouldn’t play with a mouse heavier than 40 grams no matter how good the shape is.

I just received my hts plus 8k in transparent black. Been wanting to try this mouse due to the shape for a while, and I must say this thing is fire!

There is nothing next apart from niche shapes, Unless there is inbuilt aim assist there's nothing else coming(Which a lot of people deep down want from a mouse).

Thank you, its very interesting! What about Dareu a980pro max?

to me Shape, weight and mouse switches are important. trust me you dont want your 100$ mouse to double click on u. Replacing it is a hassle

you sound like thumpers bun dad
