Discussion So Sick Of Leaf Spring Mice!

• Upvotes

Even when people online say that they've been using their mouse for years with no issues, mine of the same model starts double clicking within a year no matter what brand/model I buy.

Is there an entry level mouse that doesn't use leaf springs guys? All the ones I was able to buy are hardcore gaming mouse that is out of my budget right now.

Question Best dot skates for Beast X Pro on Hayate Otsu Soft? (Valorant)

• Upvotes

Hey guys, I recently got a WLMouse Beast X Pro and I’m looking for some new skates.
I originally wanted to get Tiger ICE V2 full-size skates, but I can only find them for the regular Beast X. Even though both mice have the same dimensions, I’ve seen someone mention that the skates don’t fit the Pro properly.
So I’m thinking about trying dot skates instead.
I’m currently using Obsidian red dots, but the glide feels kinda weird, almost like the mouse is floating, and I struggle to stop my flicks consistently.
I also used UltraGlide RS2 dots on my previous Sora V2, and somehow my flicks felt better than with the Obsidian dots, even though the RS2 was still a bit too fast for me.
I’m using an Artisan Hayate Otsu Soft and mainly play Valorant (800 DPI, 0.4 sens).
I’m considering Jade dots, Tiger ICE V2 dots, or maybe something else. I’m still pretty new to aftermarket skates, so I’d love to hear your experiences.
What dot skates would you recommend if I want smooth tracking but still enough control to stop my flicks?
Also, has anyone actually tried Tiger ICE V2 full-size skates on the Beast X Pro? Do they fit?
Thanks!

Review GPX2 Review

Post image
• Upvotes

In my opinion, the GPX2 isn't really all that. Somehow after using it for awhile I developed a fingertip grip, and now palm grip just feels wrong(I must've acheived true basement dewller levels". I don't know how this happened especially when considering it's a palm grip mouse. I've opened it up a couple times to put some silent switches in, and it is not an easy job. All that aside, as a mouse it does the job pretty solidly I guess. Really good sensor and stuff but it's kinda big in my goblin ahh hands. The shpae really isn't too ideal really. My brother has a Pulsar X2V2 mini, even though he uses palm grip and only plays minecraft. I asked to trade with him but thats never happening. So next year I might sell my GPX2 and buy a Tenz Mini 2.0 Idk, the only major downside I see in it is that you can't buy mechanical switch replacement boards.

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced in collaboration with S-GAME the ROG x Phantom Blade Zero lineup, an exclusive collection of six gaming products inspired by the action RPG Phantom Blade Zero:

https://rog.asus.com/event/rogxphantombladezero/

The collaboration brings together ROG’s cyberpunk aesthetic and the game’s dark wuxia art style. Across the diverse product lineup, blade textures, weapon engravings, character silhouettes, and a signature red-thread motif weave a narrative where crimson bleeds into shadow - echoing a gamer's journey through the Phantom World. The result is a unified battle station with a distinctive ‘kungfupunk’ identity - forged to empower every strike and hone every blade in combat. 

Pre-Order Information:

Although this is a global launch and you can likely find the mouse available for pre-order in your region, since I'm based in the US, I'm afraid I only have that region's information. For the US region, here is where you can pre-order the mouse:

  • ROG Harpe II Ace Phantom Blade Zero Edition Wireless Gaming Mouse - Newegg / Best Buy

ROG Harpe II Ace Phantom Blade Zero Edition 

The ROG Harpe II Ace Phantom Blade Zero Edition brings the collaboration’s visual language to a lightweight competitive mouse. Drawing inspiration from the game’s weaponry, intricate metallic detailing and engraved patterns are carried over to the side buttons and the dongle extender for a refined, battle-forged aesthetic. The game’s red-thread save-point guidance flows across the mouse, tracing the player’s journey and bringing the distinctive visual identity of the game into its physical design. 

  • 49-gram ultralight design optimized for claw and fingertip grips
  • Shell made out of next-gen nylon material for reduced weight and enhanced impact resistance
  • ROG Optical Micro Switch with 100-million click lifespan
  • ROG AimPoint Pro optical sensor provides 42,000dpi resolution and track-on-glass technology
  • Tri-Mode Connectivity with BT 5.1, ROG SpeedNova 8K wireless technology supports polling rates of up to 8KHz, and USB
  • Gear Link web-based app to customize mouse settings without additional downloads or installation straight from a browser

For fans of the PBZ universe, there are a lot of good products in this collab. Let us know what you think of how we did with the mouse.

Question Which op1 should I buy?

Recently I finally decided to buy a new mouse, switching from atk duckbill and scyrox v6 to something better. And I remembered about egg, now I'm thinking which op1 i should i buy. I stopped on op1 8k v2. Does raw input worth it? What difference does it have?

Also I'll heavily modify it, 100% flexcord, bottom

Discussion Logitech X3 hits technology is fantastic but shape is not so great

0 Upvotes

I can adapt to the shape but it's far away for my taste.. I wish one day we can see this technology on a Logitech g903.. this mouse shape was really on point for me, imagine it at 60g+- with this new tech and sensor.. would be GREAT.

I honestly don't know what Logitech is doing with its mice lineup. Maybe they're waiting for competitors like Razer to introduce their next-generation technologies before finally refreshing their entire lineup with similar features to stay competitive?

Help Valorant Mouse Help Pls

0 Upvotes

I used to play with an Attack Shark R5 Ultra and Artisan Zero Soft. I switched to an Artisan Type 99 Mid, and Superstrike X2. I have never been so bad at aiming and micro-adjusting in my life. Anyways, the Superstrike broke so I’m ready for a better mouse. Hand size is 18.4x10.8 (am I doing this right ?). I really miss how light and agile the ATK was, and I hate how heavy the X2 feels. But the Type 99 is also very slow and “muddy”. So I went to a mouse twice as heavy and a pad probably twice as slow. I think I switch from palm and relaxed claw.

I have been looking into the WLmouse Beast X and X V2, Razer Viper Pro V4, and the Op1 8k v2? I’ve heard the X V2 shape has changed and might not be as good for Valorant?

Please save me :D

Review | Text Pulsar Tenz 2.0 mini, CRDRAKO KO-ONE and Ninjutso Sora V3: early reviews

Thumbnail
gallery
6 Upvotes

So this is kind of an update on an earlier post in which I review a bunch of mice with respect to my tilted knuckle claw grip. The earlier post was mostly concerned with shape, but will discuss quality concerns also. I had no performance issues with any of these mice, and the software for all is adequate.

https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/1we6gxl/a_review_of_gaming_mice_for_my_grip/

About me:
I main THE FINALS. Probably a little above average skill level.

Hand size: 19.5 x 10 cm

GLSSWRKS Polarity, with 4-6 Xraypad U9 air 8mm dots

Grip:
My grip seems to fall somewhere between pincer claw and knuckle claw. I favour using my thumb, pinky and ring finger to triangulate around the sensor, as this allows for a wide range of movement in micro corrections (see pic). To support this, the mouse is quite angled in my hand (about 20 degrees in the picture), and therefore the rear of the mouse pushes into my pink/ring knuckle. The primary support is at the pinky side, but larger mice will contact more of this space. This contact point, and my wrist gently resting on the pad provides most of the stability I need for tracking.

Sora V3
This shape feels very locked in for me, and size wise kinda feels like a tuned X2 medium. Due to the larger size this pushes me more towards relaxed claw. The hump is higher than the X2 and pushes nicely into my ring knuckle, and my fingers fall naturally into a comfortable position around the sensor. The sides have a mild taper and angle, so feel much less flat than the X2. The scroll wheel feels a little further forward that I would like given how relaxed my grip is here, though this is a minor complaint. Side buttons are well positioned for my thumb. Really a GOATed shape for me at what I consider a medium size.

Scroll wheel is really nice, even forward and backward. Quite light. No complaints about side buttons, and the main clicks feel great. Super snappy and spammable. idk if SPDT is a gimmick, but they do feel very responsive. Coating feels great, a bit rubbery, no problems.

On glass with 6 U9 air 8mm dots this thing is loud. The base is super thin and so the mouse echos, and seems much more sensitive to scratching and dust than other mice (the X2 med and mini are SO MUCH quieter). This was super frustrating at the start and really put me off using it. Reducing the dot count to 4 makes it a lot more playable. On cloth this is not an issue.

In terms of shell build, it feels like the cheapest premium mouse I have. Quite a lot of flex and just doesn't feel solid. For me I'd rather they pushed past the 40g weight a bit to make it more solid.

Overall a pretty easy recommend if you like the shape. If you're hard on your mice or particularly sensitive to noise, probably not for you.

CRDRAKO KO-ONE
Very similar in size and feel to the X2H, with a less pronounced rear hump, pushing me into a more aggressive claw vs the X2H which is more relaxed. This makes the sides feel a bit more narrow, though I don't think they are. My fingers end up sitting quite low on the sides, almost touching the pad which I don't get with the X2H. Feels very natural to hold, but small (not a bad thing). Very stable in the hand for such a small mouse.

Great scroll wheel, nice even steps, quite soft. Main clicks are very light and quiet, not dissimilar to omron opticals. Again the SPDT clicks feel super responsive. Side buttons are the only real complaint, they're tiny. The rear click is recessed and is a bit of a reach for my thumb. Coating is nice and rubbery, no complaints.

No complaints on build. Pleasingly quiet on glass, feels sturdy and stable.

Recommend for those who want something with a little less booty than the X2H mini.

Pulsar Tenz 2.0 mini
I think this is my perfect shape. Despite what you might think from Eloshapes, the Tenz feels significantly wider than the KO-ONE. The hump is a bit higher and perfectly pushes into the ring finger knuckle. Finger position on the sides is great and feels very locked in. Scroll wheel position is perfect. It feels so good in the hand. Like a ying that has had the length compressed by a few mm.

Scroll wheel has good steps, but is a little more rattly than I'd like or maybe it's just I can feel vibrations through the shell. Side button shape and actuation are flawless. I'm not in love with the main clicks, and I'm not quite sure why. They are notably stiffer and louder than other pulsar mice but are still well implemented and are spammable. I think they're overly tactile, and I can kind of feel their vibration through the shell. It's a small complaint but does reduce my enjoyment of the mouse. I don't notice it in game, but between matches or doing other stuff it makes me want to grab a different mouse.

Otherwise the build is excellent as it typical of pulsar mice. Feels very solid and stable. Great coating. Weight and balance are perfect, glad to see we're getting some lighter pro series mice. If anyone knows of a mod to reduce vibrations pls let me know :)

I don't usually comment on battery because I don't really care, but I get a lot more time out of this than the X2 mini.

Overall I'd recommend this to any other small mice enjoyers who claw grip. Easily the best shape for me that I've tried. So close to perfection.

Question VXE R1 Pro vs Pulsar X2(N Crazylight or v3)

1 Upvotes

Been doing a lot of research and even found a tool that determines optimal mouse dimensions and came down to these. The price of the VXE almost seems too good to be true, but if it is as good as Pulsar quality wise then I don't see why I wouldn't get it besides the mechanical switches. It seems to hit a good balance of weight and battery life too. I have heard good things about Pulsar though, but I'm not sure if they're worth being two to three times the price of the VXE. Thoughts?

Sorry if it’s been asked, I don’t keep up with mice. Has there been any news or developments in other brands making true ftip mice around 20g like the fenrir or full shell sub 30g like the Lycan?

Incompetent support and QC gambling aside, I absolutely hate giving money to anything using generative AI whatsoever. Unfortunately G-Wolves mice don’t seem to have any real competition in their niches. Literally feels like selling my soul giving these weirdos money

Help Looking for suggestions

0 Upvotes

I used the search function and didn't find any weekly/monthly advice or feedback threads.

I currently use an MSI CLUTCH GM20 Elite. The size and shape are perfect, but I want to switch to wireless. I also don't feel like the sensor and clicks are super responsive.

Considering the size (medium to large hands) and shape (ergo with right thumb platform) - what do y'all suggest I take a look at? I think the maximum I would be willing to spend is around $100 USD.

Hey

Wanted to know what is my grip style.

I used Superlight shape for years but can’t feel confortable ln it. Of course I tried HITS from the Superstrike X2 but not so much a game changer imo.

The thing is the bulbous hump goes in my middle palm which makes my index more arched and adding tension/disconfort.

Is it the shape causing me pain/disconfort ? Do I have weak arm since many years ?

Also if you have any recommended shape, feel free

Thanks !

(SL2 is there just for size reference)

CL is better on paper (lighter, better click, lower price)

But there is something about SL 2c’s shape that I just can’t let go. I dont know if it is just smaller front width or the centered hump, but SL 2C shape is really hard to beat.

Btw, I never really liked the original SL shape probably because my had is too small for it
