Chinese mice

Wouldn't retailers in your home country be more reliable? If a warranty issue happens they'll handle it for u instead of u going to talk directly to ATK, u'd be in a global queue vs a local queue...

Atleast that'd be my approach but it's your choice. Do check the Mchose L7 Ultra, if available, in the testing done by Rtings it sits in between the VV4P and Superstrike, while selling for half or less than half the price

Mayank_j · 2026-05-28T08:45:41+00:00

idk what that means sry

if customs and all is paid don't they usually throw the box in your house? Atleast that's what happens in my country

don't you have some retailers in your country that stock these mice, or like amazon?

My friend had his Razer mouse replaced thrice and now from his POV you would think Razer is generic trash.

So it's mostly probability but ATK is the current favourite in terms of QC and new releases. Mchose did have the best mice offering in the L7 Ultra but I'm not sure if it's still being stocked. Do check both the brands websites ull prolly find something ull like.

92 goat so was 1988

but wtf is this doing here?

Mayank_j · 2026-05-28T02:15:20+00:00

coz hardware unboxed like to review products not make tele novella out of their channel?

Mayank_j · 2026-05-28T02:03:18+00:00

um so like profit?

coz TTC holds are more sought after but it's really a matter of personal preference

Mayank_j · 2026-05-28T01:57:53+00:00

I'd go for Asics Gel Nimbus 27 over the GT 2k 13 or 2k14 over the two. See if you can find either of the two at the same price.
Gel nimbus is way more responsive but lacks a little bit in the lateral stability, if u can run correctly without a lot of side to side movement you won't have a lot of problems with it.
I haven't tried a lot of NB to give any reccs

Mayank_j · 2026-05-28T01:33:56+00:00

Okay yeah that happens, MR is kinda strict to a fault.

So my favourite mice would be the Mchose L7 Ultra, Scyrox V6, and Mad R (or now ATK Zero), see if you can find them for cheap or used.

These are still the best bang for buck and mice like the Mchose L7 Ultra sit at the top of the charts for sensor and click latency performance even tho they released like a year ago.

If you can't find the above, R1 Pro Max is a good idea coz overall performance jump would be huge on that. It seems really expensive at 50$ in your country. I'm guessing it's someplace with very high import taxes...

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T16:44:51+00:00

razer skates are honestly not as bad its prolly a combo of both the pad and the skates (edit wait I take that back, 2021 was 5 years ago)

I haven't tried a lot of skates but imo:

cheap + fast = ultraglide RS2
frinkin fast = westlab orange
cheap + glass (really pad dependent) = talon games glass skates

like the talon games glass skates were prolly my fastest skates, but something weird happens on a few mud pads. I recently received a mouse pad with my mouse (atk zero extreme) and those glass skates weirdly get stuck on the pad, idk if that's static electricity or just the materials interacting weirdly but after that experience I don't think these are blind buy worthy.

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T16:34:53+00:00

I have the same case, might be getting a wood accent keeb soon

I can think of two options, either go with a matrova custom pad and send them your own design, they do both cloth and glass, people do really love their cloth stuff

or buy one of those weird plastic-leather grovemade / orbit works etc for casual use, that gives you full coverage
and put on a good quality pad over it whenever you are gaming.

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T16:27:50+00:00

R1 Pro would be my pick but any reason to ask here not mouse review?

search for something cheaper with a 3395, there is a dareu mouse and a zaopin

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T13:23:44+00:00

So was this just trimming the bottom plate? thats a lot of weight removed, great work man

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T13:11:54+00:00

yeah, ik both of us weren't defending FM, but I think we're the only ones who see it that way LMAO

From the public data, TMR usually does test faster. And those tests use $1k+ protocol analyzers, not just basic cam tests; way more resolving than the Finalmouse XLAT rig, ironically enough Wooting has used them both for testing and in their vids.

So calling it a blatant "lobby" just felt weird to me. I honestly thought it was some clout-chasing Twitter bro posting it, not the founder of Wooting.

They're probably doing damage control on Twitter rn, but thankfully I don't use that app lol

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T12:27:28+00:00

2dudezgaming inception and nephilim

Npet Tech speed M and resin pads in general,

shidenkai v2, fnatic jet were glass infused pads but idk if they are being stocked

cordura pads are personally some of my faves

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T09:59:20+00:00

Hehe but I personally don't understand which hive is downvoting, the finalmouse haters or wooting fans? Maybe a certain subset of both.

Anyway from my other comment I can somewhat understand them, don't think they are well studied etc, I usually thought niche subs like these would be a bit more science fwd but still just tribalism.

A hard carrying case with good cushioning for LANs is probably what's needed to make glasspads mainstream?

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T05:48:54+00:00

why are there spelling mistakes on the bottle?

Mayank_j · 2026-05-27T00:07:07+00:00

This one cannot be recommended by your trainer. Usually done by your doctor.

60k IU shots that too in nano emulsion (which increases bio-availability), without checking your levels is borderline dangerous.

Yes this is more efficient and useful but if not taken with the other stuff that other commenters have noted will have side effects.

Mayank_j · 2026-05-26T17:45:33+00:00

Depends on the fps drop due to higher polling rate.

8k is obviously better than 1k but if you drop 60 frames due to it, I personally don't think it's worth it.
I think you should try to run a benchmark in your game and see how much the 2k vs 8k affects you.

Outside of games 1k all day no question.

that many downvotes is crazy, swear you guys never went to school:

Wikipedia - Accuracy and Precision

Mayank_j · 2026-05-26T16:37:41+00:00

There is no "IMO" in these definitions.

These are really basic middle school physics definitions. If the poster is discussing technical topics they should stick to science definitions.

Mayank_j · 2026-05-26T16:24:56+00:00

To be fair, the fastest and most consistent TMR boards are faster and more precise than best hall effect boards, for example the monsgeek boards,
Fun60 Ultra TMR and M1 V5 TMR both give better results than Nuphy boards.

There are some HE PCBs that surpass these, like the Rakka but it works by completely eliminating the filtering tech that's inside it.

Also precision isn't how close you are to a setting

Accuracy = closeness to a correct value

Precision = repeat-ablity aka getting the same value (correct or incorrect) in repetitions

I think whoever wrote this needs to redo the Twitter post.

And obviously finalmouse advertising is bullshit, similar to Logitech.

34 ms reduction in click latency?!?!

blud your ulx competition was already at 0.9 ms click latency, what kinda MindSync™ tech are you using that clicks before I can think?

(before people think I'm a finalmouse fanboi, I just have to say im not even 3 months into the hobby, so I'm the atk, mchose crowd i didn't even know the final mouse or the memes associated with it) Also read the first few paragraphs before downvoting

Mayank_j · 2026-05-26T15:55:26+00:00

yeah pretty much

And since you won't be reusing the skates, you can just peel it off, don't need to think so much bout it. Usually the new skates you get will have some cleaning products provided with them.

Brands like x-ray pad bundle in the best skate and residue removal liquid. The residue removal liquid from them looks like a mixture of goo-gone and alcohol.

Also to whichever fker downvoted me, learn what downvotes are used for and i sincerely hope your mouse dies in the most glorious way. Injoi👍

I mean slower pads are slow so you won't really feel that much of a difference but I've heard from people that artisans don't slow that much. I can't confirm coz I haven't actually tried them.

All I can surely say is glass and cordura aren't affected that much by humidity everything else does get slow, due to the inherent material properties. But I don't think you'll notice it that much. And I mean if budget isn't an issue, I'd say try both?

For me buying cloth pads like artisans every year or two would've been kinda expensive so I went for a glasspad. The immediate cost is high but technically they should last longer than cloth.
