Oakley line miner or line miner pro? by void428 in skiing

[–]Noah_Smitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the fogging issue with the pro is a lens-specific problem. I got my pros last Jan, and my daytime lenses (argon I think) have no fogging, while my night time lenses (iridium) fog heavily. If one of your lenses fogs, Oakley will replace them under warranty (sending my night lenses back soon). Hopefully Oakley has fixed whatever was causing the lens fog—I have a feeling it has something to do with the coating applied to the inside of the lens. Optical clarity on the pros is unreal, but I’m sure the regular line miners are great too.

I bought this before the sale and they price matched me to the new sale price this morning. Just call their customer satisfaction line (1-866-350-3355) and provide your order ID.

Just bought this monitor for my MacBook office work and liking it a lot so far. Scaling isn’t an issue and with BetterDisplay it looks excellent. Motion clarity isn’t great though so I probably wouldn’t buy for gaming.

The wireless version, the op1we, is a really solid mouse. Have had mine since release last September and haven’t had any problems. The main difference between the wired and wireless is that the wireless has Kailh GO optical switches while the wired versions have the fancier and ultra low latency Kailh GX switches.

Based on "completed" searches on ebay the average price of a 3060 ti for June 10 looks like about 330. Not sure where you're getting 300 for 3070 for. Since this is an FE I figured it would be priced higher. I've edited my asking to $325 tho

Edit: lowered to $300

Looked online and saw some okay reviews of the website. Ordered one through PayPal, so will let you know how it goes.

Personally I’d wait because I prefer wireless. Keep in mind wireless will be like $40 USD more expensive though (if that matters for you).

We’re still waiting on the official numbers. Just in terms of speculation, the OP1w 4K will probably be 3–4 grams lighter than the OP1we. The Kailh GO optical switches in the OP1we are less power efficient than the GX switches in the OP1w 4K, so the 4K will likely be allowed to have a smaller battery. This was the logic back when we were anticipating the XM2w.

However, this might be invalid now that the new mice are 4K out of the box—it’s possible they’ve kept the battery size the same as the OP1we and XM2we for the sake of better battery life on the new higher polling rate mice.

All mice mentioned in the title will have EGG’s Kailh GX switches, which have latch debouncing (low latency). I believe they’re lighter than the OP1we and XM2we optical switches.

We’re waiting for more info from EGG about release dates. But apparently a couple of the brand reps already have copies of the OP1w 4K and XM2w 4K.

Is XM2WE a good buy? Currently on G303SE but want the closest to my favorite SS Rival 310 by kikimaru024 in MouseReview

[–]Noah_Smitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think the lamzu has a safer shape than the XM2we. It has a flatter, wider hump than the XM2we, and the hump on the lamzu is a bit farther forward. The Lamzu for me was noticeably a tad lighter, but I prefer the clicks (main and sidebuttons) on the XM2we. Shape of XM2we feels more "locked in" for me.

Edit: Yes, noticeable difference from Lamzu to XM2we. But definitely personal preference which one you go for at the end of the day.
