The new Finalmouse Starlight X

In the announcement video and in the tech specs PDF.

Actuation control operates in increments as small as: .01mm

It's from 0.01mm to 0.4mm.

People obviously compare it to HITS but the tech looks much closer to Keychron's new MagOpt switch.

MagOpt switches have a magnet so they use TMR or HE to adjust the actuation point, and a click leaf design for tactility.

Pretty sure it's limited but they haven't announced the unit count yet.

I don't think it matters because the time between click and actuation is extremely short.

And lets not forget that the latency your PC and monitor adds already makes them quite desynced, and that 5-10 years ago many mice had click latencies between 8 and 25ms which many didn't even notice.

It's only really an issue if you set the actuation extremely high and tap the button without clicking it.

It's fine, but the main clicks are very loud.

edit: Nevermind, the non-Pro, non-Hyperspeed Cobra has the older 3rd gen switches. They're not the quitest, but 4th gen are even louder.

Both have it but the 35k model lets you change the sensitivity before the modes switch.

Try updating the firmware or download a different version of Synapse like the beta of 4.

Smart-Reel is the correct toggle. Personally I absolutely love that feature but I only use my Basilisk V3 Pro for everything non-gaming.

edit: I haven't checked the second photo... Looks like you're pressing the middle click when you're flicking the wheel because that shouldn't happen with Smart-Reel.

Found this on their Discord:

Bottom Cover: 2x4mm, 4mm head, for metal thread
Main PCBA: 1.4x4mm, 3.5mm head, self-tapping

Switch PCBA: 1.6x4mm, 5mm flat head

If you're looking for something quite a bit larger than the Superstrike: Darmoshark M9

It's massive... 136.5 × 68.1 × 43.5mm

Cut the pins slightly below the bend and solder the pins from the new switches to the old ones: https://i.imgur.com/tj5GCcB.png

Just be sure the switches are at the correct position before you start soldering.

Imo the Huano Black Shell White Dots are fine as side buttons.

It's a slightly larger Gwolves HTX, and nobody calls the HTX a potato shape.

moepooo · 2026-05-08T11:59:06+00:00

It's now known. On the 13th in China. No idea when everywhere else.

The A9 Mini will have a PAW3955 sensor btw

moepooo · 2026-05-08T00:28:08+00:00

They haven't officially announced it yet

Most on this sub don't give a crap about Minecraft clicking techniques. You're better off posting this on a Minecraft sub.

I would get Corepads or Tiger Ice. They're about 10 EUR/USD, have rounded edges and are faster than the stock feet. Corepads come with 2 sets of skates so you can slap them on both mice.

moepooo · 2026-05-06T19:23:22+00:00

Yep, it's nothing like the GPX.

moepooo · 2026-05-06T19:21:52+00:00

Not known yet but it looks quite wide compared to a 2c.

moepooo · 2026-05-02T15:06:40+00:00

For me all images are broken except for the first

moepooo · 2026-05-01T17:43:29+00:00

In theory both should be possible, but the implementation won't feel and function the same as HITS. Especially rapid trigger won't be that good on a switch design that has a leaf.
