    Oldschool Quaker here! I really like the fact that you correctly use the term "fingertip-grip", instead of mixing it up with the popular fingertip-palm-hybrids, since this distinction is important to make, no matter what grip you use. It makes no sense to go for one mouse or the other, when you do not reflect what parts of the hand you actually use or you touch your mouse with.
    In addition some people don't even realize how good a true fingertip-grip is, as you have much more room for fast and precise movements with solely your fingers, similar to using a pencil. I feel like a lot of people would swap to a pure fingertip-grip, if they just tried it seriously for some time, realizing all the benefits and how natural it feels. They just don't understand, yet - was the same with weight, shape and size - It took the industry almost 20 years to realize this, since their costumers did not care for so long.

      Hey Yosoy! I agree with you, fingertip grip just takes a bit of getting used to. What mouse do you use?

      @@Log_Pile I tried a lot of mice over the past 20 years, probably more than hundred. Starting with a Lachesis, but then stayed with and bought therefore multiple Abyssus (the old school shape from 2008, not the 2014 revamped) and used it until a few years ago.
      Then I made some experiments, as weightreduction, sidebuttons and a better sensor were a thing to compensate for me growing older. At some point I even used the R.A.T 1 mad catz without the additional frame, which is kinda insane and you should try it just for the luls if you can get one. It has an absolute shit cheap sensor, cable, switches - yet the shape is kind of bonkers in a good sense. Then I mainly used MM710, despite having more expensive mice sit on my shelves.
      After all these Years I only have 4 further mice on the list and I'm sure that the next lifetimekeeper will be under it:
      G-wolves HSK, Zaunkonig MK3-4, Finalmouse Ultralight X and OptimumTechs selfprinted mouse, has not a name yet, but his prototype is V34.
      edit. Check out the RAT1 without frame, just for the luls. It is essential just two buttons, but it works and I quess at some point also the user and industry will realize the potential, usually 10-15 years too late.

    My friend, the video is really very informative and helpful! I think people will definitely find a suitable mouse for themselves. The way you presented the information in a structured way is beyond praise, really everything is super. From myself, I can recommend the following things:
    1) The text that you are reading can be placed under the camera to create the illusion that you are looking almost at us, and not at the text, I think it will look better;
    2) Fragments with apex gameplay can be left without a camera so that there is no such strong cropping on the sides, or black stripes can be added at the top and bottom, but this way the models will look small and, for example, it will not be very convenient to look at the gameplay from a smartphone, therefore, in my opinion, gameplay fragments can be inserted without a camera.
    Also perhaps I would have made the background music just a little bit louder, but this is quite a matter of taste. I hope the comment was useful, good luck to you, see you in the comments for the next video 🤟😉

      Hey D1s! thank you for this, I spent a whole day trying to record this without a script and it ruined me! I will try what you suggest though, and see if my script being under the camera helps with this.
      You're also the 2nd person to mention the music being too quiet so I'll definitely look into this too.
      I will play around a bit more with the camera too, I dont need to be on screen all the time afterall! Thanks bro, I appreciate your time providing this feedback 🙌

    I really really wish more companies would make something like the HSK shape. 95% of the mice people recommend for fingertip grip aren't even close to the right shape. There's so much unnecessary empty space that they put on the back for no reason. I want to chop off the back 30% of almost every mouse people suggest. I feel like a lot of people think they're fingertip grippers, but are actually claw grippers who don't know it.

    You should also look into the Zaopin Z1 Pro if you want another fingertip choice. Razer Orochi v2 shape, 3395, MCU Nordic, 4khz compatible, 46-51g, Huano Blue Shell Pink Dot switches, TTC Gold scroll wheel. And all that's just for 43$ for the standard 200 mA battery version and 50$ for the one with the bigger 500 mA battery.

    I main the G-Wolf as my daily; your grip with it is a bit funky. I'll sugest why a more median grip is possibly of benifit; I grip the G-Wolf with my thumb at the buttons [essentially the end of my thumb nail bisects the two side buttons ] My pinky finger is directly opposite my thumbs pad creating an axis through the plane of the bottom sensor. My ring finger sits just above and forward of my little finger up to the side ledge. I explain all this to aid in explainging that for best aim you want to have your index and middle finger right next to the wheel and both side buttons easilly accesable with a thumb "roll". in this way your holding the mouse at its thinist and lowest points with complete awareness of the sensor giving you a lot of ingame dexterity. Moreover you wont find bad chicks which dont actuate if you click further back on the shell (this was happening to me when I was breakin the wolf in ). Not the only way to hold it by any messure - whatever works to be honest - just saying the far rear grip can have the down side of bad high front button clicks. GG. I also drive the Keychron M4 which is not quite as good as the wolf but its very close so id recomend it as a good alternative on price.

    Thanks bro,
    This video came out just in time for me as someone who is getting into finger-tip mice with the same hand size as you.
    I was debating between the HSK pro and the HTX pro. It's going to be a big jump from the G303 SE that I currently main, but I'm really leaning towards the HSK pro right now after hearing your opinions.
    I hope I'll see some positive gameplay improvements from it being a person that mainly plays Tac FPS's.

    • @Log_Pile
      @Log_Pile  Рік тому +2

      Hey Inkite, if you're a tac FPS player, you might be better served by the HTX that offers a similar experience with more stability?

    • @inkite
      @inkite Рік тому

      Yea, I was definitely thinking the HTX would be the safest option for my use case
      But I'm a little concerned that I might be bothered by the back hump impeding my ROM, cause that was the issue I had with Viper mini-esque shapes, I know it's not exactly a 1:1 clone with the VM but it's the closest experience I have to that sort of shape
      Could you touch on your experience with using the side buttons on the HSK and HTX? I'm a heavy side button user in most titles I play, and that's something that could definitely sway me one way or the other.
      And also if you experience any side play on M1/M2 on either of your copies

    Imo the range of motion benefit of HSK pro is kind of neglible and situational. But for me its really nice because I can have my fingers at the very tips of m1 & m2 with overhang, without it becoming a claw grip. If i want to grip Pulsar x2v2 that far forward it just turns into a clawgrip because my hands arent long enough. Nice video as always.

    What an amazing roundup of fingertip mice, I don't even want to imagine how much effort you put into this!
    Regarding your community post with constructive criticism, most of mine is just really nitpicky.
    With editing, I think the music could've been just a little louder, but especially the 2nd song I barely noticed because of the soft guitar. The "bell-type" instrument in the 1st song and the piano in the 3rd just came through a lot clearer than the guitar imo, however I'm not a sound engineer so take that with a grain of salt :)
    I also think a fixed ratio between the footage of you talking to the left and the footage of gameplay / mice to the right would make the video feel a lot more fluid, maybe like a 30/70 split like you had throughout most of the GPX section. And in case you'd have to cut the footage too much horizontally like perhaps at 4:17, maybe just transitioning to it taking up all the screen space would be better.
    Regarding the content itself, I really liked the way you structured the information, going from mouse to mouse and having a final recommendation section at the end. No complaints there!
    I hope this helps, keep up the great content logpile, really looking forward to see your channel grow :)

    The weight is also 15g above what I want for ultimate reaction/immersion/speed and unfortunately the brand has no news regarding an upgrade (maybe the sales are not that good).
    MZ1 shape is still my dream one however, doing claw and fingertip depending on the intensity of the aim and If I need extra stability.

On top of that I've been annoyed with the cable and the weight of the mouse so I'm now looking for a smaller lighter wireless mouse with wich I'm also able to try different grip types as that is something I want to Experiment with thats not possible with my current mouse.

    what do you think about the new final mouse ultralight x the small one. it claims that has the lowest latency.
    btw i was thinking on Xtrfy MZ1 Wireless, i like the shape and it has the under the wheel button that i used alot on the orichi v2 but then the ultralight came and im not sure if i keep using the hsk ace or switch.

      I'm no longer a fingertip gripper as the zowie EC1-CW was so comfy in claw/palm I made the switch, if i was a big fingertipper still, I'd definitely have gotten a ULX, as it stands though im not really interested, the QC appears to be an issue with the first batch too so id definitely wait for the next round to release before buying if i was you!
      The MZ1 is so good man, its just a bit heavy, and weight balancing feels wonky.
      You could probably pick up an MZ1 2nd hand very cheap these days, may be worth a try 🤔
      Also, if you have wide hands, the HTX may be pretty good for you too.

The keychron m4 is also pretty good 👍 they're very different experiences honestly, so if you want to, you could probably puck up the Keychron m4 too and not feel like you've got 2 of the same mice. The m4 is what I'm using right now, having a blast with it. Its more versatile than the HSK pro, in terms of how you can grip it. Solid mouse for the price.

    Would you recommend the HSK 4k Pro over the normal version? I find the price of the HSK 4k Pro to be way too high even though its a very unique design with a high poling rate. I currently play on an x2 mini which is 1k polling rate and I dont really feel any issues. Any noticeable advantages for 4k? I dont play FPS shooters like Valorant so I dont track a lot. I have heard that 4k is beneficial in tracking FPS games.

    • @Log_Pile
      @Log_Pile  Рік тому +1

      Great question! If you're not into 4k polling rate I'd definitely get the ace version, not only is ot chraper, its lighter too.
      Personally, with hkw poorly my favourite games are for 4k, I've never used it. So we find ourselves in the same camp.
      Other people i know and trust sing 4k's praises, but they have a much better understanding than me of how to optimise it and typically.tun higher refresh rates from what I've seen.
      The higher your screen refreshes (200+) the more noticeable 4k polling rate is.
      Hope that helps

      @balazsdinh1910 I am not personally that bothered by it, but I typically like to "plug and play" with my peripherals, 4k requires quite a bit of tinkering and I'm really not that bothered by it roght now. When I gwt a better PC, and can run games at hogher framerate i may take it more seriously, but for now I'm perfectly happy with 1k polling 👍 aimadapt did a good video on 4k polling you might want to check out if you havent seen it already

    i seem to perform best with a rear fingertip grip similar to what you are using at times in the vid, also a streamer called Lyr1c on apex uses a similar grip, the only downside is i like my mouse side buttons so quite often the front side button isnt easily accessible which is a shame, i tested the gpx super light, g703, viper v2 pro, pulsar xlite v2, g303, kone air and i currently use a g502/g502x wired, i like the 502 for single player stuff and when i transistioned from console to pc the extra buttons were helpful.
    I found my aim was most consistent with the viper v2 pro and the g303, the g303 i have never aimed so well but i couldnt access the front side button and i found it uncomfortable for long periods, the viper v2 i aimed really well with and i could just about access the front side button and i found it more comfortable.
    I used the amazon return policy but i am debating buying some mice on ebay for cheaper, was thinking of trying a mz1 wireless, x2 mini or lamzu atlantis mini, thoughts?

      Hey Mayhem, it sounds like you've been on a similar endgame journey to me!!
      Of the 2 mice I've tried on your list, if you move your grip a touch further forward on both the MZ1 or the X2 mini (possible with good grip tape), you can still get good range of motion and basically rest your thumb on the front and back mouse buttons. I guess the decision is yours between the 2, I personally would try to find a second hand MZ1 wireless - but depending on your preferences, an X2 mini is a really solid option too.

      Hey Jonah, great choice! I have the tiger ice skates for the viper mini installed currently. They fit quite well. Before that i threw on some tiger ice dots and they were fine too. I prefer the viper mini skates in case you were wondering - it helps balance out the light weight of the mouse by giving more feedback from the pad. Whereas the dots provide no feedback and super fast glide. all preference at the end of the day 🫡

    The other options are g-wolves hsk/htx (kinda uncertain if can trust this company too..), the lamzu mini (better for claw than fingertip but yeah) and the mz1 (kinda afraid of the shape 'cause I use a 1-1-3 fingertip grip).
