    Using XE ~70g mouse and for sure shape, grip width and button height more important at this range of weight. I can't use a smaller mouse and I definitely don't want a mouse with holes for few lower grams, heck most don't even seem to have reduced weight you'd expect, just seeing full shell that have around same or lower even. Good shape, full shell, further reduce weight as extra.
    So I'm all for going lower weight while retaining good shape and full shell, at least the visible side vs bottom.

    To me, it seems like the community is very divided between going tunnel vision on either lightweight mice or mice with focus on overall quality / general feel.
    Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference and what you'll feel better using / play better with. I think that as a company, if you make either a super lightweight mouse with okay quality, or a mouse that focuses on incredible quality, no matter what, the product will appeal to one demographic and get hate from the other. It's impossible to please everyone.
    For me, I prefer light weight over things like quality, so I buy mice and heavily mod them and take out every inch of plastic till its a creaking mess; but then I have a super light mouse, and that's my preference. I don't think I would enjoy a mouse like this over something like a lamzu atlantis.
    Despite that, I still see the appeal of something like this, or other mice from companies like vaxee, endgame, zowie, etc. who focus more on general quality and shape over light weight. It doesn't make sense to me that others with my preference will hate on these mice when they have a clear demographic. If they don't like the weight, they can rip out the plastic, or just not buy the mouse.

      The problem is that multiple companies have demonstrated that they can make lightweight mice that feel great in the hand. My X2V2 mini has no creaking or any other build issues while weighing about 10g less than the EGG mouse and being cheaper, for example.

    (tl;dr at bottom)
    the way i see it is that if you're using a tool that requires precision, it would be preferred if it is easier to control in use
    sure you could use a mouse that weighs 250 grams, but if you're playing fps games and will be doing large swipes with it then you have to put in more effort to stop the mouse where you want to
    more weight = more inertia, more force required to stop the mouse, newton's laws of motion, yada yada
    at some point, you need to find what weight works best for you to have the most control on your mouse
    also, side note, if you're using a heavy mouse and are using one for precision-related tasks, you could end up getting rsi; i knew a guy who's voltaic gm who used a g502 and ended up giving himself rsi
    tl;dr: lighter mice are generally easier to control, find a weight that allows you to be more precise with your mouse

    Super lightweight mice are fun and interesting but at the end of the day If I had to go pro, I'd be maining a close to 60g mouse with good battery life, coating, sensor and clicks like the VV3 Pro or GPX2, Zowie or Vaxee.

    Any enthusiast community can be a bit insane. There’s always a constant search for the next shiny thing, and also complaints about literally every product. That said, I’m currently using the Beast X (~40g), and I’m really happy with it. From this point of view, the idea of switching to a mouse that weighs over 60g seems a bit like going backwards. It's dumb, but it is hard to get interested. At the same time, I know it's all in my head. The majority of the world’s best players or aimers use the GPX or some variant of it... Mouse enthusiasts are a different breed.

    The problem here is - I think - that EGG is known as a company that loves advancing and loves pushing boundaries. People, including me, have high standards for EGG and there just isn't any good reason as to why this mouse has to weigh 62 grams.
    It's not that people can't manouver a 62g mouse, it's the fact that it'd have been so easy to improve it even further and it makes it feel like a half-assed release again or some relic from a time where EGG originally designed it.
    The GPX2 that is basically a year old has decent build structure and comes in at around ~55g if you just don't use the puck and remove the magnets.
    The VV3Pro which has reaaally good build structure comes in at even less. Even without any mod. And these are also mice that come with a good coating, crazy good performance and in case of the VV3Pro they are even bigger mice, so what here justifies these 62g? The xm2w 4k just offers nothing that makes this weight justifiable.
    Keep in mind this mouse has been awaited by many for years and considering the time they took to design it it's just a letdown.
    It's just hard to imagine you wouldn't be able to cut this down to 55g or even 50g or maybe even less if we look at the Maya X with a tiny bit of more thought put into it.
    This in combination with the fact that they still didn't fix the creaking on the frost units is just turning this into a disappointing release.
    Rare time I genuinely whole-heartedly disagree with you Boardzy.

    • @boardzy
      @boardzy  3 місяці тому +4

      I agree there should be high standards for endgame gear and creaking issues are unacceptable, but they haven't been known to push weight boundaries. The op18k is a 50g small wired mouse and the wireless version will weigh 60g. They have the wired XM2 8k at 52g which is worth noting, I don't feel 61g (on my scale) stock wireless for a quality build on a larger mouse is outdated.
      Comparing a warranty voiding GPX mod to a stock mouse is a bit unfair. The Atlantis with thinner plastic and bottom cutouts weighs 55g and nobody cares, but endgame gear chooses internal structure over a handful of grams and it's the end of the world. I generally agree with your comments/takes as well so I wanted to address this, I 100% believe if you got the mouse in hand you wouldn't care about the weight

    • @lightcore1
      @lightcore1 3 місяці тому +3

      @@boardzy I am actually personally using the XM2 8k as I don't mind the wire, but I'm trying to understand the POV of the people that do mind it. It just doesn't fit into the big picture if we compare it to the other options on the market.
      To be fair taking out the Puck is not warranty-voiding, I believe the puck is not even in the mouse when you open the box (maybe wrong on this) and even with the Puck that does nothing the GPX2 is still lighter and we are talking about a release that is just so old already and that's just completely dismissing the VV3Pro release.
      It's not like people are asking EGG to perform the "next step". It's just they wonder why their 2-years-in-the-making xm2w 4k doesn't even hold up to industry standards that got set by Razer - a brand that's not necessarily known to push the "enthusiast-scene" forward either...
      It's not the dealbreaker as some people make it out to be and I'm absolutely on your side when you say 62g is still worth playing on and by no means something that'd kill the mouse, but considering the other options on the market I just don't understand why anyone would choose to buy this xm2w 4k over any other recent release unless you REALLY love the shape and hate wires.
      It's easy to forget as someone who sees mice and mousepads as a hobby that the average consumer - even in our nieche scene - buys this product to use it - possible for a large time - and also decides for/against this on a budget. And I - personally - just don't see any real reason to buy this mouse. But I also don't hate wires, so what do I know...

    It doesn't help that this community has always been toxic to change.
    I'll throw an example; This whole pen thing, where people know and truly understand it's a niche, and that the tech is a bit too different and complicated for it to become a normie thing, though people choose to stand on this hill where as if one UA-camr or TikToker says something about it and that it's good, that's suddenly what needs to become a normalized thing.
    Not gonna lie, I do miss when China mice were on the peak edge of what they could be. I've seen so many companies come and go in the mouse market and some jump out, simply because of the silly behavior of the community.
    We used to have a TON of really good, unique, different, and interesting shapes come into the community. Now, we're at a standstill for like the umpteenth time again.
    I have to disagree with you on a few things, grip width and button height being lower and slimmer, I don't think it's always better, as categorizing things this way is simply just limiting.
    Everyone's going to perform different despite how a mouse is shaped. I think the whole button height and width thing is only a commonly spoken on thing strictly because it's what a majority of users prefer versus the people we often forget about.
    Hopefully we'll see change, hopefully we'll come a lot further and start seeing and implementing newer tech in the future rather than chasing a shape and a weight, as I think the mouse community can use more futurized technology in a lot of areas.
    Bless bro, you always put out good word though, thanks for the video.

    The lighter the weight the more control you have and takes less force to grip and use. Hence why enthusiasts in the gaming mouse market are into it. There's nothing wrong with more premium mice with better build quality. You kind of get what you pay for but at the same time not everyone wants to spend over $100 on a mouse. Especially if you buy one and you don't even get on the with shape or buttons.
