Thanks for making the video of differences between the old and new Cyborg. I never heard anyone mention the small size difference in buttons as the new one looks easier to hit as it has more surface area. Also about the pre and post travel. Looks like the Cyborg 2 is a little quicker in the heat of battle. Good points.
Agreed not a lot of info out there for these but I think this is what I need and the helpful information makes my decision easier lol I just don’t like the price 😢
I'm new both to the Cyborgs and here. Very informative. Thank you. I'll be saving up for the 2, as well as chair mounts. Mainly will be for X4 Foundations, possibly Space Engineers too. Thanks again for the video. I look forward to more of your channel. o7
I dont want to be that guy but DPI and polling rate are 2 different metrics. DPI usually refers to a resolution where it also gets its name from (dots per inch) while polling rate refers to how often the USB controller polls the USB device for new data. You can have all the polling rate you want but the important part is that the USB device can theoretically also have enough data changes (often refered to as scanrate for keyboards). There can be a benefit to having an internal scanrate of 1000Hz and a polling rate of 8000Hz for example but thats mainly to keep the standard deviation small between received data and press which mainly matters on high end gaming equipment not so much on ergonomical keyboards without a heavy focus on purely gaming.
@@isaacdeleon4898 id say the best would be 8kHz polling rate with 2-4kHz internal scanrate. 8kHz internal is often quite hard to keep stable and going from 0.125ms to 0.25ms (or 0.5ms) isnt all too bad. in general everything above and including 1kHz is 1ms or faster internally which is great. This goes for any game really that is competitive in a way.
Have the Cyborg 1 now--my issue is with the tower switches and my fingers (middle, ring, pinky). When I try to lift those any of those 3 fingers, the other 2 lift and sometimes trigger a mis-click. I'm wondering if the Cyborg 2's knuckle buttons is better or if the Cyborg 2 Compact would be a better option.
On the cyborg 1, the 4 finger buttons that’s are lowest and parallel to the desk are harder to click than the rest of the buttons. Is this the same on your cyborg 1? What about the cyborg 2?
TY for this video, I have a Cyborg 1, but my cats rubbed against one of the upper keys so much, he's snapped it off its hinge. Still tossing between supergluing it in place or getting the new one... this video made it harder (but am more informed)
these devices are 3d printed. I would look for a replacement trigger instead of purchasing a whole new unit, unless you just wanted a reason to upgrade. Haha. I would email them and see if they can send you out the key that you had broken.

Cheers. I spent ages looking at everything and there are a fair few small, subtle but none the less important changes

Very excited to get this soon. I’ve been looking for a more reliable razer alternative.
Hey, great video. Keep up the good work. You gained a subscriber. 👍

Yet here we are 😂
Seriously though. Thanks for the input.
@@MainCave No problem. otherwise great video and keep up the work.
Thank you for sharing Big Brain. Now just to be on the same side which of the two will be best for competitive gaming like Fortnite ? Thanks

Hi there. The cyborg 1 it is slightly harder to press but I’d struggle to tell the difference in pressure between them all on the 2

Any excuse to buy a new one surely? Get ordering 😂
Seriously though, you won’t regret the upgrade.

Also, how does anyone use these devices?! I had a stroke just looking at this video 🥴
IKR, as in my last video on it. It takes some muscle memory. In fact A LOT of muscle memory. It’s hard work, but pays off
