1 00:00:00,090 --> 00:00:05,170 - When I get a new product my favorite feeling is the disdain the owner 2 00:00:05,170 --> 00:00:08,388 has for me just flowing out of that product. 3 00:00:08,388 --> 00:00:12,050 (boxes thudding) That's how I feel holding Finalmouse products. 4 00:00:12,050 --> 00:00:15,290 Love 'em or hate 'em, Finalmouse makes some pretty neat products 5 00:00:15,290 --> 00:00:18,560 in very limited batches that are highly sought-after. 6 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,970 As far as I can tell, a lot of you hate 'em 7 00:00:21,970 --> 00:00:26,010 but let's get into it. I'm super excited. This is their latest special edition. 8 00:00:26,010 --> 00:00:29,800 It's already shipping, but if you didn't pre-order it, 9 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,340 like every piece of electronics that exist, 10 00:00:33,340 --> 00:00:38,620 you're not getting this. So, today we have the Starlight small 11 00:00:38,620 --> 00:00:44,420 and the Starlight medium. And I think what these mice really special is the design, 12 00:00:44,420 --> 00:00:47,610 with all these limited editions they've been doing, these are stunning mice. 13 00:00:47,610 --> 00:00:51,420 Like they're works of art, in a sense. And like, they're the kind of thing 14 00:00:51,420 --> 00:00:54,600 that I would have trouble using. I'd almost want to put on a stand, 15 00:00:54,600 --> 00:01:00,060 put it in the background of a stream or something 'cause these are beautiful and, holy smokes, it's light. 16 00:01:00,060 --> 00:01:03,760 I knew it was light, the small is rated for 42 grams. 17 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,010 The big one for 47. They say because of their process 18 00:01:07,010 --> 00:01:10,260 it could be plus minus one or two grams. 19 00:01:10,260 --> 00:01:14,360 Shocking how light this feels. It is nothing, it's disappearing. 20 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,680 Like if I looked away I would assume that there's nothing in my hand. 21 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,840 That's not true. It's still there. (laughing) Let's weigh it 'cause I need to know. 22 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,260 So, there's nothing out there that you can get that's quite this light, but I'd say the most comparable 23 00:01:26,260 --> 00:01:30,980 or certainly the one they're probably going for is the Logitech G Pro X Superlight. 24 00:01:30,980 --> 00:01:34,570 That's my gaming mouse of choice. I think the build quality's fantastic. 25 00:01:34,570 --> 00:01:38,570 The accuracy, the performance, all of it is phenomenal. 26 00:01:38,570 --> 00:01:42,380 It's Logitech, there's issues, in terms of like double-clicking and whatnot. 27 00:01:42,380 --> 00:01:45,513 But they have one of the best customer service in the business. 28 00:01:45,513 --> 00:01:48,870 So, it's pretty easy to RMA stuff. So, this is the small. 29 00:01:48,870 --> 00:01:54,240 So, they say that it's 42 grams. I've seen online that it's a little bit more usually, 30 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,000 but still 44 grams. That's wild. Just kidding. 31 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,270 We're going for the medium, 50 grams. That's still over what they say. 32 00:02:02,270 --> 00:02:06,093 Honestly, to me that's a little bit disappointing. The Superlight, it's 62? 33 00:02:07,646 --> 00:02:12,900 62, 63. The Superlight and the medium seem to be the more closer in size. 34 00:02:12,900 --> 00:02:17,540 So, I would say that they're comparable. I think that the small for small hands is great. 35 00:02:17,540 --> 00:02:20,600 If you're like a really aggressive claw player, 36 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:26,660 that might be the right fit. I'm more of a medium. I do kind of a hybrid thing where it's like not quite palm, 37 00:02:26,660 --> 00:02:31,500 not quite claw. And I think a lot of people do that. 'Cause I'm so excited but you'll have to wait 38 00:02:31,500 --> 00:02:36,530 till I talk about our sponsor, Secret Labs. Thanks to Secret Lab for sponsoring today's video. 39 00:02:36,530 --> 00:02:40,490 Secret Lab chairs are engineered to keep you incredibly comfortable for long hours 40 00:02:40,490 --> 00:02:43,700 at work and play.

Head to the link in the description below 44 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,590 to check out Secret Lab. In terms of build quality, how they achieve getting it 45 00:03:01,590 --> 00:03:05,350 so small, is actually like a magnesium for the top 46 00:03:05,350 --> 00:03:08,690 and the bottom as well. Although the bottom one is apparently quite a bit more 47 00:03:08,690 --> 00:03:12,100 fragile to shave down on the weight. In terms of like what you would feel, 48 00:03:12,100 --> 00:03:16,140 this doesn't feel metallic. Like when I read that it was magnesium, I thought it would kind of feel cold 49 00:03:16,140 --> 00:03:19,280 to the touch or something. That was kind of a big controversy where they said 50 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,820 that they invented the honeycomb mouse. They're the biggest inventors, 51 00:03:22,820 --> 00:03:28,390 they've done the biggest breakthrough in mouse design ever. And everyone's like, actually there's a been mice like that. 52 00:03:28,390 --> 00:03:32,030 I think light mice are the way to go. I think light takes less energy to move the mouse. 53 00:03:32,030 --> 00:03:35,420 So, your endurance is better. You can get there fast. You can be more consistent. 54 00:03:35,420 --> 00:03:39,500 For me, the danger of like spilling food or drink 55 00:03:39,500 --> 00:03:42,560 or just greasy hands, ruining my mouse. That's scary. 56 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:47,020 This isn't the first Starlight mouse. This is the Phantom, which is this color scheme. 57 00:03:47,020 --> 00:03:50,130 And they've done a lot of different ones. They have like a Hades and Ares, like kind of god-theme ones. 58 00:03:50,130 --> 00:03:54,310 And they're all really beautiful, just stunning. And I think like, side by side, it'd be cool. 59 00:03:54,310 --> 00:03:58,860 I wish I had started collecting them, but, you know, you can only collect one thing in this day and age. 60 00:03:58,860 --> 00:04:02,410 And I collect the smiles of viewers watching this video. 61 00:04:02,410 --> 00:04:06,270 - [Jono] Pokemon cards. - Nope. (chuckles) That's expensive. (chuckles) 62 00:04:06,270 --> 00:04:10,050 It's got its PTFE feet. They're pretty small and it doesn't come 63 00:04:10,050 --> 00:04:13,920 with changes of them. It feels pretty smooth. Not as smooth as the Superlight, 64 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,220 especially if you put the glide pad on the bottom. 65 00:04:17,220 --> 00:04:20,300 One thing that you'll notice is that there is no spot 66 00:04:20,300 --> 00:04:24,110 to remove to put the wireless receiver. I think that's a mistake. 67 00:04:24,110 --> 00:04:27,680 I'll take the five grams to get that spot right in there. 68 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,070 I think that every mouse that is wireless needs to have a spot to put its wireless receiver in. 69 00:04:33,070 --> 00:04:36,730 This is this one. And in fact, we should probably get back to unboxing all the other stuff. 70 00:04:36,730 --> 00:04:39,930 It's a little bit bigger than a normal one, which is nice. 71 00:04:39,930 --> 00:04:44,970 A little less, the chance of losing it. Remaining, what's else in the box is the receiver, 72 00:04:44,970 --> 00:04:49,080 the mouse and this pair cord cable. Wow, that feels fantastic. 73 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,410 Ooh. Yeah. 74 00:04:52,410 --> 00:04:56,020 Oh, I feel so fancy. This is a good quality cable. 75 00:04:56,020 --> 00:04:59,020 Wow, I got no complaints about this, except for this. 76 00:04:59,020 --> 00:05:02,880 You see this? Micro USB. 77 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,400 I understand that the connector in the mouse for micro USB is lighter than the USB Type-C one. 78 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,020 Like I said, I'm willing to take a few grams to get Type-C. 79 00:05:12,020 --> 00:05:16,240 I'm so sick of anything being other than Type-C for USB. 80 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,340 We are way past that point. Good cable, bad connector. 81 00:05:19,340 --> 00:05:22,360 Get it together, Finalmouse. Get it (beep) together. 82 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,890 That's the future. Oops, I need that cable. Sorry. When these mice were first coming out 83 00:05:26,890 --> 00:05:31,320 there was quite a few issues of build quality. Inconsistencies where like the scroll wheel 84 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:37,930 was actually kind of slightly off-centered. I wouldn't say that it's spot on, it looks a little bit leaned to the left, but it's not bad. 85 00:05:37,930 --> 00:05:44,260 And like I'm only looking for that 'cause I've seen that online. There was also issues of some of the pads in the mouse 86 00:05:44,260 --> 00:05:49,890 sliding and becoming sticky. The PCB is more secured in they've pretensioned the button 87 00:05:49,890 --> 00:05:54,170 so that they feel a little more clicky and light. And I say that those buttons do feel pretty good. 88 00:05:54,170 --> 00:05:58,700 Scroll wheel feels good. It's a little bit, I kind of think it's a little too resistant 89 00:05:58,700 --> 00:06:03,100 but that's a preference thing. Side buttons, those feel fine. 90 00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:06,240 I think they're a little bit small. I can definitely see in the heat of battle 91 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,680 I would double press or press both. I prefer my buttons a little more spaced out 92 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,470 than what is on this mouse. The button I really don't like is this DPI one. 93 00:06:15,470 --> 00:06:19,310 It's kind of just like, it feels like when you've had a controller 94 00:06:19,310 --> 00:06:23,990 for like seven years and you didn't realize that some juice got into the buttons, 95 00:06:23,990 --> 00:06:28,780 takes a couple presses before it like kind of gets soft again. 96 00:06:28,780 --> 00:06:32,500 A big complaint about this mouse is that there is no companion software. 97 00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:36,193 That's fine. You don't really need to be able to customize everything on your mouse. 98 00:06:36,193 --> 00:06:39,290 So, the final sensor, it's considered a flawless sensor 99 00:06:39,290 --> 00:06:44,500 and it's highly rated, it's well regarded. It's got sensitivity up to 20,000 DPI, 100 00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:48,610 but this bad boy, you only have the pre-built 101 00:06:48,610 --> 00:06:53,040 for sensitivity options. So, 400, 800, 1600 and 3200. 102 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,730 That's fine for most things. For me, I always play at 800 unless a specific game 103 00:06:56,730 --> 00:07:01,340 requires something else. So, that's fine. But if you're someone that like really does tweak 104 00:07:01,340 --> 00:07:05,740 with the settings and has a weird sensitivity thing for a specific esports game that you play, 105 00:07:05,740 --> 00:07:09,020 just keep that in mind. You're stuck at those base settings. 106 00:07:09,020 --> 00:07:13,600 Battery life on this mouse is supposed to be quite excellent. They say that it's about 160 hours of use. 107 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,220 So, they say that it's like three weeks of heavy use, seven weeks of kind of softer use, 108 00:07:17,220 --> 00:07:21,070 16 weeks of like idle. We are set up now, currently plugged in 109 00:07:21,070 --> 00:07:25,610 is the Starlight small. We had to switch our G Pro X Superlight 110 00:07:25,610 --> 00:07:31,960 just because the one we were having was having pairing issues. So, you'll now see that it is 100% less pride, sadly. 111 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:36,410 And I've added the light foot pad version at the bottom 'cause that's what I use at home. 112 00:07:36,410 --> 00:07:39,730 It really does make it smoother. At least in my brain, 113 00:07:39,730 --> 00:07:44,530 my smooth brain. (chuckles) First impression is, wow, this is light. 114 00:07:44,530 --> 00:07:47,890 The small one is a little bit too small for me. I find my pinky just ends up dragging. 115 00:07:47,890 --> 00:07:52,979 That's not a good feeling for gaming. I want to kind of like have it part of the hold. 116 00:07:52,979 --> 00:07:57,300 - [Jono] You're the big spoon. - I'm, oh yeah, I'm the real big spoon. 117 00:07:57,300 --> 00:08:01,290 I love you, mouse. (chuckles) You know what? It's "ShortCircuit," we ain't got time for that. 118 00:08:01,290 --> 00:08:04,730 Small one, too small for me. Too small, 119 00:08:04,730 --> 00:08:07,980 mouse. So, we're actually gonna start first with the G Pro X, 120 00:08:07,980 --> 00:08:11,030 which is my baseline, but I don't play a lot of CS:GO. 121 00:08:11,030 --> 00:08:15,330 So, I need a little bit of practice to see how that feels, 122 00:08:15,330 --> 00:08:20,430 also to find my sense with this mouse. Okay, so this feels very comfortable to me. 123 00:08:20,430 --> 00:08:24,220 It's light. It's easy. It's just accurate. 124 00:08:24,220 --> 00:08:28,870 It's just like, it feels like an extension of my body in a good way, although I'm terrible at CS:GO. 125 00:08:28,870 --> 00:08:33,530 So yeah, this is feeling pretty good. Let's compare it to the Starlight. 126 00:08:33,530 --> 00:08:38,280 So, one thing that I don't love, little nitpick, 127 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,653 is the power button is a little dip switch, which is fine or not. 128 00:08:41,653 --> 00:08:45,760 I don't know if it's a dip switch but it doesn't really have a label to which one's on or off. 129 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,720 I don't know if it's my mouse that's dead 130 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,030 or if I'm having the wrong thing or if this isn't working 131 00:08:54,030 --> 00:08:58,120 but that's not a great experience. One of the problems about not having companion software, 132 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,760 with the launch tech, we were having trouble but we were able to fairly easily diagnose 133 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:07,940 where the problem was coming from and then solve it. Here, it's just like, is it the battery that's dead? 134 00:09:07,940 --> 00:09:13,770 Is it the mouse receiver that's not working? 'Cause when I plug in the cable, it'll work. 135 00:09:13,770 --> 00:09:18,420 And so I know that everything's gonna be all right 136 00:09:18,420 --> 00:09:23,730 but I'm gonna cry first. There you go, it's working. So, I don't know if it just was a charge issue 137 00:09:23,730 --> 00:09:27,270 or what it was. Speaking of software, no RGB either. 138 00:09:27,270 --> 00:09:31,590 That's totally fine for me, on a gaming mouse, I would disable it 'cause I want the extra battery instead. 139 00:09:31,590 --> 00:09:35,760 The fact that I am reminded of the fact that I don't care that there's no RBG. 140 00:09:36,700 --> 00:09:41,160 The point, (chuckling) I guess it's the flex. It's the fun of it. 141 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,010 It's the collectibility of them. And I think like that's, to me, is a big use case 142 00:09:45,010 --> 00:09:49,900 of this is you could buy the whole set and have a beautiful background in your stream. 143 00:09:49,900 --> 00:09:56,330 You could just enjoy the collecting. Maybe the resale value is good. You just buy them and then resell 'em for 25% more 144 00:09:56,330 --> 00:10:02,790 than you bought it for. You dirty-ass scalper. But to me, like I am not that interested in 145 00:10:02,790 --> 00:10:06,840 a beautiful mouse, I'm more interested in the usability, and the usability is also there. 146 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:11,190 I don't know if I like it more than the G Pro X. I don't even know if I like it more than the Viper Ultimate. 147 00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:14,900 The accuracy is good. It's a flawless sensor and I've mostly dialed 148 00:10:14,900 --> 00:10:18,940 in my settings on my other mouse so I can trust that this feels pretty good. 149 00:10:18,940 --> 00:10:24,100 A big thing that was happening early on is that people were complaining about the DPIs they were advertising. 150 00:10:24,100 --> 00:10:29,540 They were actually off what they normally are. And so they've said on this revision, they've fixed it. 151 00:10:29,540 --> 00:10:33,150 And they've gotten it closer to what people expect when they're getting that kind of DPI. 152 00:10:33,150 --> 00:10:36,270 This doesn't feel as bad as, I'm guessing, what people first thought 153 00:10:36,270 --> 00:10:39,610 but, oh hello, oh God, that's a scout. 154 00:10:39,610 --> 00:10:42,983 Nope, not an op. (laughing) Oops. 155 00:10:42,983 --> 00:10:47,500 Would I recommend this mouse if you are a gamer that wants the best gaming mouse? 156 00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:51,340 Not necessarily. You might find that this ambidextrous shape is what appeals to you. 157 00:10:51,340 --> 00:10:56,250 You'll like the crazy lightness of it. I think the real appeal is how it looks. 158 00:10:56,250 --> 00:11:00,160 It's the special limited edition appeal of it. 159 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,710 And so if that appeals to you, then this is a cool mouse. I think like the different color ways, 160 00:11:04,710 --> 00:11:07,720 they're pretty sick and you can wait for the next one, if you like that more. 161 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:12,250 I'd really like the white version, the full white. I don't like white mice, but the detailing on the white 162 00:11:12,250 --> 00:11:15,640 just looks really good. The way it catches the light. This is a cool product. 163 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,730 I'm glad it exists. It's not for me. It's probably not for you. 164 00:11:18,730 --> 00:11:24,766 I know people complain when we review a hundred dollar mice, this bad boy's $189 US. 165 00:11:24,766 --> 00:11:29,850 - [Jono] How much is the Superlight? - 150 US, I believe. But you can get a regular G Pro for like 130. 166 00:11:29,850 --> 00:11:33,900 You can get (chuckles) like the Viper for cheaper. 167 00:11:33,900 --> 00:11:37,560 You can get the SteelSeries Aerox 3 or whatever it is. 168 00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:41,060 That's an excellent mouse for cheap. There's lots of better options, 169 00:11:41,060 --> 00:11:46,050 if you're worried about a buck. If you just want the frigging most swaggiest of mice, 170 00:11:46,050 --> 00:11:49,990 if you're a sneakerhead equivalent of Mouse Town, 171 00:11:49,990 --> 00:11:53,729 this is your boy, but you won't find it. That's what I'm saying. It's like Sneaker Town, where it's like, 172 00:11:53,729 --> 00:11:57,460 you just gotta wait in line at the Nike store and buy this boy, boy. 173 00:11:57,460 --> 00:12:00,880 - [Jono] You can't even wait in line for this mouse. - I know it's over. Just like this video. 174 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,220 Thank you for watching this "ShortCircuit."
