00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:13.639
welcome to my unboxing of the Rat savu this is a midsize hybrid gaming mouse

00:00:11.840 --> 00:00:18.000
which I'm not exactly sure what hybrid means but I guess we'll get to that

00:00:15.719 --> 00:00:23.640
later Pro optic sensor so this is using an optical sensor not a laser sensor but

00:00:20.240 --> 00:00:25.000
still capable of 4,000 DPI the DPI is

00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:28.000
honestly it's more of a factor if you're running a very high resolution screen or

00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:32.079
like a multim monitor setup than anything else um because Beyond that

00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:37.399
really the the the accuracy of the tracking is more important than the DPI

00:00:34.440 --> 00:00:42.039
okay button duplicator easy shift plus okay we'll figure out what that is

00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:44.200
later customizable lighting multicolor so you can change the lighting to

00:00:43.120 --> 00:00:48.800
whatever color you want I guess that's what the rainbow here means no sweat

00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:53.039
side grips excellent rat driver and macro presets for games multimedia and

00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:57.079
apps 5 plus two buttons 12 functions via easy shift a okay that sounds kind of

00:00:55.160 --> 00:01:00.519
neat high quality components for solid build for long life okay Optical sensor

00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:04.680
12 Mouse functions rat easy shift ultr light light system drivers and macros

00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:08.520
let's go ahead and open this bad boy up because rat is starting to get a lot of

00:01:06.880 --> 00:01:13.640
attention in North America they hadn't really been present here before but they

00:01:11.479 --> 00:01:19.960
are now and people are really talking about it so let's find out what all of

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:23.680
the fusses about Optimum midsize design

00:01:19.960 --> 00:01:26.320
with perfectly balanced weight I do

00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:31.600
appreciate having adjustable weight on mice but I understand that that's not

00:01:28.720 --> 00:01:35.920
everyone's preference and and while I okay okay I should disclaim that because

00:01:33.240 --> 00:01:39.799
while I said I do like to have adjustable weight my actual favorite

00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:44.000
Mouse does not have adjustable weight so my second favorite mouse ever is the G9

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:48.880
and I haven't tried the g9x so I don't I don't know but it's probably more of the

00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:50.600
same and it's good um but my favorite

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:54.560
Mouse is actually the steel series aari laser which is not weight adjustable so

00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:58.240
let's go ahead and have a look at the Aesthetics of the mouse so this is

00:01:56.119 --> 00:02:01.920
excellent grip material on the side here you can tell right away it's basically

00:02:00.039 --> 00:02:06.640
like sandpaper but not uncomfortable it's like rubber sandpaper so you'll

00:02:04.240 --> 00:02:11.440
have what it allows is for the sweat to sit in between the uh the bumps so you

00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:14.959
can still maintain grip on it and uh it's not absorbent at all but it should

00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:21.239
be pretty durable as well it doesn't feel like the kind of thing that you could just scratch off easily in terms

00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:24.080
of mouse buttons you've got two here so there's your backs and forwards you've

00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:28.120
got your left and right click you got your middle click and let's find out

00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:35.040
what easy shift is this is my at ID card it should be

00:02:31.920 --> 00:02:36.640
noted that it is not valid unless signed

00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:41.440
and needs an authorized signature also this card is the property of rockat

00:02:38.239 --> 00:02:43.239
Studios misuse is a criminal offense

00:02:41.440 --> 00:02:47.120
really this is not a valid means of payment okay this be new register your

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:52.080
personal ID using this card on our website so I am going to take this and

00:02:50.200 --> 00:02:56.720
I'm going to put this in my wallet right now because oh no my wallet's full of

00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.200
things like credit cards and identification okay I guess I'll file

00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:05.040
that somewhere else okay okay moving right along easy shift actually kind of

00:03:03.080 --> 00:03:08.560
cool so what it does here these are all the default assignments however once you

00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:12.040
install the software you can change them so here I'm going to demo on the mouse

00:03:09.920 --> 00:03:18.120
itself rather than so left click right click okay this is the easy shift button

00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:23.360
so here check this out browser forward

00:03:19.720 --> 00:03:27.080
shift browser back okay so scroll up

00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:29.959
scroll down shift volume up volume down

00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:33.959
so basically shift allows you to to press this and then press any of these

00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:37.720
other buttons for different functionality so they give you a map of

00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:41.360
the default assignments with no driver installed but you can install the driver

00:03:39.720 --> 00:03:44.400
and you can change everything you want they also give you some examples of what

00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:49.360
you might want to do and for example Counter Strike or wow or multimedia or

00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:53.319
browser or whatever else the case may be kind of neat I think it would take a

00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:57.400
little while to get used to but once you do you could actually effectively have

00:03:55.760 --> 00:04:02.159
far more buttons on your mouse than you than you actually have which is sort of

00:03:59.879 --> 00:04:08.040
neat okay so the sensor can deliver 400 800600 or 4,000 DPI optimized tracking

00:04:05.920 --> 00:04:10.680
that fits any style also has an ultra 2D incremental step wheel for perfect

00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:15.400
control during weapon changes and other critical decisions let's

00:04:12.920 --> 00:04:19.560
see yeah feels pretty solid okay I'm down high quality build ah yes more

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:24.479
German engineering excellent so this goes along with our theme of German

00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:30.280
engineering in on our unboxings today which included the be quiet! dark power

00:04:28.280 --> 00:04:36.360
dark Power Pro power supply and my

00:04:32.479 --> 00:04:37.600
rabbit German engineering okay let's

00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:42.919
have a look at the mouse itself physically so you got your slippy pads on the front and the back you got your

00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:46.160
Optical sensor right there in terms of the size they're calling this a midsize

00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:50.840
Mouse I'd say this is more on the smaller side I have pretty small hands

00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:55.160
and this is a very very comfortable size for me uh in terms of the grip I'd say

00:04:52.919 --> 00:04:58.800
it's somewhere between you can Palm it if you want but what you'll find is I

00:04:57.160 --> 00:05:03.000
think your pinky will fall off a little bit so you might want want to uh claw it

00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:05.759
and I don't think it's really suitable for fingertip although you could

00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:10.520
probably do it cuz it's got enough of a contour here and enough of a contour here that you could probably get away

00:05:08.520 --> 00:05:15.919
with it uh but I'd say this is more of a claw grip than anything else um in terms

00:05:13.320 --> 00:05:20.880
of how it's most naturally used the top is is a little bit more smooth but still

00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:25.080
grippy compared to the sides where it's more like that sandpaper finish and the

00:05:22.919 --> 00:05:28.759
overall Comfort is pretty good actually like I'm I'm liking it I don't quite

00:05:27.479 --> 00:05:33.840
like the positioning of these I wish they were a little bit lower but

00:05:31.520 --> 00:05:37.280
um they're still once you actually put it down they're very reachable and it's

00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:40.479
not going to interfere with your ability to use the mouse otherwise even if

00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:44.039
you're holding down one of them as a shift so I think that pretty much covers

00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:48.680
it you know we should plug it in and check out the lighting effects actually

00:05:46.080 --> 00:05:51.680
just to see I think it's Blue by default let's just plug this in there you go

00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:56.759
actually I'm going to go turn off the light so that you can here we'll put it

00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:59.120
next to the Corsair M60 so you can see

00:05:56.759 --> 00:06:03.280
what a mouse with lighting effects looks like compared to a mouse without

00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:06.919
lighting effects if you aren't already aware of what a mouse with lighting

00:06:05.280 --> 00:06:09.720
effects looks like oh it's kind of neat so in the driver you should be able to

00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:12.759
configure things like the colors pulsation and all that good stuff so

00:06:11.479 --> 00:06:16.599
