1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:07,839
finally someone is trying something new in the gaming mouse space

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:11,120
this might be the most interested i've

3
00:00:07,839 --> 00:00:14,719
been in trying a new product in a

4
00:00:11,120 --> 00:00:16,800
long time this is the era one gaming

5
00:00:14,719 --> 00:00:22,160
mouse it's not even a real product yet it's just on kickstarter but the whole

6
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:27,920
resonate is just this simple innovation let's uh take the sensor from down here

7
00:00:25,599 --> 00:00:33,040
and put it up here let's find out if that does anything full disclosure this

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:37,280
is a prototype so we can't give full impressions on like the build quality

9
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:41,840
and whatnot but this is a near final shape so this is going to give us a good

10
00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:44,239
idea of what the final product would be

11
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:48,960
it's a 3d printed body but it's not the worst 3d print i've ever felt this

12
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:52,719
unfortunately is a wired mouse which is a bit of a bummer because i generally

13
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:57,199
prefer wireless mice but the benefit of that is that this is a very light mouse

14
00:00:54,960 --> 00:01:01,520
this is a 60 gram mouse which is lighter than a g pro x super light and even a

15
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:06,000
little bit lighter than a model d minus which is my preferred wired mouse the

16
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:10,080
feeling in the hand is not bad it's a little chunky in the sides in the photos

17
00:01:08,320 --> 00:01:13,680
it looked tiny and i assumed from the weight it was one of those like claw

18
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,799
only finger grips it is a little bit short but my palm rests fairly

19
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:21,200
comfortably on this and then kind of claws naturally around the mouse they

20
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:25,600
say it's designed for both fingertip and claw not like palming yeah you'd have a

21
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,960
bad time just like going full palm but it doesn't feel

22
00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:33,119
uncomfortable it's not my preferred shape i think i want a little bit more

23
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:37,520
on the caboose i mean i'm all about that mouse base no no trouble

24
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:41,360
this is close to the final shape but they intend to raise the steepness of

25
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:44,720
the fingertips and bring in the sides of it i think bringing the sides is really

26
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:48,159
important it feels pretty wide i'm having a hard time getting my fourth and

27
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:52,479
fifth finger and thumb to feel particularly comfortable i find the

28
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:57,040
mouse wheel is like kind of a little far forward and clicking it i would have a

29
00:01:54,479 --> 00:02:00,320
hard time clicking it without rolling it a little bit the side buttons feel

30
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:04,719
pretty good although they are sort of indented into the side as soon as you

31
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:09,360
press them they sort of disappear i don't want to go too hard into it it's a

32
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:13,599
prototype it is what it is i think they did make a really good choice using the

33
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:17,760
kale 8.0 switches they're rated for 80 million clicks i know a lot of people

34
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:20,480
put those in as aftermarket switches in their mice because they prefer that

35
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:27,680
feeling it also is nice to know that it'd be really easy to switch out for your preferred switch it's got ptfe feet

36
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:31,200
for smooth gliding they definitely feel a little bit thin i'm used to them

37
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:35,840
having a little bit of a roundness it's not bad prototype you know

38
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:40,160
type as this is a prototype we're gonna focus on the main innovation of this

39
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:44,160
mouse which is moving the sensor up all the way to the top intuitively that

40
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,599
makes a lot of sense you think about how you hold a mouse if you have the sensor

41
00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:50,959
down here moving the same amount it's moving less distance and you have less

42
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:54,480
precision than if it's at the front like with your hand all of a sudden you're

43
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:58,400
moving the sensor a lot and those micro adjustments all of a sudden you have all

44
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:02,959
this extra range of motion you can see how moving it up would give you a lot

45
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:06,640
more control i'm really excited to plug

46
00:03:02,959 --> 00:03:08,239
this in and see my fear is by design all

47
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:12,720
of a sudden the weight is going to creep forward i like pretty balanced mice you

48
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:16,480
know front and back weight i know on a wireless mouse you can move the battery

49
00:03:14,879 --> 00:03:20,000
back you know counteract and you can still have pcb and stuff further back

50
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:22,560
but on a wired mouse i'm a little bit worried that it's just always going to

51
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:26,480
feel a little front heavy and which would take away from the mobility and

52
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,760
then reduce the advantage you gain from moving the sensor up anyway but we'll

53
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:35,360
get to that you know we'll get to that when we get to it i'm worried that it might be one of those products that if

54
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,000
you used it for a week or a month it would start to click and you just get a

55
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:42,159
little more precision but as someone who has my settings pretty dialed in we'll

56
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,959
see how much this throws it off i think what i'm going to do is i'm going to

57
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:48,640
plug it in use the settings that i'm used to see how that feels and then

58
00:03:46,799 --> 00:03:52,000
maybe just tweak them a little bit maybe decrease the sensitivity as i'm gonna be

59
00:03:50,319 --> 00:03:57,280
moving a little bit wilder the whole principle according to these kickstarter

60
00:03:54,640 --> 00:04:01,280
pages that it is fits law uh which is like if you move stuff further away from

61
00:03:58,799 --> 00:04:06,720
the point of motion it moves but there's like lots of numbers and lots of crazy

62
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:11,200
who knows i feel ready to plug this in see how it

63
00:04:08,799 --> 00:04:15,760
feels talk about the sensor but first let's talk about our sponsor you green

64
00:04:13,599 --> 00:04:20,400
you green's new nexo mini 45 watt charger packs a punch with a small

65
00:04:17,359 --> 00:04:22,079
footprint of 2.62 cubic inches it's a

66
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:26,800
hard sentence to say rocking dual usb type-c ports eugreen's

67
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:30,880
charger can charge two devices at high speeds simultaneously supporting a

68
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:35,919
maximum charging power of 45 watts coming in sleek black finish you'll pack

69
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:39,520
power in style learn more at the link in the description below let's speak about

70
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:42,400
the cable a little bit the cable is feels really good it's a paracord

71
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:46,160
surrounding this exterior it's got that loose feel so it doesn't drag as much

72
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:49,840
this is like my ideal type of cable for this thing you can tell this mouse was

73
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:53,759
designed by someone who thinks about what a mouse should be

74
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:58,160
it's just wired mice are such a bummer unless you are set up for it and have a

75
00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:01,520
bungee you're always gonna just like gonna be trying to do a flick or

76
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:05,680
something and it's gonna drag this is as good of an implementation as you can do

77
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:08,960
and as it is one person making this i totally understand

78
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:12,639
but uh i'm crying a little bit on the inside i

79
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:17,039
forgot to mention that there is a dpi switch they say that this mouse goes

80
00:05:14,479 --> 00:05:21,199
between 400 and 300 which is kind of the sweet spot i think for what most people

81
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:27,440
are actually using i generally go 800 unless i'm playing an old game it's

82
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:29,120
using a bmw 3360 which is a sensor in a

83
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:32,800
ton of mice including zowie's and glorious it's considered a flawless

84
00:05:30,479 --> 00:05:36,880
sensor i think is a good choice for this mouse keeping the cost down but not

85
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:42,320
compromising on quality even though it says that it goes between 432 the dpi

86
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:47,120
switch on the bottom does not seem to be going down to 400 i feels like holy

87
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:51,280
smokes that's crazy ah okay maybe there's more settings oh yeah

88
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,759
that feels like 800 i'm not going to worry too much about

89
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:58,080
sensitivity it might throw off a little bit of how it feels we've moved to this

90
00:05:55,840 --> 00:06:03,120
setup it's going to give me a better approximation what i'm doing at home i

91
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,319
have my settings semi-dialed in first

92
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:09,840
impressions it's a mouse i don't like the grip that

93
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:13,919
i'm having on this shell there's like a difference between the bottom part and

94
00:06:12,319 --> 00:06:17,680
the top part so it just feels a little bit off again it's prototype it's a

95
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:22,240
little too hard i like a little bit of squeeze although maybe it'll prevent me

96
00:06:19,759 --> 00:06:26,639
from breaking mice out of rage in terms of tracking i don't immediately feel a

97
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:30,160
difference i think that with a bit more use and being able to dial in settings

98
00:06:28,639 --> 00:06:34,880
exactly in the mouse i might feel it a little bit more in a bit we'll compare

99
00:06:32,479 --> 00:06:39,919
it to some more traditional mice uh that i have a bit more experience with

100
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:42,080
and see how it feels gotta show off that

101
00:06:39,919 --> 00:06:45,440
uh my one heirloom i think i have two actually but

102
00:06:43,919 --> 00:06:49,039
there's movements that i have that feel like they're spot on then sometimes i'm

103
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:53,120
moving and i'm getting a little less motion than i would expect i don't know

104
00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:56,800
if it's my brain that is freaking out because it's like

105
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,919
hey this is a different kind of mouse bro i think that's just something you'd

106
00:06:58,479 --> 00:07:04,080
have to get used to but uh that is outside the scope of this

107
00:07:02,319 --> 00:07:08,080
video you know overall this is feeling pretty good why don't we plug

108
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:12,479
in a mouse that i know a little bit more and see how the comparison feels first

109
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:17,280
off let's try the model d minus this is my preferred

110
00:07:13,919 --> 00:07:18,960
glorious shape it's also a wired mouse

111
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:22,240
it doesn't have the solid shell but i think the construction quality is

112
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,599
slightly better prototype you know prototype i love this shape i wish they

113
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,360
made a wireless variant to this they make a wireless model d but not a model

114
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,800
d minus it's interesting this feels more

115
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:35,840
sensitive maybe that's this feels

116
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:40,479
slightly less sensitive i think having the sensor a little bit higher is making

117
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:42,400
that 800 is feeling a little bit

118
00:07:40,479 --> 00:07:46,160
less responsive not less responsive but it's moving a little bit less by my

119
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,879
actions this is what i'm used to although i did it my brain was starting

120
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:53,759
to adjust pretty quickly to the other one this one's feeling a little bit slow i don't think it's gonna make as much of

121
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,680
a difference as the claims are i think intuitively it would make a little bit

122
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,280
of a difference but like most gaming peripherals is just what you're used to

123
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:05,199
if you're used to the way that it's faster sometimes and

124
00:08:02,879 --> 00:08:09,599
slower from the top then i think that's better but if you're used to the more

125
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:11,039
uniform motion or the more traditional

126
00:08:09,599 --> 00:08:15,440
acceleration from having the sensor right under the

127
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:19,120
center point i think that'll be better let's try a g pro x

128
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,160
no i don't even need to now i want to plug in them one more time

129
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:29,039
please glorious make a model d minus and i mean get subscribed so you can not

130
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:32,800
miss that content as it drops but damn man get out of here cable

131
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:36,800
what d minus why this really exists okay i'm

132
00:08:34,959 --> 00:08:40,000
gonna get that mouse i seem to be doing a little bit better with this mouse

133
00:08:38,159 --> 00:08:44,000
which is interesting i wouldn't expect that i did dial in my settings first on

134
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:48,480
this and i don't feel like i can make a definitive statement if putting the

135
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:53,680
sensor at the top is an overall better thing what i can say is that i'm having

136
00:08:50,399 --> 00:08:55,600
a really positive experience today i

137
00:08:53,680 --> 00:09:00,080
think that this is a fantastic idea and it actually is uh feeling pretty tight

138
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:04,480
there is an adjustment because some movements you're getting way more action

139
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:07,120
and some movements are getting way less but

140
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:11,600
that's just like i said getting used to it you can color me

141
00:09:08,959 --> 00:09:16,080
intrigued if you are also intrigued the kickstarter's still up they are

142
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:20,640
looking for some funding you know making it a full deal mouse i think this is

143
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:25,200
worth backing it's not a mouse that's ready for production it's 3d printed it

144
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:29,360
doesn't have the best build quality but it's an idea worth supporting if you

145
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:33,440
have the money and you're excited about something new in the gaming mouse space

146
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,800
i like this thing this is uh this is pretty cool and i hope that they can

147
00:09:34,959 --> 00:09:40,480
take it all the way thank you so much for watching this ShortCircuit if you

148
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:46,000
want to watch other mouse content go watch my model d minus video i like that

149
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,000
mouse it's just comfortable
