really oh okay they've fastened it","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":243.159,"end_s":250.48,"text":"with a twist tie here I was like why can't this come out and then I realize","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":248.2,"end_s":255.439,"text":"why it can't come up so I've completely trashed the packaging now all right so","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":253.319,"end_s":259.16,"text":"let's see what we can adjust oh looks like we do have some adjustments we have","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":257.359,"end_s":262.919,"text":"we have more customizability than I had originally thought","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":260.68,"end_s":269.88,"text":"so here we go let's have a closer look at this guy first of all we've got the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":266.32,"end_s":273.32,"text":"uh hex key right here so that one is is","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":269.88,"end_s":277.68,"text":"to slide

cool","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":307.08,"end_s":315.16,"text":"thing okay here we have indicator LEDs for the DPI settings so you have up to","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":312.4,"end_s":321.44,"text":"four user definable DPI settings and you can pick the mode here that you

out","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":404.199,"end_s":411.599,"text":"my unboxing of the Rat 3 don't forget to subscribe to lonus techtips for

it","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0}],"full_text":"now I already looked at the rat 7 on my channel and that was the highest end of the rat rat series of well mice I guess they're rats if you want to be really technical about it see rat kind of like that so uh that is the highest end from this series so now we're going to have a look at the rat 3 which is the value rat mouse so the first thing that stands out about the rat 3 is it lacks some of the customization options of the Rat 7 it also is a lower DPI sensor so it is a 3200 DPI sensor so let's have a look at what else sech has to say for this particular gaming mouse okay 3200 DPI we got that next we have low friction PTFE slick feet all right so what I normally call slippy pads they're calling slick feet I guess either one of those terms will do and we have a goldplated USB connector to make sure that you've always got good contact it's going to be corrosion resistant all that good stuff okay so 400 to 3200 DPI in 400 DPI steps I like that it's uh quite a bit finer than some of the other gaming mice that I've seen out there acceleration up to 10 G's uh pulling rate is dynamic up to 500 Hertz so that is 500 times per second tracking speed is up to 1.2 m/s wow good luck moving a a mouse that fast okay everything else here is fairly straightforward okay LED colors are red blue and purple for each mode all right cool nothing on this side on the other side we see oh yeah we already looked at this remap programmable buttons and create custom macros with the powerful St software okay that's something I didn't see before uh for user definable DPI settings and nine user definable commands via three programmable buttons and a three position mode switch okay so why don't we start getting this thing open if I can figure out how to open the box I had a lot of trouble with the rat 7 as I recall so there's actually four mice in the rat series there's the three the five the seven and the nine so they've conveniently built themselves in enough room to do an entire upgraded series called the 4 6 8 and 10 I guess uh so the main differences are in terms of how much customization there is okay so the the rat 7 you can change almost every dimension of the mouse even uh how much customization there is and what features it has so the rat 9 for example is basically a wireless version of the Rat 7 just in case you were wondering what is the difference between the nine and the seven so yeah this packaging is just a total bear to get open there we go aha so let's find the accessories here inside first there we go so cyborg so it's a sech brand uh which is I believe a mad cats brand so sort of brand within a brand within a brand ultimately as long as it's good stuff it doesn't really matter okay so here we go cyborg gaming.com includes ah here we go here's a summary look look at that they're going to make life easy for me okay so oh fly so these are the keyboards okay so there's the clip cyborg keyboard there's a fly okay oh no fly is a joystick aha that helps okay look product guide I love this okay so the three four user definable DPI settings okay the five has uh 30 G of removable weights I don't believe we're going to find removable weights in the three 15 us definable commands via five programmable buttons so there's one of the differences the rat 7 yes interchangeable Pinky and palm rests four user user definable DPI settings Precision aim mode that one is the fully featured Mouse and then the rat 9 is the wireless version of that guy okay so let's look at the rat 3 Mouse and see what we think of it hm really oh okay they've fastened it with a twist tie here I was like why can't this come out and then I realize why it can't come up so I've completely trashed the packaging now all right so let's see what we can adjust oh looks like we do have some adjustments we have we have more customizability than I had originally thought so here we go let's have a closer look at this guy first of all we've got the uh hex key right here so that one is is to slide this back and forth okay next we have a hex key over here and that one H how does that move it guess I'll have to figure this out off camera okay so I have figured it out the rat 3 is not adjustable in any way these are to label the back and forward buttons so let's go through everything that is included on this mouse why don't we start with the forward and back buttons so these are programmable buttons you can change what you want them to do and that is a pretty cool thing okay here we have indicator LEDs for the DPI settings so you have up to four user definable DPI settings and you can pick the mode here that you desire okay and there's also a DPI adjusting button here okay this is rapid fire this is your right click which is not rapid fire okay over here on the other side you have no buttons now unlike the higher end mice the rat 3 does not include like a metal plate on the bottom it is a fully plastic design you have a oh yeah you have a middle click as well as a mouse wheel should show you that this is just for show as far as I can tell it's kind of like a cool uh like cooling pipe looking thing that's uh built right into the mouse now it's quite even though it looks like there's kind of pieces missing and it might not be comfortable it actually fits quite nicely into like a a claw type grip and the thing about that particular grip is it's pretty flexible you can use a small Mouse whether you have small hands or big hands you should be able to hold the rat 3 fairly comfortably for gaming so there's your uh laser sensor on the bottom and I forget how many DPI it is a 3200 DPI laser sensor it's actually labed right there good for me and there are your slippy pads on the bottom of the mouse including a very large one over your thumb cuz that's probably where you're going to be putting a lot of pressure if you hold a mouse anything like the way that I do so thank you for checking out my unboxing of the Rat 3 don't forget to subscribe to lonus techtips for more unboxings and other computer and gaming Style videos with me there's your goldplated USB connector look at that it even has a little cyborg logo on it"}
