00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:16.320
Welcome to my unboxing of the MeionX NaOS 8200. This is an allnew mouse from

00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:22.400
MeionX that actually takes what was already good about the NaOS 3200 and the

00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:24.720
NOS 5000 and kicks it up a notch. So,

00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:28.800
basically, we've got what is a pretty standard overall package here. So, you

00:00:27.119 --> 00:00:32.880
can see a picture of the mouse with the green mionics accents here. Although, it

00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:37.600
should be noted that those colors can be changed to any one of

00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:42.320
16.8 million color options using the programmable LEDs that can be changed

00:00:40.160 --> 00:00:48.239
within the software. And it should also be noted that the ergonomics have

00:00:45.160 --> 00:00:49.680
thankfully not changed versus the

00:00:48.239 --> 00:00:53.920
previous NAS mice. They've also gone with an extremely small package. So,

00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:58.239
it's basically just the mouse and a couple of accessories tucked away inside

00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:04.479
of an outer box. Sensor specifications. Okay. So, 8200 DPI laser, 32bit 72 MHz

00:01:02.559 --> 00:01:10.200
ARM processor. Don't think of it in terms of 72 MHz. Think of it as 72

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:14.960
millions of hertz. Sort of one way of looking at it,

00:01:12.960 --> 00:01:19.040
right? So, okay, let's go ahead and have a close look at the packaging here. So,

00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:22.880
we've got a little fold out piece here. We've got a little plastic piece here. I

00:01:20.720 --> 00:01:26.880
gotta admit the packaging itself feels a little bit less deluxe than previous

00:01:24.479 --> 00:01:30.960
MeionX mice. But if the performance is anything to or if the performance is

00:01:28.960 --> 00:01:35.280
anything like what I'm used to, then it should be just fine. In fact, my wife is

00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:39.920
a bit of a picky peripheral user and refuses to use anything but her NaOS

00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:44.960
3200 or the 5000 that she was using before, but I craftily snuck away when

00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:48.240
she wasn't looking. Anyway, so I'm going to get our B-roll camera to go ahead and

00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:54.079
have a look at what we've got here in terms of specs overall. So, award-winning ergonomic design,

00:01:51.520 --> 00:01:58.880
extremely comfortable. The overall shape of the mouse is quite frankly just

00:01:57.119 --> 00:02:02.960
awesome. So, you can see right here, whether you have smaller hands like me

00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:06.399
or whether you kind of have bigger hands and you're going to need to be sitting

00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:10.879
back a little bit further. The curve of the mouse is such that you can sort of

00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:14.400
sit back on it or choke up on it as much as you want and it'll be comfortable

00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:18.160
from either angle. So, I'm just going to go ahead and shift back over here so you

00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:21.920
can have a look from the other side. So, same thing here where you've got a curve

00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:25.760
right here for your pinky, a curve right here for your ring finger, and then

00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:30.680
comfortable placements for your index and your middle fingers as well as for

00:02:28.160 --> 00:02:34.640
your thumb on the other side. So, yeah, they haven't done away

00:02:32.959 --> 00:02:38.319
with that grip friendly rubber coating. So, it does use a soft touch feel

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:42.800
overall to the mouse, which I personally prefer. I think that was a huge misstep

00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:49.840
for Steeler when they upgraded the ZY to the Sensei. Now, the newer uh the newer

00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:51.519
Sensei with the um MLG branding on it

00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:55.599
actually brings back that soft touch finish, and I think that is a very very

00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:58.640
important thing. Three-step in-game DPI adjustments. Okay, this is pretty

00:02:56.720 --> 00:03:02.879
standard for gaming mice these days. Seven buttons overall. So, you've got

00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:06.000
your back and forward buttons here. By the way, they're all programmable.

00:03:04.239 --> 00:03:10.480
You've got your DPI up and down buttons here, your mouse wheel click, as well as

00:03:08.480 --> 00:03:14.640
your left and right buttons here. That is pretty much it in terms of glowy

00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:18.640
spots. the mouse wheel, these DPI indicators here, as well as these

00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:22.879
buttons and the Mionics logo at the back will all

00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:27.120
glow. In-game profile switching. Okay. Extensive programmable macros. That's

00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:29.840
good. Six integrated LEDs in four color zones, so you can actually have multiple

00:03:28.720 --> 00:03:34.879
different color zones. That's kind of neat. I actually didn't know that already. Color shift function. So, you

00:03:32.959 --> 00:03:38.720
can use solid, blinking, pulsating, or breathing LED effects. You can adjust

00:03:36.720 --> 00:03:43.599
the polling rate. This is something that has been more of more of a thing in the

00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:46.159
more recent years. Actually, a long time ago, people didn't really talk about it

00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:51.519
at all. I remember you used to have to do like a manual override to change your

00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:54.799
mouse to a 1,00 uh hertz polling rate. So, that's uh that's very good. I mean,

00:03:53.200 --> 00:04:01.599
a 1000 hertz is a thousand times a second, which means we're taking the mouse down with a wired connection to as

00:03:58.640 --> 00:04:07.360
little input latency as is humanly possible or not humanly possible, just

00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:10.879
in general possible. Large PF PTFE feet.

00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:12.560
So, these right here are going to be the

00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:17.919
slip pads that are going to make it so that you don't actually have any sort of

00:04:15.519 --> 00:04:21.280
unintentional grip to the surface that you are putting it down on. So,

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:25.280
hopefully you can see those pretty well there. There we go. So, those should be

00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:29.600
quite durable. Like I said, uh we've had one of their uh 3200 mice in deployment

00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:34.000
for quite a while. No complaints whatsoever. They're also quite thick, so

00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:37.840
large. and they have a like quite a quite a thickness to them, so they

00:04:35.280 --> 00:04:42.240
shouldn't wear down too quickly, but if they do, then sort of your mileage may

00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:45.520
vary, I suppose. Can't be my fault. Uh, gold-plated USB connection. This is less

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:50.479
necessary than you might think. And then it's got a 2 m cable with braiding on it. So, let's go ahead and have a close

00:04:48.479 --> 00:04:53.919
look at that. So, the gold plating on the outside of the connector actually

00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:57.840
does absolutely nothing for the durability of the mouse. Uh, it's just

00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:01.759
for looks mostly. It's more important to have gold plating on the inside where

00:04:59.840 --> 00:05:06.080
those connectors are. So, gold is useful for these kinds of connectors because it

00:05:03.919 --> 00:05:09.360
doesn't oxidize and it's somewhat mal malleable, which means it's going to

00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:12.560
always make a good connection. Braided cable is high quality. It's a braided

00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:17.120
cable. This is something we're used to seeing on gaming mice, so that's good to see. And we'll be back in a moment with

00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:20.960
the mouse lit up so you guys can have a look at it. So, basically, guys, this

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:24.960
last little bit here is just going to be to give you some overall glamour shots

00:05:23.280 --> 00:05:28.560
of the mouse itself. I'm not even going to let Slick's camera have any of the

00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:33.280
action at all. So, I'm just going to sort of turn it over, show you guys what

00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:36.639
it looks like. I mean, I have smallerish hands. In fact, Slick could even just

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:40.320
put down his camera and come do a more practical demonstration of what a larger

00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:44.880
hand will look like on the mouse itself. So, here, just kind of give them a bit

00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:47.440
of a of a view there. So, in fact, here here's the mic. What What are What are

00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:52.080
your impressions of the shape? You've used one like this before, right? Yeah. Yeah. I can claw it still. So, that's

00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:56.479
really nice. But then, if someone had smaller hands, they could palm it very easily. Although, palming it with the

00:05:54.479 --> 00:06:00.240
size of a hand is kind of ridiculous. Okay, so there you go, guys. Smaller

00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:05.120
hands can Oh my goodness, look how sweaty his hands are. Check this out.

00:06:01.840 --> 00:06:07.520
Isn't that gross? It's disgusting. Um,

00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:12.240
so smaller hands, palm is very easy, very comfortable. You could also claw it

00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:17.199
with smaller hands, but I'd say it's optimized for small hand, palm, large

00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:20.400
hand, claw, and then sort of in between. I guess you could probably go either way

00:06:18.960 --> 00:06:24.720
because I have very small hands and then Slick has very, very large hands. So, I

00:06:23.440 --> 00:06:30.240
think that pretty much wraps it up. Oh, yeah. Your four different LED zones are going to be here, here, here, and here.
