Big thanks again to Xtrfy and everyone for the support over the years. Stay tuned for my mouse pad coming too (also through Xtrfy).
It's been a huge learning experience but it's been awesome and can't wait for everyone to get one of these. I know it won't suit everyone, but even if it becomes a few people's main, that'll be pretty great. Otherwise, hope you like it anyway and it helps you understand what else you need to look for in your perfect mouse!
I have some crazy designs in mind so really excited to make more of these. This was my "safe" attempt, nothing too crazy for the first.
Enjoy!
I was not paid to make this video, all thoughts are my own ... but it's my mouse design so I was just explaining my thoughts behind it. I don't know if this counts as like a paid promotion or what, but for the sake of full disclosure ... I mean yeah it's mine with my name on it? :D

quick question can it double click because i butterfly and drag click alot and i'm looking for a new mouse thanks in advance! :))))))))))))
How are the chances for a wireless version?
Gonna be honest, not entirely digging the ambidextrous shape, and the fact it’s a cheese grater. Dust, animal hairs and dead skin make them a pain in the ass to clean. I’ll definitely give this mouse a shot though. You plan on making a more ergonomic shape? >>No software yeah nah. I'll wait until there's software.
need it to be a low weight wireless .. please :-)
Im curious do you know if there will be different colours on release day?
This guy mad me look at my hand for 10 minutes
LOL
Yeeeah hahaha

This is really great on so many levels and I'm not even talking about the mouse itself. Not a lot of people get to say they designed their own mouse. Congrats, Zy.
Yeah, congratulations man, you deserve it!
There really is just a handful. Zy is in some truly elite company alongside HeatoN (Emil Christensen, the Zowie EC series, SpawN (Abdisamad Mohamed, the Zowie AM series) and NEO (Filip Kubski, the Zowie FK series) as individuals that were asked by a larger company to make their perfect competition oriented mouse.
Click Sample Zy: here is an idea of how each sound like Me: holds phone next to ear KZhead AD: Hang on!
"McDonalds now has crazy discounts!!!" is what I heard MOUSE2 sounded like... I don't think I like the sound of that...
@@CIRCADES lol
Thank you for warning me
Dude i got an ad at the same time
Sees thumbnail: "What the fuck is that horrendous looking thing?" Hears explanation: "This man is a genius!"
Zy, thank you. I got this mouse yesterday. I placed my hand on it and said, "wtf." About 10 minutes later, I knew it was my new main. I nearly started a youtube channel just to talk about how rad this mouse is but realized I'd get more views just commenting on your channel. ;) There are so many intelligent design points, and for me, there was an instantly noticeable improvement to my aim over my old mouse. I'm looking forward to a future wireless release!
5 months since i posted this, and I absolutely wouldn't want to use another mouse. Can't wait for that wireless release.
um, can you share with us your hand mesureents and your grip style? cause i have 19.5/10.5 cm hands with claw grip and m thinking of either this or the xtrfy m42
@@elitec631 In my opinion your hands are too large to comfortably grip this mouse since this is a mouse designed for smaller hands If you are already playing with small mice, then ignore what i just said and try it.
I love how unique this shape is of this mouse. I feel like it could be a big hit. I'm just not sure if I can really go back to a wired mouse
judging from the cable it shouldnt be too hard. i'd say just pick up a mouse bungee and it should feel just fine for you
@@callum7334 I'm pretty sick off all the mice that have come out so fair. They've all been pretty similar and have lacked anything special. But I'm vury intrigued to try this out and willing to use a wired mice for this
@@zync4269 the reason for that is idiots hype up Chinese Companys using OEM shapes making them lightweight and charging a premium with horrible build quality... I know I fell for the hype of the Hati S.. then bought a FM UL2 and quilty difference was night and day I got lucky and found one for $70 fuck FM pricing paying $120 for a wired mouse is insane I'm very interested in the MZ1 ill be pre ordering for sure
@@zync4269 Have you ever tried a mm710? Dude, you don't even notice it has a cable, the difference between those kind of cables and standart ones is so huge. I'm certain Zy ensured his mouse will have a similar one. Btw. im not even using a mouse bungee. I simply put the cable over the bent neck of the table lamp, but I also barely notice it if it simply lies on the table, as it is so leight weight - the cable and also the mouse. Zy's mouse seems to have similar weight, only 56g, which will be really good. I'm a "gamer" for over XX years now. Back in the days nearly everyone prefered clunky ergonomic shapes over simple ambidextrous mice, cause it was more comfortable, even though many pro's used the old ms-mice. That is quite similar to pro's prefering CRT-Monitors over LCD, cause the ladder can barely provide such clear motion. Then people realized how you have more control if you go "a bit less" palm when gripping and letting your fingers have more control. Just years ago people used mice that weighted more than 90-110g. It only took the last years to make clear how important light weight mice are. There is a lot of subjectivity in using your mouse, but also bad habits, using a cable is not a bad habit, if you have such a good one. People don't want to go back to cable, but there are solutions out there.
@@yosoy1loco Can confirm, I have a mm710 and the cable is amazing at stock, that mice sadly had a lot of QC issues (mine is malfunctionating smh), but the cable is really good, I have the mouse cable taped to the bottom of the table and have it doing like a 180° angle towards me and for me it was the solution, it just feels like there's no wire.
That's an achievement after reviewing so much mice ; You deserved it !

I love the mode-switch for the top button, brilliant idea and a really cool mouse design! I hope this works out well for you, Zy!
Just got the mouse you designed today Zy. Wow! Where have you been all my life! It's solid and the shape is unlike anything I have tried to date. Well done and thank you for this.
Glad you like it!
I’m so incredibly excited. Very happy, will definitely consider getting.
Honestly this looks like a really nice mouse and the shape is amazing, you are spot on on everything tbh, I'm pretty amazed.
the shape is legit, ive used it all day and I love it. most seemless integration for a mouse fit to my hand of all time. no break in time needed for me at all. the hump is perfectly stabilizing, the sides grip perfectly, and every part of my hand just fits immediately with no play (no pun intended)
Congratulations Zy for realizing your dream of designing your own mouse. I've always loved your channel. Always so informative and it really helps me with my decision making when buying gaming mice. I have bought quite number of mice based on your reviews. I cannot wait to get this for myself as a tribute to you and your work. Hopefully it's available in my country and the price is affordable.
"no software" - thank you. I don't give a crap about RGB profiles, or macro whatever. I want to set my polling rate to 1000, dpi to 800 and move on with my life.
My guy. Bless you.
I loved that the EC2-B didn't have software. So handy not having bloatware on my computer and just being able to do everything from the mouse.
No software kills it for me, being able to change my DPI is REALLY important as I strongly prefer 500 over 400.
@@Spin793 I mean, I use 1000 dpi right now but you can just use a sensitivity converter and make it the exact same sensitivity at any dpi
@@Spin793 That's fair. It's all personal preference. I think he mentioned that software will be coming after the launch.
Really excited to try this, can tell a lot of work and thought went into it and it should fit my fingertip grip perfectly. Bummed to see on twitter you won't be doing reviews anymore, thank you for paving the way and setting the bar for how peripheral reviews should be done. You're the man Zy!
Seriously been watching you for years man You helped me improve my aim ten fold Love your videos. So glad you are getting the attention you deserve and got the opportunity to design a mouse. This is only the beginning for us. Thanks again!
Finally someone gave my boy the reigns. This is what I've been waiting for when I shilld your channel for years all over the internets. Can't wait to check it out!
That moment when the grip sounds perfect then you remember that your hands are massive
Yeah I feel you Bro. 20,5 x 11 cm hands here...
@@JuL3r Yeeeeep. Same. We need better mice for us humans with big hands!
@@JuL3r 20.5 x 10... i have mm520 and HX Core. Found them to be pretty comfortbale, lookin to buy something lighter. (some mouse at a lower price). Too bad we don't have that many options like people with smaller hands.
I don't know what you guys are talking about 90% of the mice designed for fingertip grip are too big for regular sized hands mine are 18 cm and I use the viper mini, and Ive heard people with 20 cm hands using it fine. This would only be a problem if you used palm grip which this mouse isn't designed for anyway. Someone with small hands would probably only be able to properly fingertip maybe this and the m1k.
@@devinmiller285 You cannot play RTS with fingertip grip style. I would even go so far to say that fingertip isn't suitable for mobas either.
Am so happy you made it to a point creating your own design, you deserve this and I believe your fans been waiting for this opportunity, thank you for your great efforts, expecting more stuff and designs from you
Got my pre-order in. You've steered me right for this long. Thanks for doing this Zy!
This mouse was actually perfect for me. Improved my KD to 1.6 on many games and KDA to 2.0 or above. Absolutely stellar work.
The straight drop down of the back of the mouse and its reasoning of microadjustment was what bought me in. Can't wait to try it out.
I was wondering why I liked my g305 more than my endgame xm1 but now I realise it’s because the g305 leaves more room for micro adjustments in my hand I’m really considering this mouse now
Been using this mouse for a few days now and man.. what an experience. I didn't think I was going to like it when I first felt it but I'm really in love with this mouse now. Great shape, great sensor, great buttons all around, great scroll wheel, light, light cable... you've really outdone yourself Zy. So glad you made a mouse as I've been watching your videos for years and waiting for one!
Good to hear! Yeah I'm so surprised people like it already, it took about 2 weeks before I was really solid with it.
@@RocketJumpNinja thanks for the reply! Means a lot man. I'm still getting used to it but its a great mouse.
Oh man, I'm so excited to see the reviews/reactions to this mouse. Haven't been this excited for a mouse in quite awhile. Thanks RJN!

the best mouse I've ever had, I really like that it's not hunchbacked, and it's insane for shooting !!!! i play fingertip grip and its no.1 mouse!!! keep it like this !!
Congrats on the mouse launch man! It must be pretty amazing designing something that people get to enjoy. That shape looks like something else. I'm happy you went with kaihl 8.0 and a softer cable. I can't wait to try it!
just preordered it ! great job Zy! can't wait to use it!
Thank you for putting the time into making this mouse. I have 20/11 size hands and had so many troubles finding a mouse that fit me properly. I tried superlight, ultralight 2,g703,viper ultimate and glorious model O wireless . But this is by far the most comfortable mouse I've ever had. The mouse feet glide perfect on my qck and the sensor is the most accurate I've used for tracking. The shape is perfect for fingertip as well and very very comfortable. Thank you for making this mouse and I hope it does down as top 3 fingertip mice of all-time. P.S.(If u can make wireless version but same sensor implementation i would def buy) Keep grinding RJN a lot of people appreciate the amazing content and insight.
and it gives me 20% increase in all my aim lab scores :)
@@tyriqueowns12 I have the exact size hand.Can it be used like for 131 grip style palm?
Randomly came to your channel looking for your view of the Logitech Pro without realising you had designed the other mouse I was considering. Went with yours in the end. Thanks for your really informative vids.
I just bought this mouse and i absolutely love it! Ive been waiting for someone to do this shape for so long! thank god for you! :)
I love the look of this mouse and hope that it’s a huge hit when it comes out bro! If you guys ever made a lightweight wireless version I’d be all over it! :)
"its supposed to compete with other mice in the market" my wallet threw me out of the house
I think I'm just gonna buy it to know what it feels like and for the support! Amazing job collaborating with Xtrfy. Keep up the amazing hard work and passion you've put into our gaming community!
Im so happy that you did your own design we are so proud of you keep it up 👍🏻
I'll just wait for mwave to stock up on this bad boi.
really excited to see how this mouse is received! will definitely get my hands on one eventually after this first release
Congrats Zy, looking forward to trying this one. Currently using the XM1 but i have a feeling this will feel really.great for me.
I have found my love in M4 but Im super proud that someone let you do this
no joke this looks perfect for me, after about 20 years of playing shooters i know i like a rear bump and a small mouse. the lighter the better. BUT im holding out on a wireless version. i love my mm710 and have spend a ton on mice in the past but until i go wireless i dont think ill be purchasing another mouse. Definitely keeping my eyes open to see what you have to say when/if it goes wireless.
you guys need to make a wireless version of this one, that would be incredible
Looks fantastic, Zy! I've been struggling to find the right shape for the longest time and maybe this will be the one for me. I know you don't claim the perfect mouse, but as you continue to refine it, I hope you'll consider adding 8000Hz polling rate and removing the debounce delay via an optical switch or a software latch. Traditionally XOR or NAND latches have been used to debounce switches, but this creates a set amount of delay. Using a software latch equivalent, you can send the signal on the first registered button press while still allowing time for the vibrations to stop before sending further signals thus preventing both double clicks and increased latency. Thanks for all you do! Long time fan and aspiring electrical engineer here!
The design is why I have been using the MM711 for so long. This mouse is very similar. I might buy it. Congrats on the mouse
Looks fantastic. Hope it takes off well enough to make a wireless version. I'll 100% purchase then.
I second this, i wouldnt dare replace my viper ultimate wireless unless there was another top mouse that was wireless as well.
agreed
Probably going to use alot of battery because of the lighting
@@wg676 make it without the lighting or just turn it off, it's that simple.

f11 is used in most games/browsers for fullscreen

@@FeintMotion I definitely use it. Probably because some browsers usually display it when in fullscreen. I used alt+enter only when games decided to go window mode instead of fullscreen.
Yeah F11 doesn't affect my games ... which games does it affect? I guess we can offer a firmware update to change it to another key if it becomes a problem.
@@RocketJumpNinja i know it affects Minecraft which is a pretty big game, cant there be a setting for it to not do anything at all?
@@Haphpint_ The RGB setting doesn't actually do anything unless you're looking at your mouse, is that good enough?
Damn, i was following your channel since the DM1 Pro S review, really glad you get an opportunity to make a product that might change the market a bit.
The first mouse that realy interest me i always feel that the lowest the front the more natural, i was looking longtime for a mice with the front very very low, you're actualy the best designer. cant wait to buy it from amazon to deliver it to my country.
I'll be preordering the mouse even if I'm not really playing competitive shooter anymore. On my prime CS days I was buying a mouse every 2 weeks so I'm definitely curious to feel this new shape. I get a razer diamond back vibe mixed with a kinzu. Very intrigue to say the least!
The Diamondback was SO GUD! Still have mine, the rubbers worn off the buttons, but it still works! Razer used to be so much better.
@@badnewsbruner used to be? The razer viper family of mice are some of the top mice for competitive fps games. For the rest of the people that just monkey grip the mouse they have the basilik, death adder, and mamba. I have the logitech gpro x superlight and still regularly switch back to the viper ultimate.
@@iJansport yeah and they break after a year or two
@@gshotProd fr my viper mini got sensor issues after a year even though it looks brand new
@@badnewsbruner Been missing my Diamondback for so many years now :(
razor salmosa vibes anyone? been chasing that shape for a minute now, looking forward to this!
yeah it looks a bit like the salmosa. im wondering how does it compare to the salmosa asia edition sizewise
I'm STILL using a Razer Salmosa even though I have 20 other mice. I'm pretty sure Zy's mouse can replace it since it has so many of the same features I love about the Salmosa.
Logitech g9 vibes too. The g9 had sharper edges, but overall similar shape.
I do like how the middle mouse button can be bound to different functions and a dedicated keyboard function key.
Having those extra long buttons like you see on the xm1 was a great addition. Excellent looking mouse, can't wait to feel the shape myself.
Zy I am really looking forward to getting a hold of this mouse. You have by far been the most influential person in this community for years, and I have always enjoyed and appreciate your content. May your future continue to bring you happiness and success sir. Thank You!
I've been using your mouse for a month now and I love it. Got used to the shape pretty fast and I can't imagine going back.
Awesome. Yeah I feel the same. I know that sounds biased but there's a big difference between designing something in clay and actually using it. There was a chance I wouldn't like it, but now that I'm used to it, everything else feels kinda wrong.
@@RocketJumpNinja One year plus mark with heavy use. Still awesome.
Thx Zy your mouse is a masterpiece! Got my copy yesterday and I’m really impressed. I used the Ultralight 2 before but your design just feels a little bit better. The rails felt odd at first but are super comfortable now and with my fingertips closer to my mousepad and the rounded rear part of the mouse, which makes adjusting with my thumb and ring finger more precise, I have a lot more control. I use both thumb buttons when playing and both are precisely reachable compared to the Ultralight where i would sometimes press both. You have guided my to a lot of great mice in the past, but your design is without a doubt the best one I used so far.
Thanks Simon! So great to see such a positive response and people taking to the mouse so quickly. I was expecting at least 2 weeks adjustment. Enjoy!
imma be so cracked on my zy's rail SHEEEEESsssshhh
SHEEEEESsssshhh
less gooooo!
Ahhhh, that track again that was never released. Can we have it now? :D
My MZ1 just arrived today! First impressions: It feels incredibly comfortable in my hands and very high quality. I love that the mouse 1 and 2 buttons feels comfortable to click anywhere; even towards the middle of the mouse. I already like it more than the Zowie FK2 I've been using since 2016!
Shape looks great, Chief! Can't wait to try it out.
Interesting how this shape is gonna feel. There's nothing similar to this.
looks like g302 imo
If it works, other companies will copy it and hopefully sell it for cheaper price. Thanks RJN for his efforts, but prices for wired mice has gotten down and I personaly aren't going to support overpriced gaming gear
thats.....the whole point...
@@jackofblades yeah maybe, in another dimension, where clouds are made out of milk soap, Butterflies have breast and look like little Elves and Unicorns drop out of the Heaven to invade Planet Earth...then you are right Sir, it looks EXACTLY like a G302 ^^ :D
Personally reminds me of an endgame gear xm1 with lower hump
A bigger version in the future for 20cm hands would be really appreciated :)

finally the video Ive been waiting for. I diddnt even watch it yet but im liking it anyways. Keep up the good work
This actually looks like the mouse that was made for me. Great content and awesome work on the mouse! Cheers
for the mousepad i rlly want to see zy's face printed on it
how about using other function keys? like f13 and further, that are not present on modern keyboards is the problem that they are not bindable in games?
is there a f13 key?
@@normalguy7877 there were keyboards with a second function row, so f keys go up to f24 i don't know would they work in games or not
If you plug windows keyboard into Mac you'll notice Print Screen actually reads as F13, so I don't know if there's another F13 or Print Screen actually is F13. So I do think maybe it is safer to stick with F11.
This is next level and big achievement for Rocket Jump Ninja and props for Xtrfy to make this possible
just pre ordered this bad baybe! sooooo excited to try it out and support u mate.
Why not use something like F13, which is almost guaranteed to not be used by anything (since basically no modern keyboards have F13-F24 on them)?
maybe because a lot of games might not recognise those? just a guess
I look like I'm throwing up gang signs trying to copy your hand gestures

Some day, hopefully!
Mine developed the infamous cord issue many Reddit users have reported with this model upon completing a year of use. Wouldn't recommend it, sorry.
I love this mouse. I received 3 days ago. It took me 2 days to get used to it. The first thing I can say in short them, is that it makes me feel much more in control of my aim. I used previously the following mice: MM710, Glorious model O-, Razer viper ultimate, Razer death adder, Zowie fk2 and Logitech g305. This one definitely feels the best for me. In short term, I can say that it really improved my aim, but I want to mention, that I have the exact measurements of Zy's hand. It feels like is crafted for my hand. I'm really grateful you made this product Zy.
I have to agree with you! I have similar sized the hand like Zy and got myself FM UL2 (Cape Town). I stopped being curious about any other mouse because that one was also the best shape and size for my hand. Having similar sized hand like Zy is great shortcut in endless world of computer mouse. If it ever breaks I am going to buy his current the best ranked mouse again!
Got one under the Black Friday special. I really like it. Nicely done.
"The mouse wasn't designed for looks." Let's see: Brightful RGB Translucent black shell Honeycomb design Hmm...

Honeycomb design is definitely not done for looks lol.

Isn't F11 Fullscreen Mode lol
Just got mine in the mail today, and already love it. Can hardly imagine how good it will feel when fully adjusted over time. Switching from my Viper Ultimate, which has served me well, but has a few quirks that I wasn’t fond of. Side buttons were always a little too small and squishy feeling for me, and my grip seemed to change a bit between relaxed fingertip and claw palm. Right off the bat, MZ1’s comfort grooves feel right at home, side buttons are larger and feel crisp, clicks are super satisfying, and doesn’t seem to creak like my Viper does. Filled in sections of plastic mostly line up with my grip, though my ring and pinky fingers are a little further forward on the right side. The big bump at the rear sits perfectly under my index and middle knuckles. Scroll wheel (which I use extensively, including scroll wheel click) feels tactile and intentional in use. While I do wish there were a wireless version, a cable is a small trade off for a mouse that feels perfect to me in every other way. Thanks for making such a kickass mouse!
I had the same problem with the viper ultimate, somehow I always ended up in a claw grip
thank you for taking a risk and challenging the status quo of mouse design. i am very excited to see how this mouse performs in the hands of the public.
Got mine a few weeks ago and already I am in love. Never felt this good with a mouse since I a Zowie EC1 back when I used to palm grip mice. This has the same great comfort and gives me the same confidence in my aim while being providing the additional range of movement of fingertip grip. It probably hugely benefits that I have hands the same size as Zy, as the first time I picked up the mouse my hand naturally sat exactly where the smooth sections of the mouse where (i have obviously got the same grip style as zy) I even forget the mouse has holes most of the time. This is a great mouse, I really hope it does well and more manufacturers pick up this shape. Good work Zy and Ztrfy! If you like fingertip/claw and have similar size hand to zy i cant recommend this enough.
Thanks! Although I'd rather this design stay with Xtrfy. They were great, took a risk on me and my design abilities and here we are. They deserve the love.
@@RocketJumpNinja Im not saying I have a problem with Xtrfy, on the contrary, they have done an amazing job on this. The setup, look, feel, quality and everything is amazing. I just don't want this shape to be a one off. I hope Xtrfy continue to use and refine this shape/design. If so I will never look anywhere else.
Nice, yeah I'm sure we can refine it further. If they ever want to, I'll be there to help!
Gotta say Zy, this is pretty neat. I'll have a look at preorders tomorrow morning :) Hope this is the start of something lasting and impactful for you!
