what do u guys think of gameplay in videos? i personally dont care for it since i aim nearly the same with all mice (some exceptions) BUT HALF OF THE PEOPLE WHO WATCH ME THINK I PLAY KRUNKER so i think i gotta include some gameplay LMK
upload an among us vid rn
@@ziblackingbestww444 yes
im not apposed to seeing some nasty flicks ngl
I like it, it breaks up the video a bit. Plus you're good at FN so I enjoy it. Keep it up mate! :)
I like the gameplay maybe some kovaks as well?
thanks techne for making this review possible
lmao reads like a sponsorship
"thanks techne for sending 2 mouses to someone who has quite the exact opposite opinion as you do on the mice"
i just bought the ghost edition today, it was really an upgrade to me from the old one. yes, they do glide best, the cosmetic absolutely unbeatable, build quality really improved because no creaks on my copy and lastly, they put a new and better switch on button which you can access it effortlessly. i mean the switch is more out than the old one. worth my money even i just used the old one about 3 and half months now. nice and honest review which really got myself the confident to buy the latest version!!!
this mouse being same price as the super light is a hate crime against gamers
every single superlight I see has clicking issues, if yours did not start to wobble yet, it will.
@@anaobr222 Easily fixed though. If you can replace feet, you can fix that.
@@anaobr222 i’ve had mine for like 3/4 months and it’s still perfect so idk what to tell ya man
Why? Lighter not equal to better
@@superblitz2274 the mouse itself is just overall S tier
u and techne doing gods work, people shouldnt be spending 200+ on steelseries mice lmao
Love this duo :)
I love how the camera is focused perfectly on the water bottle
Thanks techne. I love both of ur vids
Boardzy how should I clean my strider? Since its waterproof it doesnt get the stuff out or do I just live with it :)
I mained the full size prime wireless for a while, but I moved on because a.) The clicks are very loud and heavier than I prefer and b.) at 80g the whole mouse is heavier than I prefer.
Literally just got mine in the mail right before this went up
Good, now return it
L
@@michaelchoi5247 brutal but honest
Btw I actually like the size and shape with 18.5 x 11cm hands and claw grip. Side buttons are a non issue for me and I don't have any QC issues either.
@@itsgen8283 so you like it? That's great then
Thank you for pointing out the sensor is actually a 3335!
Hey Boardzy, do you know any mousepads with a low initial friction but has high dynamic friction? I'm not quite sure on what to get at the moment. I run super high sense so it doesn't have to be large.
I like the video and hit the noti's already, Ill maybe share if you respond!!
Try an artisan zero tbh
@@boardzy thanks
Can you review the new retail copy of ninjutso oox? They fixed all of the problem in the 1st batch
Any thoughts/information on LGG Saturn? I’m interested in it and would like to know if you’re going to have a review in the near future
are u in my discord? i posted a pic of the weave in there compared to the zero yesterday. I will talk more about it once i get the odin eclipse (should be today) since they might be the same thing not sure
@@boardzy joining now, ty
I pretty much agree with everything you said in the video. I’ve been using my mini for about 2-3 weeks now and while it is comfy In games where I don’t use the side buttons it becomes a bit awkward in games where I do. Might go back to a RVU or GPX
GPX feels 100x better imo
I feel like the position of the gpx side buttons is really far up and I have to change my grip to reach them while the rest of my hand is almost too long and my palms are too wide to ever make it comfortable. I just have weird hands though. -_- makes every mouse feel not great.
@@bonesani3047 honestly that’s why I prefer the RVU, but people don’t like the flush side buttons. I never had an issue with pressing the buttons. I do wish the mouse feet were bigger though, but the Hyperglides make it better
@@nastyx7885 i have a way longer middle and ring finger than my pointer so I'm starting to think symms aren't made for me either. -_-
Still bought the areox 3 ghost because I wanted a clawgrip mouse just a tad bigger than my orochi and it was almost the only option (already owned viper mini, so the pwnage was not an option) g pro x is bigger, and I can not think about any other wireless mice, maybe the hati? but not sure about the shape
Is the quality and click issues +$100 worth a different shape then the orochi
@@7sukuyomi for claw yes, the back of the orochi is small and sometimes it even hurts, plus the clicks on the orochi are not the best anyways, probably just a tad better than on the aerox
Model D wireless or gpw or viper ult or asus rog keris :)) ?
I keep checking in for your review for glorious model D wireless. my favorite. is it coming????
Yes. I had to wait a long time since glorious won’t send me review units. Should be out next friday
@boardzy is orochi v2 the best wireless mouse for 80$?
Origin One X and Model D wireless are up there with it.
@@Danko_HS what did you say?
Is that prime wireless mini still front heavy like it's predecessor? Made it feel odd to aim from what I remember
Yes it is front heavy
@@boardzy yucky :)
Mr. Boardzy I would like to ask how's the Prime Mini Wireless when micro adjusting? Thank you! I'm a big fan!
Not great for me tbh. If you have smaller hands it would be easier to control I think
@@boardzy Thanks Sir!
I've used both the prime wireless and this mini iteration. The clicks on the mini one are actually slightly lighter. However because of the 73g in a small form factor it actually feels heavier than the 80 grams version. I really wanted to like the mini but it just isn't quite there technically as well as weight wise. I've also heard people anecdotally claim that the magnetic clicks cause extra latecy, I found this difficult to replicate so I'm not sure about that. 3/10 buy something that's better and (probably) cheaper.
i heard they fix the latency by firmware update be 1,8 ms
Do the prime mice still have the click latency?
Cool! a must buy for me
love the "best esport mouse" sticker
what is your mouse pad ?
@boardzy for 80$ is the mini wireless worth?
Much love
Prime mini is like the next gen of the rival 100 with wireless feature. And Both have the same dimension.
The feet on the ghost on my unit is a scratchpost. Horrid. $130 for the Prime Mini is a crime.
I bought mine for €70 which is a far cry from the price mentioned in the review. I'd say they reduced the price quite a lot.
You are amazing, don’t change yourself ♥️
Love the gameplay
Video on odin eclipse soon? I have an infinity and want to try a control pad too.
dropping mid next week
@@boardzy thanks bro
DELUX M800 has the same sensor with Kailh red gm 4.0 for 1/3 the price.
It's curious how your ring finger stays way back grabing the mouse.
can you do firmware update and test again prime mini wireless
Could u reccomend me a 70-50$ wireless mouse, I was about to buy the pwnage ultra custom or the model o wireless but watching your reviews I believe it's not worth it lol
Pretty hard to find a wireless with no flaws in that price range. The only ones i can think of are Orochi v2 and Origin One X.
@@Danko_HS ok thanks lmao im gonna buy the ninjutso origin, boardzy's review seemed really promising thanks alot
please boardzy-sama , do a review on CORSAIR M65 RGB ULTRA Wireless
i just wanna know about that wireless za13
Yo boardzy is g502 best for fortnite i have gpx should i buy or nah
Bruh just stick with the gpx
Now that the ghost Aerox has been addressed, I think the question on everyone’s mind is when are you going to take a look at Zy’s white rail? 🌚
i prefired this comment when i ordered it yesterday
@@boardzy what why didnt they send you a review sample?!?!?! :shocking:
@@boardzy you are cracked irl too
@@FirstnameLastname-yh5fb I'm shocked right now
u aim better with the aerox 3 or prime mini?
i got my aerox 3 on sale for 60$ and i haven’t noticed anything bad with it
What's the name of the mouspad
Bro that ZA is back in shot again 👀👀
love you techne
can you review the new roccat pads?
yeah but its not gonna be a priority tbh
@@boardzy Sense Pro is a hybrid and allegedly smoother and faster than Hien. Might be worth a look.
U got the grip width on the prime mini? in centimeter?
5.66cm. Old comment but maybe will be helpful for others that read it later.
@@zares_fnx Thanks
I use a g pro wired version but i just copped a viper mini 8k well see
The main buttons are actually what killed the Prime series for me. My own humanbenchmark testing results show that they have about 10 to 15 ms extra latency compared to my mains (GPX, Viper, etc.). I think it's actually because the clicks are very heavily tensioned so that your fingers can't actuate them easily.
Yep and there is also debouncing on the switches. About 7ms. On *optical switches*. facepalm
@@yetanothermousereview9892 Can it be changed?
Yep, theyre between kalilh 4.0s and huanos imo. A bit stiff.
steel series jacked the boardzy seal of approval sticker 😱
I Don't agree on the Aerox 3 Ghost. I passed on the original Aerox 3 release due to all the negative reception it had gathered for its shoddy build quality, and bad feet, even though the shape looked like I would enjoy it as it shared a lot of similarities to another mouse I liked a lot (the Roccat Burst Pro) Saw the Ghost re-release and decided to pull the trigger since the new colorway just looks awesome in my opinion. The moment I got it in my hand it became my main and I bought a back-up. Easily my favorite mouse shape that trims down and improves on the Burst's dimensions perfectly for my hand size (20x10) The build quality/QC of my copies is solid with 0 issues except one of the copies the feet is scratchier than the other for some reason... The sensor/performance etc... has all been perfect and the clicks are very light and satisfying. As of right now I feel it is the best mouse out there for me having tried pretty much everything out right now.
Im a burst pro enjoyer who is interested in the za13 c and aerox 3 ghost. This comment might make me stop waiting for the za13 to come back in stock and just try an aerox 3
@@JFINNN Give it a shot. I'm glad I did. It still remains my Go-To. Just order one on Amazon and return it if you don't like it.
is that a wireless za13 in the background?
Yes. Vid coming soon, it’s a custom tho
@@boardzy damn i got my hopes way up. are there any good za13 clones you know of?
Wireless Symm 1 Gen 2 review? Has new sensor dif shell size other new shit too
For me.. my aerox 3 ghost is my endgame. I have a super light, viper ultimate, viper mini, orochi v2, and nothing fits my hand quite like the aerox 3. The weight, shape, everything is just perfect. Even the software is the best in comparison, especially since they've added sonar. My aim and gameplay definitely improved as soon as I switched to my ghost.
Roccat burst air is actually close and sensor on it is amazing i like aerox 3 and that my aim was amazing with both but they were to thin n made my hand kinda hurt after hours of playing so hada go a lil bigger n get a gpx would actually rather be using one of them 2 mouses than it really more of a fan of there sensors implamintation and feel is what sucks.
do a review about this new mousepad odin Eclipse mousepad should be like the artisan zero
Yeah it’s coming
normal speed boardzy sounds like slow motion
Do you main the VAXEE mousepad ?
no, just like the way it looks on cam
@@boardzy which one then? =)
this or GPX Superlight? 17x10 cm hands, relaxed claw
Superlight lmao
@@user-hr1uw4cj2z Superlight might feel big for his handsize Because his handsize is close to mine.
I just got the GPX, I'm done with mice for a few years.
The correct mouse choice
Had mine for about a month now, literally 0 regrets
Is this mouse worth for $62?
Got for $24. Was a Amazon Return. At that price, it's a steal.
Was that the za 13 on ur desk
A wireless one at that
@@boardzy I need a review and info on how I can get it
kinzu and sensei lightweight and steelseries could be at the top again. Now they are just meh, and expensive...
Why improve 2 of the best mice in esports history when you can try to reinvent the wheel ... and fail?
@@Danko_HS it's really hard to believe how they can be so dumb. Zowie stole steelseries leadership in esports and showed the world how to sell good shaped mice like hotcakes for years just by updating the sensor. And then other brands showed zowie they need to improve more and they're slowly starting to improve weight, cable. Let's see how it goes. But steelseries... they are just blind and deaf.
@@413fps My guess is they replaced the CEO (i know that for a fact) and staff from Sensei days and the new staff didn't wanna go down the same road, hence the horrendous shapes they've been releasing lately. But for me the Superlight is very close to Sensei's shape and the Hati S wireless is a great alternative to Kinzu, so Steelseries can do whatever they want for all i care, i'm 👌🏼
what sens do you play on
27cm
when will boardzy make a channel just of gameplay
no
Love the pumpkin spice candle vibes
Candles are top tier
thanks to Techne!
I cannot choose, should I buy wireless or wired mouse?
Wireless is better but need to charge or change batteries on some mice but wired are mostly 2x times cheaper
Do the Glorious D wireless
Sorry for being toxic by having bias towards the Prime Wireless. (It was in your Seal Of Approval poll) You still to me feel like you absolutly *HATE* Steelseries as a brand he says the Steelseries software is stupid with literally nothing to back it up and it just doesn't feel right.
never has been so early for a vid
Anyone else notice how bordzy is alsoprogressively getting better at playing fortnite every video?
idk what it is but i really like the prime series my grip is different from other players i play alot of csgo and val so ya
Best shape i ever tried 18x10 my hand size
Why is steel series the only brand dropping mice :(
We have cooler master and glorious too!!! ELITE
I know that for every product there is a customer but 130 is too much, hard to believe that the makers of basically the best gaming keyboard struggle this much with a mouse.
What mousepad is that?
Vaxee pa zygen
Would you still consider the superlight as the best of the wireless ?
yeah
@@boardzy orochi? Up there?
@@triliner254 Yes but superlight is better
I mean a decent 3335 is far better than the 3370 in the MM731.
couldnt agree more
Why
@@blue241 the mm731 is unusable for me. Updating the firmware made it worse not better. It's like it goes from polling 1000 then switches to 125 and then back to 1000 within the same 2 seconds.
Lets buy an ergo for my ergonomic fingertip grip xD
MM720
Now that I think about it shape literally does not matter for fingertip as long as its small and not too curved on the sides

SteelSeries has always felt cheap and not really worth it for me. Typically the mice always feel very sturdy though.

i got the prime mini wireless for 38 dollars so it was worth for me
ehhhhhh yo
I hate the 'crispy clicks' from PRIME, they are way too heavy. But for Aerox 3 wireless ghost, man, this shape and the improvements have made it my endgame mouse. 100% disagree with Boardzy.[personal preference]
Yeah the Aerox is actually really appreciated by ALOT of gamers and its the Endgame mouse for many.
