Endgame XM1R Dark Frost Review - Best Wired Mouse of 2020/2021
Just got my XM1R dark frost. Absolutely love the mouse. Checks all the boxes. Texture, grip, weight, cable, components, switches, build quality, etc. If the shape works for you, highly recommend giving it a try.

Great points you have on this mouse. Thanks!
I used (palm-claw grip) And maybe i buy this mouse. THX for review.
Just ordered the black one with the gold-type of logo, excited to pick it up next week
Let me know how you frag on it!
@@FreshReviewsYT I’ll let you know!
@@marzipan3503 how is it?
@@thaqo8510 It’s perfect! By far the best mouse I’ve ever tried! Reacts insanely fast. I recommend it!
@@marzipan3503 that’s great! Can I ask, what type of grip do you use?
It's been a year since you last posted this how is the mouse holding now? is it still good? the quality? are the buttons still the same? I recently got my orochi v2 and I'm planning to return it because of it's small size, gave me hand cramps and getting I'm this one instead. I'm a bit curious on the difference of coating, endgame themselves tweeted that the dark frost is best for sweaty hands but the finger print and oil leaves mark on some people, do you clean yours daily?
Solid review! I can't wait for the XM1 wireless! What shape do you prefer for claw/fingertip at 20x10cm, RVU or XM1?
For claw probably the rvu. For finger tip either one works great for me
When wireless coming?
@@assassin7250 Wish I knew
@@FreshReviewsYT I just ordered myself xm1r. But I’m curious.. is the cord long? Is 1.7 a long cord? Cause if that’s the case I got myself a cord holder just in case
@@assassin7250 every wired mouse has a long cable so you always need a mouse bungee
Good review i love this mouse :-) what was your nickname in your cs 1.6 pro days?
Thank you! Nickname was Kimber
would be happy to know of what is your keyboard?
what are your hand measurements?
Great review! Where did you get this cool retro extended mousepad?
Thanks! It’s from Space Cables
What's your hand size?
Is that a gmmk pro compact with alpherior keys translucent KeyCaps? If it is that’s the exact same keyboard I have with the same mouse 😁😁
Haha it is a gmmk compact with Pom jelly keycaps
cool 👍👍👍
best mouse I've used, just need it wireless!
for real!
I really have been considering this mouse but I'm worried about it being too big. Compared to the model O wireless how much bigger would you say this is? Great vid as always!
Haha just got to the comparison point! Thanks!
it's actually smaller. I do a comparison between them at the end of the video
@@FreshReviewsYT haha yup I jumped the gun a little bit there. Really digging the content!
@@tapout221 love it . Thanks! Will start upgrading the setup and cameras as I go lol
if this shape good for relaxed claw grip?(palm-claw) palm is touching mouse, and fingers are in little arc.
Very good. That is primarily how I grip the mouse “most” of the time
should i still go for xm1r or wait till xm2w is out? cuz where i live its not available but i have a relative that can get it, the only thing is xm2w seems to be taking a long long time so idk if my relative will already be back by that time
Hard to say. We need an update from endgame tbh
@@FreshReviewsYT hopefully soon cuz time is really a big factor for me for choosing between these mice
Do you think the Hump is better for Tilted Claw Compared to S2?
I’d personally probably prefer the s2 for that type of a grip but it depends on your hand size
Did you end up liking the NP-01 more or the XM1?
I like the new Vaxee outset better than both. Video out soon
do you think this mouse works with 17x9 hands, coming from a viper mini and i use a claw grip
for palm grip under 18cm to feel comfortable, claw or finger tip 19.5 n up - Rocketjumpninja
Eh, I'm 17.5x10 cm, and claw feels great for me on it.
Hey fresh! What is your hand size again??
A little over 21cm
hey, would you mind sharing where one can buy such an awesome mousepad? and Is your keyboard the same as the one with colored/stickers on the keys i saw in one of your last vids? would appreciate the info :D
Mousepad is from space cables and the keyboard is a glorious gmmk compact with Pom jelly keycaps from 1upkeyboard
I'm so confused. I always thought it was pronounced "hottie". So it's ha-tee?
freshhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyy
Nachooooooo baby!
what keyboard is that? looks nice!
It’s actually just a bare bones gmmk compact that I added lubed roselios switches to with Pom jelly sugar keycaps
Is it better than model o minus bro? In terms of sensor?
It is!
How did you get one ? I been searching everywhere buts all sold out
It was up on amazon for about a day
what is the difference between normal Xm1r and dark frost Xm1r ??
Only the shell
Which is better between the two pair mouse feets?
depends if you want more or less glide! if you under aim the bigger skates can help
Crispy... ;)
Giggity
my RVM broke after 8 months and im looking for a possible upgrade to xm1r, i have a 17.5 x 8.5 hand size and a fingertip grip, do you guys recommend it or are my hands too small?
You might like the prime mini wireless or pwnage symmetrical 2 wireless
@@FreshReviewsYT both's not avaible in my country unfortunately, got more recommendations? or maybe i can claw the xm1r but im really not sure lmfal
Xm1r might be quite big for you, but if you’re able to return it, it might be worth a try
@@FreshReviewsYT yo, I was actually wrong about my hand size, I thought you don't measure the thumb too when measuring the width, I actually have 18 x 10 hand size would it fit me or still no? thank you
@@zuo5773 it would be fairly tough. But, I feel it would either be an instant I love this or I absolutely hate this, depends how aggressive your fingertip grip is and if you’d be comfortable clawing it. The mouse is long and the back hump feels a bit high
What's your dpi and sens for valorant?
I’m on 800 dpi. I forget right now what my in game sens is but I believe I linked it in another comment
Can someone please tell me where I can get a sensor ring/feet/skate replacement for the xm1r
It doesn’t look like tiger ice skates or corepads come with the sensor ring skate yet
@@FreshReviewsYT yeah all good man, I got a reply from endgame they said they’ll sell them soon but it apparently works fine without
Nice review! What's your current main?
Current main wired mouse is the xm1r. Current main wireless mouse is the xenics Titan gx wireless. Having fun swapping between the two
@Micah Hauger Ebay. Bought a second copy today. It is 78 USD and 25 USD shipping
@@FreshReviewsYT your new main is the orochi v2 right?
@@potion95 yea been my main for awhile now!
where did you purchase this mouse, i want to have it?
Amazon and lethalgaminggear have endgame gear products in stock. I went through Amazon for this particular mouse
@@FreshReviewsYT how much did it cost for you when you purchased the mouse because im currently looking on amazon and it shows it for $95
@@mrpenis6969 it shouldn’t be more than 59 or 69.
Does the Dark frost coating gives you shudder feeling ? Cuz looking at the way dark frost looks gives me a shudder feeling compared to white and black ones or it feels different that it looks ?
Wydm? Lol
Sounds like the XM1 is smaller than Model O. Beware though, the Model O is way lower overall AND thinner. Therefore it feels smaller in hand than the XM1, especially because of the width difference.
Is the coating same as regular xm1 ?
No. Vastly improved
@@FreshReviewsYT Had the same question for you. I heard the Dark Frost version has a bit of a rubbery feeling to the coating, is that what you felt?
@@patkluivert4110 no it didn’t feel rubbery to me. It feels very dry almost like a POM material
Is the coating the same for all the colors of the xm1r?
@@Mal-nf2sp I am actually not too sure. I only copped the dark frost edition
How are u liking the clicks ?is it too stiff like huano switches?
The switches aren't stiff like the kailh 4.0's. Pretty balanced
@@FreshReviewsYT I cant wait to try it on my hands.Thank you
@@FreshReviewsYT what game do u play sir?
@@kikothomas9989 valorant and apex right now
@@FreshReviewsYT are u a streamer?
"This mouse is good for... (lists every element of fps gameplay)" lol
