Shape (and in some cases, weight) should be the main focus when it comes to choosing mice imo. Sensor accuracy and click latency are both so good that it's practically negligible now.

I’ve been waiting for this. Love your other videos as well, but these mouse testing videos are pure gold
great review - absolutely love the testing methodology you're building up here. One thing I could have liked to see on your latency bar chart is, next to the chart, also mention if the mouse is wireless or wired, and its weight in grams. That would give a great overview pointing people easily to the product they think has the properties most important for them in a balance they like.
your testing methods, your presentation, and your objective views (for such a subjective topic) are above and beyond. keep going what you do!
That's the video that I was waiting! A tier list would be amazing
Im so excited to see that testing equipment mature some more! Great vid!

I swapped to v2 pro after my g pro wireless start having right click issues (26 days after warranty ends). Feels kind of cheated with the omron 20mil clicks and went for razer gen 3 90 mil clicks switch in v2 pro. Was a heavy user due to work from home. I gave it to my dad for father's day, it is still functioning well for regular user. But for someone that uses it to game, it is not fun when you zoom in to snipe, the gun zooms back out. :v Also main reason I swapped is due to camera not turning in FF14 because you need to hold down right click down for the camera to turn. Sometimes the right click doesn't work, you die in raids because you can't turn the camera in the middle of the fight and dies. It happens 95%-99% of the time and it is not fun when it happens. So far I'm loving v2 pro. I no longer accidentally jump (in valorant) with the stiffer middle button. For g pro wireless, I keep accidentally touch the middle button and my character just jumps in the middle of gunfights. +_+ I hope the mouse can last at least 5-8 years this time around. The price for v2 pro is not cheap, it is freaking expensive. : O

@@pseudzy Yeah. It might sound weird but if you play games like valorant or csgo, there is something that almost everyone uses and it is called bhop (bunny hop). I think it can be done with regular spacebar but it is just a lot easier to bhop by binding jump to mouse scroll wheel down or up. But I find mouse scroll wheel down more intuitive and feels better. There are some spot that you don't make sound in map when you bhop like bhopping up a ramp as opposed to running. I think in csgo bhopping is also faster then just regular running. It also makes your character a harder target to hit jump up down left right. It can also be used to absorb less damage from mollies in Valorant because when you are jumping through the AoE molly, you are in contact with the molly for less amount of time so the molly does less damage to you.

One note, the superlight does have an incredibly good feeling and grippy coating but it wore off for me after one year of usage. It now has yellowish stains on many spots even though I keep my setup very clean. Dust and sweat free.

Great video once again, one mouse you should try is the pulsar xlite v2 wireless and v2 mini wireless. Both great mice. May be a little bias as I own the mini, but imo it’s better than the g pro x superlight.

Thanks for the review! Wondering what you think about the wireless "feature" of these mice. I currently use a cheaper Logitech M510 (and K350) on an Ubuntu system. I find that the communication with the dongle gets dodgy beyond about 6 inches. It has made me wonder if I should return to a leash (wired mouse). Thoughts?
Really like your content and reviews. Any chance of you reviewing the "newer" ROG mice? would like to see your thoughts on the ROG keris (wired version,because the wireless is pretty underwhelming with a worse sensor and 18 extra grams).
Glad you added the qualification around the latency being inconsequential to 98% of players. Still very interesting and kudos to your testing rig efforts - very cool. Looking forward to your Endgame XM2w review... :)
I always enjoy your videos, definitely going SFF because of your Videos. Cheers

Ali really needs to mention more about his efforts in these crazy review purpose custom machines he built.
I just upgraded from my old HyperX Pulsefire FPS which I bought 4 and a half years ago to a G PRO X Superlight and oh my god I felt the difference in like 1 second of opening it (Which was a few hours ago lmao). At first it felt like a toy because of how light it is, really feels like it is hollow inside, but man, I started a deathmatch in CSGO and felt GODLIKE, the mouse is just perfect. I'm still adapting to the new shape since it's a waay smaller mouse than I'm used to, but it already feels AMAZING. Couldn't be happier.
Great review and awesome benchmarks/rig. I actually also have all 3 of these mice... I think there's something to be said about how mushy the sidebuttons on the superlight are. The coating is A+++ and the reason why I gravitate towards it...but the side buttons are strait mushy booty and pretty bad for something like Fortnite if you have building binds on them. V2pro and Finalmouse side buttons are leaps and bounds better imo
I have one concern with the motion test. The result of movement from standstill might be majorly affected by how the sensor algorithm determines movement from standstill, and might not reflect the latency in motion. A better method could be method could be moving the mouse at a speed X and then accelerating it to speed Y, and detect the point where the speed changes compared to the command. The faster speed could use some insane power/speed, because the end speed doesn't matter, only the point where the speed changes.

I love the lovethe flatness of the viper, even though i have large hands, my gripstyle just fits it so well. I should mention that i have modifyed it to make it wider at curve where my pinkey sits, making it basically flat on the left side.
I don't want to cannibalize your youtube views or anything, but I find myself looking through many youtube videos trying to find your data on different mice. You rightfully compare the Superlight and Razer products in almost all charts, but the other ones vary. I basically just want to have a picture of ALL the data you have because it's the best I've seen. If you happen to have that and could drop it in a google doc or something, I'd be so grateful. If you can't, I might go ahead and look through all your videos and compile it myself.
I do wonder if the sensor lag numbers are at all influenced by the inertia of the mice (though that would track to real world use as the lighter mice have less inertia in your hand as well).
I've tried many different gaming mice but i keep coming back to Glorious O and D models. Feel the best and most comfy to me.
I'm so excited we finally get to see this new test rig in action
I bought an MM731 last week for 30 euros. It seemed to be the best value for the money. Best sensor on the market, optical switches, optional wired/wireless and super lightweight under 59g. I couldn't find anything that resembles this package at even double the price.
Seriously so cool you've got the testing machine, so good. Even LTT doesn't bother with this and they're huge!

A review that I didn’t know I needed!
Hello. Great video as always. I wonder why is nobody saying anything about Corsair mice like Sabre Pro? I think they are awesome for it's price point and also if you have larger hands ;-)
You could try and use Rawaccel to change the rotation of the sensor and that may solve some of the stair-stepping from mis-alignment. Not sure how it'd affect the latency though so it might require a separate test.
Are you using the provided mouse drivers for each mouse, or just plug and play?
Are you considering to make a review of the XM2 wireless when it comes out and give it a try? Wanna see your thoughts on it after playing with it for a fair bit of time.
I just really want Zowie to put in the effort and catch up tbh. I've been using various EC1 models for about 10 years. I've tried getting used to other mice but every time I go back to the EC1 it's like coming home to your own bed after traveling. The size and shape is just the perfect fit for me. A wireless lightweight EC1 would be like walking on clouds.
