Which makes me wonder why Razer stuck back to 3.5G laser in the first place... laugh.gif Is the BlueTrack technology Microsoft patented?? huh.gif

Huh?.. what u meant by "stuck back"?..

'Laser 3.5G' its Razer latest technology, theres no other mice has it.

And yes, BlueTrack tech its inhouse developement by Microsoft, if not it will be like Microsoft Habu which has a Razer logo on it.. heh tongue.gif

Maybe the laser engine suites to hit up 5600 DPI ....

Difference of the tracking engine compare to the Death Adder infrared I think... so that they made Mamba since to be more comfort and stylish as their main point for selling

While X8 yeah Sidewinder should learn be more stylish like Razer Mamba but they hit on mid-budget ... actually in US their official selling is 99 USD while they can get the 75 USD price which Mamba couldn't

Comfort+Stylish and Ergonomic looks(improve after Sidewinder =X)

Also .... 5600DPI Laser and 4000DPI Bluetrack ....

well Lasers versus Blue Optical

thats why both hard to be compare... if I have the money I should own both ..... =X

Luckily they don't follow Razer... siaoz... imo not worth at all, as i mentioned earlier ur paying alot extra for the "display box".. literately... lol

Extra rm100+ its way too much sweat.gif .. rm50 more still can consider... rolleyes.gif

Imo, Sidewinder X8 its the most 'Bang for Buck' wireless/wired mouse, even some places in U.S. selling for just mere us$50bucks!.. shocking.gif

And abt the dpi, imo its one of those "why not" kinda deal, not that useable... theres no one i know uses more than 3000dpi with sensitivity max.

Especially im one of those ppl use very high-sensitivity (i set sensitivity at 20 for CS).

Cheers flex.gif

one question regarding the x8 mouse. If u take out the battery and plug in the usb cable, will it work without the battery on cable?

The x8 bulk is giving me pressure between Gigabyte Ghost, and x8. doh.gif

I just notice this while watching the bluetrack demo video.
I guess 3.5g laser wins.

Hey peeps!, my friend just bought her Sidewinder X6 few weeks ago, and she noticed her keys faded!.. blink.gif

Dam.. is it a bad batch or what..

Anyways, to make matter worse, she sent back to the shop for rma.

A few days later, the shop that she bought from said "You can't claim warranty because its just fade keys, as the keyboard still working"... shakehead.gif

Its there such thing?.. i mean few weeks only and the keys faded liaoz.. and yet can't claim warranty?.. wth...

Does anyone know the distro (contact number) or rma department for Sidewinder X6?..

At the same time i wanna find out too, as i myself using one and no keys faded so far.. *cross fingers* sweat.gif

I meant.. its a gaming keyboard... yet so easily fade wan.. rclxub.gif

Enigmare

Actually, the sales person is quite right. Faded keys are wear and tear - so long the keyboard is still working, I doubt they'll make an exchange for you. Faded keys are quite normal I guess - it's the way the product is design. Sometimes, some people's fingers have nails which, can scratch off paint..ouch. laugh.gif Those oso u can't blame the seller or Microsoft what...

My X6 hasn't faded at all dude, and it's been a month or so since I've had mine. Maybe ur friend's fingers are toxic? laugh.gif

I understand if the user used it more than few years, but not even a year... sweat.gif

Fyi, Logitech and Razer does replacements for faded keys within warranty period, and Microsoft such big company doesn't?...
