i was thinking of getting a ss mouse for my office. i prefer large mouse. somehow when i use my office's logitech mouse, my palms get tired because i need to grip the mouse.

btw, i was thinking ikari but i cannot make up my mind whether to go with laser or optical

anyone here tried ss xai?

what is good about this mouse that its price tag is able to reach over RM300? from what i see, it doesnt have weight adjustable, it doesnt have blings, and its side button on right side, its rather hard to press.

so, anyone here tried it before? feel like getting one for my office

firstly, i come here friendly and i dont want to start anything. i guess its either i have said it wrong or you guys misunderstand me. yes, i know both sides have button. 2 on each side. but from my experience, the right side (button 6 & 7) button is rather hard to press.

imo, the left side button is always click by using the thumb. index for left button and middle for right button. for the ring and little finger, its usually at rest. also, do you guys think its quite hard to press the 2 right button? for me, i think because the face of the little finger is facing downward. thus, making it a lil hard to press it. unless you use the side of your little finger. but for me, it wont be as accurate as using your thumb on the left button.

and for what i meant is on my previous post, wasnt about xai being over price or anything like that. i was wondering how good or what is its advantages of using it. and yes, i read a few review and it specifically said its very comfortable and there is alot of work done on the technology of the sensor. hence, its very accurate and precise. but as usual i would wanna listen from xai user here in lyn. to cut it short, i was merely comparing the advantages/performance of xai with other mouse that produce by logitech, razer, roccat, and so on.

but anyhow, thanks for the reply

btw, have you tried if before? is it really comfortable and accurate like what the review said?

i dont really mind if there is bling or not. as long as its comfortable to use. i use the mouse the whole day in the office so i really need a comfortable mouse.

hmmm.... if i ignore the 2 right button then why do i need to get xai? come to think about it, i might as well get kinzu since both xai and kinzu looks similar in shape and i dont really need that much button . maybe this week end go lyp to test it out if there is for display

yes, previously i was considering ikari laser. but when i saw xai, i kinda got poisoned

lots of review shows that its extremely comfortable and the important part is the accuracy of the mouse has been significantly improve. but nevertheless, i think i'll go to lyp to look for shows that has them in display so i could test it out

iinm, kinzu doesnt have any side button. but i thought kinzu and xai is almost similar in size? hmm... then i think i wont get kinzu. i prefer a large mouse

kinda agree with you though. but for me, price at RM300++ is not really a factor if the mouse is really good. just that when i think i wont be using the 2 right button, then it will be such a waste.

anyhow, after considering, i think i'll go with ikari laser its huge and i like it

i just came back from lyp just now, i really like the feel of ikari laser. imo, it kinda feels better than xai. i really like the curve of the ikari laser on the right. it kinda makes your ring finger rest on it. might get it soon

thanks everyone for the feedback

recently got a Ikari Laser. can i adjust the speed of scrolling using the driver? it seems that the driver doesnt have much option to tweak with.

but its definitely a very comfortable mouse

yes, i believe xai would be a very comfortable mouse but then there is something i dont like about it.

1. its a lil pricey for a mouse that doesnt have much feature on it. for RM300++ i have quite a few to choose from
2. the right side button. if i were to own a xai, i will only use the thumb buttons and the right side button will be a waste because its really difficult to click. so it will be a lil waste to buy such a expensive mouse but i dont use all of its feature.

other than that, i do believe xai is a very comfortable mouse.

btw, what i was asking is about adjusting the scrolling speed. i notice there isnt a option on the driver to let me do that. so, it cannot be adjustable?
