Hi guys, I'm torn between getting a XAI or an Ikari. Besides the shape being different, what else is different between the two?

Oh ok. How about the build quality?
I read around that the non-slip rubber coating comes off after awhile.
Does that happen with the XAI as well?

just got my Sensei today.
Really like it!

your sensei surface peels? i just got my sensei. panicking. lol.

oh phew...
i thought it peels off for no reason.
i'll definitely handle it with care. so ex...

the midvalley shop you mentioned is MCS Tech and Add-Ons i think. will the prices there be higher because its midvalley or is it controller by playinteractive?

ahahhaa. this is super stereotyping at its best.

so many inside shots of the Kana but nothing official yet?

guys, my sensei died for no reason today.
the lights work and both the left click and right click button works too. the cursor just doesn't move at all. i tried viewing the laser light using my hp camera to see if there's a purple light but nothing at all.

has this happened to anyone before?

guys i'm having a problem. my sensei cursor keeps getting stuck. my sensor died once and they RMA it and now this problem happens. should i send it back?

I think they sent me a new one, but the minute i plugged it into the pc, my settings were in it so I'm not sure. It was a sealed box. Also I noticed that the bottom of the mouse had a few wear marks so I'm really not sure. The shop told me they replaced it.


Here's my settings:


It happens sometimes but yesterday it was crazy. I had a mini lan party at my place so i moved my desktop into the hall. The cursor suddenly gets stuck when I was playing LoL, so I tried to rapidly move it around to sort of unstick it. Then it'll be fine for a while before it happens again. I read somewhere that the SS engine could be causing it because of the profile switching but I didn't switch any profiles. So I manually stopped the SS engine to see if the problem stops. It didn't.

Please note that my mouse is always on contact with the table/mousepad so its not an issue of lifting the mouse (sensor not detecting surface).

My settings are not the stock ones. I changed a few things to suit me.
I use a uber high lift off distance because of this problem. I thought it was me lifting the mouse too high from the surface. But it seems thats not the case.


I didnt keep the old serial number la. maybe in the old receipt. Looks like I will resend back and ask for a replacement. I don't want someone elses RMA'ed mouse.

Note: It happens on other profiles as well. So I don't think its the settings.

I was wondering if other Sensei owners are having this problem as well. This is terrible for a RM400 mouse. Wonder if they can let me swap it for a Kana.

xai? hmmm... nevermind, its too early to think of alternatives. I figured they won't let me swap. Just need to know my options in case my sensei dies on me AGAIN.


I can't really notice the difference in lift distances. Maybe I'm not sensitive.
I'm using a QCK.

I'll bring it to the shop tomorrow and see how. Damn it. It will be the second time I'm sending it. My main issue is trying to replicate the problem for them to see and as of now, I don't know what triggers it.

Ok I'll go back and try that.
Currently I'm using it in office with my laptop and there's no problem at all. I don't have the SS Engine installed on my laptop tho.

Some forums mention that cloth pads on high DPI can cause tracking issues. Could it be because of dust trapped in the sensor? I'm using it on a table now and there is no problem.
I just need to figure out a way to replicate the problem consistently for it to be considered an issue. If it's a random occurrence, I doubt if i can RMA mine.

Can i save it to my mouse and then re-install everything? I can manually set the settings if required but I'm just wondering if this is possible.

i re-installed the engine but the jitter still happens occasionally. still have no clue what triggers it. maybe dust? my mousepad is quite clean. i can't believe it's this sensitive. before I RMA my old sensei and got this one, there was no such issue.

I did that. deleted appdata also. then redid my settings.

When i installed the SS Engine, there was a pop-up saying programming and the mouse logo was blinking. Is that updating the firmware?

it hanged then it said disconnect and re-connect. after that no problem. but that jitter issue still happens. funny thing is it doesnt happen when i dun use my mousepad and when i dun have the SS Engine installed.

nah it doesnt hang anymore. it managed to update after i re-connected it. then it updated till the end.

still got the jitter problem..wondering if its the mouse, mousepad or engine.
