just see how sensei raw rubber performs

Yeah, like my Xai. I dont mind really, better than Glossy surface. Glossy attracts dried sweat / sharp edges / slippery sweat.gif

Lol. RAW is RM299 bro, not 200.

As for Sensei MLG, I'm considering that over the RAW. Or maybe Fnatic edition. 100+ RM difference but a huge difference in performance. Second thoughts about RAW.

I don't see there will be a different performance since both had the same sensor.

LCD is not that important smile.gif

Yeah, I don't look at the LCD on my Xai. Just disappointed with the number of profiles available, only 1. I was actually referring to the ARM Processor which is missing from the Raw.

thx for telling me the price for da RAW  shakehead.gif

cry.gif
any comment on no-frill level 1?
and any1 know price for kinzu v2 or kinzu v2 pro?

as i know the diff btw these 2 is v2 pro having grossy surface + omron gaming grade button.. actuary i found it......er... the mouse i using now.. razer krait (which entry level also..) cost like rm9x ..even with omron button switch on it ,and ss old kinzu optical and v2 doesnt seems like having the gaming grade buttom.. and.. i believe v2 pro is not cheap also ?  hmm.gif

and which of the SS mouse is not using omron switch? as i not realy into its DPI or wat.. i fussy about the responsiveness of thier clicking only..**as i know.. sensei/xai those not disclosing or telling they have the omron switch.. so.. i dont think they got..**correct me if i;m wrong

haha these thing are so expensive, would nid price info to make some compare and decide hah
*
Xai and Sensei are using Omron switches. Actually now Omron switch are pretty common in gaming mouse already, you can double confirm by visiting the websites and click on specifications. If I am not mistaken, usually cheaper mice does not use Omron switches.

If you want a value for money mouse, I suggest the Xai. At 249, the performance of the Xai is excellent, maybe old but old is gold. Does not have the customisation features like the Sensei, but it is worth buying.

Yeah, need to wrap the Sensei with a cloth if you wanna take it with your travels. I once placed it together with my Siberia in a plastic, ended up with a huge scratch sad.gif

No. Wireless mouse and gaming are not a good pairing to be honest.

It depends. Some optical sensors are good, some are terrible. The one on the KANA is horrible, I still dont know why icon_rolleyes.gif

isnt horrible till say cannot use
but at that price its overpriced
i guess the reason is that people would buy it due to the design...
who knows  laugh.gif

I've used the DA before, not bad actually. But the Kana, very hard for me to do a proper drag shot with a sniper scope , some tracking issues there. Kinzu, still okay as well. The first time I used the Kana and this problem came up, I was like.. Oh boy, I'm bound to suffer. True enough. Design is brilliant, not much of the performance judging by the huge price tag. I would recommend one to add another 50 bucks and get the Xai.

That depends on how you take care of it. My Siberia v2 is 2 years old and counting, still working its charm without any defects.

Oh man, Steelseries is for rich guys only sad.gif

I dont agree with this statement.

It's up to personal preference actually. Honestly, I buy SS products is because of the design and quality. I like paying for quality products, pay for what you get. I dont mind spending on something that offers me performance, quality and good after-sales service. I think the distributor, Play Interactive are really good in terms of after sales service because they provide RMA claims for defected products and it took roughly 1 week, which is quite efficient for me.

One day, when you invest in any Steelseries product, you will fall in love with it. Investment... sometimes its worth the risk icon_rolleyes.gif

I only got the mousepad which is one of the cheapest in the store lol
I really like the features offered by the Siberia V2 with USB but spending about RM450 for a headphone?  ohmy.gif
Moreover, I'm only a student and can't bear to spend some much money in a headphone lol
*
I am a student too. I remember purchasing my very first Steelseries product, the 4H. Soon I upgraded to Siberia V2, then my passion for SS products grew and eventually followed by Xai, Sensei, 6Gv2 and various mousepads. I usually save my allowance and accumulate them before I make a purchase. As long as the product is long lasting, it is worth it.

Usually Cherry switches are quite durable. Tried taking out the caps and check for any blockage or could be a switch defect.

lol i fell in love with my 7h, at the same time fell out of love with it too. within the period of 6 months, RMA 3x. Right cups keep having no sound issue. Same goes to 2 of my other friends who owns one. Sure enough RMA fast n good, but what good is it if keep on kena RMA? What happens if warranty over?  D:

I have a friend who had issues with his 7H as well. I heard its the first batch of 7H seems to have faulty cups issue, not sure if its true. But 7H is the most problematic of the lot, compared to 5H and Siberia V2.

Whats the difference between siberia v2 and v1 until the price difference is RM200?
I'm afraid i'll run over the cable of the siberia v2 and it's dead..


Added on July 6, 2012, 5:18 pmAnd it the design looks almost the same with my current cheap headphones, have large earcups with the band which adjusts the tightness of the headphones..
*
v1 = 40mm driver unit
v2 = 50mm driver unit

And the band does not adjust the tightness, it fits by itself.
