It is from Razer. The white version.

Anyway, anyone tried the Lycossa before? Comparing it to G15 and Tarantulla, which is better? It seems interesting here. Love to get one too...

Nice to see a good comment here regarding the lycosa. LOL...Anyway, the design of the keyboard really interest me. Will check it out at LYP soon enough.

My same concern here as well. If the rubber is the same material as the Razer mouse, i think i will give this keyboard a NO. My Krait's rubber material are starting to fade already.

LOL..Seriously, instead of worrying about dust and sticky surface, the problem for me is, how on earth i am going to bear with the problem when i know i am paying a huge amount for a keyboard..LOL.. I mean, i sure hope to get better quality for the price paid.

The buttons itself is rubber while the body is plastic. Well, i am using one and is satisfied by the price i paid for it (below RM100). Never tried other gaming mouse before so no comments about comparison with others but the Krait is definitely a good buy if you have a tight budget and wanted to try some gaming mouse. It does need to take some time to get used to the mouse though..

Just got the Razer Lycossa that i dreamt off since months ago. This gaming keyboard is certainly a beauty to look at

With illuminated lights on WSAD Keys only :


With illuminated lights at dark :

Well, i am not sure about other Razer keyboard but this Lycossa does come with the capability of turning it on or off or only the WSAD button.

I didn't notice this until i turned it on just now. Shocked to see there is no lights until i check out the manual

Well, its a gaming keyboard so i guess there is alot of settings i could play with especially the Macro Keys. I have yet to figure out all the stuff but its beautiful

Trust me, shifting from a normal mouse to gaming mouse takes time to get used to. It just the sensitivity that makes you feel weird. But after you get used to it, you never turn back to normal mouse.

Me? I took roughly 1 month + to be able to fully control the mouse though (i am a slow learner )

Listen to blacktrix. Comfortability is something you need to touch and feel it for yourself. I have a small hand and the Razer Krait is absolutely good for me. However, many would feel otherwise. Do look up some reviews on it first and better still, touch it to feel it

24 hours with only some small percentage of turning the PC off in almost 2 years and my Krait is still running fine

Why would the Fibertech surface be considered as a cons for the Everglide Titan? Its a good surface actually (for me) and its very nice. The only problem with the Titan is because the edges wears off very easily after a few years of usage and it tends to catch dust all around.

Regarding the Propad, i am not too sure as i have never used it before but the only problem i heard off its the friction between the pad and the mousefeet will cause the mousefeet to degrade.

Kinda agree with you here.

kellefe,

What you are trying to do there will only make yourself more confused than ever. We can only tell you the pros and cons of each mat but in the end, you will need to decide on your own. Better still, find some place to try it out (again) and see which one you like more. Look at your own budget still...

Anyway, blacktrix, by small and large, which one do you refer actually? The Titan as small? If it is, there is always a bigger Titan as in the DKT. LOL..

Besides, i bought the DKT and i am starting to feel its too big. Then only usage for me, is that it serves me well as a hand rest. I would rather get something smaller like the Titan or QcK Mini though.

One more thing, anyone tried the Razer In-Ear phones before (IIRC, its M100). Is it good for normal music listening instead of using it for gaming? Are the sound produced same like the Creative earphone (as they look alike)..

Thanks for the guide. Maybe i should search it out..

Wow..Its that great huh which obtains so many "get it" from you. Looks like its good. Will check it out and see. Anywhere that have these for testing?

Might be getting the m|100 really soon to see how it performs. Hope its better than my current Phillips SHE9500. This baby lacks bass badly.

Anyway, how much it cost anyway and from Razer site, it comes with an accesories that have 2 3.5mm jack. Whats that anyway?

Aeroplanes? I don't get it. Care to explain further? Which player supports the 2 x 3.5mm jack?

Thanks for the great explaination there as always mADmAN.

Didn't know about that though as i had only been on a plane once..LOL..

Loved the design of the DA as well. Definitely going to be my next aim if i wanted to change my Krait.

As off now, i am loving the Lycossa. I always have a mindset that gaming keyboard aint that suitable for typing but this baby here changes everything. Typing is extremely good and this keyboard is just a beauty to look at.

Pros :

- Its beautiful (Up to preference)
- Illuminated Lights (ability to On and Off)
- Macros Key (Not fully tested as still no time for gaming)
- Touch sensitive keys are just nicely done

Cons :

- The illuminated lights just aint bright enough even in the dark
- Catches dust/dirt very easily
- The USB jack seems abit loose

Just wondering, is this the reason why your friend conclude that the DA is better than the CH?

Krait user here as well..

Anyway, for me, its not that "I love the Krait so much and other mouse are crap" here. Its just that, for a beginner who have limited budget and shift from a normal mouse, towards a high DPI mouse (like the Krait) is an extremely good feeling. I mean, you can have a feeling of why you would love that mouse so much. That being said, its still not better than any of the higher end ones like DA, DB etc but its still a good mouse..

Besides, one reason i am still reluctant to go for something that look and performs nicer like the DA is because, i am used to a normal conventional mouse that have only 3 buttons. Yes, for gamers, more buttons = more customizability. But i have used a normal mouse will loads of button before (5 to be exact) and i kept pressing the wrong ones. Well, it might take some time to get used to it though.

As off now, as a budget gaming mouse for a mark below the RM100 range, i do feel the Krait is good indeed. Might not suit many people but still, for me, not a bad mouse..

Whats the point of having a nice mousepad if you will be using al-cheapo A4Tech mouse. Go for a Razer for best combination instead.
