Yeah rather interesting seeing more get into glass pads lately. I've been using Skypad for a while, 3.0 XL and it's a nice, I've heard they may consider making control one but yeah. Ah and there's also the upcoming machina ultima MCCCXXXVII with custom surface finish options, rather interesting.
there is a good chance it will. Thats why I am taking the sit and watch on this as the 1 year warranty they put on it is not insprining for it lasting long.
I counted 60 frames for razer (the video is 30fps clearly but youtube says its 60 so I measured 60fps - actually passed between 59 and 61) from boardzy letting go of his mouse for the base of the mouse to reach the bottom. 70 frames for the other pad to reach the bottom of the razer - seemed to just get stuck for longer at the start. To REACH the 5th white stripe along the right edge (from the veiwers perspective) on the top of the zebra pad the razer took ?27?ish and the zebra pad took 28? I think - this was much harder to measure. Frame 1 was counted as the first one where it was clear boardzy let go of the mouse. This measurement doesn't mean anything though because baordzy was holding the pads by hand lol # P.S. make your damn mouse pad bigger razer, who the hell do you think is using this pad?!? Its low sens gamers, boardzy says he uses 37cm/360 with a 6cm wide mouse he'll get 39/37 * 360 = 380 degrees of rotation. If he starts PERFECTLY in the centre of the pad - BARELY enough for ONE singular 180 which you obviously do a LOT espeically when building 90s etc. in games like fortnite but even just fast paced games where things that need your attention could be anywhere like overwatch. Razer would have my money in a heartbeat if it was 50cm+ like the skypad 3.0, that small amount of extra space makes a massive difference - you can play at a >10% lower sens (because the more you swign your arm the more curvature you can get which exponentially increases the distance you can get on your mousepad) and you don't really have to go anymore than 50cm as your arm can't really even use the extra space as it starts to rotate too much.
"what are they called? Beveled edges? I hope I don't sound like an idiot, let's just say rounded edges" gotta love the lack of pure unscripted content.
Having gone from the Skypad 3.0 to the Atlas. I found the Atlas to have more control than the Skypad, its odd that you found it to be the other way around. Do you not think that glass pads are good value for the longevity and quality of life they provide versus an Artisan?
What skates do you mainly use? I tested with tiger ice and stock feet for the most part. And no I think they are worse quality of life compared to standard pads without a doubt, they can be a better value long term but very few people actually get their moneys worth by using them for years on end
@Anc3stral that is a fair point, but I don't think the price would be equivalent. I've used tiger ice dots on a hard pad for 8 weeks and cant see any wear. Some users claim they need to change their pads every 4 weeks. They must be playing 10hrs a day 🤔
I had the original Icemat in white , currently using a black SteelSeries glass pads. Atlas from Razer looks a bit smoother and way bigger too👍. No inventory for the White one 😢
I used to have an Icemat 2.0 Black and swore by it - you can't get anything more consistent than glass because it doesn't wear out or distort in any way, and it's very easy to clean. Only issue with the Icemat is that it ATE Teflon mouse feet because the frosted surface was quite rough. I love the Atlas but it's very expensive for what it is - just a piece of glass with a rubber mat underneath.
What is your favorite mouse pad that is glass and what is your favorite overall. I’m just really cerrious because I want 1 or 2 new ones and you obv have a lot so.
If this isn’t your #1 glass pad recommendation, what is? I’d kind of like to try one but I’ve been holding off since I don’t want to drop $100 on one only for a new and better pad to come out.
not sure if you ever had one but how do these compare to the icemat? im currently using an icemat i got 20 years ago from my parents and im curious about these new ones afraid im ever gonna ruing my icemat knowing their cost today is insane
As someone with a couple skypads a superglide pad and an atlas, i actually prefer the atlas to the others, i love the rounded edges and the silky smooth finish, reminds me of the glass on my iphone, i guess im a weirdo too cause i found it to be ever so slightly more controllable than my other glass pads.
makes sense on that as they use an oleyphobic coating. My worry is it wearing out as razer only put a 1 year warranty on the pad. which seems oddly low compared to other products they sell.
i have got to say, i just got this thing and it is quite intuitive and feels very premium. but it is very very very smooth compared to cloth. especially when i have headphones on, whenever the sound isn't there it feels even smoother
i’ve been hunting a mousepad somewhere between the GSR rogue and the LGG venus, preferably closer to the GSR side as i love the stopping power/control but would love a sprinkle more of glide. any recs?
Will this ruin my Deathadder v3 mouse feet ? I mean first time i'm considering to buy a glass pad i wonder if this will not break my mouse feet pretty easily as the surface seem's not smooth at all it should be bad for keep mouse feet in good condition no ? Sorry for my english i'm a french sub lol
hello i've been using the za-13 for 6 years and wanna make the switch to wireless, would the xm2we be a good alternative? thanks in advance to whoever reads this
xm2we would be a good bit bigger. if you can wait just a little longer maybe 3 months you can see how the LGG LA-1 and Pulsar X2-H look as those seem really close to the ZA series and will likely fall around the ZA13 size for options available right now I think the G-Wolves HTS+ is close but the company has a bad reputation so def buy from Amazon if you get that
interesting that you say this pad is faster than the superglide and skypad but Fresh Reviews says that this is the most controlled of the 3.. hmmm shocking
starlight-12 w/ Esports Tiger Ice on the atlas has been the best with consistency compared to soft pads. Would like to use Ultralight X or Viper Mini SE.
some what my worry here is the coating. they only give a 1 year warranty. which seems pretty low for razer when their mice have a longer warranty than that.
I don't think so, boardzy didn't mention this but the problem with the Atlas is that it has an oleophobic coating on it whereas the Pulsar does not and I can't imagine the coating would last very long unless you literally have unlimited money to replace with.
@@turtlemaster9000 I will monitor the durability but given the fact they advertise durability and ability to clean the pad I doubt its something that will just deteriorate in weeks
just make sure to get a microfiber cloth and wipe it before gaming as hair and dust are super annoying if it gets caught by the skate. I would also suggest the puslar or skypad with cats as the coating razer uses may not hold up all that well to cat claws over time lol.
Is it okay to use glass skates on a glass pad ? I have skypad 3.0 and super glide skates on my gprox I have a artisan pad rn I use but the glass pad is from my old gpro
Bought it at best buy to try expecting to hate it and return it. Went from Gigantus V2 with GPX Superlight v2 to this and was instantly playing better, i love it
Hey Boadzy, I enjoy your videos, but maybe think about a better camera angle. I know these are mouse videos, but not everyone wants to look at your skinny, pale hairy wrists and creamy gentle, looking hands for 7 or 8 minutes on end. Or maybe they do. What the hell do I know lol I'm a new subscriber and have been binging many of your videos.
I just picked this up. First glass mouse pad, but I’m also experiencing my mouse randomly looking at the sky and spinning violently. Is this common on glass pads? I have a G303SE and even after cleaning the pad and mouse sensor I will randomly spin out.
i want to throw out why im interested in aglass mousepad i always buy nice cloth pads that get white and greasy then u have to go wash it alot and stuff with glass u wipe it down with window cleaner and youre done thats why im mainly interested in it
I can recommend you this one gaming mouse pad, I have the same and I like it. The DREAM MACHINES Pad L offers gamers a durable, non-slip rubber base, stitched edges, and a smooth surface that's compatible with both laser and optical sensors. The waterproof design protects against spills and ensures longevity. It's a must-have for gamers seeking optimal speed and control.
I just wanted to say the x2 is so good bro the coating you talked about is so good it makes the mouse feel much grippier then my other mice!

@@StaySic4Ever ty for info
Cerapad kin if you want some control. The osmium size is something that needs to be used in other mousepads for low dpi/sens users like myself
It is shocking how small it is, compared to the Pulsar Superglide XL. They need to bring up a XL Version.
Razer claims that they put a unique coating on the surface to makes it smoother, do you think will it wear out over time?
there is a good chance it will. Thats why I am taking the sit and watch on this as the 1 year warranty they put on it is not insprining for it lasting long.

They use fucking Bloody switches for some of them. From bloody keyboards which are like 20$ on aliexpress💀

i LOVE boardzy (hi boardzy)
❤❤
One thing I learned from this video is to stay hydrated. 😂
Shocking in consistently mid temperature, otherwise the mousepad might crack.
What is the name of the mouse pad that you place on top of the Razer?
I think it's the Skypad 3.0, he mentioned it during the slide test. I have not seen that design before though.
What is next? A water review? I count 4 bottles and every single one is filled
What is the best way to clean it?
any suggestion for FPS low sens and low dpi player ? i play cs/battlefield
would you recommend glass mouse skates?
