Got r1 pro as a replacement for my double clicking g305. Geez this thing is insanely good. Top tier coating, build quality, weight, switches, sensor etc. Ticks all of the boxes for a no brainer price.
I'm using the G305 with AAA lithium batteries currently, is it really worth upgrading? Also how much bigger is the size? My G305 gives me cramps after a few hours because my hands are too big for it...
@@houssamalucad753 I was using it with AA lithium battery. Yes, it's definitely worth upgrading R1 pro feels like feather in hand compared to g305. My hands are 18/9 R1 pro fits just right in my hand, so much more comfortable than g305 for long usage + it's easier to hold in general.

It just arrived. Damn this is amazing went from Fantech x9 thor for 4years to VXE dragonfly r1 pro. The weight change is crazy and It will 100% take me some time to get used to and the review is spot on.
Im using it still the best, if you squeeze it with force i mean like abnormal "you wouldnt hold it like that kinda force" it will creek on some parts. The sensor phenomenal 1k hz (no 4k donggle). The weight very balanced near the sensor which is pretty much almost perfect. Im using the grip it came with and it gets dirty extremely fast so i will remove it someday. The mouse itself is grippy it doesn't need the grips it comes with (just wanted to try it out). TL:DR Totally worth it mate. Totally playing osu with it rn, the shape is near "i think" with pulsar x2 & lamzu atlantis mini (my goal mouse someday).
@@Namika07 thank u so much 1 more question , do u plug the dongle directly to the pc port or u have the cable that u put the dongle in , then the end of the cable to the pc port , so the dongle will be close to your mouse
@@mohamedallouche5873 i have the usb dongle on the cable it comes with and it's connected to the back of my pc/motherboard.

To this day the battery last better than i expected i use the 30sec sleep timer (it wakes up very fast when move like no delay at all) i barely charge this thing and it sometimes feels weird that i don't have to charge it that much. I charge like once every 5 days will depend on your use case btw. Takes less than an hour sometimes even more less to fully charge. TL:DR I use the dongle with the cable so i can charge it on my table and still use my mouse (barely happens that i need to charge) and i don't struggle with connection issues for my whole time using it not even once. Weight of my mouse is like 52g with the grips. "If" you get it aswell hope you have a wonderful time using it.
Finally you reviewed it! I got the R1 SE since I don't need the premium features. I just need a good budget gaming mouse. The R1 SE surely delivers. I got mine for under 16 dollars. I can't complain that much. I got a solid unit too. No creaking, no rattly noises. Solid clicks. Highly customizable with the V HUB software. Best budget mouse I've used so far.
That's good to hear mate, I would've went at least for the R1 as the price difference at least now as I am writing this comment is very minimal but that's still amazing 🙏👍
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE. Every time you compliment it I kinda blush a little. I did so good by getting this one. Glad to see it got the seal of approval.
@brendandh3023 Thats great to hear man, on the VXE only the skates around the sensor are different but other than that the skates are pretty much identical
I've been searching for this, was wondering why there has not been a boardzy video on this incredible value mouse. I am getting it when regional vendors restock!
3:12 hello, I’m planning to buy the vgn 4k dongle, however, I‘ve read from Mad R Major that in order to achieve 8k, you need to have 240hz monitor. For the 4k dongle, does it have required hz of the monitor to achieve the 4k?
I wanted to thank you because with this video i've been able to get a wireless mouse without having to charge it with batteries for just 50$ with the option to upgrade to 4k dongle for a total of just 65$, while other mice with these specs from mainstream companies are 100$+
Thing that unfortunately kills Budget Mice for me, well any mouse really, are the high import fees - where I live its like 40USD. Great video and review
Just ordered that VXE R1 Pro Max for the larger 500mah battery without the 4K dongle. I currently am using Kailh 8.0 mouse so it should be very similar.
HE HAS SPOKEN Goated mouse, great specs for the price. How would you compare it with the OP1 Shape? Currently the R1 Pro seems a bit wide for me, but everything else is just PERFECT.
I havent really tried this shape but I tried attack shark x3 and didn't like the shape. Size was ok but it felt too wide at the back and couldn't reach the side buttons comfortably. Would you reccomend it for 17x10 hands with a relaxed claw grip? Currently using zaopin z1 pro.
I've just bought r1 pro and omg it's amazing 😍 it's lightweight and the shape is great ☺️ the only thing is the side second thumb button feels a little cheap. I'm used too the MX master and the button on that mouse is great.
attack shark 3 yg dimaksud inno x2 yg 4k kan bang? kalo iya, aku pernah make helios ii & inno x2 (sampe skrg masih dipake) overall masih lebih nyaman di inno. secara shape menurutku lebih enak di inno karna ga terlalu tinggi jadi lebih enak aja megangnya (tanganku 19,5cm). hal lain yg kurang kusuka dari helios juga karna klik & scrollnya yg lumayan berat, klo abang suka tipe klik yg clicky mungkin bisa pilih helios aja. tapi secara build quality emang lebih solid helios, coatingnya juga bagusan helios, cuma secara kelengkapan masih lengkap inno
In terms of QC and build I think yeah you should go with VXE R1 as these mice are presumed to be made in the same factory as other mice such as Sora v2/pulsar etc which have good QC, so yeah if you don't want a headache with mice I would choose quality
where can i get the r1 pro in preferably black in germany? i only found maxgaming as a seller and they dont have any colour in stock. Also, my dad doesnt approve of ali express. i just got my money back for the viper 8khz after using it for 1.5 years cuz the scroll wheel broke and it was in warranty still. my hands are 20x11cm and the viper didnt have a good hump to support my claw grip. Also, how is it with warranty with these mice? My budget is about 100€. if yall have any other recommendations pls lemme know❤
i saw a bunch of people having issues within a month of owning it , please make an update in a month, the main switches started making squeaking noice and even double clicks on pro max
I saw video here of chineses streamer trying the r1 and he used the logitech superlight to see the dpi deviation and it was like 0.50%, then he just lower the sens in game a bit and said it was perfect
In my country. r1 pro around 40 dollars and r1 pro max is like 60 dollars.The main difference is pro max have more battery. But i had this r1 pro for day using is very good around one week and the mouse like 30% battery . I think you don't need to paying more 20 dollars to get a same spec and better battery tbh. Sorry for my bad english
Thank you for sharing your experience, can I know how often you use the mouse in a week? According to the website, the battery will last 75 hours while using 1000hz on the r1 pro, and I intend to use it at 4000hz polling rate for at least 6 hours a day, I just feel like the battery is more important and the price difference is only 5 Australian dollars between the Pro and Pro Max@@toan6558
the first batch had a bad qc issues tbh, i got my r1 pro max last december, and the left click is loose and the scroll wheel is also loose, and the mouse rattles really badly, thank god i can fix it myself
i bought a white R1 Pro from 11/23 batch and a black one from 01/24 batch, ironically the white one has better clicks even tho it's from an earlier batch, everything else feels the same
@@otter2077 The black r1 pro from 12/23 and the white r1 pro from 02/24 that I own feels really similar. However, I noticed that the new batch have sponge on the side buttons to improve click tactility. Scroll wheels was a little slanted on the older batch, new batch fixed that issue.
Would you recommend the r1 se over the attack shark x3? The x3 has a lot of issues and some are sensor related. Ye it's a 3395 but like I'd imagine it's just a significantly worse experience overall
Just like he said, just don't get the SE. Get the regular R1. Even if you're on a tight budget, the price differential between the SE and R1 is negligible
Never had issues with x3 and I also own r1 and vgn f1 pro. Use kysona m600 software or send it back if you got bad copy. I got for example vxe r1 se to test it and the buttons would get stuck in the back if not pressed for some time. Probably bad copy.
Hi Boardzy! Just want to get some recommendation, I'm torn between 3 mice, the mchose ax5 pro, phylina s450 4k, and this vxe r1 pro. Basically I want to try the 4k polling rate, what do you think is the best among the three in terms 4k implementation and build quality. Thank you! Note: I just play Valorant and nothing else lol
Ordered this medium sized boy for my big and girthy gym bro hand 21x11cm, using mainly claw with a bit of fingertip-claw also sometimes aggressive palm-claw, hope it's gonna be good for my hand size
My left click also squeaks when de-pressed. It doesn't bother me when gaming since I don't hear it, but when doing school work, the squeak noise gets annoying.
I bought an r1 se+. Switches huano transparent pink shell pink dot Encoder Kailh ge Battery 520 mah Mcu Compx Sensor 3335se Also in set is only a mouse,cable and dongle.Without a usb adapter type c to usb a.(Only in pro and pro max version)
Hey Boardzy, can you do one with Budget gaming mice such as Darmoshark, Vxe R1 and like maybe Razer series that are really good for a budget variant like Razer Viper or the 8khz maybe Ps: I included darmoshark for its large shape size and for its weight. please it would help some majority of us that are looking for a really good budget gaming mice for fast moving games and also for competitive fps ones
Hey i got the pro max for the battery life. Would you say it was worth it? I can totally still cancel the order and get the pro version instead rn, so I'm looking for a second opinion.
Aren't these just VGN dragonfly but with a slightly altered naming scheme? VGN also makes the VGN Dragonfly F1 Moba which also uses huano blue shells and also weight about 53g
How is your sora v2? Mine just came in and my mouse 1 has like a squeaky click, like something very loud that is noticeable from a normal click like on my mouse 2
Just by looking at this mouse, Isn't it just a slightly bigger OP1 shape? It has no front flares at all, and looks longer and narrower than pulsar mice.
My F1 unforinatly broke after about 8 months or so. The switches were an issue, and now I'm thinking to buy R1 Pro, is it worth it? Are the switches better?
Been using the VXE R1 Pro for about 2 months now. No issues absolutely love this mouse. I'm coming off using the Pulsar X2V2 Mini and the Endgame Gear OP1WE, the R1 Pro actually beats those 2 mice for me in terms of click feel, coating. The shape of course is subjective but its a really good and safe shape.
Hello boardzy, i used to have a Bloody A70 😂 but i broke it in rage. I now play valorant alot so i was wondering what mouse i should get. I was considering the Razer viper v2 pro and the Lamzu Maya. Please respond and tell me which mouse i should get thank you.
Don't get maya nor viper too overpriced both of those, I mean it depens on your grip style and hand size of course, razer viper is long and flat mostly and fits fingertip mainly with maybe a bit of claw, maya is a mini GPX so a potato shape for any kind of grip style, now it depends on your hand size, I would personally go for the maya just because it's a lot safer if you have small-medium hands, or medium hands aswell, if you have bigger hands don't buy the maya will feel to small. Anyways what I would recommend is measuring your hand size, mine is 21x11 for example, I personally main the g303 shroud because I claw grip, and I ordered the R1 Pro max. Anyways tell me your hand size and main grip style or styles if you can use more than one comfortably, and I will give you a few recommendations.
How is the mouse? I used 2 wired mouses and both had some disconnecting and connecting issues. I decided to try wireless that are the same price as wired and i saw this mouse. Is there any problem you are having? Especially after a month.
can you pls reply to this im confused between the attack shark x3 pro vs the vxe r1 non pro version which one in your opinion is better and which one would you recommend buying
The weight of the mouse. R1 pro is 49g and R1 pro max 53g and larger 500mah battery compared to the r1 pro..... Both of them actually the same in terms of performance just R1 pro max a little bit heavier and more battery capacity compared to the R1 pro.
Hey boardzy I hear a slight rattle on my r1 pro when i shake the mouse side to side. My theory is that it's just a wire because its like the source of the rattle is still attached to something. Would like to know if your copy has this aswell
I have 18.5 x 10.5 and use VGN dragonfly for relaxed claw. I tried vxe and sent it back due to side buttons being literally ingrained in the shell which I find it strange that it was not mentioned since other reviewers have also verified. Haven't tried mchose but I am sure I am going to like it since I like mice from 121-124mm. Each has approximately 0.5cm less length than the other with vxe being shorter and mchose longest.
Flat with comfort grooves from what I've read they feel better than any other mouse claw grip mouse like x2/xm1/atlantis etc, now Idk I ordered my r1 pro max will wait when i get it
Yeah,if you dont give a f about the coating,4khz , different switch and the nordic chip,VXE R1 is the best.I also just bought the R1 cause i only want the good sensor
i have both r1 pro and attack shark x3. i didn't like the shape of shark x3, but even with that put aside, r1 feels soooo better in hand compared to the shark x3, which feels super cheap
LETS GOO HE REVIEWED IT
Some points
The Pro Max uses the new Kailh "white sword" switches, but I guess internally very similar if not same as GM 8.0
Pro uses Huano "frost berry" which is said to be the same as the transparent blue shell pink dot just in different color
VXE is indeed a sub-brand of VGN (or like same owner owns both companies, you can never know with these chinese companies)
As far as I know this comes out from the same OEM as Lamzu and Ninjutso, not sure if Pulsar is made there tho.
The VXE/VGN factory make some parts for Pulsar. Scroll wheel, shell, coating process are the ones I can confirm. No need to buy $110 Lamzu/Pulsar shit
What switches does normal R1 have compared to the others (for example R1 Pro)
@@razleftwI agree just buy $30 mouse you won’t be disappointed. 4k, coating, optical switches are just myths

Would you recommend the r1 se over the attack shark x3? The x3 has a lot of issues and some are sensor related. Ye it's a 3395 but like I'd imagine it's just a significantly worse experience overall
Just like he said, just don't get the SE. Get the regular R1. Even if you're on a tight budget, the price differential between the SE and R1 is negligible
@@stopsendingmetrapshave you used the SE before?
@@Condred I haven't used it for a long period of time like Boardzy did
Never had issues with x3 and I also own r1 and vgn f1 pro. Use kysona m600 software or send it back if you got bad copy. I got for example vxe r1 se to test it and the buttons would get stuck in the back if not pressed for some time. Probably bad copy.
Hi Boardzy! Just want to get some recommendation, I'm torn between 3 mice, the mchose ax5 pro, phylina s450 4k, and this vxe r1 pro. Basically I want to try the 4k polling rate, what do you think is the best among the three in terms 4k implementation and build quality. Thank you!
Note: I just play Valorant and nothing else lol
VXE r1 pro easiest decision ever
Ordered this medium sized boy for my big and girthy gym bro hand 21x11cm, using mainly claw with a bit of fingertip-claw also sometimes aggressive palm-claw, hope it's gonna be good for my hand size
can you help me? i cant choose where can i buy it? on aliexpress i cant find any good versions
My left click also squeaks when de-pressed. It doesn't bother me when gaming since I don't hear it, but when doing school work, the squeak noise gets annoying.
I bought an r1 se+.

Hey Boardzy, can you do one with Budget gaming mice such as Darmoshark, Vxe R1 and like maybe Razer series that are really good for a budget variant like Razer Viper or the 8khz maybe
Ps: I included darmoshark for its large shape size and for its weight. please it would help some majority of us that are looking for a really good budget gaming mice for fast moving games and also for competitive fps ones
yoo have you tried the SE+, if you havent could you please review it?
Hey i got the pro max for the battery life. Would you say it was worth it? I can totally still cancel the order and get the pro version instead rn, so I'm looking for a second opinion.
what do you think after 1 month ?
what's that pad under your mousepad?
Aren't these just VGN dragonfly but with a slightly altered naming scheme?
VGN also makes the VGN Dragonfly F1 Moba which also uses huano blue shells and also weight about 53g
Its a different shape entirely but yeah same manu/partent company
How is your sora v2? Mine just came in and my mouse 1 has like a squeaky click, like something very loud that is noticeable from a normal click like on my mouse 2
I just bought the VXE R1 SE mouse, let's see if it lives up to the hype.
How is it a week later?
Would like a comparison with this, OP1, and Sora V2.. Been maining this for a while and wondered about the other two
Would this be good for FPS games like valorant?? Or should I go for another mouse?
wait so do you need to get a vgn dongle for this thing to work well?
Just by looking at this mouse, Isn't it just a slightly bigger OP1 shape? It has no front flares at all, and looks longer and narrower than pulsar mice.
My F1 unforinatly broke after about 8 months or so. The switches were an issue, and now I'm thinking to buy R1 Pro, is it worth it? Are the switches better?
Been using the VXE R1 Pro for about 2 months now. No issues absolutely love this mouse. I'm coming off using the Pulsar X2V2 Mini and the Endgame Gear OP1WE, the R1 Pro actually beats those 2 mice for me in terms of click feel, coating. The shape of course is subjective but its a really good and safe shape.
Is keychron m3 mini wireless comes close to this mouse? Where I am the cost is very close but only difference there is a local store selling keychron.
delux m800 pro or VXEr1 pro?
Would you use this over a Logitech g pro x superlight or my current mouse the logitech g703?
Hello boardzy, i used to have a Bloody A70 😂 but i broke it in rage. I now play valorant alot so i was wondering what mouse i should get. I was considering the Razer viper v2 pro and the Lamzu Maya. Please respond and tell me which mouse i should get thank you.
Don't get maya nor viper too overpriced both of those, I mean it depens on your grip style and hand size of course, razer viper is long and flat mostly and fits fingertip mainly with maybe a bit of claw, maya is a mini GPX so a potato shape for any kind of grip style, now it depends on your hand size, I would personally go for the maya just because it's a lot safer if you have small-medium hands, or medium hands aswell, if you have bigger hands don't buy the maya will feel to small. Anyways what I would recommend is measuring your hand size, mine is 21x11 for example, I personally main the g303 shroud because I claw grip, and I ordered the R1 Pro max. Anyways tell me your hand size and main grip style or styles if you can use more than one comfortably, and I will give you a few recommendations.
Shocking to see a review coming out after using it for months
How is the mouse? I used 2 wired mouses and both had some disconnecting and connecting issues. I decided to try wireless that are the same price as wired and i saw this mouse. Is there any problem you are having? Especially after a month.
@@moshbtw no
@@moshbtwI don't know I just ordered mine today the R1 pro max will see this bad boy when I get it
@@noweirdstuffallowed3486well what about now, any problems?
Does this not come with the basic dongle? I have no need for the 4k
Hi! Thanks for the video! Do you still recommend it?
is there any difference between the black version coating and the white version coating?
is this the same as VXE Dragonfly R1 Pro? And which is better? This or Zaopin Z1 Pro?
Yo boardzy are you gonna drop a new video for the superlight 2 when the 4k polling rate firmware update drops
Can someone tell me a comparison of the vxe r1 vs the vgn f1. Like mostly with the shape?
Yes. Just the shape. Same company, different mouse shape. Same internals.
Is it good for a 16,5/9 cm hand? Relaxed claw/fingertip... I use RVM and i'm afraid If the r1 pro is too wide for me
Dumb question, but do these wireless mice work at their max polling rate while plugged in?
what is your hand size? i have 20x11cm hands. use a relaxed claw on g402. will this be too small?
can you pls reply to this
im confused between the attack shark x3 pro vs the vxe r1 non pro version which one in your opinion is better and which one would you recommend buying
Hey what did u buy?
For me i was going to get attack shark x3 , but a lot of users complain that it will stop tracking after a while
between this and the sora v2 witch one should i get? is the price difference justifiable knowing that mouse will only be used for gaming
If they're produced in the same factory, def get the VXE, actually get 2 of these
I grip palm and which one should I buy vgn f1 pro or vxe r1 pro?
Just ordered an R1 Pro W/ dongle. Cant decide between xraypads jade skates and pulsar superglides, any opinions? On an ac2 sakura.
Bro just use the default
@@mohamedallouche5873 lol i got corepadz with a few more pads ac0 & lgg neptune. I want to fine tune my aim
Can I have advice if I want xm2we vs van r1 pro what would u will take for me ? My old mouse is xm1r
so i want to change from fantech aria xd7 to VXE R1 Max pro, is it worth it or no?
So why do you recommend the r1 pro over the r1 pro max? Whats the differences between them?
The weight of the mouse. R1 pro is 49g and R1 pro max 53g and larger 500mah battery compared to the r1 pro..... Both of them actually the same in terms of performance just R1 pro max a little bit heavier and more battery capacity compared to the R1 pro.
Is good for a 16,5/9 cm hand ? I use a RVM and i'm afraid the r1 pro is too wide
Wow! I am shocked by this gaming mouse budget $50 the VXE is a new brand for the mouse with pro using huano, pro max and se as well.
Hey boardzy I hear a slight rattle on my r1 pro when i shake the mouse side to side. My theory is that it's just a wire because its like the source of the rattle is still attached to something. Would like to know if your copy has this aswell
I just ordered a r1 pro max will get here by 16 march it says, will let you know then
@@claimdud3104lmk bro
I'm deciding between 3 mice: mchose A5 pro max, vgn f1 pro max and vxe r1 pro max. I hold the mouse finger tip style. What is the best choice?
I have 18.5 x 10.5 and use VGN dragonfly for relaxed claw. I tried vxe and sent it back due to side buttons being literally ingrained in the shell which I find it strange that it was not mentioned since other reviewers have also verified.
Haven't tried mchose but I am sure I am going to like it since I like mice from 121-124mm.
Each has approximately 0.5cm less length than the other with vxe being shorter and mchose longest.
yo boardzy have u tested the new 4k Hz polling rate firmware update for the gpx superlight 2
Sorry for the late question but how are the sides? Are they kinda curved in or completely flat like the X2?
Flat with comfort grooves from what I've read they feel better than any other mouse claw grip mouse like x2/xm1/atlantis etc, now Idk I ordered my r1 pro max will wait when i get it
vxe r1 pro better then the darmoshark m3?
I bought this exact mouse month or two ago. For 50 bucks there are no competition to this
I think the website is bugged. Says a mouse is under $40.
I got the R1 that got same sensor of the pro but no coating, I think the 15$(35$ vs 50$) diference wasnt worth for the coating, i think...
Yeah,if you dont give a f about the coating,4khz , different switch and the nordic chip,VXE R1 is the best.I also just bought the R1 cause i only want the good sensor
how does the clicking quality feels is it good? did it get worst over time?
Have you tried the attack shark x3 or the fantech aria xd7? Would you say its better than those mices?
i have both r1 pro and attack shark x3. i didn't like the shape of shark x3, but even with that put aside, r1 feels soooo better in hand compared to the shark x3, which feels super cheap
