Finally got my mouse & mat yesterday!
The chosen mouse: Logitech G400 @ Rs. 1580
The chosen mat: Razer Goliathus Fragged Edition Standard Control @ 700
Total: 2280
Here's my feedback of the above products:
The Logitech G400 feels like a sturdy & solid mouse. Initially the mouse felt big in my hands but getting the hang of it. One thing which could have been done away with is the small bump / hump just of the right of the right click button, which might have been put the to accommodate the little finger. This would have given a much cleaner feel to the mouse. I guess, in few days time I will get comfortable with the mouse. Overall I'm really satisfied about the mouse and Logitech does give 3 years warranty on its mice so actually you will have no reason to complain. There are very few mice in this price range which are game worthy and the G400 does carry the lineage from the MX518. Another thing which should be taken note of is that Logitech does not provide any drivers or software along with the product so basically you have to go to their website and download the software related to the G400 accordingly.
About the Raser Goliathus Standard Control mat, well initially i had done some research, and found out that the dimensions of Goliathus standard size mat was almost similar to the size of my Alienware m14x and which will also help is covering the laptop or act as a base for the laptop if required. And the size of this mat is actually adequate, anything bigger would actually had been an overkill, at least for me. This mat is a thick mat, and due to its rubbery base, it does stay at its place. It also has anti-fraying stitching along its sides which will prevent the sides from getting damaged and give the mat a longer life. Believe in me, when i say that I'm actually using the mouse and mat on my bed while I'm giving this feedback and its actually comfortable. Razer gives only 1 year warrant, but since the thing is without any electronic component, if you take care of your mat it will stay with you for a much longer duration.
Hope this feedback helps.
Oh! BTW, in all probability, my next purchase will be an Cooler Master Notepal U2 for my laptop. Inquired yesterday, it comes at about Rs. 1450 - 1500.
@
abanchii go for the Goliathus Control edition and kick the mouse into high-sensitivity mode to get the best responsiveness from the combo.
Hard mat is better for
LASER sensor. .
I totally agree, the mouse and the mat work in unison. The mouse just glides over the mat.
Thank you once again for your valued suggestions which helped me in choosing the products.
