In this part of the video, Dmitry explores the x-lite super glide, a unique mouse with tempered glass feet. He discusses its exclusivity, noting it’s a limited edition with only 2,000 units made due to the manufacturing challenges of tempered glass feet. The mouse is lightweight at 57 grams, featuring advanced components such as KLG M8.0 switches and a PAW 3370 sensor with 20K DPI. Dmitry praises its ultra-smooth glide, recommending a cloth mouse pad to add control due to minimal resistance. Additionally, he introduces the game ball mouse, an ambidextrous, trackball-equipped device priced at $148, suitable for both right and left-handed users.

In this segment of the video, the presenter discusses the ergonomic design and functionality of a heavy, stationary cleaning mouse with ceramic bearings. Key points include its unique fingertip control, requiring a significant retraining of hand movements, especially since the trackball navigation involves the middle and pointer fingers while other fingers handle button presses, which can feel unnatural. The left click’s placement is inconvenient, and the buttons have too much travel, making precise actions difficult.
Despite these issues, the tracking performance of the trackball is praised for its accuracy and responsiveness, making it a good option for users with limited mobility. The presenter mentions it can be effective in games with less strict aiming requirements and highlights that recoil control is manageable once accustomed to the device. However, for fast-paced actions and precise aiming, it falls short compared to a traditional mouse.
Lastly, the scrolling feature through capacitive areas around the trackball is noted as intuitive. The segment concludes with a tease of another mouse featuring a built-in fan.

In this segment of the video, the presenter discusses three different computer mouse models.
First, they talk about the Zephyr Pro, a second-generation fan mouse that is sweat-proof, with improvements in fan vibrations and noise. Weighing 69 grams and featuring RGB elements, it effectively cools the user’s palm with a light stream of air, making it ideal for people with sweaty hands. It has a shape similar to popular models like the Model O Wireless and features 50 million Omron primary switches and a 3389 sensor at 1,000 Hz. The presenter expresses surprise at liking the cooling feature.
Next, they review the Cougar Air Blader, a tiny, 62-gram mouse with no perforations but a partly solid shell. It has a slightly front-heavy balance, 50 million click switches, a 2,000 Hz polling rate sensor, PTFE skates, and a thick cable. Despite its lack of RGB lighting, its G305-like shape offers excellent control.
Finally, the presenter introduces a wireless handheld trackball mouse designed for presentations, priced at $18. It includes a laser button, is suitable for both left and right-handed users, and has a trigger for the left click. While the trackball is smooth, it results in less control, especially when clicking, as it tends to move slightly.

In this part of the video, the reviewer discusses multiple mice, beginning with the importance of being able to change the DPI and mentions a specific mouse that includes batteries and a USB receiver. They then review the ROG Spatha X wireless mouse, noting its large size, weight, MMO RPG-focused layout, and the efficacy of its six thumb buttons. The precise DPI adjustment via the scroll wheel and the robust battery life through the fast-charging dock are highlighted. Additionally, they touch on the Microsoft Arc mouse, a Bluetooth device praised for its battery life and connectivity, though its ergonomic design drew criticism. Lastly, the Logitech MX Air Go is lauded for its trackball control, making it ideal for users with limited wrist mobility.

In this part of the video, the reviewer discusses various features and personal experiences with different trackball and ergonomic mice. They highlight the stability and precision of a trackball mouse, mentioning that the metal base adds weight and the rubberized bottom keeps it in position. The precision button is praised for accurate cursor control, and the quiet rolling for smooth scrolling. However, prolonged use of the trackball mouse can cause thumb discomfort, despite reducing wrist, elbow, and shoulder movements. They compare it to a cheaper Logitech alternative, noting differences like the absence of a precision button and a 20-degree tilt option. The reviewer also examines a vertical ergonomic mouse, praising its comfortable handshake grip but noting the inconvenience of having no batteries included. Despite some sensor issues reported in long-term reviews, they appreciate its unique shape and comfort for office use. The segment concludes with an invitation for viewers to share their favorite mouse and to check out more content.
