Review on ROCCAT Lightweight Ergonomic Performance Aluminum by Kevin Bigelow

TLDR: Try this mouse if you're looking for an alternative to the GPX shape. Advantages: Very unique shape that fits your hand like a glove - Easy wireless working (self-explanatory) - Very smooth mouse wheel control with defined steps and light pressure - Very good standard feet (PSA: REMOVE THE BLUE TAPE) - USB Type-C -Connector on the front -Long battery life (especially with RGB turned off) -Fantastic coating that offers maximum grip and leaves no traces (speaking of the white version) -Software that offers very good mouse control and useful information, including battery status in the system tablet . - Bluetooth functionality - Very nice and flexible charging cable - Pixart 3370Cons based sensor: - No USB-C to A cable adapter included (however, to circumvent this I use the one that came with the Glorious Model wireless mouse - Oh, and it works great) - The RT charger is recessed too deep, making it a bit difficult to unplug the cable (although it's one of the best-fitting detachable cables if you need to use it with a cable). Keys 1 and 2 creak a little, but not quite. as soft as most optical devices. Roccat never interested me in terms of peripherals, but this one intrigued me. The shape looked a bit odd but attractive, as I've seen before on a mouse I've liked in the past. I would describe the shape as a hybrid between an upgraded Rival 300 for ring, pinky and mouse 1 and 2 (but shorter), some G502 around the thumb, and an EC-2-like rear end with a hump further forward. It all adds up to one of the best mouse shapes I've ever worked on. The shape allows you to hold it the same way every time without forcing your fingers into awkward or uncomfortable positions. It just seems right. The mouse wheel feels very good and is easy to click. The side buttons are nice and big and easy to press. The main mouse buttons are okay, but they do seem to creak a bit, which is a bit off-putting. Right now, the best optical switches (or really good ones for any switch) are the Steelseries Prime. These keys are very nimble and the internal design feels like they should pretty much always maintain their consistency. I really hope that other brands will copy and implement them. The standard legs are also very good. They are qualitatively very close to Hyperplane, Tigereis or at least Corepazu. You really don't need to buy non-originals right away. I've included this PPE in the pros and cons section because I've seen a lot of people praise or criticize the glide with the blue foil protector. So when you buy it, don't forget to take it off. My only complaints about the mouse at the moment are the lack of an included wireless adapter to connect to the charging cable (it's a very neat little gem that comes with most accessories). other wireless mice). And the charging port on the mouse is recessed too deep. When the cable is connected, it feels very solid, like a wired mouse, but it's a bit fiddly to detach. I'm afraid I will press buttons 1 and 2 too hard and eventually damage them or something. Other than those two questions, I have no other complaints. If anything changes, I'll update the review with the important things noted above. Conclusion: This is a really good mouse. I would recommend trying it out if you find the GPW shape too egg-shaped.
