Who wins in terms of sensor's stability ? The taipan has a variant of the adns9800 so is it better ?

When I say reviews, I mean reviews.
I don't mean marketing with a stamp of one online website that got the product for free and so they need to give a good review or they will not get any more reviewing samples from the company

Not sure about the sensei, but the taipan have a small amount of acceleration (less than 5% from what I've read). If you like the shell/features go for it. I'd take it over a sensei just for the shape.

The Taipan's sensor (S9818 - 9800 variant) does have flaws. Around 0 - 1.0m/s you'll experience negative acceleration and anywhere past that you'll get positive acceleration. You can check out my review for a real world example of the amount of acceleration. In the past Razer has pushed firmware updates so hopefully we see one for the Taipan to fix the accel issues. I don't know anything about the Sensei MLG but hopefully I can get my hands on one eventually.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for clarification. It's exactly the same behavior as the 9500 and 9800.

Does either have the dust in sensor issue like the a9500 sensor?
