HyperX seem to be releasing a $50 ergo Deathadder / Zowie EC shaped mouse.

- 3310 sensor
- 400/800/1600/3200
- Driverless

No dimensions / weight info yet



Decent look at the shape here: https://youtu.be/8WZLzCNbq5o?t=85

A year ago this mouse would've made sense. Now? Nope.
Yeah. 3360 would have been job done.

I'd still be semi interested if it's lighter than EC / Deathadder and has good overall quality.

Not sure if anyone has it solz, idk if hyper x sent it out to anyone here either

Looks like an EC shape with flat right side and 95g weight. Idk about decision for rubber side grips. You can be the one to give your opinion!

It's a 3310 so nothing new to expect

Just ordered one from Amazon, i'll have it tomorrow. Ill share some general thoughts on the mouse after I use it for a bit. To me it seems like a hard design to screw up and I play just as good with a 3310 than with a 3360 so I don't mind. HyperX is one of the better peripheral makers out there IMO, I've used pretty much everything they've made and they were all great.

True, but some companies have a horrible implementation of the 3310 like Fnatic,Ducky,Xtrfy,etc.

Just to update everyone:

-Buttons are a bit stiffer than the G403, DA Elite and Kone EMP but they're a lot better to spam click than Zowie mice. Very tactile as well. Side and MMB feel good too.

-The shape fills up my large hand pretty well in a palm grip but I usually use a palm/fingertip hybrid when I game where the middle part of my hand is off the mouse. If I do a full palm grip my fingers go over the mouse but that's with pretty much everything i've tried. It feels like a safer DA shape to me...the only negative for me is that the right side of the mouse is at an angle that slopes to the right instead of being flat. That makes it a bit harder to lift IMO but its manageable.

-It is listed as 95g on their site(I don't have a scale to measure it) and it feels about that weight. Pretty good weight for a larger-sized mouse.

-Scroll wheel is pretty light and the steps aren't very tactile but overall its an above average wheel. I can still make out every step.

-It has that braided style cable that the Alloy FPS Keyboard has, Its kind of stiff but I don't ever notice it interfering with my aim in my Camade.

-The skates are pretty big....they take up half of the bottom of the mouse. Glides super well on my black G-SR. They're pretty comparable to the EC series feet but they aren't as thick.

-As I said earlier the 3310 feels good to me and I can play just as well with it as I can with the 3360.

All in all so far so good. Best way to describe this mouse is it's solid...nothing is really bad with it. I think if HyperX put in a 3360 in their next Mouse with a flatter side on the right and a rubber cable this would be AMAZING. I can recommend this to people looking for a safer DA-style shape with a well-known sensor.
