About this deal

But I do notice that my gaming kids all seem to use pads on their wooden tables, so I guess in a professionally competitive environment you need to trade comfort for precision and speed. This new 3.0 version is 50% thinner, 50% smoother, and 50% quieter than its predecessor according to SkyPAD. That’s a whole lot of improvements, but as I said I can’t comment on how this translates to the real world as I have never used the 2.0. I’m just including this information to be complete. Performance

This pad is great for fingertip grippers. The fingertip grip has always prioritized finesse and little movements. This means that the less friction you encounter, the easier the mouse moves and the more precision you can obtain. For how I've been playing FPS games for decades, this pad is a godsend. The force you apply with your fingers is purely directed toward moving the weight of the mouse and NOT overcoming the friction of the pad. The muscle memory you can ingrain into fine movements over time is awesome. SkyPAD 」と名付けられたこのオリジナルマウスパッドは、多くのゲーマーから高い評価を受けました。2018年には、より良い製品を生み出すため、PC周辺機器メーカー大手の「Logitech」に勤務。その経験を活かして開発した「 SkyPAD 2.0 XL 」は、今もなお人気が高い製品です。 Something else that can get annoying is the sound. When you swipe and put down your mouse on a cloth pad you might hear a muted thud that doesn’t really bother anyone, but the SkyPAD is definitely a loud one. It’s not as loud as someone who’s going to town on a glass cutting board or anything like that, but if someone was using this near me while I was trying to work or relax it would definitely bother me. That’s doesn’t necessarily have something to do with the performance of the product, but it’s something to keep in mind if you’ve got housemates to consider. So the verdict? I'm loving it so far. The texture is smoother and quieter. The sound it makes is just a lot more pleasing to the ear than version 2.0, but it is still noisier than other hard pads although it doesn't bother me at all. The 2.0 was not. It's thin enough that it doesn't bother my forearm on the edge. Using a sleeve is necessary to me if any important aiming is involved. Lastly the speed. Is it 50% faster than the 2.0? It definitely feels like it compared to the 'slow' 2.0 that I had. I'm using a set of new corepads. I would say it feels just as fast as using G Float ceramic feet with a new polycarbonate pad. Very little static friction. It's so smooth too.Enter the SkyPAD 3.0. As far as I'm concerned, the SkyPAD is the KING OF THE HARD PADS. I've had mine since the end of May, so a little over 90 days. I'm using it with a Corsair Sabre RGB Pro with aftermarket PTFE feet from Corepad. Here are my keytakeaways: Speaking of friction, there is so little of it that games like Counter Strike and Valorant are pretty difficult to play on this pad due to the need for accurate recoil control. I would definitely consider something with more friction if you're primarily into those sorts of games.

SkyPAD 3.0 XLは非常にスムースに滑って、咄嗟の動きにもかなり合わせやすいなと感じました。持続的なトラッキングAIMもかなりやりやすく思いましたね。ハードパッドの特性を掴んだ後は良い感触でした。 Lots of stuff to consider, in other words, but that’s just how it is with glass pads. It comes with advantages (such as the fact that it will never wear down; something that isn’t true for cloth pads) but also disadvantages, and there’s no way around that. SkyPAD 3.0 Review – Conclusion

This change of mind return policy is in addition to, and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law including any rights you may have in respect of faulty items. To return faulty items see our Returning Faulty Items policy. Skypad’s regular Mousepad 3.0 is a much more manageable size. It’s quite a bit smaller than the Atlas, and is what most people would probably consider a “standard” or medium-sized mouse pad. Because it’s glass, it doesn’t feel quite as small as a similarly-sized cloth mouse pad, since smaller swipes go further. It’s also not quite as smooth as the Atlas, so I did find myself moving my mouse over a larger area than I did with the Atlas (but still smaller than with a non-glass mouse pad). What I’m trying to say is that if you’re used to larger mouse pads, you’ll probably still have an adjustment period if you move down — the Mousepad 3.0’s glass surface doesn’t completely negate the size. The Mousepad 3.0 is made of tempered glass, but is “incredibly durable,” according to the company (which also told me to go ahead and drop it on the floor from varying heights). I happen to live in a factory-converted-loft with polished concrete floors, however, so I decided against haphazardly tossing it onto my floor... just in case it happened to break. I did consider taking it outside and dropping it on the street, but that didn’t seem very environmentally-friendly (even if I do live in downtown Los Angeles where the streets are full of broken glass anyway). Of course one might say that a product at this price hasto come in a nice box, and I would agree. The SkyPAD is the most expensive mousepad I’ve ever tested, and with an MSRP of a whopping 120 dollars there’s not a lot of room for error with this product.

Because the surface is so fast the SkyPad is not necessarily recommended for tactical shooters like CS:GO or Valorant but if you lower your sensitivity to the 43-62 cm range, even those games can be played competitively. Bought this as I was tired of buying cloth pads only to replace them every few years due to degredarion. Having cats means that I frequently need to wipe fur and other foreign substances away from it, which over time causes damage to these pads. With this one being glass, fur wipes away very easily, and skin oil and other substances can be washed away with regular window cleaner. No need to worry about the pad degrading after cleaning. APEX ingame 3.0@400dpi)なのでちょっと持て余してしまいましたが、CS:GOやVALORANTのようなゲームをプレイする ローセンシユーザーにはピッタリなんじゃないかなと思います。この大きさでも表面にムラが無いのは良かったです。 The SkyPAD 3.0 is built for speed, and our testing and my personal experiences can attest to the fact that the brand has succeeded on this front. This is without a doubt the fastest pad I’ve ever laid my hands on. If you keep your fingers off of the surface itself, it almost feels as if your mouse is gliding in thin air. There’s really nothing stopping your mouse except for your own hands, and that’s a feeling that takes some getting used to. The SkyPAD 3.0 is the fastest pad I’ve ever tested, and if you are looking for a frictionless gliding experience this could really be it. It does come with a number of caveats, however. The pad’s hard and extremely smooth surface is completely unforgiving towards inconsistencies, be it with your mouse skates or your surface (think hairs, dander, …) so you will want to keep a cloth handy. Make sure it’s not a wet cloth, though, since the surface obviously won’t handle humidity very well due to the fact that it can’t absorb any of it. And last, but not least, it’s also a very loud mousepad. It’s not that bad when just gliding around with your mouse, but if you’re often resetting your mouse after swiping there’s definitely a lot of noise going on.Ah and yes, with ceramic tiles on the floor, I'd hate indistructible pads and tiles have go at each other: either winner would have me loose something... This change of mind return policy is in addition to, and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law including any rights you may have in respect of faulty items. I've seen some reviewers comment that they need an arm sleeve to use this pad adequately. This doesn't jive with my experience, but I play in a cool room with a fan blowing directly on me. You MIGHT need a sleeve if you play in a hot environment as moisture on the pad from sweat will cause minor interference to glide. But if you aren't sweating, you should be fine. The skin from your hand or wrist touching the pad should not in itself cause any sort of issue.
