It's not the first modular gaming mouse - the Mad Catz R.A.T beat it to the punch by quite a few years! That mouse did have its fair share of issues though! Edit: he changed the title so my comment is pointless now! Yippeeeee!
the moment i saw the announcement this morning, i KNEW there will be a video of yours about it, it seems like such a you kinda thing to check out haha, great vid
This is such a sick idea! I love this concept. I already have a mouse that fits my hand size and grip style pretty much perfectly (G Pro Wireless; I wish the Superlight shape was the same as the OG GPW, but I tried both out in person and they're slightly different. The GPW fit my hand better.), but for those who haven't found their perfect fit yet, this is an awesome option without spending a ton of money on several different mice. Also, for the people saying that the Mad Catz R.A.T. was the first modular mouse, that's technically true, but it still had a very specific/unique base shape to the frame that couldn't really be changed much. This new product gives you almost complete free reign over the shape of the ENTIRE mouse (minus the front where the triggers are), and that's epic!!
@@MrJohannson it was awesome at the time. could change the shape and the weight lol back when people thought a heavier mouse could be better. i actually still own the mouse too haha
my reaction exactly, 😃 Proud owner of two MadCatz and even if they are by far not the most suitable pro gaming mice, one thing no one can take away from them was their robustness & modularity.
This is super intriguing. I've often wondered if a company would ever have a customisable click feature for the LMB/RMB, which changes the weight and tangibility of the click to suit certain grips and gaming titles.
It's funny, i just bought a Deathadder V3 to replace my broken G703. The shapes look near identical on Amazon and while simply looking at the mouse, but they feel wildly different in the hand and i find myself wishing i could just put the Deathadder internals into the G703. A modular design would get me closer to that
4:40 I definitely had that type of thinking like 4 years ago but then a friend of mine said "stop looking for the best thing someone else is using and instead pick up the one that makes you the most comfortable" and it made me stop and think and realize that it isn't how well does the mouse perform on a large scale but how well it feels for me it's a basic thing but sometimes it feels like the most forgotten thing to remember. Great video and super excited for this product and it's success even if I don't purchase it
Correct, the gamer is not the most elegant thing. The battery life is better but the QC is not there. My Shroud g303 is double clicking and that's 3 years *after* quitting the esports pro scene.
Crazy that I was talking about the Logitech G9 this morning with a friend, and then this video comes out. The G9 had three different modular attachment that allowed a somewhat different mouse shape, but not to this extent.
I realy like the idea. I would not be surprised if they later also introduce a bit larger base model for the ones that think that the current one is not big enough
@OrbitalWorks_co I am looking forward to that mouse. The idea is awesome and that you guys give the option to print own parts is something that can't be praised enough. I will order one when the pre order starts
i firmly believe shape is the most important thing when it comes to mice with sensor polling and placement coming right in second and third you can have all the polling rate and weight savings in the world but if it isnt nice to hold then its meaningless.
this should be the future of gaming mice, modular and can be configured depending in ur mousegrip, it should cover the 3 most common grips: claw, palm and the rarest and most ignored is the fingertip grip.
Actually a very nice refreshing mouse. The market right now has sooo many mices, its hard to even pick. You almost feel the need to try absolutely all of them.
Looks great, but when I saw the title I was hoping "modules" also meant parts with buttons like picking a thumb part with 9-12 buttons vs just back+forward buttons vs clean panel on the side. Still a good idea
This is a very exciting product and I'm hyped to see what it will look like in a few years! It already seems well made and the rail system sounds future proof for new parts. I'm not personally going to buy it as I have no money but maybe in a year or two I might give it a look.
Before i heard that they're gonna be releasing the files for the rails, i was gonna comment that a BIG value add for this would be for people with 3D printers who want to print their own attachments and grips, (if they'd release the model files... which they are, yippeee), excited to see where this mouse goes in the future.
One huge pro I can see here is that you can pretty much indefinitely test all sorts of mouse shapes and configurations to find the best ones that work for you and then keep whatever works best for you, but also change things up when getting into new games with new demands. The only other way to even just sufficiently test a mouse is to buy it, and then if you want to keep swapping things around and compare you would have to buy several different mice.
This mouse reminds me of the now discontinued Razer Ouroboros which had 2 different grip options on either side as well as the ability to adjust the length of the mouse using a similar rail system as well as adjust the angle of the back of the mouse with a little wheel under the mouse. It also had the option to adjust the resistance of the scroll wheel. The sides also worked as buttons which you could press in. I think in total there were 10 mouse buttons plus the scroll wheel.
That thing ruined me. No other mouse is even remotely as comfortable for me but their newer stuff is total garbanzo. I eventually glued the thumb rest onto my G305 and it's not too bad.
this isnt rly relavent to the video but ive just discoverd your channel like 3 weeks ago, love the content and espacialy the small formfactor pcs keep up the good work man (i might also be getting a t1)
sounds very profitable but morally speaking it sounds like it would go against all of the hard work they're trying to do which is give players more options on a mouse in terms of shape and size. Guarantee people would just zip past all of the creativity and innovation in this product and buy "shroud's preset". no hate on shroud, it's just an example.
thats way more than what this mouse is doing. that would require a way to plug in button directly to the mouse cpu as currently all of them are hardwired.
I'm a lefty, and I have fully transferred my skills to my right hand. Being dual wielder solves all issues, and most importantly, I dont have unrealistic expectations that someone would care that I was disabled.
Left handed gamers are the most oppressed minority out there. I don't see why it so hard to make buttons on each side or let you order a custom left handed from a mouse site. If there isn't enough of a market to mass produce them, I couldn't imagine mirroring the shell and a small bit of software and hardware tinkering would be that expensive not to make them to order.
This is an amazing idea. I’m 6’8 and have pretty large hands, and the superlight just feels small and uncomfortable in my hands. I bought a full grip around the whole mouse which helps but it still feels unnatural the way that I have to hold it to maintain control. I’ll definitely be interested in this product when it comes out!
Madcatz did it years ago... but what is the base height of the mouse? I mean, it's not only the length you might need, but also the height and where the hump is. Also, the side panel mechanics look insanely fragile. But hey, it's a test build.
As a pincer-claw grip user, that combination at 3:12 looks like it'd be perfect. Having owned both the Saitek-Madcat RAT 7 (great customization but way too heavy) & Logi G9x, it seems like this (modern modular mouse) was a long time coming.
i feel like this couldve been the perfect opportunity to make this lefty friendly aswell, since each part is modular you can get the same part but for the opposite side
I was wondering if you were planning on making a video showcasing all the new rapid trigger keyboards and latency testing them all. Off the top of my head there’s the Wooting, Keychron, DrunkDeer, Logitech, Razer, Corsair, Steelseries and probably a few more you would remember that I can’t. Please do make a video on this as it would be something I, and a substantial amount of viewers would be interested in. Thank you!
@@LS-is5ob pretty sure he wears almost exclusively uniqlo clothing from what ive noticed lol, i think the uniqlo u line specifically which would make sense, high quality minimalist stuff, would be willing to bet thats a uniqlo u crewneck
That's the neat part, you can't know what shape works for you until you try it. If you're willing to do gaming for the rest of your life, I'd say 200 bucks is an acceptable price to have a decent mouse you can experiment your shape prefrences on. Eventually when it breaks or becomes outdated you'll know what mouse to replace it with depending on the shape you liked most, you'll have the information needed to buy the perfect shape mice for your hand for the rest of your life. @@enfantterrible4868
Waiting for this mouse to become available worldwide, this kind of modular mouses would really help to lessen over-buying in mouses just to find the right fit
@OrbitalWorks_coyeah, grips can vary a lot throughout game its something that i think a lot of people come to realize after experimenting with different shapes and grips with mice i tend to change from fingertip grip to claw gripping a lot
I thought the same thing initially but I'm not so sure now. Firstly, I can definitely see myself using different mice for different things (ie a bigger mouse for non-gaming stuff). Just switching grips could do that as well. Secondly, how're you gonna know what your right setup is otherwise? Buy several mice to test them? That's far more waste and money spent.
I also don't see the point of it honestly. Most modular products like this don't get changed once the user finds their favorite setting and all the other parts collect dust in a drawer somewhere.
First, how're you gonna find the shape you like? By buying several actual mice? Much more money spent and waste created. Secondly, at least I don't have the same shape preference for ALL applications of my mouse. Different games or office stuff do definitely benefit from different shaped mouses I think.
That's not the point at all, lol. This mouse kit allows you to change around the shape of the mouse to find the one that fits you the most, instead of having to buy like 10 different mice to get the shape that you want. It's about finding the shape that you like the most, not about changing the shape up a lot. I know that most people (at least here in the US; I can't speak for foreign countries) can just go to Best Buy or Micro Center and try out different mice, but even then those stores don't have every mouse on the market available to try out in person. This kit lets you spend money once and try out dozens of different shape and size combos to find the one that works best for you.
@daandelombaert7198 Yep. Buying is usually the only option for many places, even in the US, where most mice I am interested in aren't available for demo even in multiple micro centers nearby me. You'll never find brands like WLmouse in Micro Center, and especially not mice that are limited in quantity.
This made me realize that I would love a mouse with modular buttons and such for repairability. We have keyboards with hot-swappable switches and we have the Framework Laptop for a modular laptop... Now we need someone to make a mouse like that.
0:18 So this guy has never heard of the Logitech G9 / G9X. You had 2 different backs that you can change and convert it between a slimmer controllable mouse suitable for 3D shooters, or a larger one with a thumb rest.
The thing about modular gaming mouse is after you have found your optimal configuration, the extra parts becomes useless. Which means you might as well find a mouse that fits you in the first place. No one needs their mouse to keep changing or have preferences that keeps changing.
I would love a vertical mouse that works like this, maybe even adjustable "verticality" angle or one that's able to transform into a regular one. I use my Delux M618 daily since 2014 or so, although I had to do some maintenance type repairs and change the mouse completely once, it is still the most comfortable mouse I've ever used.
If your hands are tiny and never play FPS games the G502 is still a great mouse yes, but otherwise there are many better mice for half its price. You don't have to get this expensive experimental mouse.
@@houssamalucad753 if 50$ is expensive then u must be playing on the cheap 5$ chines mouse that break after evry 2 weeks 50$ is perfect price for a mouse not less not more most mouses with that price have bad motherboards g502 mother board is very good, no lag while playing shooter games
bro your channel name is actually perfect, you cover tech based on an "is this optimal for you" lens and i love it. i main LTT for general tech stuff but your channel is completely different, in a sense that you cover the best of the best for different categories such as monitors, mice even pcs and scrutinise it thoroughly. keep up the work my gee.
Great video! I wish there was a little more information on Polling Rate, the software that would be used, click latency, etc. but enjoyed watching none the less
Concerns are durability from continously changing the parts where the locking teeth would be smoothened. Cost is probably on the higher end for the final product. I hope the sensor would also be changeable for future sensors
It seems like you could also 3D print your replacement parts or make your own! Could be resin or a lighter plastic. This is really good for the gaming industry
If they continue adding and refining to the concept of this mouse it will make an impact to the industry, so many people have different references and hand sizes
This is actually pretty damn cool. We already have custom keyboards but can't really customize mice. Hopefully this will be successful and pave the way for other companies
It's not the first modular gaming mouse - the Mad Catz R.A.T beat it to the punch by quite a few years! That mouse did have its fair share of issues though! Edit: he changed the title so my comment is pointless now! Yippeeeee!
quality last
true, there are also the xtrfy mice with the modular humps but ofc not as drastic as this since it only has 2 plates
Also there is a cheap option; the gamefactor MOW700 (here in Mexico is like 50 usd)
thanks for correcting me!

The 3d printed ratcheting mechanism does not look like it would last the test of time under the use of your average gremlin.
I was thinking this too, but honestly once you have found the spot you like how often are you realistically going to change the position of it?
Correct, the gamer is not the most elegant thing. The battery life is better but the QC is not there. My Shroud g303 is double clicking and that's 3 years *after* quitting the esports pro scene.
Well it's surely not meant for durability test, just for checking the shape and how it feels. If it breaks just send him another one.

This made me realize that I would love a mouse with modular buttons and such for repairability. We have keyboards with hot-swappable switches and we have the Framework Laptop for a modular laptop... Now we need someone to make a mouse like that.
Youll love this asus patentet that shit and has swapable switches.
There are a couple of brands (endgame gear has one of those)
Reasonably priced non AI generated wallpapers without a monthly subscription? If only other RUclipsrs could've thought of such a plan.
As a fanatic for ergonomic grips in general, I would love to try it!
0:18 So this guy has never heard of the Logitech G9 / G9X. You had 2 different backs that you can change and convert it between a slimmer controllable mouse suitable for 3D shooters, or a larger one with a thumb rest.
I didn't expect you to review this
why it kinda look like an actual mouse
Because it is a mouse
The thing about modular gaming mouse is after you have found your optimal configuration, the extra parts becomes useless. Which means you might as well find a mouse that fits you in the first place. No one needs their mouse to keep changing or have preferences that keeps changing.
MadCatz has entered the chat. 🤣
I would love a vertical mouse that works like this, maybe even adjustable "verticality" angle or one that's able to transform into a regular one. I use my Delux M618 daily since 2014 or so, although I had to do some maintenance type repairs and change the mouse completely once, it is still the most comfortable mouse I've ever used.
isnt mad catz the first to do this?
as always. absolute cinema. thankyou
Im staying with my g502 i dont have 300$ for a mouse
If your hands are tiny and never play FPS games the G502 is still a great mouse yes, but otherwise there are many better mice for half its price. You don't have to get this expensive experimental mouse.
@@houssamalucad753 if 50$ is expensive then u must be playing on the cheap 5$ chines mouse that break after evry 2 weeks 50$ is perfect price for a mouse not less not more most mouses with that price have bad motherboards g502 mother board is very good, no lag while playing shooter games
@@houssamalucad753 the g502 is not a small mouse...
@@RM-xq7gf it's narrow, people with large hands get cramps using it for a long time.
I would like to see them make one with really low hump so you can add pieces and mimic a ton more mice.

welcome to tech 10 years ago
Okay, but those were trash.
i just looked it up and omg the mad catz rat series still exists. i remember those mice from like 2008
If you see this...Have a legendary day!!!
Dude stop with this toxic positivity BS.
I hope your day is legendary too bro🤝🏻
I like the idea. But I think a lot more could be done. And I hope that the bigger companies are taking notice?
FIRST CMONNNNNNNN OPTIMUMMM
No, no you’re not.
Nobody asked 🤡
You're third. Don't get too excited.
Edit: the first person deleted their comment, so you're second now.
@jack-alvin I did 🤡
bro your channel name is actually perfect, you cover tech based on an "is this optimal for you" lens and i love it. i main LTT for general tech stuff but your channel is completely different, in a sense that you cover the best of the best for different categories such as monitors, mice even pcs and scrutinise it thoroughly. keep up the work my gee.
17 seconds and only 1 veiw??? bro fell off.
Great video! I wish there was a little more information on Polling Rate, the software that would be used, click latency, etc. but enjoyed watching none the less
There is also a mouse called Kreo Griphin, went out of stock and company has discontinued it but it was also modular
Concerns are durability from continously changing the parts where the locking teeth would be smoothened. Cost is probably on the higher end for the final product. I hope the sensor would also be changeable for future sensors
I’d love to buy a kit and then send them unused parts back. Once I get it to fit my hand perfectly I doubt I’ll ever change it.
Would love to see a budget version of this
It seems like you could also 3D print your replacement parts or make your own! Could be resin or a lighter plastic. This is really good for the gaming industry
USD 189 for a mouse with as much configurability as this? That's actually crazy value, imo
No lol
@@marvin2678 its like 5 different mice in one bruh
If they continue adding and refining to the concept of this mouse it will make an impact to the industry, so many people have different references and hand sizes
This is actually pretty damn cool. We already have custom keyboards but can't really customize mice. Hopefully this will be successful and pave the way for other companies
