  • Are Zowie Wireless Mice Any Good? Zowie EC1-CW Review. This is my review of the Zowie Wireless EC Mice. Specifically the EC1 variant. I've been testing the BenQ Zowie EC1-CW for over a month now so here's my thoughts on it ▼Aim routines▼

    Are the new wireless zowie mice any good? Well I've had the opportunity to test one for the last month and half and I think the mouse itself is actually quite good. The new Zowie Wireless ec1cw mice use the pixart 3370 sensor, Huano black shell , blue dot switches, and uses a special zowie enhanced wireless receiver which provides a stronger signal to the mouse but it also comes with the standard USB and dongle solution that every other wireless gaming mouse on the market also uses. So you can also have the Zowie Wireless EC1-CW connected to multiple PCs at once and easily switch between them by using the switch on the bottom of the mouse. The shape is the same as the Classic EC1 mouse expect the actual buttons are slightly narrower. (Same shape, there is simply a ledge now instead of a button shell in that spot)
    The performance of the EC-CW Zowie Wireless mice are great but weather or not it's worth the high price tag is another topic. The Zowie Wireless EC mice also come in the EC2-CW and EC3-CW size variants but the one I had to test was the zowie ec1cw as I have large hands.

    I think the weight is perfect. Some people don't want mice that are to light. Also anyone complaining about the price is the US is a joke. Knowing you paid the same price for the Superlight and Razer viper pro..

      @timlolxP Год назад +1

      I got my Superlight for 80€ on sale. Now you can get it for 90€, the viper ultimate v2 (which has better specs) is 120€. So I don't see any reason to get this, apart from you need this shape. Razer, logitech, pulsar have better or the same product for a better price.

      Actually, you are Gigachad for noting that there are individuals who despise anything between 45 and 68g in mouse weight, much alone anything less than 45g. There are and I am on of those people. Also, it appears that the so-called mice community is basically a bunch of cry babies who all appear to be unemployed (not even part-time throughout university) while wearing Air Maxes and various fashion brands and purchasing the latest editions of Finalmouse. However, they all came to bitch about Zowie's pricing for their wireless mice, as though they are unfamiliar with BenQ (Zowie) prices in general. They also bitch about sensor as to why Zowie's wireles line has only 3370 and not 3395 sensor ... like jeee, as if 3370 is not enough to win a major or ten LMAO ... or someone can actually surpass 3370's tracking speed of 10.16 m/s, let alone 26k dpi in 3395. Just BRAINDEADism in the nutshell.

    • @DatGoodSir
      @DatGoodSir  Год назад +2

      That red stripe is actually the antenna for the enhanced wireless receiver. You can use the mouse without needing the USB receiver at all, so you could even have it plugged into a different PC and easily switch between the two also, which is something I forgot to mention. The battery indicator is below the scroll wheel. There are white dots that show up when you plug it in or use the dock.

      @@DatGoodSir Hi - I OWN the EC3-CW now, along with the Thorn, XM2we, Prime Mini Wireless, Kone Pro Air, Origin One X, Xlite v2 and a loooooooong list of others which started with the MX500 and MS1.1 and Explorer 3.0 at CS 1.0 in 2000.
      Oh... My.... 100% stand by my statement and going into 2024 - this mouse is worth £59.99 TOPS.
      I can't even EXPRESS the insult that the price they are charging is to me, it literally OFFENDS me as a Lamzu Thorn main user. It's an EMBARRASSMENT.
      WHAT DOES THISE MOUSE OFFER for the price?
      1) A great shape if you like it (I do, but, I also love the Thorn and many others lol)
      2) I personally like the sensor placement.
      3) You don't need software / but YOU CAN NOT HAVE ANY if you want it and I do.
      4) Good build quality
      5) Good coating
      And now vs the Thorn (LOL)
      1) It's SIGNIFICANTLY heavier
      2) It's near DOUBLE THE PRICE
      3) It has an older and plain worse sensor (3370 is fine for me but you can't charge that for it END OF)
      4) Thorn has better tech all around inc 4K (if you like that - I don't)
      5) Thorn scroll and scroll click are significanlty nicer IMO
      6) Thorn side buttons are WAY nicer and easier to use.
      7) The unboxing experience and care by a mile
      8) The build is simply not better than the Thorn
      9) The coating is no better than the Thorn
      10) The 'enhanced reciever does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING bar allow you to use your mouse further away until I see that TESTED and QUANTIFIED (it will never be, and you know why)
      11) The Thorn software is literally perfect - plus it actually has software
      12) The skates on the Thorn are actually good skates how can Zowie not even put on top quality skates LMFAO SERIOUSLY??????
      12) I don't even know how to be more insulted by the price they are charging when I paid £88 DELIVERED for my Thorn.
      13) Oh.... My.... NO NO NO The ECX-CW is worth £59.99 in 2024 and not a PENNY MORE.
      You may consider this an angry rant at Zowie AND any one who does not call them out for this GARBAGE - I am absolutely stunned at how anti-consumer and disgustingly over priced Zowie products are (don't get me started on the GSR2) any youtuber who does not trash this product (at it's current price) is not to be trusted.
      EDIT the scroll click on the Zowie is SO BAD that I have had to actually rebind it and just stop trying to use it, honestly anybody not calling Zowie out for such a trash product is absolutely an enemy of consumers.
