np-01 is the best mouse I had ever used yet. I tried mice like superlight , finalmouses , zowies , steelseries. but the np-01 is the best of them all for me :)
I love the mouse from VAXEE. but the price is too high when shipping to my country, Vietnam. That's why I choose mice from other major brands instead of VAXEE or other users' purchases
@@VAXEE Are you planning to sell your products on Amazon? I live in the EU and really want to try out your NP-01S and Outset AX but I am nervous about shipping costs.

possibly the greatest review ive watched on ANY mouse. The attention to detail is unmatched bro, keep it up! Would you ever get into audio, keyboards, or just other gaming peripherals in general?
Maybe. Mice and pads are just what I'm most interested in by far right now so they're all that I want to make content about. In the future I might get into other peripherals but I'm not eager to branch out soon.
I only read the title as I won't be able to watch it now, and I'll say I agree! Been maining this mouse for the past 6 months, switched to it from a superlight, so I hope that says everything right there!
still got (and still main) my original NP-01 purchased 1/9/21, had the GPW, AX, NP-01S, G303 Wireless, S2-C, G304, RVU, XM1R, Capetown, almost all are sold.. Damn looking back I spent a lot of money on mouse, and still use the NP-01
I wanted to love this shape so much! Being so flat across it's wide hump really sours it to me. When my wrist is totally flat, the left side of my palm has way more friction against the mousepad and hurts my comfort and performance. A very similar mouse with a slight tilt, the Asus TUF M3, helped me confirm how I would prefer a slightly tilted Vaxee shape to either the current NP-01 or Outset.
very relatable review. the hump would dig into my palm, which I disliked, but the comfort was quite good for the fingers. vaxee's color series looks so good, I'm really tempted to get an np01s in matte white
Get it soon because I asked on the site and they said this batch in stock rn is the last planned stock for white and pink. They may bring it back later but there is no guarantee
Just a few notes since I own both this mouse and the S2C: The front of the mouse is not identical in size to the S2C. NP-01 is slightly wider (61.4mm vs 60.4mm). This, in combination with the rear flare out on the right side for pinky support, makes this mouse feel massive in hand compared to the S2C. To give you an idea, I consider the S2C to be a medium sized mouse, and I consider the NP-01 to be a large-medium. Not necessarily a bad thing if it fits your hand, but an important distinction to make for those looking for a medium or medium-small sized mouse.
Good point. Everyone perceives mouse size differently so it's important to get multiple opinions. For me, the dimensions of the front of the mouse is always the most important factor for determining relative size so I've always felt that the GPX was actually a little larger than the np-01 despite having a significantly smaller back for example.
@@KraftyCraftKraf Ah yeah. For me, width is just one of the factors. How much the mouse fills the hand also plays a pretty big role from my experience, since it’s part of what determines how “nimble” a mouse is, or how much it prevents vertical movement. I have relaxed claw style, so the way the front-right side flares out really affects the way my right ring finger grips. On the NP-01, it’s just a tiny bit wider there, and that’s just enough to start pushing out against my ring finger. I wish there was a size between the 01 and the 01s.
Great to see you actually review this mouse in depth , i love the np01 . Also, did you see endgame finally put the Xm2w up for preorder? What’s your thoughts on it? Soo excited for that mouse ..
Yeah I saw that and already put in my preorder. The spec sheets looks insanely promising and the xm1r was already one of my most used mice last year so I'm super excited to see the shape updated. It looks like it should become the best mouse on the market as long as they are able to keep the insane build quality with the reduced weight.
Hey, I use a pincer claw grip with 17.5x9.5 hands on the GPW. I’m not sure if I should pick up the xm2w, za13 or np-01/np-01s for my hand size? I mainly play csgo/valorant
Your reviews are CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED! That's MY opinion. Keep at this. I definitely enjoy OG RJN he revolutionised this market, and Fresh Reviews and Boardzy are decent for sure, but you are on another level, with detail and nuance. I appreciate that.
Great review as always Krafty. I have still been maining the G303 and haven't looked back but I was curious about the NP01, because when I tried the NP01S as per your recommendation, it always felt too small and gave me hand fatigue. Upon remeasuring my hand, I actually have 18x11 hands, so I wondered if I would have a better experience with the bigger NP01 and with the new all matte coating. I'm not surprised why the XM1R and now the G303 are my favorites, I think I prefer medium-large mice due to my hand size. But for me, I'm not willing to really go out and try the NP01 unless it will at least be better than the XM1R for me. So any thoughts on the XM1R vs NP01?
First, I would recommend that you try out btl grips on the sides of the np-01s. They add a little bit of width to the mouse which makes it more comfortable and reduced the fatigue that I also experienced. It would be much cheaper to do this than try out an all new mouse. The np-01 should still be a great fit for you if you choose to pick it up though. The hump size is pretty similar to the xm1 so you should get that same bulky feel but the curvy nature of the np-01 will fill your hand much more fluidly as compared to the jagged, diamond shaped back on the xm1. One shape isn't really better than the other and it will really depend on whether you like how aggressive the xm1 feels and want to stick with that, or if you want something smoother and more comfortable feeling like the np-01.
I hope they come up with some new models 2023. I'd love a wireless version of this one and maybe slightly bigger versions of their current lineup. My handsize is 20x11cm.
thanks for your reviews, very helpful in making actually informed purchases for me. edit: just noticed you also have a wrist rag for your keyboard hand lmaooooo my man.
do you know of good fingertip mice? or someone who covers them? I love your reviews but since my grip is much more like fingertip grip I feel it will help me much more when choosing a mouse
The G denotes that the mouse has a glossy coating. With the original np-01, the g version came with a few revisions that are now seen on all vaxee mice so it was important an np-01g but now those same updates are brought to all their mice so you're fine picking whatever will suit you best.
coming from an mm711 i find it a bit too wide and short, thinking of getting a mouse that has a similar hump to it but doesnt seem that theres anything like it sadly
The za13-c sounds pretty perfect for you actually. The hump is similarly shaped but less wide and bulbous feeling. It's also noticeably longer so it's not as stubby feeling in hand as the mm710.
Corepads feel great on the Saturn. They work great on all pads and the Saturn is no exception. They create less friction than stock feet so the pad will a little faster and less restrictive, but everything will still be very controllable since corepads do well to retain a surfaces texture which helps the Saturn's tiny bit of abrasiveness grab your feet and add stopping power. Plus the feet are very smooth which always feels great for control pads.
Its the Vaxee PA Winter21 edition. This specific colorway was limited edition so it's not available anymore but there are a few other options in stock now on their site. www.vaxee.co/en/product.php?cid=1#37
I’ll be honest 25 mins and no gameplay with the mouse side by side or anything felt very tedious to watch. Maybe it’s just me because I guess I have lower than average attention span. Love your detailed thoughts and analysis though, one of the best from the mouse reviewers I follow.

For someone who mains an EC2-B with a hybrid palm-claw grip and thinks that it is slightly too big, how the NP-01 compares?
I want to try a Vaxee mouse, but I can't choose. Coming from Viper Ultimate which do you think is best one to try?
The np-01s would probably be your best bet, especially coming from the viper ulti.
What mouse bungee do you use
what are your favorite mice for claw grip? Im very excited for the xm1 wireless
My favorite shapes for claw are the g303se, za13-c, s2-c, np-01s, and xm1r in that order.
