About this deal

I've tried to convince myself to switch to something else multiple times in the past decade+, but there is no suitable alternative because I need something small-ish to fit my desk space setup, and I actually like the cool feeling of glass, and the relatively ease to clean. That plus the Icemat just wouldn't damn break. Why would it though since it's just a slab of glass. 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。 Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO)の優秀かつ熱狂的なプレイヤーであったKenneth Skriver h(ケネス・スクリバー:SkyPAD CEO)は、愛用するガラス製マウスパッドが、すでにデンマークから姿を消していたことを知りました。 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.

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. 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 If you’re looking for a glass mouse pad, Skypad’s Mousepad 3.0 is an excellent option. You already know I’m inexplicably in love with the Razer Atlas, and the Mousepad 3.0 is, frankly, very, very similar in feel and performance. My two main concerns with the Atlas were its size, because it felt just a little too large to be easily incorporated in most desk setups, and its durability — mostly because Razer warns against using soap or harsh cleaning agents to clean the Atlas’s surface, likely to prevent removal of the oleophobic coating. 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. 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.I remember some of the earliest mice in Sun SPARCstations, which in 1989 already used an optical sensor but required a metal pad with optical markings etched into it to work. While the precision and speed was much better than the mechanical mice of the day (much less effort cleaning them, too), I quite remember being constantly irked by the metal's higher level of thermal conductivity: the right palm of my hand always felt a bit cold and that might have permanently biased me against anything pad underneath my mice. 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。 If you are the sweatier type and an arm aimer I would also strongly recommend a gaming sleeve. That’s because of the fact that, once your forearm gets a little sweaty, it will drastically change your experience when swiping. Think of running your body/hand over a glass pane when it’s completely dry versus when it’s still a bit wet from showering or swimming. It feels different, and it might impact your consistency. Với SkyPAD 3.0, tuy ý tưởng về lót chuột bằng kính không mới nhưng trong môi trường khắc nghiệt như xứ Scandinavian, lót chuột vải sẽ không bền như kính. SkyPAD không bị mòn, dễ vệ sinh cũng như độ ma sát cực thấp để vẩy chuột. Will seriously look into this and burst out tap measure to see if the medium one will fit my size requirement. Fits well with the color scheme of rest of my setup too.

Besides the speed and smoothness, the glass surface comes with another important advantage, that being the sheer durability that it has. The SkyPad will most likely never change in feeling and will be able to maintain its speed indefinitely. There are variables like you damaging the surface somehow that might influence that statement but under normal circumstances, this pad will last forever. Since then I've preferred to go padless on a XXL wooden table I built and painted myself at the time, whose surface I actually expected having to repaint periodically, but it's held up just fine so far. And in terms of thermal conductivity and touch comfort wood is very hard to beat.No problem, the SkyPAD has to be returned in its original box, with no damage to the product or box. But what I did learn is that this company sells multiple styles of "gaming sleeve" with the main selling point being: 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。
