Razer Gigantus v2 Cloth Gaming Mouse Pad (XXL): Thick, High-Density Foam - Non-Slip Base - Classic Black

perfect. love razer, been using a deathadder since I was young, most of their products are great. Nice and dark black hue, Fits well, my mouse glides across well, and it is relatively thin, at a good weight. Great pick for a small black mousepad.

I'm a huge fan of large mouse pads, I guess it also becomes a keyboard pad. This mouse pad has the perfect slip resistance, meaning you feel just the perfect amount of friction against your mouse. The feel is nothing spectacular, however it doesn't need to be more than what it is, it is just a mouse pad. Both the build quality and overall quality of the mouse pad are good, I wasn't expecting more I wasn't expecting less. The size is what makes gaming very enjoyable, your mouth never slips off.Overall, I definitely recommend this mouse pad to everyone.

The Razer BlackWidow is one of the most iconic gaming keyboards of all time. It’s undergone numerous revisions over the years but today’s release marks new territory for the series with a new 65-percent compact form factor. If you found the ultra-compact Huntsman Mini too small but still like the idea of saving space on your desktop, this is a keyboard you won’t want to miss.If you’re coming from a full-size keyboard, expect a short learning curve. The V3 Mini doesn’t feature a function row and continues to hide less-used functions on secondary layers. This also applies to media controls and macros. To aid the learning curve, a number of the keys have side legends so you won’t need to guess what they do when pressed with Fn. These aren’t backlit, however, so you can’t see them in the dark.As a HyperSpeed product, the BlackWidow uses Razer’s latest wireless gaming technology to deliver wired-like performance without the need for a cord. This is the same tech found on some of the company’s premier wireless peripherals like the Orochi V2, one of our best gaming mice of 2021, and BlackWidow V3 Pro. Gone are the days of wireless peripherals lagging behind their wired counterparts. The BlackWidow V3 Mini was just as responsive whether it was connected over USB or with the 2.4GHz dongle.The new dongle has another trick up its sleeve: multi-device support. If you also happen to use a compatible Razer HyperSpeed mouse, you can pair it to the dongle inside Synapse and control both with a single USB port. This doesn’t apply to all HyperSpeed products yet (my Basilisk Ultimate wouldn’t work), but if you happen to own an Orochi V2, DeathAdder V2 Pro, or Naga Pro, you can store that dongle back in its compartment.Given its size and relatively steep price, you might want to take it on the go and the V3 Mini is ready to connect in any scenario. In addition to HyperSpeed wireless, it also features Bluetooth and wired USB support. Bluetooth has noticeably more latency than HyperSpeed or wired, so isn’t the ideal choice for gaming. Instead, I used it to quickly switch my laptop and desktop. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to use the bluetooth connection when charging, which is disappointing. I also wish there were a key combination to enter bluetooth mode instead of being forced to flip the switch on the back. First world problems, but when up and coming brands like Epomaker make swapping modes easier, it stands out.Despite multiple connection options, the V3 Mini sports an impressive battery life up to 200 hours. That’s a best case scenario with backlighting disabled and drops substantially depending on your lighting settings. Unlike some wireless keyboards, the Mini doesn’t cap the brightness of the backlight when wireless. At 100% brightness battery life drops all the way to 17 hours on spectrum cycling mode. Cut that brightness to 30% and it jumps back up to 48 hours. If you do happen to run dry, plugging in for 30 minutes will recharge the keyboard to 50% to get you back in the game quickly.Like the BlackWidow V3 Pro, the Mini HyperSpeed uses Razer’s doubleshot ABS keycaps (PBT is reserved for the Huntsman line) and your choice of clicky green or linear yellow Razer-branded switches. I was able to briefly test both versions but settled on the yellow switches. Razer’s new yellow switches feature internal dampers to cut down on key noise, so you won’t need to worry about bothering others around you. They’re also a speed switch. With an actuation force of 45 grams, they’re similar to Cherry MX Reds but trigger at 1.2mm instead of 2.0mm. That’s 40-percent faster and you can feel that sensitivity. My first day with the keyboard was frustratingly typo-filled until I got used to the lighter touch it requires.The keycaps are great and do an effective job of showing off the RGB. The legends are crisp and high-quality without the gamery feel and lettering gaps found on cheaper sets. They’re also much thicker than standard gaming keycaps and feel solid under the finger. Since they’re ABS, they will shine over time, but Razer has applied a light texture to their surface to ward off early wear and tear and to hide finger oils.Since this is a Razer gaming keyboard, you can look forward to all manner of programmability through its Synapse software. Of course, you have total control of the per-key RGB backlighting through a selection of good-looking presets or can customize or sync your own lighting animations through the Photoshop-esque Chroma Studio module. If you’d rather not use the software, the preset options are also stored on the keyboard’s memory, though avoiding Synapse will drastically reduce your customization options. No matter which you go with, it’s sure to be an eye-catching display of light and color thanks to the floating key design which exposes the translucent switch housings.The software also allows you to customize the layout of the keyboard with custom remaps, shortcuts, and macros. There are three onboard memory profiles to store settings for individual games, which is especially useful given the already compact layout. Creating your own keymaps is easy and intuitive thanks to key recording and an array of preset options for features like Windows shortcuts.Synapse has come a long way over the last several years and is well worth spending time with, but I still wish the BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed were not so dependent on it. For example, “on the fly” macro recording simply won’t work without it. Likewise, even though the keyboard is capable of producing 16 million colors, you can only choose between six for the three customizable presets built into the board. This simply pales in comparison to keyboards like the Ducky One 2 SF which has a similar form factor and doesn’t require software at all despite costing far less.Thanks to its small size and excellent connectivity, the BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed makes for an excellent travel keyboard. Over the course of my testing, I used it at work during the day and took it home for gaming at night. I had to send the clicky switch version back after two days, so the bulk of my testing was done using the Razer Yellow switches.Right off the bat, the Razer Yellow switches were a joy to type on. They’re smoother than Cherry MX Red, don’t have any spring noise, and feature internal sound damping to cut down on noise. They’re quiet enough to use in an office and softer to bottom out without feeling mushy. My first day was full of typos due to their increased sensitivity but by the time I got home to play games, I was used to the lighter touch they required. These are switches that will trigger simply from resting your fingers too heavily, but I found that actually taught me to bottom out less and made the keyboard even quieter to use.On the other hand, the larger keys were much louder than the rest due to poorly lubed stabilizers. Razer did apply a small amount but it wasn’t enough and there didn’t seem to be any in other places generating rattle, really defeating the purpose of the silenced switches on these keys. The backspace and spacebar were the worst offenders. I was able to fix this by adding some additional lube myself, but given how good the stabilizers have been on some of Razer’s other recent keyboards, and how expensive this board is, it really shouldn’t have been necessary.With both gaming and work, the 65-percent form factor was excellent. For navigating spreadsheets, word documents, and even browsing social media, the additional arrow and navigation keys were a godsend. 60-percent keyboards usually require advanced customization to make them fully and easily functional in these contexts. The Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini was easy to use, right out of the box, no programming required.Gaming with it was also easy and fun. Since it’s only one column wider than a 60-percent and roughly two columns narrower than a TKL, I was able to keep my hands closer together which made PC gaming more comfortable. Having the right-side keys double as macro buttons was also useful in World of Warcraft and let me keep my hands on the movement keys even when firing them off. Aesthetically, the smaller keyboard also fit right into with my PC gaming setup and looked clean due to the lack of wires.Dual-mode connectivity was useful but has room for improvement. I found myself switching between 2.4GHz and bluetooth regularly to work, game, or chat between my laptop and my desktop. Swapping connections is fast with only a couple seconds of delay but needing to flip a switch every time got old fast. HyperSpeed was reliably excellent no matter what game I was playing but bluetooth would occasionally feel sluggish with noticeable latency. Infrequently, it would miss keystrokes as if the connection had momentarily gone to sleep. It was usable but not something I wouldn’t attempt to game with.

My favorite mousing surface by far. This one felt like a good value at $40 given the size. I got lucky, this one is a near-perfect fit on the width and covers almost the entire depth of my desk.I've stuck with Razer's fabric-topped mouse pads for years now because I prefer their soft, slippery feel. Hopefully the lack of integrated electronics make this particular one easier to clean. The RGB lighting is nifty but I don't think I'll miss it.

I wanted to give this 5-stars because the mousepad is really spacious and is a great choice if you are a Valorant or Fortnite player, but it can be a bit of a pain to have to clean it often, we haven't had any of the issues with fraying and it has lasted a long time. Take care of the mousepad and it will take care of you!

Beautiful. Perfect texture. Perfect thickness. Smells on unboxing but smell seems to be quickly fading. I’m hoping that it will hold up over time.

I had bought this to use as a backup for a cheap mousepad that came with a keyboard/mouse combo set that I purchased for cheap. I had used it for only a couple weeks before I began to use this one and that was mainly due how I was disappointed in the mousepad. It wasn't very accurate and I often had issues when I needed precision and comfort over affordability and lack of real quality.As I began using the Razer mousepad more, though, I found it to be more accurate, durable, and it stayed in place more than the previous mousepad had. I also noted how effortlessly I could move my mouse across the surface and how free the movement had become. My aiming in my FPS games had improved vastly and I was doing much better since using the mousepad. This had become the biggest plus since using the pad and one that will always takes precedence when it comes to performance.I have yet to find a disadvantage to using the mousepad and the size is perfect for my current needs. I couch game so it is perfect for the end table that I am currently using for my mouse and pad. I will see how durable it is over time and if it frays or loses its coloration over long use as I have seen with some of the gaming mousepads that I have used over the years. If the pad doesn't exceed the usage and time that I feel is worth the purchase price (I have high standards when it comes to certain products), then I will edit both my review and the number of stars that I have given.Until then and if there is a need in a year or two (or if I just want to upgrade to something larger), I will purchase again.

Great quality and huge!
