To my surprise, there weren't many hard mouse pads. When I used to game I loved my icemat and funcpad. I tried a bunch of the popular mouse pads that many of the well known gamers used qck heavy, qck+, G640, GSR Hyperx Fury S, destructor, Glorious gaming race, gigantus, and the goliathus. I wasn't happy with any of them because they were all too slow (except the destructor, which was too small). So I ended up getting this one, because while the reviews weren't that great, the majority of the bad reviews centered around the mousepad being rolled up and placed into the box. I randomly heard that zowie was now shipping these in a flat box instead, so I decided to give it a try. I was very happy that I did! This is definitely my new favorite mousepad and I urge anyone who doesn't like how muddy cloth pads feel to try this one. I'm also happy I found this before purchasing some of the other pure hard mousepads, like the GP3 Heaton, because I like how this is a hybrid between a hard pad and a soft. It's pretty comfortable for how fast the surface is. I wrote some quick reviews on the other mousepads that I've tried. I'm going to paste it here in case you were wondering how different they might be: When comparing these pads I’m comparing them to each other. So if I say one feels slow or fast it's just in comparison to other pads in this list. This can vary from person to person and also depending on the mouse you are using. G640 Medium initial friction (slightly more than the qck) Medium dynamic friction Very smooth. Not grainy or uneven like some other pads. Glide feels amazing. If you like the qck I feel like this is a nice step up. Feels very premium except no stitched edges (I prefer not having stitched edges) Lays very flat right away Logo is raised and can get in the way My second favorite on this list is the G640 because of how smooth it feels. The only reason I didn’t stop there and just use it as my main is because I didn’t like the amount of initial friction. If you like the GSR or the qck or some of the razer pads, then I would definitely try this. It doesn’t have as much initial friction of the GSR. Price is on the higher side. Qck+ Medium initial friction Medium dynamic Feels grainy Lays flat right away No frills and good price (especially during a sale). This is a great mousepad to figure out if you like more or less friction because it’s kind of in the middle of all the popular cloth pads. Glorious Low to medium initial friction Low to medium dynamic friction Feels a little bit grainy, but not as much as the qck. Have a ton of different choices in sizes and thickness. The glorious is in my opinion the best all around pad here. There is some friction, but not too much. The price is good (especially during sales). The sizes are amazing. The availability is good. For me it just isn’t fast enough. Surface kept the same speed after a while of use and a couple of cycles in the washing machine. I used the low impact setting and gentle detergent. Hyperx Fury S Pro Low initial friction Low-medium dynamic friction Hard to roll flat (3 days of books and 1 day of rolling backwards with rubber bands and it still was not flat) Was surprised at how fast this one was. Not much initial friction compared to G640 and qck. Loses some of the speed after a short period of 3-4 weeks. The hyperx felt good in terms of speed for me, but the fact that it wore down so quickly and never laid completely flat made me want to keep looking. Zowie GTFX Very low initial friction Very low dynamic friction Ships flat now My personal favorite is the GTF-X because I really like hard and speed pads. I’d like to keep trying pads in this speed range next year to see if there’s anything else I might like now that I know what I’m looking for. I place more importance on tracking than on quick flicks. I have a hard time aiming regularly if there’s too much initial friction, which is why I love this pad so much. It lets me make micro adjustments quickly, which I have a hard time doing with some of these other pads. I definitely understand why some people might not like it because they have a hard time controlling their flicks. Razer Gigantus This one is a pretty cool surface, but just too much initial friction. It’s like the GSR, but with a bit less initial friction and still a TON of stopping power. The raised logo is pretty big. Multiple designs if you shop on the razer site. A bit expensive Similar to the G640, but the Gigantus doesn’t feel as smooth. Gigantus has a little more stopping power. Stitched edges (I believe some of the designs can be purchased without stitched edges, but I don’t have that one) Razer Goliathus Speed (Overwatch Edition) This felt a lot like the Glorious to me. Feels good all around. Maybe a little bit smoother without as much graininess as the glorious. The friction feels about the same. Razer Destructor I used an original destructor for a while. It was my first pad after using Allsop pads many many many years ago. I really like the destructor and could see myself using it as my main if it was a bigger size. Some pads I want to eventually try Artisan Raiden XL MID Custom glass pad? Any recommendations for fast pads??? Some pads you might want to try (They are probably not fast enough for me) DM Pad L PureTrak Talent AMP500 (I really want to try this one, but it’s probably going to be between the speed of the GTF-X and the other pads on this list, so I will probably pass even though I might like it) Review: The perfect mousepad - 20 Month Update! - PROS - Ships in FLAT BOX (no rolled up edges!!!) Perfect size! (13.5" wide x 12" tall) Outstanding stitching and grip CONS - You don't own it yet I came from the GTF-X which is the same pad but in a larger format. I LOVED my GTF-X, my mouse would glide effortlessly over the surface with minimal friction, and yet plenty of control. However, after nearly a year of flawless use I started to feel that the pad was just a bit too big for my taste. Looking around for alternatives I came across the smaller format version, but was hesitant to purchase because I wasn't certain the PTF-X size would be large enough, and others were complaining about receiving the mousepad rolled up in a tube which guarantees your pad will NEVER sit flat. Suffice it to say none of these problems were evident upon receipt. Pad is a perfect size, (Maybe 1/2" too narrow? I could go for 14" instead of 13.5" but adjustment will happen I'm sure) and it was shipped in a flat box preserving integrity. Zero complaints here, call me a satisfied customer! UPDATE -- Still using this pad, and it's going strong! After 20 months, it remains in great shape (make sure you clean it regularly with water and a cloth) and feels nice and smooth with my Zowie ZA13 mouse. There's some light wear on the stitching, but that's all. I've easily adjusted to the size, and it remains my all time favorite mousepad. 100% stand by it and Zowie, BENQ has my vote of confidence. From the looks of it, there's still several years of heavy use remaining and I will 100% purchase this mousepad again when it inevitably wears out. ## Features - Unique combination of cloth and plastic mousepads - Uniquely designed base offers increased stability on any surface - Liquid resistant surface for easy maintenance - Triple-stitched edges prevents fraying and increases the lifetime of the pad - Rolled edges for added comfort while playing ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01BDKU3XO | | Additional Features | Chloroprene rubber, Low friction surface, Smooth, Stitched edges | | Antenna Location | Gaming | | Best Sellers Rank | #589,770 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #10,989 in Mouse Pads | | Brand | BenQ | | Built-In Media | GTF-X Mousepad | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 349 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Chloroprene rubber | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00840046034184, 02724601869832 | | Item Dimensions L x W | 18.5"L x 15.3"W | | Item Thickness | 3.5 Millimeters | | Item Weight | 0.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | BenQ | | Material | Chloroprene rubber | | Mfr Part Number | GTF-X | | Model Number | GTF-X | | Product Dimensions | 18.5"L x 15.3"W | | Recommended Uses For Product | Gaming | | Shape | Rectangular | | Size | 18.5L x 15.3W inches | | Special Feature | Chloroprene rubber , Low friction surface, Smooth, Stitched edges | | UPC | 840046034184 | | Warranty Description | No warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** BenQ - **Color:** Black - **Material:** Rubber - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Gaming - **Special Feature:** Chloroprene rubber, Low friction surface, Smooth, Stitched edges ## Images ![PTF-X - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51bzgX3dT8S.jpg) ![PTF-X - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vnTph6oKS.jpg) ![PTF-X - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51u4Dkk-ilS.jpg) ![PTF-X - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61HZaQiaDVS.jpg) ![PTF-X - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Uufi+lDpS.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect *by K***O on September 18, 2018* I started gaming again on pc after many years.

My GTF-X was shipped flat, unlike some previous reviewers. I had no issues with cracking, or rolled edges. The packaging was so-so, but it did the job and makes for decent storage. Does not seem to play nicely with 400 DPI on a 3366. 800 was pretty buttery. I don't know if I love or hate this pad. Both, I guess. I haven't written it off, that's for sure. There is so little starting force required (as expected) that it does create a pretty magnificent sensation - without the grotesque scratching and plopping and loudness of a hard pad. That being said, there is minuscule (if any) stopping power on this mat. Prepare for a training period if you're playing CSGO: your precision will likely benefit but your flick will look a mess if you're used to something like the GS-R or even a G640. However, for less stop-intensive games, wrist-ey games, I would happily use this. The surface texture is pretty enjoyable and quality, especially with some decent mouse feet. It isn't as rough as people make it out to be - definitely much softer than a very high grade sand paper. It's a pleasure just to move the mouse around. I'd liken the "comfort" level to a Fury S Pro. It is rougher relative to other soft pads, but not rough in a more general sense. There's definitely polymer in there, but it's a pretty uniform surface overall. At middle sensitivities, it strikes me that the slipperiness may cause you to perpetually tighten your grip on your mouse to maintain control, causing strain. I didn't personally experience this after a few hours of a session, but it's something to consider. But, my primary qualm is that the GTF-X sticks to clothes pretty efficiently. If you're like me and game with your arm on the pad while you're wearing a hoodie or something, prepare for stickiness. If not, just know that it is not even remotely painful to move your skin over. It's just porous and adheres to everything except mice feet. TLDR; I've never owned a hard pad so I can't compare this to them. Shipped flat. A joy to use in a lot of ways, but stopping power is not its strength. Unrivaled pad if you're in the market for an extremely low-friction pad and are justifiably reluctant to play on a hard surface. Largely unaffected by humidity. I don't recommend it if you play FPS at low/mid sense wearing long sleeves, because your clothes will stick. That said, this boasts a truly unique surface and I recommend trying it if you're on the fence. ## Frequently Bought Together - BenQ Zowie PTF-X Gaming Mousepad for Esports I Low Friction Surface I Stitched Edges I Small Size - Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT Wireless Gaming Mouse, Ultra-Lightweight, HERO 25K Sensor, 25,600 DPI, 5 Programmable Buttons, Long Battery Life, Compatible with PC / Mac - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24641879-ptf-x](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24641879-ptf-x) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
