a</text><text start="3.879" dur="3.52">personal favorite so I&amp;#39;m glad I get to</text><text start="5.4" dur="3.36">use it again for review purposes I&amp;#39;ll be</text><text start="7.399" dur="3.601">looking at the white version in this</text><text start="8.76" dur="4.2">video and comparing it to the ec1a and</text><text start="11" dur="3.4">also the black versions it&amp;#39;s essentially</text><text start="12.96" dur="3.56">the same Mouse but there are some minor</text><text start="14.4" dur="3.6">improvements to the shell and feel so</text><text start="16.52" dur="2.8">even though the white mice are basically</text><text start="18" dur="3.039">the same I wanted to take this</text><text start="19.32" dur="3.56">opportunity to update the review format</text><text start="21.039" dur="3.761">for them there is a difference on the</text><text start="22.88" dur="4.68">buttons see when I press them in on the</text><text start="24.8" dur="4.2">old ec2a they fall short of the edge</text><text start="27.56" dur="3.08">anyone who has the fingers hanging over</text><text start="29" dur="3.439">the top will feel it&amp;#39;s sh up but on the</text><text start="30.64" dur="3.599">new one they&amp;#39;re in line so there&amp;#39;s no</text><text start="32.439" dur="3.44">Edge sticking out here&amp;#39;s a tour of the</text><text start="34.239" dur="3.561">mouse so you know what it looks like so</text><text start="35.879" dur="3.921">the coat is glossy white plastic but it</text><text start="37.8" dur="4">retains the same 16-step scroll wheel</text><text start="39.8" dur="3.72">and black side buttons some people find</text><text start="41.8" dur="3.16">that it handles sweat better others</text><text start="43.52" dur="3.16">don&amp;#39;t I think it has something to do</text><text start="44.96" dur="4.16">with how people grip it this is how I</text><text start="46.68" dur="3.96">hold the mouse in fact most mice I have</text><text start="49.12" dur="3.48">the tip of my thumb placed underneath</text><text start="50.64" dur="3.759">the side buttons and my fingertips in</text><text start="52.6" dur="3.959">line with the scroll wheel even with wet</text><text start="54.399" dur="3.84">hands I&amp;#39;ve never lost grip of the mouse</text><text start="56.559" dur="3.601">the thing I love so much about zo mice</text><text start="58.239" dur="3.8">is the subtle Brilliance in the design I</text><text start="60.16" dur="3.239">didn&amp;#39;t even know why I liked it at first</text><text start="62.039" dur="3.041">but for some reason they just felt</text><text start="63.399" dur="3.281">better than others what I&amp;#39;ve learned</text><text start="65.08" dur="3.24">since then is that they have all these</text><text start="66.68" dur="3.64">little curves look under the side</text><text start="68.32" dur="3.68">buttons for example there&amp;#39;s a tiny ledge</text><text start="70.32" dur="3.24">there that allows you to grip the mouse</text><text start="72" dur="3.24">and also prevent you from slipping and</text><text start="73.56" dur="3.16">hitting the side buttons but it&amp;#39;s so</text><text start="75.24" dur="2.919">small it doesn&amp;#39;t actually get in the way</text><text start="76.72" dur="3.12">when you do want to press them you</text><text start="78.159" dur="3.241">barely even know it&amp;#39;s there it&amp;#39;s just</text><text start="79.84" dur="2.88">comfortable I usually have my thumb at</text><text start="81.4" dur="2.88">the base I just move it up to the</text><text start="82.72" dur="3.439">buttons when I&amp;#39;m going to press them but</text><text start="84.28" dur="3.44">no matter where my thumb is on that side</text><text start="86.159" dur="3.32">it feels good on the other side we have</text><text start="87.72" dur="3.759">a subtle inward curve that allows a</text><text start="89.479" dur="3.241">little finger a place to rest and grip</text><text start="91.479" dur="2.881">and it feels like there&amp;#39;s just enough of</text><text start="92.72" dur="3.6">a curve at the end for the ring finger</text><text start="94.36" dur="3.52">to lift the mouse and also relax then</text><text start="96.32" dur="3.159">the Groves and the buttons they&amp;#39;re not</text><text start="97.88" dur="3.4">deep but they feel good and give you the</text><text start="99.479" dur="3.441">extra surface area to press down on</text><text start="101.28" dur="3.4">making button presses feel better than a</text><text start="102.92" dur="3.32">flat surface the backs of my fingers</text><text start="104.68" dur="2.88">have rested over the top of the mouse</text><text start="106.24" dur="3.519">but the back doesn&amp;#39;t actually touch my</text><text start="107.56" dur="4.36">palm in my current grip so for me it&amp;#39;s</text><text start="109.759" dur="3.761">mostly about shape balance and weight as</text><text start="111.92" dur="3.159">long as the sensor is good enough those</text><text start="113.52" dur="3.68">are the three most important factors for</text><text start="115.079" dur="3.881">aiming and FPS in my opinion and the</text><text start="117.2" dur="4.04">shape and balance are great on the EC</text><text start="118.96" dur="4.799">series and the weight is good at 93 G</text><text start="121.24" dur="5.12">for the ec2 but strangely the wi version</text><text start="123.759" dur="5.12">of the ec1 is about 100 G whereas the</text><text start="126.36" dur="3.92">previous version was about 96 here are</text><text start="128.879" dur="3.601">some comparisons with other mice so you</text><text start="130.28" dur="4.239">know the basic size of them the ec1a is</text><text start="132.48" dur="3.96">of course bigger than the ec2a the</text><text start="134.519" dur="3.561">button slope is gradual and the hump is</text><text start="136.44" dur="3.36">in the middle these are suitable for all</text><text start="138.08" dur="5">grip Styles it just depends on your hand</text><text start="139.8" dur="5.88">size the ec2 grip width is about 5.6 cm</text><text start="143.08" dur="3.96">and the ec1 is about 6.1 it depends</text><text start="145.68" dur="4.24">where you place your thumb and the</text><text start="147.04" dur="5.96">lengths are about 12.1 on the ec2 and</text><text start="149.92" dur="6">12.8 maybe 13 on the ec1 both Heights</text><text start="153" dur="6.2">are about 4 cm I recommend the ec2a for</text><text start="155.92" dur="6.52">people with 19 by 9.5 CM hands and the</text><text start="159.2" dur="4.52">uc1 for people with 21x 10.5 I think</text><text start="162.44" dur="2.92">they would be ideal for aiming with</text><text start="163.72" dur="3.799">those sizes but they can still suit</text><text start="165.36" dur="3.879">other hand sizes of course as you see by</text><text start="167.519" dur="3.041">the size cide moving on to the buttons</text><text start="169.239" dur="4">here&amp;#39;s a listen to the clicks between</text><text start="170.56" dur="2.679">the old and new</text><text start="178.84" dur="4">versions for</text><text start="212.84" dur="3">there have been a lot of complaints</text><text start="214" dur="3.64">about hanana switches being too tight</text><text start="215.84" dur="3.759">but I&amp;#39;ve used a lot of mice most of</text><text start="217.64" dur="3.84">which had ran switches and many actually</text><text start="219.599" dur="3.84">felt tighter than these so maybe it&amp;#39;s a</text><text start="221.48" dur="3.52">shell causing the tightness on these new</text><text start="223.439" dur="3.44">wide versions even with the hanano</text><text start="225" dur="3.28">switches they feel lighter I still think</text><text start="226.879" dur="2.761">they need to be separate from the shell</text><text start="228.28" dur="3.039">but I can&amp;#39;t imagine people thinking</text><text start="229.64" dur="3.4">these are too tight the scroll wheel has</text><text start="231.319" dur="4.041">a fairly good click but I&amp;#39;m still not a</text><text start="233.04" dur="4.08">fan of the 16 step wheel in game or in</text><text start="235.36" dur="3.159">browsing the side buttons feel a bit</text><text start="237.12" dur="3.6">better but they still have too much</text><text start="238.519" dur="3.521">trouble and are a bit flimsy but zoi</text><text start="240.72" dur="3.28">know of these concerns and they&amp;#39;re</text><text start="242.04" dur="3.919">working on them the DPI button is on the</text><text start="244" dur="3.64">base out of the way in the latency</text><text start="245.959" dur="4.401">testing they seem fairly similar to the</text><text start="247.64" dur="4.4">g403 just slightly slower no problems in</text><text start="250.36" dur="4.159">game for me using them the sensor is</text><text start="252.04" dur="4.159">still the 3310 but as I use the fk2 as</text><text start="254.519" dur="3.761">my main Mouse I have no problem with</text><text start="256.199" dur="4.32">that some say they can feel the 3360</text><text start="258.28" dur="4.199">being smoother but I don&amp;#39;t agree zooming</text><text start="260.519" dur="4.12">in it tracks pixel by pixel and quite</text><text start="262.479" dur="4.28">smoothly so sniper and tracking aim is</text><text start="264.639" dur="3.241">on point I don&amp;#39;t have an accurate test</text><text start="266.759" dur="3">but it doesn&amp;#39;t seem like there&amp;#39;s</text><text start="267.88" dur="4.599">acceleration on this sensor lift off</text><text start="269.759" dur="4.641">distance is one DVD on cloth two on hard</text><text start="272.479" dur="3.72">pads but that can be changed just</text><text start="274.4" dur="3.96">holding Mouse for with the left or right</text><text start="276.199" dur="3.881">button or both while plugging it in and</text><text start="278.36" dur="3.24">there&amp;#39;s no delay as far as I&amp;#39;m aware in</text><text start="280.08" dur="4.48">the line test it performs just as well</text><text start="281.6" dur="4.96">as a 3366 no problems at all for the</text><text start="284.56" dur="3.919">build when tapping it it sounds fine and</text><text start="286.56" dur="3.8">when shaking it there&amp;#39;s almost no rattle</text><text start="288.479" dur="3.361">at all just a little bit on the scroll</text><text start="290.36" dur="3.48">the cable is thicker than the one on the</text><text start="291.84" dur="4.84">FK but it&amp;#39;s still smooth and flexible</text><text start="293.84" dur="4.359">and about 7 ft or 2.1 M long and they</text><text start="296.68" dur="3.16">have the same two large Mouse feet which</text><text start="298.199" dur="3.681">Glide smoothly they should come with the</text><text start="299.84" dur="3.72">replacement set in the Box no software</text><text start="301.88" dur="4.319">on these to rebind the buttons you must</text><text start="303.56" dur="4.32">do it in game so in conclusion the EC</text><text start="306.199" dur="3.201">series is still one of my favorite I</text><text start="307.88" dur="3.68">always enjoy using them and can play</text><text start="309.4" dur="3.44">extremely well I&amp;#39;m using the zoi fk2</text><text start="311.56" dur="3.199">these days because it is slightly</text><text start="312.84" dur="3.28">smaller and that means I am just a bit</text><text start="314.759" dur="3.081">better with it plus because it&amp;#39;s</text><text start="316.12" dur="3.48">ambidextrous I think it might be a bit</text><text start="317.84" dur="3.44">more balanced that&amp;#39;s a fingertip grip</text><text start="319.6" dur="3.56">Mouse though if you&amp;#39;re using claw or</text><text start="321.28" dur="3.759">Palm you might want to stick to the EC</text><text start="323.16" dur="3.84">series the new white coat looks cool and</text><text start="325.039" dur="3.641">feels great I&amp;#39;ve really enjoyed using it</text><text start="327" dur="3.24">but zoi told me it will be a limited</text><text start="328.68" dur="3.239">offer so hopefully you can get one</text><text start="330.24" dur="3.12">before they&amp;#39;re all gone the good news is</text><text start="331.919" dur="3.441">the new shipments of the Black Version</text><text start="333.36" dur="3.48">should be similar to this so no loss if</text><text start="335.36" dur="3.36">you miss out you just won&amp;#39;t get the</text><text start="336.84" dur="3.919">glossy coat or the white shell these are</text><text start="338.72" dur="3.96">a great choice anyway so a big thanks to</text><text start="340.759" dur="3.121">Zoe for getting me these copies early if</text><text start="342.68" dur="2.32">you want to help support the channel</text><text
