QPAD is a very dedicated manufacturer, or its focus is relatively concentrated, that is, it claims to focus on the E-sports field, which also makes the update speed of its related products slow or very slow. Before QPAD 8K Laser, there were only three mouse products, and the release time was more than two years or even longer. Of course, manufacturers cannot use the product update speed to judge whether it is good or bad, but with the improvement of the corresponding technology, the technical parameters of the old products seem to be a little inadequate.
The previous flagship product of QPAD, namely QPAD 5K L.E., was released in 2012. Of course, in terms of hardware configuration, the Agilent A9800 laser sensor used by QPAD is no inferior today. It can be seen from the fact that the latest QPAD 8K Laser also uses the A9800 laser sensor. The main upgrade lies in more powerful lighting effects, driving applications and detailed experience.
The biggest update and difference between QPAD 8K Laser and its own products lies in the design of the outer packaging. The packaging design of QPAD 8K Laser is more like a modern product, which is more compact, protective and more beautiful. On the package, there are still a variety of features and selling points. The key points are that the ARM control unit, 7 keys, and the maximum 8200CPI are used. Of course, what is more critical is that QPAD 8K Laser has added the currently popular RGB lighting effect support.
In terms of accessories, QPAD has always been stingy. The three previous products, QPAD OM-75, 5K, and 5K L.E., only included a pair of foot pads. This time, the QPAD 8K Laser is slightly more impressive, with a mouse storage bag. The size of the mouse storage bag is quite large. It is not a problem to store two QPAD 8K Lasers completely. Although the mouse storage bag is good, it's a bit stingy if you don't give the floor mat away.
At present, QPAD has four mouse products, which are OM-75, 5K, 5K L.E. and 8K Laser according to the positioning order from low to high. In fact, you can regard it as a product. Why do you say that? This is because these four products all use the same shape mold, but the details and internal hardware have changed.
It has been several years since this set of mold was used on four products, which is relatively rare. Of course, there is no need to think too much. After all, this set of abrasive tool QPAD is designed very well and performs very well in the feel. It is a good affirmation that there is no change.
Due to different molds, the four models of mouse have no difference in general direction, such as surface coating and lighting effects. For example, QPAD 8K Laser uses skin like materials, and RGB backlight support is added to the scroll wheel and logo. Another small detail is that the shape of the USB interface has changed.
QPAD 8K Laser continues the same five finger grip style, that is, the unique design of the side skirt, which makes the grip very comfortable. The side skirt provides a supporting position and distinction between the ring finger and the little finger, which can be comfortably spread and placed in the palm during use. This design can effectively relieve the fatigue of grasping the palm caused by tension during the intense game. The surface of QPAD 8K Laser is made of skin like material. The touch and long-term use feel are better than the mirror of OM-75.
With the use of RGB backlight for mechanical keyboard becoming more and more popular, many mice have also added RGB backlight. Of course, adding RGB backlight to the mouse is a bit boring. After all, various lighting effects are basically ignored in use. In QPAD 8K Laser, RGB backlight support is added to its scroll wheel and logo. It can set the light effect and color in the drive, and can also carry out simple linkage with QPAD keyboard products.
Another upgrade of QPAD 8K Laser is its driver software. At present, QPAD still designs a set of driver software according to one product, and it does not realize linkage under the same brand, which is a bit inconvenient. The driver software of QPAD 8K Laser is quite easy to use, with a more simple and easy to use interface and a speech in Chinese, which makes it more comfortable to use.
QPAD 8K Laser has a total of seven keys, all of which support independent programming, and powerful functions such as macro recording can also be performed in the driver software. In addition, the same is true for backlight settings. The backlight of QPAD 8K Laser is RGB backlight. The scroll wheel and logo can be set in different colors, and the backlight mode and speed can be selected. In addition, such as silent height and CPI switching are also implemented in the driver software.
QPAD 8K Laser is a long-awaited update. Considering that it has been more than two years since the last QPAD 5K L.E., it is also a bit strange. All aspects of QPAD 8K Laser's performance are flagship performance. At present, the still powerful Agilent A9800 laser sensor and the newly added RGB lighting effect are all selling points. Of course, the more important thing is that its performance in the feel is quite comfortable. For the current price of 599 yuan, a little lower would be a better time to buy.
