On CES2018, peripheral manufacturers also made efforts. Following the pirate ship and the "reborn" Mad Catz, Thundersnake also released many new products on the evening of January 9, Beijing time, including the flagship mouse Manba+wireless powered mouse pad Firefly Hyperflux suite.
In terms of the mouse shape itself, Manba Hyperflux is not very different from other mamba cobras we are familiar with, but there are also some new considerations in some details. For example, a button for switching mouse configuration is added on the side. The RGB light has become a scroll wheel, brand logo and a small light bar at the tail of the mouse.
As Raytheon's flagship product, the basic hardware of Manba Hyperflux is certainly not ambiguous. The 5G optical engine brings 16000DPI performance, up to 450IPS and 50G acceleration. It is easy to see that these parameters are from the original top engine PMW3389. In addition, we have used 50 million times of fretting. We have seen such a combination on Agkistrodon acutus economic version, Basiliss snake and other products. It is the top level of Razor, and more reliable than the 5G Philips laser engine of Agkistrodon acutus wireless version, which is called "orphan engine".
Of course, the hardware parameters of the mouse are not the highlight of Manba Hyperflux. Its biggest feature is that as a wireless mouse, it has no battery and is powered purely by the mouse pad, which also controls its weight to 96 grams, which is a level suitable for competitive game mice. In addition, some people may worry about whether it can't work without the paired mouse pad. In fact, it can also be used as a wired mouse.
As a "suit", the wireless powered mouse pad Firefly Hyperflux also has many highlights. The size of the mouse pad is 355 * 282.5 * 12.9mm, with hard and cloth surfaces that can be replaced, and Razer Chroma 16.8 million color light bars that can cooperate with the mouse for a series of light effect linkage. Of course, the biggest feature is that it can power Manba Hyperflux.
Manba+Firefly's Hyperflux suite and Mad Catz's R A. T. AIR has the same thing. It is also the design of wireless mouse+mouse pad with direct power supply. In terms of use, it is more convenient than the pirate ship's scheme (Qi wireless charging in specific areas, which cannot be moved during charging). Compared with Logitech's scheme, the mouse itself is lighter. Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. When the Logitech and Pirate Ship solutions are separated from the supporting mouse pad, the mouse itself can at least work as a wireless mouse for a period of time, while Manba Hyperflux is obviously not. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for users who use it in fixed occasions for a long time.
Another concern is whether the mouse will be disconnected immediately when Manba Hyperflux is lifting the mouse (some gamers occasionally need to lift and move the mouse significantly). This is also a problem that greatly affects the use experience. This problem may not be revealed until the related products are officially launched. The Hyperflux package of Manba+Firefly will be launched in March 2018 at a price of 1999 yuan.
