Yup you're completely right with the weight balance, didn't notice it at all cause I mainly hold it at the back. Great review man, lots of various aspects I didn't realize at all and thx for the mention! Cheers

I love my hsk pro 4k when i flick i do suffer from instabilities im trying to figure out what i can connect it with the back plate so the mouse can hit after the stem of my thumb and touching my fleshy palm part to make it into a finger claw hybrid grip like a triangle of suport and not just 2 points of contral

Nice review 👌🏼 glad there are more options in the fingertip world now. I'm still loving the HSK best of the mice I've tried - though in my opinion more parallel sides would help because I had an issue with my hand sliding forward because of the shape and slope of the clicks. This is mitigated by grip tape on the sides and on the clicks but ideally it shouldn't be necessary

Great video but How is the 4k performance on m4?
@Cynixic 6 ай бұрын
i play finger tip on a gpx 2, thinking about upgrading my aiming setup im a top 5% aimlabs player, i have an aqua control plus, and tiger ice v2 on my gpx, thinking about getting the aqua control 2 the m4 and tiger ice skate v2 dots. Do you think this is a good investment. Ive heard the 4k implementation on the m4 is bad, a requirement for me is 4k at this point.. (My pc is well enough spec for it).
@LogPileGaming 5 ай бұрын
Hey Cynixic, you're way more cracked than I am!! I'd maybe check an M4 4k review if you're concerned about that specifically, I think it's a fun mouse and I expect you'll enjoy it, it is also very different to the GPX2 and very cheap by comparison. I would say go for it, and sell it off if you dont get on with it 🤷♂️
@animox6303 Ай бұрын
Do you think you could get that „aim with your eyes“ or „raw imput-> controlling the cursor with a geasture than manipulating an object“ feeling by balancing the m4? Either add some weight in the front or somehow remove weight in the back? Because i really wanna experience that feeling but don‘t wanna spend 3 times the amount of the m4 for it. Also crazy effort you put into your videos! I lovd it
@LogPileGaming Ай бұрын
It is worth a try 😁 the M4 is really fun, and if you haven't used anything like that before, it'll be a cool option to have on your desk 🫡

@@LogPileGaming do you think replacing the battery with a smaller one could help the imbalance and maybe get me the feeling of „aiming with your eyes „?

The weight balancing issue is actually quite serious in my opinion. Especially for those who fingertip it mostly from the front, like I do. Good find. Maybe it could be remedied by opening it up changing location of the battery?
@comkioxd 5 ай бұрын
You can grip it with all your fingers on the very front and you still won't notice a difference
@LogPileGaming 5 ай бұрын
I did consider moving the battery or just replacing it with a smaller one. But I didn't bother in the end. I am sure that would make a big difference.

Very good review. Thanks for making the video. Just wondering which mouse you aim best with, M4 or HSK?
@LogPileGaming 5 ай бұрын
Thanks man 😁 I think I aim better with the HSK, but I spent waaaay more time with that mouse so I'm not sure if it's just because I'm more faniliar with that shape?

I bought an Hsk pro 4k because of your reviews and it has been amazing, at least to me. Boardzy seems to hate it for some reason. Im kind of tempted to buy this also, looks so nice (but probably wont.) Did anyone here ever get the g-wolves macro software working? Id love to create rapid fire macro but the software is so confusing.

@@LogPileGaming he called it meme, unusable, bad, with flawed shape etc etc. he didn't write that from his point of view, but in general. A good reviewer would never let himself write something blatantly wrong like that, at least without even trying it out. And in general for fingertip mice size is less relevant. He just doesn't understand and that is fine, but not an excuse to write such nonsense especially with his reputation in the community. (If he meant to write his opinion he would say something like that mouse doesn't look good for my hand size/grip style etc)

I personally love the fingertip mouse I 3D printed. Probably won’t buy any of these fingertip mice that are just shrunken mice with lower than usual button height. Sorry if that sounds mean to the other fingertip mice on the market right now- just my opinion. Very nice video however 👍🏽

Clearly he's not a bad reviewer, but Boardzy reviewing the HSK is like me reviewing ladies sanitary products. If you're never going to use them, maybe consider not sharing an opinion on them. ALSO , it is just an opinion, and its got us talking. No hate to Big B.
