Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Razer Exactmat with Exactrest Gaming Mouse Pad & Wrist Rest--Black
Customer Review: Fours stars but probably the best on the market.
Summary: 4 Stars
Almost $40 for a mat. Crazy right? Well, yes actually. That is, it's crazy to combo this with a normal mouse. But it's worth every single penny if your mouse itself is more than decent. I honestly believe this is one of the best on the market. It has a decent size, not overly large but covers enough space to get tasks done, not to mention the sleek look is reason enough alone to upgrade over a cloth pad. The wrist rest takes some getting used to. It's raised a good length off the table causing the hand to be level with the mouse. After a few hours, the initial discomfort wears off and does its job to prevent fatigue. Even though it's not uncomfortable anymore. I do need to mention I still have yet to shake the non-ergonomical feel it gives.
Now to the meat of the review. The mat contains dual sides. One for speed and the other for control. The speed side is extremely slick and very handy for gaming. It may only give a partial second but this can make all the difference in the long run. Minimal friction. The control side is more for precision and intends to add a bit more friction. It really doesn't succeed as well in this aspect though. Yes it adds more friction but this makes only a minor difference. The mouse just glides over the rough surface. It slows it down a little and I suppose that's its intent but I really couldn't make use of the minor slowdown. A partial second in speed is one thing but control is something entirely different.
I highly recommend this mat. It's pricey but well worth it in the long run. One of the dual sides is rather pointless in my preference and the wrist rest still doesn't quite feel ergonomic, but the rest is perfection. And the rest more than make up for the few flaws.
EDIT: Well after about a year's usage I have to say I was mistaken. Horribly. The Teflon coating has worn off on BOTH sides of the mat making it very rough and gritty. The skates on my mouse started getting scratched up too. I couldn't figure out the cause of this, but now I realize, it's because the coating is rubbing off the pad and attaching to my mouse making it scratch. What's worse is, this started happening about a month after I bought it. Save your money. Do not buy this pad. My poor mouse, I apologize daily for subjecting it to this horrible item.
