BEST BUDGET MOUSEPAD YET | PK Control I Gaming Mousepad Review

[@Zufftino]

finding the hidden gems

[@Joltggs]

Ive had this pad for a couple months now and its a really good balanced pad, however when you first get the pad it does lean more towards a faster glide but doesn’t take long for it to slow down and balance out. The quality is great and feels better than its priced at. I just got a new one off aliexpress for 9 dollars, and not because my og one felt bad or anything but because I wanted a different color and its 9 bux. 10/10 would recommend

[@nAviGATEccv]

glad to hear just orderd mine

Im so proud to have shilled this to you with peppa 😎

And I'm so proud of you guys for finding and sharing it with the community

[@TiredWallaby29]

At what point do we look at these mousepad and just realize that mousepad companies are upcharging up 1000%? I found a mouse pad is exactly a thinner QCK for $4 from some random company...

[@jakeufps]

Most high quality cloth pads are around $5-8 in production (depending on if the brand uses a middle-man or not for production), but there are definitely some that are worth more/less than others. However, the whole segment has pushed so hard into consumerism that I'm much more hyped for a pad like the PK Control I than any other releases currently, since this once is actually worth its price tag.

[@Lenevor]

I find that mousepads from smaller companies(like with a lot of other things) are far cheaper than mainstream products. stg every big name brand in the tech/gaming industry is trying to milk its costumers dry

i concur

[@tt_fit]

Just ordered the pk control v1 and the v2. Will you be reviewing the v2? Stoked to try them

[@yhiz4757]

Ngl I just bought it because it was recommended to me by aliexpress. Decided to buy it for one of my friends cuz he has a rlly crappy old mousepad that I also gave to him but it was better than what he had. When I first got it tho I decided to test it out in valorant and apex and although in apex it was hard to go from a skypad to a textured plush control pad, on Valorant I fuckin POPPED off. Decided to buy another one for myself and it actually just arrived today XD

[@Keni1422]

I bought myself a v2 of this mousepad, paid 12$ for it in white color, absolute banger. I think im gonna also get v1 for less than 10$.

[@nedimhalilovic1]

I bought the upgraded version in white and next to my QCK Heavy it feels much better, more control than QCK Heavy and it looks way better

[@mohammadbaqer8305]

what its name the upgraded one

[@tt_fit]

@@mohammadbaqer8305it’s got the same name but says “upgraded” it has a checkered pattern

[@tt_fit]

Is the v2 cloth or hybrid? I just ordered both yesterday

[@Mullaa-uj4kg]

Hi Jake, do you still recommend this in 2024?

[@miriyo3048]

Jo Jake, did u test the two new versions of this pad? the white and black ones with a "cube" pattern

[@keithjones4072]

This - interested to hear!

[@miriyo3048]

​@@keithjones4072 I tried both. The ones without the pattern are more fluid and have less stopping power. The one with the pattern feels like something stops me from moving the mouse. Thats my impression so far. I`m using the one without pattern

[@tharukanisal460]

Hello, Jakeu. Can you please tell me how this mousepad react to sweaty arms.? i have problem sweating in arms while gaming & i using arm sleeve but I don't like using them. Is this pad not sticky when using with sweaty hands? thank you

[@jakeufps]

I could actually see it being a bit more sticky to sweaty arms than other pads...

[@tharukanisal460]

@@jakeufps Thanks for the reply.

[@izyzi69]

Is this pad affected by humidity?

[@sebasarribas8646]

I'm using a HyperX fury s (all black) and looking to upgrade to a hybrid pad with nice glide but good stoping power. Do you happen to know how this compares? I was considering a Tiger eba but this definitely suits my budget better. Nice content btw you have helped me tons with deciding on peripherals :)

[@jakeufps]

If you're looking for an awesome, balanced hybrid pad, this is definitely your next one, would be a huge upgrade from your Fury for sure. I can't compare it 1:1, but I'd definitely say it's a bit faster. Thank you so much! I'm very glad to have been of help for you!

[@sebasarribas8646]

@@jakeufps Thanks to you man! Keep it up :D

[@assohs]

@@sebasarribas8646 Dang I have the fury s from long ago :) This is a faster pad, but it feels so much nicer I really like it. Did you end up getting it?

[@sebasarribas8646]

@@assohs thanks for the comparison, it comes really handy as I have yet to get a replacement for my fury. Still, I think I'll probably end up getting the razer strider after thinking it thoroughly. Since I wrote the comment I got another mice that suits me better and made me consider the strider

[@Ottoni174]

this is basically a aqua control 2 but cheaper, i honestly feel like the pk is a tiny bit slower but also very consistent and a very very good mousepad for the price

[@karoli5012]

Would this be decent for r6. Right now I'm being kinda capped cus rn my mouse pad feels so fast (I have the mpc450 or something it's a cordura pad from egg) and my aim is so shakey (gotta control recoil and flick onto heads, but also need smooth aim for peaking corners). Would this be a good pick up?

[@jakeufps]

If the mousepad is your issue, I'd recommend looking into a new one instead of getting a new mouse. Skates can also be worth looking into as they can change the feel in speed and smoothness quite a bit.

[@ssaammii]

Does it have more control than a qck+? I want one of them for CS2

[@jakeufps]

It's slightly faster than a QCK+

do you have stock skates on?

[@dexewu]

Worth to upgrade to this from Endgame MPC450? I like how it lasts forever in terms of quality but for valorant and CS it feels way too fast

[@jakeufps]

I wouldn't exactly call it an upgrade, but if you want a bit more control, it's a great affordable option to try that category out!

[@dexewu]

@@jakeufps considering that mpc costs 20€ now.. ordered this gem tho

What do you think of this one vs the paracontrol v2?

[@jakeufps]

Never tried that one, sorry.

@@jakeufps got both, like the pk one better. using the lamzu Atlantis mini

[@L4_hs]

I used to have AC control+ but it's not as good as it was when I got it, So is it better than the AC ? What about that ikea mouse pad 🤔

[@tt_fit]

The ikea pad v1 is amazing. Best $10 you’ll spend on a pad tbh.

I mean i have a gsr se rouge i was browsing ali saw this and thinking of ordering it

just got this whilst I wait for my Skypad and Hayate Otsu come looking forward to it

[@itzaltping2280]

idk if i should buy this (pk control 1) for 6$ or the (pk control 1 new version) with "upgraded cloth and a design for 12$

[@rosieposie3417]

coated or uncoated ??

[@moshbtw]

Whats the difference between the two? And what does it mean?

[@assohs]

Have been using this for a month now, slowed down significantly. Still very good but mine is inconsistent now. Don't have any problems with any other aspect.

[@jakeufps]

Dang, that's crazy, will have to remember that for future reference. Thanks for letting us know!

[@assohs]

@@jakeufps I really like it still. It’s not muddy or anything but has higher initial friction and stopping power in the area where I play. It’s not so much that it makes it unusable. Not like a logitech pad.

[@Ottoni174]

mine is still very consistent after 2 months, even in a very humid place mine is still pretty damn good, i just wipe it with a microfiber cloth after and before every single use

[@developerrk384]

@@assohsis it good for control? I see a bunch of “reviews” saying it’s balanced between control and fast

[@assohs]

@@developerrk384 Yes exactly its balanced. I play tac fps with it. I have slower pads too but I still prefer this one over all xraypad pads and memoria pro.

[@mohammadbaqer8305]

All things he said is true fore excpet that it tooks some time to be flat on my desk i think because it tooks months to arrive

[@fwabble]

Looks too small - 450mmx450mm MINIMUM and 500mmx500mm top tier. ANYTHING else is USELESS because some people use arm... And EVERY SINGLE cloth mouse pad needs to be flat packed. it's 2023. Not 2009. No, 'price' is a lie.

[@fwabble]

Just a note I do appreciate you address it lays flat but that's 1/20 cloth pads in general... I love your takes, truly, I literally just found your channel shortly ago (an hour....) this is my second video of yours - perfect - great job.

[@fwabble]

Imma still steaming angry at Zowie for the size/packaging, they won't get my money. 2013 I may have looked at them - not in 2023. People need to wake up. It's a £3 piece of cloth shat out of a chinese factory. Ship flat packed, good size and depth options, and add £2 for the privilege... I mean people still think 'Wireless' some how means the price can jump 45% LMFAO............ TWENTY TWENTY THREE NEARLY TWENTY TWENTY FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1K wireless costs liks 30 pence. Wake TF up consumers.

[@jakeufps]

Oh, yeah, I'm doing my ZOWIE video ASAP and will be talking about that topic as well, some companies need to wake up. Also, thank you so much for the compliments! Glad I could entertain and bring some content that people can find useful.
