Darmoshark M2 Review

[@GanDtech]

Darmoshark M3 was the first one of these “weird Chinese brands” I bought from and i was pleasantly surprised by everything. Most importantly the performance was really good, so I’m liking this and the price point of the M2 for what you get. Will pick up if I can eventually!

(I replied this to someone else but wanted to make sure you saw it). Regarding the VXE R1, the R1 Pro is also 4k compatible with the same Nordic MCU as the pro max and same coating. the only difference between the pro and pro max is that the max has kailh switches instead of huanos and a bigger battery (500 vs 250 mAh) which also means it's heavier (53 g vs 48 g). I ordered mine a few days ago for $35 from aliexpress but it runs normally closer to $40. It goes like this: R1 SE and R1 both use a broadcom controller with up to 2k polling with a dongle but the SE has a 3395 SE (modified 3335) sensor while the R1 has a 3395. Those two also don't have any coating. The R1 pro and R1 pro max are as I described above (3395, Nordic MCU, 4k compatible with the only differences being battery size and switch type). I feel like I kind of yapped here but hopefully it helps. If you already knew all this then mb 💀

deadass mouse bro, review the vxe r1 pro max, 4k polling, 53g (r1 pro is at 48g and at 2k polling for 38 dollars) (500mah), ive heard it comes from the same factory that sprime and the sora come from, and get this, its only 53 buckaroos w/ the dongle. can vouch, the coating imo feels like like a gpx 2, glass skates from the x2 fit the r1 (98% since the r1s a bit wider), m2 has a cool colorway but kinda mid imo, great video though mr fresh!

I dont own the gpxs but i do own the vxe r1 pro max with 1k dongle and its a great mouse for the price. coatinf seems to be good not the best but you get good specs,light weight and good build with it. Played apex and val with no probelms at all.

[@nez5732]

@@Mango-xs2tv yup, imo gpx stock coating aint great but ill gladly take the r1 for the budget banger pick.

[@Mango-xs2tv]

@@nez5732 exacly im not paying over 100 dollars for the gpx not a bad mouse just better options. And i was thinking to get a beast x or the new sora v2 both seemed like great mices but i dont think i need the sora as of rn since i got the r1 and i love it, use it as my main.

[@setone28ua]

I have vxe r1 pro, great mouse. Also I had m3s, and it had connection issues, like sometimes felt slower or stuttery. With vxe 0 problems, best mice for the price, and size is better for me

[@frenzyio]

🙏I’m really hoping the sidebuttons hold up, looking forward to try this mouse

[@UpgradeLemonade]

I was waiting on this mouse as a replacement to my FM small. Biggest thing for me is darmo chose such a better spot for the side buttons. Never liked the placement on FM. That said the exposed battery like that make it look so prototype :/

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Yea haha it’s very basic lookin

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Feels great compared to the fm small for me though

[@UpgradeLemonade]

@@FreshReviewsYT good video tho man appreciate the info 🫡

[@mikerzisu9508]

Have you tried the attack shark r3 magnesium? Amazing mouse

[@officialteamroc]

and the small side button is just like the M3s and its actually comfortable for me

[@FreshReviewsYT]

That’s good!!! It grew on me

[@Doggie64]

Woof for the algo! Ya know I'm gonna have to get a cat to prevent more mice from intruding into my place....grrrrr. (wait for it, waaait for it....) "Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats, living together! Mass hysteria!" - Peter Venkman

[@TheAfonsosa]

are you gonna make a full padsmith crucible or just gonna leave it at the roundup? super curious about this pad but theres almost no reviews on it. Also interested in the neptune but that one has at least a few reviews

[@xblur17]

I like this mousepad design, but I really want to try glass. How do you like this compared to the glass pads you've tried recently?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

The crucible is fantastic.

[@relaxmike9149]

hey fresh do you plan on reviewing the Simgot EA500LM?

[@Condred]

Speaking of Darmoshark, what happened to your reviews on the M3/N3?

[@anderslundstrom4388]

Sorry for off topic, but did i read or remember correct that you might be working on a new soundcard/DAC review? i'm interested in the topping dx9 for my DT1990pro but not sure if its wort it over cheap sb G6 (i regret that i didn't get Sennheiser 650 that i have listened to in the past). i listened to an ifi neo idvd but it was lacking in base power and perhaps not the best soundstage for gaming.

[@FreshReviewsYT]

The dx9 is great

[@Squ1d_4k]

IEM Question if you can answer : Dunu Vulkans vs Moondrop Kato , How far apart is the performance in these IEMS and is it worth it to get Vulkan over moondrop or is it only a slight increase over kato ? ( For Counter-Strike 2 )

[@FreshReviewsYT]

It’s been a long time now since I’ve used either IEM. I wouldn’t ever use the kato over the Dunu Vulkan. Me personally.

[@spitfire219]

Can you check the VXE dragonfly r1 pro? Thanks

[@TheReal_FishFins]

I love mine.

[@VeeHausen]

How's your Padsmith going Fresh, I got mine for over a week now (1000x500) and it was very chalky and more of a muddy control feeling. But with the Beast X and Obsidian skates it's much faster. Also I reckon the surface has broken in a little on the side I've been using the mouse most and the muddy feeling has lessen drastically. But with my other mouse, especially with bigger skates, the pad is slow and muddy. Am I missing something here?!?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

My crucible is fast

[@danithebest1305]

If you click with two fingers together, do you get stuck in the mouse's beak?

[@shopzGG]

What did you case swap the boog75 with?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Zoom75

[@shopzGG]

@@FreshReviewsYT such a pretty blue, I wish they had a purple like the wlmouse

[@kibikibikom]

Was wondering why you put truthear zero(blue) above 7hz sonus on the budget wallhack tierlist?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Better depth perception mainly

[@kibikibikom]

@@FreshReviewsYT One more thing, What is your most favorite aftermarket eartips?

[@jsnagn3410]

Is the bottom layout actually perfectly silent for glasspad surface???

[@Bananasucker24]

Would u recomend me getting it instead of the beastx or ulx as its much cheaper?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

All boils down to your shape preferences. My build quality is much better on the beast x tho

[@Bananasucker24]

Is the shape good for 18x10 hands? And what are the problems with the build except for the right button moving a bit​@@FreshReviewsYT

[@tvhx]

THAT GPX IS SICK!

[@officialteamroc]

same shape as the M3s right?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

My fault. I didn’t have an m3s anymore to compare

[@sorryprettygirl3]

In my opinion M3s have higher hump than m2 (I have both of that)

[@B9W4N]

woooo looks cool

[@kevinfong4413]

what is your hand size?

[@dmex_teslabro2565]

Here from UPS!!!!!

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Hahaha yooooo!!!!!!

[@Keemochi420]

Boardzy speaks badly about this. Is it really that bad?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

It’s not great. You basically have to cross your fingers for good build quality. If you get a good build unit it’s not bad

[@tyl3rb-fw6ee]

Literally these companies are just copying each other at this point. Wake me up when real innovation is made in this market

[@FreshReviewsYT]

That’s what I’m saying. The stuff feels pretty good don’t get me wrong. But how many times are we going to buy basically the same thing with a nip and tuck here and nip and tuck there

[@tyl3rb-fw6ee]

@@FreshReviewsYT Exactly. I can’t remember the market ever being this over saturated with mice

[@Mister_B_5]

Yoooo
