MY NEW MAIN | Endgame Gear OP1 8K Purple Frost Limited Edition Review

[@prezidenttrump5171]

These reviews lose all luster once you realize they're all being extremely positive and sucking off the company to get free product, and we as the consumer get false information. This mouse is horrible, the build quality is horrible. I'm holding it right now in my hand, everything he said is wrong. The sensor is worse than my Logitech from 2008.

the guy hearted this comment. imagine producing blatant lies with this much effort just for free products at the expense of your "viewers" money. And then hearting the comment highlighting how everything you talked about in your high quality production was a lie. this is pathetic

[@arstd196]

@@OPEK. you are an absolute genius

[@espertix5839]

Exactly! I'm holding mine too and its not that great and looks like any other generic mouse out there. You can tell by the lies, he has been biting his thumb thinking what false information he can give us to get subscribers. The half eaten fingers were the dead giveaway 😂

[@TaidoRainbow6]

"Please don't make a financial decision because of Motion Sync at 8KHz" No jakeu, I'm making a financial decision cause pwetty purple mouse.

Mouse reviewers trying not to say "my new main" challenge: impossible

[@jakeufps]

HAHAHAHAHA, I know, it's fucking hilarious, but I had to since it's not even a joke. OP1 8K has been my main since launch, and this one is replacing it, so it's not even a lie. Still hilarious though.

[@yhiz4757]

@@jakeufps ye tbh even if the shape worked for me the scrollwheel just sorta ruins it for me considering I use it a lot, I really wish the shape worked for me cuz it sounds like the holy grail of mouse shapes for some people XD

I'm so happy that you appreciate that, I really try my very best to be as real as possible. Thanks!

[@JtwasLuck]

Just got mine, the coating and the clicks are absolutely insane. Easily the best I've ever felt.

[@tinychamberz]

i am really impressed by the stock feet, smooth and quiet on glass, good on cloth, just perfect.

[@jR0xas]

Man they really improved my favourite mouse. I had to get this one. Love that they put lighter switches by default as well, much prefer light switches. Half my setup is also purple so that was kinda my main reason to buy it lol.

[@sojiGG]

Looks good, Its rare that a translucence colorway looks this good, looks just as good as the pulsar colorways.

[@jakeufps]

EXACTLY. Many translucent peripherals end up looking a bit cheap or "toy-ish", but both Wooting and Endgame Gear nailed the premium look and feel.

[@sharkosaurfps]

the most jakeu mouse in existence

[@jakeufps]

This.

Danke für die ständig hochwertigen reviews, feiere diese schon lange 🙏🫶

Already sold out in the time it took me to watch this video. Should’ve just bought it when I looked at the listing without seeing a review 😭😂 Update: I refreshed the page and I was able to get one!

[@celery0]

my regular op1 8k arrived after processing for like a month a few days ago ;-; purple looks so much better though

[@jgalYT]

Endgame Gear will always be in my top mice all time, enticed to get it based solely on that fact

[@jgalYT]

Update: ordered one

[@jakeufps]

I hard agree, they're certainly one of the brands in the enthusiast scene doing the most.

[@Katze822228]

Razer advertised their version of the 3950 to have better "Resolution Accuracy" than their 3395. Back then I made the assumption it had better motion accuracy but who knows what they mean by that. It could have been just marketing speak for having less DPI diviation.

[@mamatbasreng-i5i]

hi jakeu! can u make best settings configuration for op1 8k? ty!

[@sethviews]

Second this!

[@jakeufps]

1. Make sure you're on the latest firmware 2. Your preferred DPI (I recommend 1600/3200 for higher polling rates) 3. Angle Snapping Off 4. Ripple Control Off 5. Motion Sync Off 6. Highest Polling Rate your PC can handle without stutters (go for the highest available setting, do large quick swipes in game and see if you notice any stutters, go down a step if you notice any and repeat the process) - I personally go for 2K to make sure I have a super well saturated signal without any stutters in any of my preferred games. 7. Slamclick Filter On 8. GX Safe Mode for M1/M2

[@Zervesta_]

@@jakeufps any reason for turning motion sync off, especially with the new purple frost?

[@mariokart439]

[@ThePesident]

[@jakeufps]

It'll more than likely never be available for purchase, I'm sorry.

[@jakeufps]

PURPLE XM2 8K WHEN

[@guillermorestrepo2658]

sir , Which switch is lighter, the op18k old version or the purple version??

[@jakeufps]

purple version, but you can get switch packs and change them yourself without having to solder

[@doughcs]

It looks so good.. might be time to try the OP1

[@saulsadip]

Genuinely want to get this mouse but the size worries me. I use a g pro x 2 and I kind of switch between fingertip and claw grip randomly so this mouse being so tiny in comparison seems crazy to me.

[@jakeufps]

definitely not the safest mouse out there in terms of size, I can highly recommend printing test shapes or getting them printed by a friend to check out before buying!

[@niprehsr]

i‘m sticking to my white op1 8k since i got it like 1/2months before the purple came out, and have barely used it yet so it’s basically new :3

[@ZERO零_J]

Hi jakeu! Which mouse should I buy first? The Razer Viper V3 Pro or this E.G.G. OP1 8K?

[@jakeufps]

Whatever shape you think would suit you better!

[@Fatal_Error_Gaming]

Nice man. Got mine in earlier this week. Now I will add that if you plug this mouse in expecting the software to just connect from the og OP1 8K, it wouldn't. I had to actually add the other software control to it. Then it was all good. Also it has a glass setting as well in the software. Havent used it yet. But will try it soon.

[@Miffy564]

Yo jakeu where did you buy your desk?

[@TrixSquid]

being in the peripheral space is hard, ive been wanting an op18k for a while now but ive been able to hold off after spending too much money on mice (and mousepads). Now with this i feel like im missing out if im not buying since it's limited edition. i almost instantly ordered, but held off on the checkout screen, i need to start holding myself accountable lmao.

[@jakeufps]

The FOMO effect definitely is like a plague almost, therefore I try my best to explain who should not buy it in the "My Opinion / Conclusion" sections of my reviews. Stay strong! Also, I was told there were enough units, so it's not super duper rare.

[@TrixSquid]

@@jakeufps great, il probably end up buying one aftermarket then at some point.

How does this mouse feel in the hand/palm compared to the Lamzu Maya? Also that purple is beautiful

[@xstupidg]

It's more narrow and lower with a back hump, Maya is more of a suit everyone mouse since it's a gpx-like mouse but op1 is great for a small-medium size hands players that use claw grip, you can't really palm grip it

[@gnshp8167]

I have the OP1we which probably has the worst switches i used in until now imo, i ordered this mouse now and hope that the wired one feels better.

Never. op1w would only go up to 4k (and nobody knows when it comes out)

[@CintrixIRL]

Curious if this OP1 8K makes your sens feel slower when it is set at 8k in game? I have the regular OP1 8k and when I have set at 8k, in cs2 any movement that I make feels like my sens is almost 0.5 lower than it actually is. As soon as I switch it back to 4k it goes back to normal. If you've had this issue then how can you fix it?

[@xstupidg]

cs2 doesn't support 8k properly, commenter on reddit says "Up to 4k polling rate it seems to work fine without any issues. But for 8k, there seems to be a noticeable issue where my mouse movements are not one to one"

Why no ring skates around the sensor?

"1:17 whole handbook if you are that stupid." That's really rude from you to say that and assume that most people are stupid if they use the manufacturing guidance to do something properly.
