[@ShortCircuit]

EDIT Aug 15: We watched through all the raw footage from this shoot and it does appear that the protective plastic film WAS indeed still on the feet when David gave his initial impressions of the glide feel. We retried it after the fact and their PTFE feet do glide nicely (similar to a G Pro X Superlight with the extra PTFE cover installed in very rudimentary side by side testing). We've cut out the section of video regarding the glide issues as to not misrepresent the mouse. *We deeply regret allowing this error to happen, and will be implementing process changes so similar issues are avoided in the future. Importantly, we apologize to for getting it wrong in the video, and we apologize for how we handled the communications that followed. We made mistakes during the investigation of the issue, and even made mistakes in our previous pinned comment. The video will remain up since the glide feel was not a significant contributor to David's conclusion about the mouse, but that shouldn't be taken as an indication that we're complacent. We will do better next time.* Finally - and this doesn't reduce any culpability on our part - we do believe users of this product would benefit from the skate film being more visible so no customers make the same mistake as us. Here's a photo of what the Pwnage Stormbreaker looks like with the plastic still on the feet: imgur.com/a/k0o5wSH And a Logitech G Pro X Superlight with full cover plastic on the entire bottom of the mouse: imgur.com/a/MV22k8A Thank you for your grace while we improve. -JS

The pad thing is a big mess up. I am the type of person that would spend that kind of money on a mouse and I was looking for a new mouse when I saw this video for the first time. The mention of poor pad performance kept me from buying it. I can't believe LMG forgot to take off the pad protection, regardless of the manufacturer not including a pull tab. I made that mistake once, then I stopped for 2 seconds to check for pad protection, and I found it. That company lost my sale to LMGs error. Sorry Pwnage. Please follow the advice of your employees' candid videos you did awhile back. Take the time to test and reflect on your results to find outliers.

[@Steamrick]

As someone who owns both the Pwnage Stormbreaker and the Logitech G Pro X Superlight: The Stormbreaker glides easier and is easier to hold in hand when the grip tape is applied. Without the grip tape, I used more grip strength than I wanted to hold the mouse because the magnesium is so slippery - this being regardless of the holes or if they'd done with a smooth design. Also, in the month I've been using it, the grip tape has become less sticky, but shows no indication of becoming gunky. So far, at least.

I thought that LTT was 110% legit. Now I am not so sure anymore. I guess that Money Talks! Good thing that at least this "reviewer" (if we can call him that) didn't missed the box and actually removed the mouse from inside it! How would this review looked like if they would have said... this mouse is not working at all... we can not see any cables, the shape is wrong or how to plug this mouse into a USB port, while trying to click through or use the the box as a mouse. :)) I wouldn't have posted this here if this would have been the only video/review that LTT got wrong. At least the pin comment sorts this out a bit and the edited video helps. But as I said... there are others out there that need fixing. I really hope this will get sorted out... so I can keep all of the 6 channels that I am currently subscribed at. ;-)

To me, LMG is an entertainment company 1st and review channel second. It's always best to look up other reviewers opinions on products (rtings etc) before buying them.

[@BespokeSlipp]

Exactly. If they want to be more review-oriented, spend time triple-checking the products.

Man, Linus gonna have a hissyfit over this one😂

[@sstojsin]

He probably didn't even bother to read the user manual lol After GNs video, trust in the LGM group was reduced to zero.

[@GloomGaiGar]

If a reportedly low friction mouse suddenly has a lot of friction, check the skates before calling it defective or broken. Even if it's not obvious, CHECK. There's your tech tip for the day.

[@nightsgems]

Im sorry, did you say "this will get gunked up and gross" to the solid textured rubber pads which is gonna be easy to wipe, on a mouse FULL of holes, which is gonna be way harder to clean

[@chrisg8339]

Thanks to GN's most recent video on LMG, I will be unsubbing from every LMG channel on youtube. I refuse to support these frauds for another second.

[@da_pawz]

I just did it... At least for now... until they fix their system...

[@Crockdaddy1074]

Downvoting LMG and letting my opinion be heard. Maybe LTT and LMG will improve and slow down a bit or at least take responsibility for accidently damaging others reputation. I'd like to see them fix this.

[@xXSAIMANXx]

Just did the same. And i hope, he takes personal responsibility, everything else wont do. And start listening to your employees!

[@kenwiebe2473]

ha, a little bit of an over reaction wouldn't you say? people like you amaze me, so no one ever is allowed to make a mistake eh? not noticing some plastic on a mouse, clearly means anything they have to say about a monitor must be compolete BS

[@iFishFrogs]

@@kenwiebe2473 make a mistake? or mistakes and not correcting them? Sometimes after much time passed they post and pin a comment after community points their mistake. They should slow down videos and contact producers when LTT's result don't match with claims.

[@rbaleksandar]

Due to recent events regarding the sloppiness at LMG, this video will be forever remembered as "that goofball, who forgot to remove the plastic wrapping underneath the mouse and then went on complaining how it glides". The EDIT provided under this video is hilarious, especially the part "Finally - and this doesn't reduce any culpability on our part - we do believe users of this product would benefit from the skate film being more visible so no customers make the same mistake as us.". LOL

[@YAAMW]

Why is this video still up? His conclusions were based on wrong information and wrong testing. All the tech community shamed you for it. REMOVE IT

[@itznukeey]

Why is this video not taken down?

[@nothingtodo5987]

because they need money. 🤡

[@TheOnlyJuan_]

Do y'all leave the plastic on the CPU cooler and blame the manufacturer for it as well?

[@ezzahhh]

This guy almost makes the Verge's PC builder look like a genius, who tf doesn't remove the plastic film off a new mouse? Did he expect them to give instructions on how to peel film off a mouse. Why is this video still up? It's an embarrassment.

[@slicknick4140]

The instructions clearly state you must have an IQ of atleast 80 to operate the mouse and remove its film 🤣🤣💀💀
