Vaxee Outset AX Wireless Review - A Tailored Experience

[@FreshReviewsYT]

My bad when I said Model O 4K/8K - That is IN FACT A MODEL D. And yea, I definitely broke my Zaopin when I yeeted it. Unfortunate.

[@theunreliableweathermanhaa3843]

What would you say is the best or top 3 fast movement mousepads??

[@carajean206]

He needs a room tour. It looks like it would be interesting. That dac/amp looks nice also looks out of my budget.

[@fwabble]

Weight is a factor but I have said before once you get down to a reasonable weight and depending on YOUR size and natural size/strength - it will not hamper performance - for me, that's around 65 and under. For big lad like you probably

[@wr_vid5281]

I have tried AX (wired) for the first time just last week and had exactly same feelings. I just took a mouse and it instantly fell into a right place. I have tested numerous ergo shapes and that has never happened to me - I have, almost exclusively, used ambi mice in the long run (Vaxee XE being my favorite for months btw). Shape is king

[@MrThaigamer]

I was looking forward on Lamzu Thorn, but I think I have to reconsider to AX as well. Shame that Asia-Pacific region isn't avaliable yet.

[@windfail]

fr i had to order NP-01S wireless from a relative that is visiting South Korea huhu

[@MrThaigamer]

@@windfail for me I have to wait for our main retailer or someone put it on a second hand sell here. Life is hard on Asia for real lmao

[@Xerpocalypse_]

Vaxee makes fantastic mice. I've never had an issue with their hardware, and I really admire how they approach the engineering of their products. (See also: frimware upgrades for the XE Wireless and NP-01S.) Their commitment to quality for the price stands in such stark contrast to companies who seem to lack that level of focus and ethos. *cough Glorious cough* I recently picked up a Lamzu Thorn, but my Outset AX is one of the few wired mice I still own. It's also the only glossy mouse I own.

[@crazyeyecarl]

I have an EC2-Cw, and I'm thinkin about pickin up the blue AX wireless. I'm worried about the length.

[@sisar7]

Was waiting for a review of this mouse everywhere. Another banger of a video. I really would like to get this mouse especially the pink one

[@bonanzabrandon6877]

I've been using the pulsar xlite v2 since launch, it fits my hand perfectly. I wonder if I would like this mouse.

[@Ausf.D.A.K.]

I agree, the shape of this mouse is the best I've ever used. I use the wired version. This is a 10/10 mouse.

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Outset lovers unite 💪🏽

[@Ausf.D.A.K.]

@@FreshReviewsYT Absolutely. I love it so much that I got one for work as well. All that remains to be seen is how durable it is in time. My old HyperX Pulsefire Surge lasted for 5 years. It still works, but buttons 4 and 5 have developed double-clicking issues.

[@Doggie64]

Woof, Mr. Large-hand. Another fine mouse review Freshy. To bad I'm still stuck on my G502''s. Yeah yeah, i know I have lighter mice on display 4' away from my desk. I'm just to stubborn to open such fine looking products. I still haven''t even opened the custom glass pad I bought to see if it got damaged in shipping....Doh. Luv supporting your content. 🤡

[@AINGIRY]

Whats the sensor placement like on this Fresh I can't seem to tell! I sadly cramped hard with the XE but their 1k is absolutely insane and really didn't want to send it back! I had no idea this was around the corner.

[@bung0o]

I can confirm, my experience with the outset AX is exactly the same

[@calpispop]

Thanks for the review and do hope when I'm able to pick one up that they tighten up that QA. BTW, what's your preferred Vaxee color? I really like the yellow on my XE wireless but I'm torn on what color to go with next.

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Yellow was great. I actually really like this blue. I also like the orange but the orange can get old fast. I feel blue is safe. I did order one in orange tonight though lol

[@paul2609]

I stopped caring about weight when I realised that I still aim the best on my old 85g G305 from 5 years ago despite being heavier and equipped with an outdated sensor than all the other mice I own (Pulsar X2V2, X2H, Viper Mini SE, Viper Pro V2, DAV3, MZ1, Orochi, EC3-CW, GPX, etc), shape matters the most.

[@FeintMotion]

Since 3310 sensors have been indistinguishable from each other when it's a human doing the measuring.

[@WorldKeepsSpinnin]

@@FeintMotionnot true, you can even tell the difference between a 3370 and a 3395, its not huge but its very obviously there.

[@SuperCrazysol]

@@WorldKeepsSpinninyou cant. It is placebo. The only difference come from motion sync which only come in handy in higher refresh rate

[@WorldKeepsSpinnin]

[@kil1337]

wired version also the only wired mouse on my desk. because of reasons.

[@reconax]

I can't find any information regarding the switches / encoder. Tried my best but cant find anything, does anyone know which switches etc. did they use?

[@samk1301]

When does that mousepad release! Whats the name of it? Will they be releasing the black/white as well as the colored pad in your previous video?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

They’re releasing the black and white first. It’s a rizz pad. Collab by nachocustomz and the whale

[@AzNWontonz]

Is there click feel differences if you click really close to the scroll wheel (very right of left click and very left of right click)?

[@impyr3x293]

where did u get this mousepad from? and whats that wooting case?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Keyboard is a polar 65. Pad is a rizz

[@paulkwok9523]

can you review in detail on he1000se?

[@CeceliPS3]

Even though this is the mouse for your hand, could you still recommend Thorn for other reasons? Or is this much better all around? Edit: oof... Nevermind. The build quality ain't looking too good. I'm going with Thorn.

[@FreshReviewsYT]

All depends on your personal preference and grip! Thorn could work well for many

[@NexusArtz]

Sorry if you mentioned it, but what is your hand size? And another question, did you have an embargo when you could publish this review?

[@FreshReviewsYT]

A smidge over 21.5 in length

[@8020Alive]

This or THORN? 🤔

[@FreshReviewsYT]

Both great. For me the shape just smacks too hard on the outset.

[@sEaNoYeAh]

I echo your thoughts on the AX, the shape is stunning, and Vaxee imo have best in class design and engineering. I was an RJN acolyte, but it was listening to the Vaxee designers and then actually trying their products that elevated my understanding of mice and shape. I think they're totally right about pretty much everything. The subtle right side curve is essential to ideal control, there's no point in symmetrical curves at central waist of a mouse. And I do now think grooved triggers makes clicking inconsistent and is just worse; they're completely right that very defined steps in a scroll wheel improves it as an input for playing videogames. And I was fascinated to learn that the EC shape was not designed remotely as a palm grip mouse, and it's shape was actually intended to facilitate a tilted wrist angle to improve useable range of motion, wrist health, and comfort. This used to be mentioned on the Zowie EC product page until the community obsession with grip style took over and they removed it in favour of big icons saying suitable for claw and palm. For years I had wondered why moving to symmetrical mice made my aim feel restrictive even when precise, but I never held any EC derived mouse in a palm grip (also big hands makes this largely impractical anyway), always a relaxed claw, and that yielded the best results. The AX feels like the culmination in everything they've learned so far and is my favourite mouse. I'm currently trying the Lamzu Thorn for an extended period, but I suspect I'll be back to the AX after this is over.

[@WorldKeepsSpinnin]

Exactly, i noticed the same. When i tilt my grip thats when i get that range of motion and pocket in my hand. Everytime i would using a ambi mouse and go back to ergo, i would suck badly, because my hand needed to relearn how to tilt properly. The thing with ergos is how versatile they are, you can semi fingertip tilt grip them to get that range of motion while keeping the supreme consistently and stability ergos provide, you can push your hand more forward to get more stability, etc. Even though my model D was 128MM it still has MORE range of motion then nearly 50% of the ambis i tried. Small ambis too in the range of 116-120mm. Its crazy how advanced these shapes are. I’m planning on getting the vaxee soon. Hope its good

[@WorldKeepsSpinnin]

Also what did you like better, thorn or outset? I have the thorn currently and its ok, but it doesnt have much range of motion.

[@VoltaReviews]

Great point about the weight! 🔥 I don’t mind heavier mice depending on the skates and pad combo I’m using. The only time I do mind is if I’m using a fingertip grip. Nice work 🫡

[@Ricey20]

Agreed with you. Out of all the mice I've tried, I still kept my Outset AX wired handy when I wanted the best ergo mouse. There's just something about the shape that makes everything feel so easy, natural, and consistent. I'm very curious how well their 2k/4k implementation will be but knowing Vaxee it will be solid.

[@xerosphoenix]

I can't choose between the AX and the Thorn. I like both. I will get a AX once the 4K dongle is released though. Still have my glossy AX wired and I refuse to sell it. Vaxee make great stuff

[@Edwardx703]

It seems to me that Vaxee wins the award for Mouse of the Year with their releases this year. I am excited to see what else they will release in the coming years.

Realistically there is no actual difference besides it being wireless compared to the wired version yes? besides the lighter clicks, overall mouse still quite heavy and the only downside to it for me is the price, love the wired version and will probably keep mine as i do not mind the wire.

I have a lamzu - thorn, i kind of like it but i kind of miss some support on the palm betwen my thumb and index finger and feel the need to tense my hand to get a good grip wich is causing pain in my wrist and arm after a short period of fps (cs2) gaming. I'm a guy who grew up with the mx518 and liked the grip of G703 and Steelseries 310 rival but i think those are too big for me now. How is this compared to the Lamzu - Thorn?
