Xraypad Aqua Control Plus Vs. Equate Plus. Which Mousepad Is Best For You?

[@umbra7335]

Thanks for making this, pretty informative. I do recommend using the terms Static Friction and Dynamic Friction, to explain the pad's friction when the mouse is static and starts moving and while it's already moving (glide). Overall, this was pretty good, you've earned a sub.

[@boardzy]

I will start doing that in my mousepad reviews thank u for supporting

[@mattferreira6382]

I loves how hes has such honesty videos with hes channel.

[@brandonkwhiz]

just copped an aqua control + cause your review. just keep hearing so many good things about this pad.

[@jamesequanimity9963]

you got it now? can you share your thoughts about it? and what mouse are you using it with?

So what's your favourite and why if the Control Plus is 2nd?

[@generalmalaise2930]

how do these pads compare to qck in terms of speed? sick review

[@cesaresp101]

how long has your aqua control + strata's coating lasted

[@ritalin5210]

I have mine since I think 6 months and washed it twice, feels like the first day.

[@kashmandude]

Very late reply but the strata isn’t coated in the traditional sense, it’s ink coated for the color so it’s technically coated but nothing about that will make the glide deteriorate

[@sonnyyyerichsen3531]

I really enjoy your videos, and i see you have a lot of experience with mouspads, myself i am looking for medium to slow pad witch good controll and stopping power, you have any suggestions?

[@boardzy]

the dechanic control. it's a bit on the speed side but provides great control and is insanely cheap

[@sonnyyyerichsen3531]

​@@boardzy Thanks i'll take a look at it ;)

[@anonymousperson2816]

Is it worth buying the equate+ if I have a worn down AC+ strata and artisan zero? They were enough control for stock feet but when I got tiger arc and corepads, became too fast and hard to control for me.

[@christopherbeltran5020]

so the equate plus is slower and has better stopping power

[@boardzy]

yes

[@JustusS2036]

3:06 Does the Thor loose glide? Is it coated or does it just wear down?

[@sauvagev4350]

thats super scuffed . Love your videos

[@gregerysstuntdouble2992]

Would you say the aqua c+ is better than the mpc?

[@lucaspeng641]

I see the xm1 back on the pad 👀

[@boardzy]

Just trying some things

[@Cdustt]

You should review the Aqua Control+ without the design as I have heard that the coating is different than the one with a design

[@ANG3LS21]

Do you have both of them? Hahah I have the black one I didn’t know the texture is different with the design one

[@MrShoniBare]

Black version doesn't have coating bro, Strata does

[@CloudB98]

@@MrShoniBare does the white one?

[@MrShoniBare]

@@CloudB98 Dude just check if it has the "Strata" in the name then it has coating , if it has not then it doesnt have coating.

[@Impecable..]

what if you got the custom version of the aqua control + and put the equate plus design on it? :O

[@boardzy]

I would put something cooler like a sausage

[@Impecable..]

boardzy can you do custom designs on the US website?

[@jjaydenfry]

@boardzy I recently (unintentionally) switched my grip to fingertip grip/claw grip. A few vids ago you said the xm1 would be good for claw, is it still good for fingertip? (If not whats your top 3 fingertip mice.) Thanks.

[@boardzy]

it's not the best for fingertip but I can still do it. for ftip I prefer super small lightweight mice. I'd say ul2, skoll mini, razer viper mini are my top 3

Could you compare Equate Plus's static friction (initial movement) against to Steelseries QcK+ ? I really need to this answer. Aqua Control Plus and Equate Plus both of them have same "micro-amundsen" fabric, if one of them is affecting by temperature other one should does though. At least i think so.

Aaaaah im so sad you said the equate plus feels a bit slower than the ac+, im looking for an xxl extended pad for my desk, and im pretty much in love with my 400*600 ac+ strata rob, but the only thing i might criticize on it is a really slight lack of speed for me. The equate plus was looking so great but if it is a bit slower than the ac+ since i already feel it a bit to slow, aaaaah fack. I might go for the ac+ white then, looks clean and some guys from x ray told me that it was supposed to be the same as a ac+ rob strata Btw i don't know if you still answer to your commentaries, but if you have any other suggestions, id love to get em.
