Pulsar Feinmann F01

[pzogel]

Being Pulsar's first mouse released under the Feinmann sub-brand, the right-handed ergonomic F01 brings back the original Xlite shape, wrapped into a 46 g magnesium alloy package. Pulsar's latest XS-1 sensor is used alongside Kailh optical main button switches, and 8000 Hz polling is supported in wireless operation.

Considering that this is a medium-largeish ergo, the cutouts seem like they would be rather uncomfortable for palm grip. Should be fine for claw, depending. Still, now that we have quite a lot of mice that are light as hell without resorting to holes this seems… a bit backwards? Not sure if the sub-10 grams shaved off would be worth it versus something like the Thorn, which feels like a close enough comparison.

The F01 retails for $179.95, and for that kind of money, one would rightfully expect virtual perfection, yet the F01 doesn't deliver.

^^THIS^^

Too many holes, literally & functionally, for that price...

Nope not doin that, regardless of brand or the brains behind it

I don't like mice with holes.

And I feel that the price is a little too high for most people.

But really enjoying the Crazylight and use the Xlite V3 as my daily mouse.

So.... anyone want to tell Pulsar this mouse is illegal to sell in EU due to failing the USB-C common charger law?

 

[de.das.dude]

i guess i am one of those rare people who likes a little bit of heft in their mouse. most mice nowadays are half naked.

The alloy can resist corrosion from sweat?

Sorry but no.
A $180 mouse is a total fail if it has any single one of the following, and this one has all three:

• Polling instability
• Sensor malfunctions
• Variable click latency

Just no, no, no. There are other mice on the market that aren't fundamentally broken, don't waste your money on garbage that's broken out of the box.

No USB-C for charging on the mouse. Those useless plastics on the pcb should have been used for a proper mouse surface without holes. There are no weight savings.

There is also additional manufacturing costs as there have to be made two devices. The charging circuit can not be that big and heavy.

Technically a total fail from just the pictures. Last page also implies the device is a fail on the purpose of a generic mouse.

That name of the mouse, give me as someone who knows a bit of German, the shivers

Paint it yellow and you've got swiss cheese. That things got better airflow than my entire PC case.

 

[zenlessyank]

That thing should be $7.99 at Dollar General. Where is the rest of it? Did a mouse gnaw on it? How much nastiness is going to build up inside it after a year or two? What's that smell?

u can buy a semi-radio mouse with Pixart PAW3395 and Optical Omrons only for $40, or less. Why this thing costs so much??? For a dock?

I've been using one for the last 3 months. I haven't experienced the issues the tester has so I won't comment on performance, but I can comment on the shape and that it has been one of the more comfortable mice I've used with my arthritic hands and the weight is absolutely amazing.

My only annoyance is the mouse is a bit slippy and really requires a set of Supergrips which didn't come in the box. Furthermore, my experience with Pulsar precut grips is they could be a bit more precise in what they they cover.

For those who worry about the large holes snagging, you'd have to have pretty loose hand skin for it to be a concern.
