Title: Need help remembering
Post by: uJalled on Tue, 01 January 2013, 14:05:39
Man, I remember a few months ago, I found this sweet gaming mouse that was still in development, and I was planning on getting one later, but now I can't remember the name of the company or their product. Only thing I remember was that the mouse had a phoenix bird on it. Any ideas to what it could be?

I've seen the name Feenix around. Might that help?

Yeah It's probably one of the mice from here: http://www.feenixcollection.com/ (http://www.feenixcollection.com/)
I haven't been following this companies products for a while, so I'm not sure which ones would be in production or not. Hope that helps, and sorry if it didn't!

Those look really uncomfortable.

It looks like the FEENIX Vitesse is in production actually.

Can be verified here: http://www.feenixcollection.com/vitesse.html

I couldn't find any pictures of the actual mouse. But the other mouse they have, the Nascita, looks similar to the Logitech G9X.

G9X:

I've used the G9X before, and it isn't a bad mouse, just to bulky for my preference. Instead I prefer the Logitech G500, which is by far the best mouse I have ever used, at least for gaming.
My friend owned a Nascita a while back, and although I never got a chance to try it, he said he liked the feel of it.


Those look really uncomfortable.
And yes, it does look like the grip would cause some awkward strain on the hand.

Doubt it's the Feenix mouse, there was recently another thread regarding it where someone linked this (http://hitbox.en.alibaba.com/product/422577316-212677221/Laser_gaming_mouse_6000_DPI.html), so the Nascita seems to just be a rebranded OEM mouse rather than something made by Feenix.
