Title: Did anyone else experience this with their Feenix Nascita?
Post by: Fragil1ty on Wed, 11 February 2015, 20:38:48

Images below regarding the issues that I was facing back in October. Essentially, I had only had the mouse 7 months when I had to go ahead and get a new one, I thought this was extremely weird as the mouse is a very high value mouse and the production value from Feenix is usually absolutely amazing, so I was a little annoyed when this happened, it doesn't look like much, but it renders the mouse unusable due to the fact that because the plastic coating has wore away, your fingers slip a lot more and it's just not as comfortable for gaming.

I'm just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and whether or not it is a common problem/occurrence with this mouse?

All rubber coatings wear away. It's happened to my Logitech G9 and Cyborg RAT3.

That said, perhaps you can order one of these to replace it: http://www.amazon.com/Sharkoon-DarkGlider-Gaming-Laser-000SKDGM/dp/B009K85TJ0
