Title: Ducky Mouse?
Post by: Seranite on Tue, 12 May 2015, 12:47:54
Hey all, just curious to know if anyone is aware of Ducky Channel possibly revealing a new mouse? At least that's what it looks like to me.

Here it is to see for yourself: Link (https://www.facebook.com/117547488320354/photos/a.117548801653556.22498.117547488320354/861655103909585/?type=1)

If Ducky actually reveals a mouse under there, would you give it a try?

I wonder what it would look like...

It's certainly a strange shape for a keyboard :))

I doubt I will buy assuming it is a mouse, I'm yet to buy one without testing it first as a mouse must be comfortable and there are no local shops to try it at.

True, unfortunately I live in a place where there's no way to test anything! So if it looks good to me, good shape/specs/reviews etc. I may give it a try. My current mouse needs replacing.

Doesn't seem unlikely considering they have a mousepad. Hoping for something for small :D

Appreciate the feedback guys.
It should be even closer to the real thing now.

Hey, surprisingly a good looking mouse. I like a mouse shaped like that, actually.

LOLLLLL the drawings are amazing !!!

Oh and they also confirmed it come with side button, so I'm assuming it's similar layout as Ninox Aurora / Logitech G302 / G303.

Now I'm curious about size and sensor.  :D

Haha, thanks  ;)

So those long things are side buttons? Reminds me of IE 1.1 mice.
That's exactly what I thought too, it looks like the G303/ G3-esque shapes which is great.
Let's just wait and see... lol.

How much you wanna bet it's rounded/bubbly looking and has a bunch on unnecessary gaudy LED's? Probably a giant ugly logo on it too I'll bet.

Red LED. I bet you can customize it. It's rather ugly looking though imo.

On a side note, I need a big mousepad like that.

It looks pretty atrocious to be honest. I know I have LEDs on stuff I have right now but I'm realllly trying to move away from that.

AWWW thanks ;D

I definitely recommend the RipperXXL. I bought mine about a year or two (?) ago and it's still holding up to every day use. Even better is that since I bought mine they seemed to have upgraded the material that it's made of (a friend got one about a year after me). The newer pad feels even more smooth and easy to clean than mine.

I don't agree with red accents, especially when the mouse has rgb LEDs.

I'd still buy it

Surely Ducky will have multiple accent colors available when it's ready for sale; however, I probably still won't buy it either way.
