"This is hands down the best mouse on the market. ... This is still my main mouse. I haven't had any reason to switch mice at all. This is literally my favorite mouse no joke. ... The Endgame Gear Op1 8k Purple Frost edition WILL be my main for the foreseeable future. ... when it comes to playing ranked VALORANT or ranked Fortnite I will be using this mouse. ... me saying this is THE BEST mouse I've ever used really holds a lot of weight."
"Has the new PAW3950 sensor. ... The PAW3950 sensor on this mous feels so much better on my 360hz monitor. ... It gets even better as I use higher polling rates. The 8k polling rate is so f*cking smooth. ... Now in all honesty, I won't be using it at 8k unless I'm playing VALORANT. ... I just never knew the difference between a top tier wireless sensor compared to a top tier wired sensor could be so night and day."
"OP1 8K is best symmetrical mouse in terms of performance. ... Wired mouse supremacy. Better latency, lower weight, never have to charge a battery. Gang gang. ... What else is performance other than click and sensor latency? Shape is preference. Performance is objective and OP1 8k beats it in every measurement, I’m pretty sure. ... Yeah there’s a lot more to a mouse than just sensor but OP1 8k has everything beat by a fair margin."

"Out of all the small mice I've tried, the OP1 Shape is the one I've liked the most. ... It doesn't feel like a scaled down version of a larger mouse. ... makes the mouse feel proportionate to its size. ... All my other mouse have been shelved and I haven't even had the urge to give any of them a spin since I got my OP1 8K."
"Shape is one of if not the best for medium / small hand sizes, the hump allows you to comfortably claw grip it while keeping the front more narrow for great use of fingertip adjustments."
"extremely comfortable"

"Wow these side buttons are crisp. ... No post or pre-travel whatsoever. ... This to me is very important because I use my side buttons to edit and reset edits on Fortnite. So I need to be able to really FEEL that click on a moments notice."
"OP1/XM2 8k are the most responsive and objectively fastest mice in the market... with actual innovative stuff."
"the clicks and quality and inmaculate ... miles ahead of the scyrox v8 Imo."

"And the cable is very lightweight and flexible, it feels more like fabric and you practically don't notice it at all with a good dongle."
"also you wont notice the wire, its that good"

"it's just too small for me. ... The OP1 isn't tall enough or wide enough for my grip."
"interfering with my movements, which actually was one of the reasons I returned Endgame Gear OP1 8k"
"I was getting hand cramps with an op18k"

"I perform exactly the same with my OP1we as I do with my op1 8k, maybe even better because no cable. I'm actually going to return my 8k"
"Unless you use super high sens with a bungie, you'll always be able to tell there is a wire. ... I'm returning mine because I like wireless more ... That's only the case if you use high dpi and sensitivity. There's no way the cable doesn't make contact anywhere if you play games at a low sens ... you're fooling yourself if you say you can't feel the cable. And with 60cm 360 it's virtually impossible to not have the cable touching the desk, you need some slack to turn that much ... Having a cable would affect performance more than this click latency ... The wire is perceptible and may make you worse"
"if you do not mind it being wired"

"Super disappointed with the switches. ... They are pretty stiff for nowadays standards, much stiffer than the Zowie U2 for example which are in the middle range. ... To me this is the biggest downside of the mouse for me. ... Quite unfortunate that’s the lightest switches Endgame offers ... Light compared to what? Compared to the last 20 mice I got over the last 3 years they are not falling under the light category at all to me, at least for mechanical switches. ... An example of a light and spammable switch would be the Vaxee XE for example ... That’s exactly how I like my clicks, the less actuation force is needed, the better"
"I found the side buttons tired out my thumb really fast and returned it."
"it seems to miss clicks even when browsing."

"Annoyed that my pc (5800x3d 6800xt 32gb ram) can can ’t handle anything over 2k polling so I feel like I should’ve gone with the OP1 or OP1we ... Anything higher than 2000 polling gives massive stuttering ... Believe me, I’ve spent days trying tips and tricks posted all over Reddit. For some reason, nothing fixes the issue."
