Smoother than a baby’s bottom – really.
This mouse pad is the creme de la creme of gear for uber gamers. It's the equivalent of having Coco Pops for breakfast every morning - indeed, you may find yourself sugar rushing after sliding your equally high-end mouse over its slick surface just once.
Yes, it costs the equivalent of four months' subscription to WoW. Or take that $64 to Builders' Warehouse and have them cut you a rectangle of metal in the exact same dimensions of this Steelseries SX, and spend the change buying yourself a copy of Alone in the Dark.
Or - you could be a true blue gaming guru and own two of these babies. One chained to your rig at home and the other traveling with your Dell XPS1730. The price either bothers you, or it doesn't. There are no in-betweens here.
But it's not classy to talk about money. Let's talk about glide. Picture an Olympic gold medalist skater sliding across a freshly Zamboni'ed ice rink, coated in Astroglide. There is almost zero friction. And there is no other mouse pad that has come under our scrutiny that compares. Not even close.
The fiber polished aluminum has been coated in an anodized oxide treatment. The SX is slightly bigger than A4, which is heaven for gamers who find their pointer creeping off the ledge of those cheap, bendy mats that they got for free with their new graphics card. Speaking of which - this mouse pad is more rigid than the statue of Abraham Lincoln in Washington. Not even the Undertaker of WWE fame could bend this baby in half. The base is padded with a rubber mat that'll make sure you're going nowhere when you're in a frenzy of click-click.
The SX is an investment, with incredible durability.
