I asked you a few days ago on Instagram what wrist rest you were using in a post and I instantly fell in love with them!

Iove your vids!
Damn the first time Iâve seen some one use those kills streaks.also, for someone thatâs old enough to be my dad has so skill in call of duty keep up the good work.

Your reviews are so amazing dude! I can't explain! The value from your information unmatched so far! Thank you for what you do! Anyone buying a wrist rest should watch this video before they make a decision. The depth of your review is very visible!
Must underrated channel on the internet, but I am sure not for long. Amazing videos, amazing content, and amazing personality and presentation. I am 43, a gamer and love the learning experience you provide. Thank you, and I am sure to see you at a million viewers soon!
Amazingly detailed review, glad I found your channel!
Felt like you tried to cram as much info in as possible within the video time rather than what other creators do with padding it out with empty content, very much appreciated!
Good stuff mate. This is handy seeing as Iâve been putting together a whole new set up on my wishlist to buy in the coming months
Man I just love the production value of these videos. Especially the b-roll. Keep up the good work manđđŒ
I cannot stress how helpful your channel has been for someone making the switch to PC
I didn't think I would watch this all but it was very interesting and very informative of what to look out for. Thanks for the great video brian!
I purchased the Wooting wrist rest after watching this video and it arrived yesterday. Have to say that I'm impressed with the quality and happy with my purchase. Thanks again đ
Nice reviews dude. I like how you actually went over what you think about cleaning them too.
I recently go my 1st wrist rest and it's the Glorious. I love it, I was getting aches in my hands and wrist area when typing, this rest has cleared that. I know he said to not put the weight of my hands on it too much but I find for me it makes everything just better and I actually feel like I've increased my typing speed a little too. I'm on a TKL so I've not found myself resting on the logo either so no issue there and so far it's keeping clean pretty well. Awesome video as always.
thank you for this video dude. as somebody that works from home and also is a PC gamer heading towards mid to late thirties, i've developed "mouse elbow". Having a video like this to help decide the options out there is a god send. wish more people would make this sort of content. thank you :D have a sub!
Where have I been all this time? You have moved yourself to my top 5 favourite CZcamsrs. AMAZING job, keep it up!
Another fine video @badseedtech. That Auramech wrist rest is straight Fire!
Auramech has been killing it, he said in today's stream no more Groub Buys which is awesome he said he wants to have stuff in stock for the Purple Storm, and Blood mousepad, also said there will be a limited drop soon
Hands down the best tech-tuber that I can vouch for time and time again! *Keepinâ it real my G*
Huge fan of this episode! Glad to see some focus on wrist rests!
Awesome round up man, favourite tech tuber by far.
you just got that style
Nice Chanel. You have much more real use insight and not just the whatâs sold at Buy Buy selection of products reviewed. Big plus for a good sense of humor too!
i think you deserve may more subscribers . You're one of the best at gear reviews man keep up the solid work !
Man your production value is so insane and the b-roll clips always have me dying laughing. Loved this vid an actually have me looking at some wrist rest currently, keep up the great work man
Badseed Tech is coming up as one of the best smaller tech channels. Love your video color aesthetic and review style.
Perfect timing I just started looking around for a wrist wrest! As always great videos
The stuff you said about proper ergonomics and taking care of yourself early is such good advice. I always use a wrist rest (Glorious PCGR 13mm Stealth) with my keyboard. The same sort of general advice applies to gaming mice too. I learnt the hard way how important it is to use a mouse that is comfortable for your hand size and grip if you do a lot of gaming.
Last year when the Model O came out I bought it as my first ultralight mouse. It was also my first ambidextrous mouse, with my previous mains being a Rival 600, G403 and Mamba Wireless. The shape felt really awkward to me at first but the light weight was fantastic. However using it for more than 30 mins would start to strain my hand, and eventually lead to my hand feeling sore.
I asked some folks online if it was just a matter of getting used to a grip I wasn't used to, and I was told that after about a month I would adapt to it and the strain would disappear. Well, it didn't. Instead of listening to my body, I kept using it because the light weight made it easy to hit flick shots and I felt like that gave me an advantage. Then one day I jumped on my PC to play some Titanfall 2 and my wrist started hurting straight away.
It's been almost a year since then and I'm still feeling the affects of it even though I'm back to using ergo mice (thankfully lightweight ergos are a thing now). No, it's not carpal tunnel or anything like that, but I now have to limit my play time each day until I fully recover. So if you're reading this and you're finding yourself feeling sore when gaming or afterward, don't do what I did. Do whatever you need to do to get your setup comfortable and suitable for YOU. Look after yourself, listen to your body. Don't use a specific set of peripherals just because your favorite streamer does, we are all different. Don't trade strain/pain for a small advantage or aesthetics. A comfortable wrist rest and a suitable mouse will help you avoid excessive strain and you'll be able to play for longer and improve more as a result.
Great video Brian, I'd really like to see more of this kind of stuff on the channel in the future. :)
Just got the blood thirsty wrist rest and matching desk mat. Thanks for the vid !
I promise every video you upload comes up when I'm thinking about buying something and you make a video about that exact product or something similar. I feel like your an alien.
Thank you for the audio recommendations in the comments of the last video as well.
Lol glad I can help man!
@BadSeed Tech Man I am dying at the little gotcha blurbs you put into this video. Great info on a subject that I never really considered. DONT ever change SIR
Hands down the best B roll, production quality, and hella valuable information. And Brian's got jokes! đ€Ł
Yesss thank you for covering this.
Ergonomics are so overlooked. It doesn't help that most desks aren't built with ergonomics in mind.
Currently using an older tkl foam wrist rest, but it looks crazyyy for 60%.
Really wish the Wooting one came in 60%
ur videos are so consistently good
I love how your videos are relevant for so long
oh my god last time I was on ur channel u had 70k you've grown so much! congrats bro!
Love the vid, busted me up pretty good. I bought a Glorious after I notice I was already feeling pain while only owning a pc for 2 weeks. All those years of skating and falling on my wrist caught up (I'm 28). I was using my mouse box til it got delivered haha
Thanks for all the videos! I legit watched your Ducky One 2 Mini videos like 4 times each before picking up a Frozen Llama Mecha Mini edition!
Came at a perfect time was thinking about getting one.
Marklee Gran same!
Same man
Same that's crazy
Saaaaaame
Superk50 same but I got exams đ
what desk mat is that, im looking for one kind of like that to go with my white and orange set up on my custom board
same they look like novel key desk mats but I've never seen anything like that drop before
opening youtube badseedtech video just went live i am happy :D
I've switched over to the hyper x wrist rest with cooling gel and it might be my favorite wrist rest to date. A lot of the other ones I've used have made my hands really sweaty but with this one I've never had that issue.
is it easy to clean? i really wanted that wooting one cause its simply a wipe and its clean but the price + shipping was crazy being in the UK.
I just bought a tkl from glorious! The stealth edition specifically. It works AWESOMELY with my Razer Huntsmen tkl, it feels great to rest my hands on.
Nice, suggestions dude. Quick Suggestion for next video, since many people are working from home, would be able to do like chair guide also maybe. Or maybe like armrest cushions for those bad "gaming" chairs
I'm building a custom keyboard and was wanting a sick wrist rest! This WOOTING WRIST RESTS will be a great addition to my setup
I created mechanical wrist rest. It is something new. Hand feels like in air. For so many years gaming I have a problem with my left hand. It is a real problem. So now I have best wrist rest that really work!
this was the episode I was looking forward to.
Iâm big and tall at 6 foot 7. So any video about improving desk ergonomics while gaming is essential for me. Great video as always! Also! Any recommendations for desk chairs for super tall guys would be appreciated! đ
Ooooh that broll and the different color schemes. Tasty! đđ»
Literally exactly what I was looking for damn
30 year old gamer here. I would have laughed at the idea of a wrist rest when I was 20-25, but over the past couple of years I've really started to appreciate them for longer gaming/productivity sessions.
Good video! I learned a lot and I need to try some of these! Thanks!
I'm loving this passive-aggressive review. đ€Ł Awesome video as always, brother.
i run the glorious stealth compact 13mm and love it . Great video man .
The glorious wooden rest in Onyx seems to have paint issues. My paint started coming off within a week of getting it. For cleaning cloth rests, automotive interior cleaner and a microfiber cloth works wonders with to lift the dead cells and junk from the cloth.
Awesome video! I was wondering what size of a wrist rest should I get for my 65% keyboard and you answered my question. 4:34
I was just looking for a wrist rest. This video could not come at a better time!
I've rocked a Ducky full size leather rest and have loved it, now the wife uses it w/ the fullsize Ducky she claimed from me. I do have to say it's worth the extra to go with a wooden rest from Glorious as that has been my daily driver for my wrists for the past few years when they launched them. I do plan on eventually getting a Aura Mech or a Moonkey Koi rest just due to the fact that they are stunning and really set a desk setup off.
I recently started KB+M gaming (20+ years as console gamer), and you sir, have been such a great source of info for my purchasing research. I love that you even covered this aspect of it. Thank you! Btw, I saw Razer actually has a compact wrist rest now for 60%. Have you gotten a chance to try it out?
Just got a new keyboard n been looking for a wrist rest for week now been looking for that that looks good thx so much
6:52 are you supposed to spank another guy with the wrist rest?
If you get the chance go for it
I'm old and game, have been using wrist rests for many years, when you get to your late 40s you need a little help
The Wooting rest looks like a good upgrade for my aging Grifiti rest
thank you for this vid i was looking for a wrist rest and got a 65% keyboard so this really helps
Fantastic video, subbed!
Been here since about 100k idk how you dont have at least 2 to 3 mil subs, your the best tech, and all things alike youtuber
just picked up the razer cooling gel one two weeks ago and itâs been amazing i bought it to replace the terrible wrist rest on the corsair k95 platinum
Huge fan of your review, very insightful, thanks :)
dude you deserve +2m subs your vids are clean and contents are great
Because I do a lot of coding and gaming I found that typing feels so much better with a rest than without one. I use the Glorious Stealth TKL btw. Great review as always and the jokes were on point in this one. đ
OMG that red one in the b-roll was đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„
TY i have wrist problems and this helped me
Okay so, first, thank you for making this video. I have multiple wrist injuries (on both hands) due to excessive high APM gaming on controllers. I'm nearing 30 and I developed De Quervain's tenosynovitis with minor carpal & cubital tunnel syndromes on both hands. Also I'm a software engineer so typing is basically how I get my income. Using a proper keyboard (I'm running X-bows) basically saved my hands in terms of typing, but can't forget that a wrist rest is really really important.
I tend to prefer silicone ones btw (again, running X-bows's wrist rest, recommended it to friends for completely other keyboards and they love it, you should check it out) as they are easy to clean and they don't give in, causing a bad wrist orientation. Kinda a mix between comfortable and super firm.
Cheers!
my mecha mini is about to arrive
chosen based off of your recommendation
thanks for the great vids :)
You will love it! I do.
This video was REALLY informative đČ. Thank you
got me hype to get my Aura gear now, i picked up the Bloodthirsty lineup.. How would you compare his pads to say an XRaypad Thor?
Dope reveiw,,I got that Model D the pad and got that Glorious wrist and I love it
Honestly couldn't have timed this better, I've been thinking of getting one cause
S/O to the best in the industry! Appreciate the review brotha
Bailey Tenkeyless is also worth a mention. Leather made.
Thank you for this video man, seriously.
This helped alot on what to possible get. Also where is the review on that Dygmate split keyboard I saw there you have in this video?
You should never rest your wrist on anything.
First, the weight of the arm will then press on your traverse carpal ligament.
Second, it encourages ulnar and radial deviation of the wrist (left and right twists).
Third,it robs you of the proper alignment of the wrist and fourth it robs you of the power of the arm.
There is no static motion the wrist should be held in because it is a fulcrum. Its proper alignment simply transfers the power of the arm into the finger tips or device.
Just like your ankles are flexible, what position should they be in when you walk? Well, they take on several positions and are never static.
They are used to transfer the weight of your body into the ground.
If you were to walk on the outside or inside of your foot, they would begin to ache because your weight is now going into the foot and not the ground.
Likewise, the power of the arm must pass through the wrist, through the fingers and into the device you are using.
Isolate or ârestâ any part of your body and all your gravitational force will stop in that body part then youâll go see a doctor who tells you you have a ârepetitive stress injuryâ but really youâll have an injury because you move incorrectly.
What is that 65% keyboard with the blue caps??
i was literally looking for a video like this. you answered the prayers lol
I just bought the 3m ones on amazon and they have lasted me a long time and are still comfy
You are real af! Good work!
I'd love to see you do a desk ergonomics video, lots of people overlook how much it can really help in terms of comfort and strain
Working on a lot of ergo topics rn - lots of content to come
This video is pure art...
U GIVE THE BEST REVIEWS IN THE CZcams TECH TOPIC
I use 2 of HyperXâs wrist rests, for both mouse & keyboard. They are great & they have a cooling effect, they help me a lot when using my PC for longer periods of time đ you didnât mentioned them? But great video, itâs a actually an important part of this. Didnât thought of it, first a few months ago. Should have used it for years now. Also, Iâm always moving my arms, also the mouse - but it helps resting my arm on an wrist rest while using the mouse. Iâm not locking my arm/hand in position, but I just relax much more while using the mouse beside keyboard.
HyperX is a very good wrist rest and I have 2 as well and use them for kb and mouse. The one for my mouse I use just my palm as I donât really move my arm all too much for gaming. HyperX needed to be in the video for sure.
Your content is damn good and ive picked up multiple items from your videos
If people are looking for a cheap flat style wrist rest. Look up "coolermaster Wrist rest" it's pretty cheap and a great starter one. Hope this helps and always awesome vids Brian.
6:58 LOLL you really don't like that packaging đđ
something that its under looked by a lot of gamers for sure!
"You're ready?? Let's goooooooooo" BadSeed Tech brother, you make me want to smoke just to have your cool voice.
It's Effin awesome x'D best easiest intro ever. And it works
yup. i tried using a 60% pad for a 60% keyboard. returned it in a couple days and got a larger one. Always go bigger is good advice. lol
I bought the Glorious Wooden Keyboard Wrist Rest a few moths back. It stays cool, is easy to clean and is a perfect fit for the Ducky SF. If you take away one thing from this video, listen to the importance of ergonomics. I'm 55 and I know soft tissue injuries are for life. Game now and game forever. Proper positioning of chairs, desks and wrists rests are the key to longevity.
How about a chair and desk review Brian?
Sick song selection again!
