I believe the EC2-CW to be good successor of the legendary EC line but the weight prevents me from committing to use this mouse. Nonetheless, if the weight is not a bother to you and the shape is something you do enjoy, then by all means get one.

I liked the context section you provided here. Nice work
Even though your review for this mouse is late, this is one of the best review that I've watched. You nailed it and it is very informative. Thank you! Hope you do more vids like this to help us consumers :D
Glad it's of help!
As always, the goat!
Great video as always 😊❤
You literally made it.
@@its_yifang no, you made the video. You recorded the video nd reviewed the mouse, therefore you made it.
@@DannyMikeCenaWWEWHC Solid work, clean vid!
When you say "they have some concerns about something you said in the video" it makes it sound like you need their approval for your review? That also makes it a little hard to trust a review from you then, no? Or did I misunderstand something?
it could be a sample and he communicate with Zowie. Most People do this do get a Feedback about the Issue's. It doesnt matter if he need to cut something out, its like the world we are living in today :)
I don't know what the issue is either, perhaps I am factually wrong about something I said regarding the monitor and they just want to correct me on a statement in that regard. I won't be changing my opinion on the monitor itself but if there is something factually wrong that I need to re-do, then that will have to happen.
Is it possible to relax claw grip with this mouse? I've mained a gpx for almost 2 years and I want to try this mouse out just to change it up a bit. Would relax claw grip work with this mouse?
I wouldn't recommend this tbh. Look into the Pulsar X2 and X2-H.
i can switch between the roccat kain which is 106g to the dav3 pro which is like half that weight no problem... its just a clear difference for fatigue. i think of it as piccolo wearing weights everyday and then leveling up when he throws them off lol
I'm thinking of buying the ec2-c again just to try the shape again since I don't want to pay $150 for a wireless version with a charging dock. Going to wait for the x2 mini I ordered to arrive first and then decide what mouse I'll try next.
After tried some few new mouse , im going back to Zowie , and trying their new u2 and ec3c
Yeah I feel you on the weight.. I really prefer narrow mice even though I have larger hands.. the za13c as good as it feels to fingertip for me the damn cable is something I can’t stop thinking about. A wider mouse the Vaxee Xe I perform probably just as well with but I can’t stop thinking about the weight.. have you gotten your hands on a x2h yet.. I think it will be like those two mice had a baby. Could be a banger.. the mini version that is
Editor is cooking up the X2-H video!
thx for the video but i have a question. 400 dpi x 2 sens for cs go what's the cm/360 is it 51.95 cm or different cm could you use tape measure test it plz
You can just go online and use a sensitivity calculator to check, which according to them, is 51.95cm/360.
gamingsmart.com/mouse-sensitivity-converter/
Friendly advice, switch to 1600 DPI and 1/4 your sensitivity to reduce latency!
@@its_yifang thank you for your answer , Did you use tape measure cuz maybe different conclusion. Example i have viper mini and i use online mouse sens converter for cs go with 800 dpi x 0.95 sens and conclusion is cm/360 54,68 cm but i measure same settings on the mouse pad with tape measure but conclusion is cm/360 50 cm. i hope i could explain that :( thank you so much for your answer and sorry for so many question..
@@Nakodedi no idea, I don't tape measure stuff, it's irrelevant... Just play
so if razer deathreader is little to big for me will this be better fit ??
Definitely!
is the best mouse for ever and ever
😩
What is you main gaming mouse...
Lamzu THORN right now, but previously X2, XM2we, HTS+ 4K. I am more than likely going to main the X2-H when it comes out tomorrow!
I'm going to be honest with you, I just switched from the GPX2 to the g703 lightspeed. I prefer comfort over lightweight.
Why not get both and don't compromise when pretty much every top mouse has both a better shape and a lighter weight...? This is pretty much the competition and market status now, you don't need to pick between shape and weight, you can have best of both.
11:26 I'm 200% all in with this as well, you reading this right now Zowie? Please please please release the ZA*-CW series...
Based!
Got the XL2566k , would be interesting what is so concerning about your Review :D
I don't know myself either 🤔
@@its_yifang maybe you are not impresssssssssssed enough :D
Stop being so concerned with the monitor!!! This is the mouse review!!! Wait for the monitor review!!!
EDIT : Zowie has cancelled the need for a meeting after doing a fact-check so there is NOTHING to be concerned about!!!
but my monitor can't display pixels fast enough 1!!!111
Unless zowies concerns are to do with factual mistakes I'd just ignore them
Yeah I don't know what it is so we shall find out. My opinion on the monitor won't change regardless!
@@its_yifang ye still even if it doesn't change the overall opinion don't let them remove negative points on the video. Imo, just don't let them have a part in it period
@@yhiz4757 Unfortunately it's not that simple... Anyway, meeting tomorrow and hopefully video out soon!
@@its_yifang oh alr. Haven't really been in the situation myself so you are prob right but good luck!
8msec mouse input latency klick latency vs deathadder v3 pro 8000hz 0.9msec.
No one genuinely cares about a click latency difference between a 1000hz wireless mouse and an 8000hz wired...
My aim is not stable as ec2 with any other mouse so i'll go with wireless ec2. 80 gram works for me xd
I'm gonna be brutally honest and tell you that's just a skill issue 🤣
@@its_yifang I am playing at high level every fps game I played. So don't think so its a skill issue 😄 but you are kind of right I just used to gpx now and my aim stable as ec2 xd
@@huseyincancanel4475 Playing at a high level doesn't mean it isn't a skill issue unfortunately, and I speak from my own experience.
I played/was playing pro in two different titles at the time and still struggled when I first changed to a smaller and lightweight mouse. This was when I moved away from big bricks that fit my 21x12 hands (G502, Rival 600, and EC1). I couldn't get any form of stability.
Don't overestimate your skill level just based on "high rank", and also odnt underestimate your skill level and a human's natural ability to adjust to things fast!
I hope you don't take this offensively, I reckon you can improve even more if you get used to the lighter mice.
I love heavy, Understand that ppl like light, but heavy is nice when you get use to it, gives you a nice flick. But yeah, just payed 2000 swedish kr for it... That's a LOT
Unfortunately heavy just isn't as good from a performance & competitive stand point... You're free to disagree though, but the vast majority will tell you otherwise!
@@its_yifang I've used the Xtrfy m4 for over a year, but it is too light, when I do spray patterns my muscle memory just won't learn as well as with my old EC1-A. The same with flickshots. I like to flick it from my shoulder (not from the wrist or elbow) but with a lighter mouse I overshoot most of times. But just as you pointed out, could be the choice of game. That for most games, a lightweight would be better.
@@its_yifang I play competitive with a Roccat Tyon, no issues, its those small hand guys who prefer a light weight for claw gripping, palm grippers will always go for a heavier mouse
@@yudhistirs hand size has nothing to do with grip and weight preference, I have gigantic hands compared to the average person and use claw grip because no mice can fit palm grip (I used to be a palm gripper).
As you improve in aiming and mouse control, you'll also move away from palm grip because it is inherently disadvantageous from the lack of fine control you can do with it. Lighter weight also allows you to do the same, though I won't say lighter is always better, but the modern 45-55g mice is definitely a gigantic improvement over 70g+ mice.
If you are having problems from lighter weight, the only thing I can say is unlucky skill issue 🤣
Try an Xlite V3 model, they have 3 sizes like the EC here does, but at approximately 55g. It is undisputed king of palm grip ergo on the current market.
Now is 150euro and is still expensive…..
yea but not everyone cares about a 60 gram mouse. some find mice around 70-80 grams more comfortable
Sure, if you're comfortable with it then get it. I only care about performance and weight is a huge contributing factor towards that gameplay so I wouldn't use it.
80g? That’s a brick.
77 😉
@@its_yifang Doesn’t make a difference. That weight would be expected in 2018. So crazy how behind Zowie is for years with like everything they produce.
@@tertozer3543 🥲
'Unboxing process'...honestly how is this even content
Some people want to see the whole thing from start to finish.
this mouse sucks its zowie taxed -_- pros get sponsored and forced to use them to make us buy it... the mouse uses old technology. same plastic from the b series bad scrolling wheel
A bit harsh but at the same time valid points.
Type this comment using a g703 (95g) lightspeed. Weight and sensor are subjective. What matters most is comfort.
@@Chef_PewPew Unfortunately here I will have to disagree entirely, the weight and sensor make a massive difference towards gaming performance. If you were talking from a casual perspective and don't play competitive games then by all means go for comfort, just like office mice with their durability too.
U either buy zowie , or you gonna regret not buying it.
