Mionix Naos 5000 Review High Performance Laser Mouse Unboxing & Review Linus Tech Tips

2011-02-23
today I'm gonna be doing a quick unboxing of the me onyx nails 5000 high performance gaming mouse it comes in a fantastic matte black box very minimalistic you basically got what it is what it's called and who makes it and what they're all about light years ahead of the game me onyx net let's see what else is on the packaging here yeah nothing on that side nothing on that side nothing on top nothing on the bottom we got some info on the back though so here's our model overview as well as our technical specifications so let's talk about some of the interesting features of this mouse in the overview here as well as the text box actually let's not do that let's open it up and then we'll talk about that later so it opens from the bottom well when it's sealed not just figures doesn't it guess I'll be needing my trusty unboxing knife the Spyderco knife by the way a lot of people ask me there we are got a little magnet there hold that closed here we go a star has been born so you guys can read the little blurb if you want I'm not gonna read it out loud you can pause the video or don't pause the video here we go let's keep going with the nose so you can see right away that this Mouse includes a feature that the naio is 3200 it does not and that is a removable adjustable weight system so you can see they come in a little container here there's your weights they got a little me onyx logo on them alright we'll have a look at how that works the moment and very minimalistic packaging again you're expected to download the latest drivers off the me onyx website which is what I always encourage you guys to do anyway okay something's got to say for herself in here installation full speed USB Gaming Mouse LED lights will light up and the mouse is ready to use you can customize it by downloading the software and the way tuning system the weights are placed horizontally on both sides next to the sensor for more balanced feeling interesting simply remove the two hatches by tapping the small buttons forward and the warranty is two years don't try and repair your product just contact their support here if you have any issues all right so let's pull up the nails 5000 put that packaging aside for a minute right we're gonna be trying this on the professed 380 here so the first thing I'm gonna do with this products I'm going to have a look at the plug that's a gold-plated very very nice quality USB cable so you can see by the gorgeous sleeving on here as well as the flexibility of the cable that it's using very high quality wires inside so that's a very good thing and the gold-plated here's here's a common misconception gold is not the best conductor that is not why it is used in this application Gold is used because it is soft its malleable so and it's also very corrosion resistant so when you plug it in you'll get it as good a connection as possible every time you won't get necessarily the same kind of connection you would with copper or silver but it'll be more consistent that's why so let's go ahead and plug that into my laptop here and hopefully the muffs will light up I've already installed the drivers in preparation for this unboxing so let's we'll start by just looking at the mouse as a whole I'm actually gonna get my chair I'm tired of standing so it lights up green right off the bat you can see we got a few different lights we've got our dpi and lights here so you can see those go up and down according to whatever dpi setting I'm using we've got a light on the mouse scroll wheel and then I scroll wheel actually okay we've got back and forward buttons which I am using now so it totally changed the page from what I wanted to be looking at we've got obviously the DPI adjuster buttons we've got a left and right click middle click as well as an onyx logo here the ergonomics of this mouse appear to be as far as I can tell so far identical to the nails three 200 which is right here next to it so I'm just gonna sort of double check that before I say for sure yeah those are though those are clearly the same and since I'm such a big fan of the ergonomics of this mouse you have to imagine that I'm a pretty big fan of the ergonomics on this one as well so here's the little things you slide forward - oh yeah really see how ZZ just click up there we go and from there you can put in as many weights as you please nice to open up let's load it up I do like a heavy Mouse and I love ones that come up in weight systems because nobody makes a heavy enough Mouse for me I'm ig9 at work is actually loaded up with as many weights as I can stuff in it and ice I settled for no weights on my Akari at home just because it doesn't have a weight system ok quite fair how these go in here actually mm-hmm maybe there ah there we go so you just got to slide it in just right so you can actually this is cool this is a really neat way of doing the weight system because you can balance the weight towards the back of the mouse you can balance the weight towards the front of the mouse it's quite a light Mouse without the weights but these are actually pretty substantial weights let me just see if they're marked or how much they weigh each but it's it's definitely a noticeable half today they are they're 5 gram weights each I'm gonna actually double check and see if they're all the same for I verify that for you guys yeah this one's 5 grams as well see the next one 5 grams so in total by adding 8 5 gram weights I'm adding 40 grams to the mouse and then I'm gonna go ahead and close that back up what's the left one and see if that goes in you're going go clicks in like that and then here's the right one there you have it okay so now that's got some weight to it so quite a bit heavier than the 3200 now especially if you try to try to lift it up straight off the table all right let's see what else that me onyx has to say about themselves with the narrows 5000 before we keep moving on here tex-mex truly ergonomic design yeah we got that much figured out grip friendly rubber coating love the rubber coating seven buttons seven programmable button errs really focus on this text properly come on come on camera you can do it there we go in game profiles which configurable dpi up to five thousand forty dpi so that may be worth at five thousand name comes from six integrated LEDs adjustable polling rate 128 kilobytes built-in memory large Teflon feet balanced weight tuning system up to forty grams which we figured out already um so this for pretty much aware of compatible of all kinds of surfaces squat surface quality analyzer tool so we're gonna try that before we finish this video here adjustable lift distance that's a cool feature so you can adjust how much lift distance before it stops detecting the surface below it up to 12,000 frames per second with tracking speed of five point one meters per second okay that's fair bit more here and that's pretty much it warranty information which we have already covered okay so let's open up the software now which hopefully works nice driver software they've also got another feature that they just added with this version of the driver which um let me see if I can find a little blurb about it and they asked 5,000 what do they call it so this is in version 1.1 7 and that is angle snapping so when making horizontal it's horizontal or vertical movements you naturally cannot make a straight line so it senses these deviations from what you're trying to do algorithmically and corrects them you can actually adjust how much or how little correction is done not you can extend okay if they've added extended color customization options as well as something about avoiding tracking loss with the squat tool so we haven't actually managed to launch the driver software yet it's good doesn't it oh there it is tidy so there we go we've launched it so sensor performance let's say I want to try I want to try that squat tool first so and a live surface here we go the surface quality analyzer tools a feature that analyzes the surface the mouse just okay pressed analyze service making sure that you okay so move the mouse over the surface area oh okay making sure to cover as much as possible of the surface okay there you have it it is nine out of ten done okay done there it is okay now just for contrast why don't we try analyzing the surface of my ugly horrible blue tablecloth thing okay so let's analyze the surface of this you're going to cover as much of the surface area as possible so it's about a ten second test and it's done oh that is an acceptable surface okay last but not least just for curiosity's sake I want to try a steel series 5l okay done let's try one more time analyzed circus analyzed surface okay move around on the 5l try that out let's see what let's see what my onyx is surface analyzer thinks of the five L analyzing oh oh it does not like the five L one bit interesting interesting okay so let's see very quickly what kind of adjustments we've got in here you can change all your mouse settings you can change your double click and scroll speeds you can change pointer acceleration you can you disable it entirely you got your polling rates here's your sensor performance where you can change dpi settings angle snapping pointer speed lift distance okay as well as you running the surface quality analyzer test you can change your color settings let's have a yellow mouth shall we let's see what happens there you go yellow Mouse Ben now let's have a okay there we go now let's have a peek nose apply BAM nice love it ok macro settings takes a moment to apply those settings so the real macro settings so you can record macros as well as some support and Fussel thank you for
