Razer Naga Hex LoL Edition Unboxing

2013-04-02
this video is brought to you by our trusted graphics partner Nvidia hahaha this is the razer naga hex lola ditto weight league of legends hold on that's different oh yeah it came not a laughing thing ok so this is the razer naga expert mobile which i actually had to look up i haven't heard of that before so it's apparently something something something can't remember multiplayer online battle arena that's a genre now I mean I always thought we just called it dota and League of Legends because those are sort of the primary games but there you go optimised for mobile and action RPG games or I mean MMO probably is just as valid for something like this because however unlike the regular Naga which has 12 buttons on the side the Naga hex is named such because it only has six buttons on the side so it's not quite as as crazy optimized for tons and tons and tons of different functionality but more like you want to have a bunch of different profiles with a few different commands that you'd want to be able to execute at a moment's notice now if you followed - tech tips you probably already know that I do like the Naga the original one I've never tried the hex although based on what I'm seeing so far they're going to be pretty similar and I do like the idea of mice that have a lot of buttons on the side the G 600 was probably the biggest disappointment for me out of the lot just because and again if you've watched Linus tech tips videos for a while you'll have you'll know this already but because I found the I found the tracking to feel sort of a little bit laggy there's some some latency there that was bothering me whereas the Naga I have never had that problem so it's I mean you can see that it's one of the ones that's actually on our gaming test bench so we do actually use it it's you can always tell when we pull something out and it's sort of nearby and convenient that it's something that we like and actually use day-to-day so there you go so let's have a look at what Razer includes dominate the fields of justice with the Naga hex cool okay so there's a little card there there's some good at packaging giving you a little like things that are sort of neat changing the rubber thumb rest okay so there's a thumb rest in the middle which you can apparently adjust to different side grips right there so you've got a larger one and a smaller one and then it looks like the medium one comes equipped on the mouse and this is smart actually for a reason that I'll explain in a moment we've got some Razer stickers which are obviously pretty sweet as well as the rest of their usual documentation ah yes you get a free Champion with the mouse and since I don't need a League of Legends champion I would be happy to give them to you guys so you get a free Tryndamere yay first one to reclaim the code gets it there you go enjoy free giveaway for you guys there all right so what's good about the Naga hex first of all it has the same shape as the original Naga which I like it's perfect for sort of smaller and smallish medium hands to be very nicely contoured so you can see from both angles here there's somewhere to rest your pinky somewhere to rest your ring finger places for your middle and index fingers and of course somewhere to put your thumb I find for myself personally this is the best ergonomic Razer Mouse that I have used and I've used pretty much all of them I also really like this this improvement on the hex here versus the original Naga so people complain with the original Naga that you would often accidentally hit these buttons when you're trying to lift the mouse off the surface I personally never had that issue with it but some people did so what they've done is they've added this thumb rest right in the middle of your six buttons here number one is that depending on what size you use you can optimize it so that you can easily feel your way around these buttons and number two is that also gives you a complete a convenient place to hold the mouse should you want to easily lift off the table so without using these two fingers at all I can take the mouse I can go like hold on there we go yeah I can go like this without actuated any of those side buttons I can move quite vigorously so this is extremely handy now in terms of mappings similar to the original Naga it looks like they've changed the pad on the bottom so the original Naga had a ring shaped pad around the entire Mouse whereas the hex version has got smaller pad feet that are here these approaches look pretty similar to me because the surface area see it's quite thin around the edges here looks pretty similar they're going to take a long way to wear down either way but their selections here so you can either use the number pad to to bind to these keys automatically or you can use the number keys across the top of the keyboard they both also include more support right around the sensor itself it is a laser mouse there you go so there's that one on that one in right in the middle of the mouse so it glides extremely smoothly now in terms of buttons on this guy right here there's the six on the side so these are mechanical buttons it's got a very satisfying click to them whereas the original Naga didn't really have that click it was a very very different feel that are actually rated for up to 250 clicks per minute which i think is actually pretty interesting that's an awful lot of clicks especially given that you'd never click one of the individual buttons 250 times a minute unless it's about 5 times a second on one button so it's pretty much optimized for the most demanding workloads I think as far as that goes it does include support for synapse 2.0 now synapse originally there were a lot of complaints about it but Razer really addressed them with one of the most recent updates so it's their cloud-based software that allows you to essentially store your profiles for your peripheral and take them with you because anytime you're connected to the Internet you log in to your profile and it'll go boom you're using your Razer peripherals ok these are all the settings that you like to use so it's just a cloud-based thing but originally if you didn't log in you wouldn't be able to even use the profiles on a peripheral that you'd already plugged in so they've completely fixed that now so it works even in offline mode and it'll give you the most up-to-date ones if you are not an offline mode going back to the most they've relocated two of the other buttons as well so by default these are your back and forward buttons on the original Naga whereas now instead of having two buttons up here what I actually found were quite difficult to reach particularly this one anyway they relocated them here and more like the traditional dpi sensor switching location that people are more used to seeing whereas this is a bit of a there's not that many mice that use this particular configuration did I mention over has a 5600 DPI sensor I hope I did in terms of the rest of the looks there hasn't really been that much that's changed so instead of an illuminated Razer logo here there's an illuminated League of Legends logo which goes along with the co-branding of the mouse as well as instead of a blue illuminated scroll wheel they've gone with a yellow one instead so we're going to go ahead and plug this in so you guys can get a good idea of what the mouse looks like once it lights up and we're going to finish up with a quick unboxing of the accompanying League of Legends Goliath is mousepad so there you go it has some League of Legends artwork on it it's also got sort of the usual things you've come to expect from any Goliath as' mousepad so it has an anti fray edge so it's not going too well fray although in my experience usually even the ones that go straight to the edge with the regular Mouse we've usually take two to three years to start fraying it's got a nice rubber bottom on it so I mean what is there to say about it it has League of Legends graphics on it it goes with your mouse and it's made by Razer so it's probably fine it has a pretty tight weave so it's a fairly smooth surface for a clock pad so personally I do prefer a bit of a less dense weave but that comes down to the individual users choice and I think that pretty much wraps it up now it's come to my attention that you guys guys may not have seen the game code the first time around so I'm just going to flash that one more time and best of luck to whoever gets the barbarian there thank you for checking out oh yeah I think they're rated for yet 10 million click lifecycle for the for the buttons on the mouse and I think that's everything that I wanted to say about it thanks for checking out this unboxing don't forget to subscribe to - tech tips for more unboxings reviews and other computer videos and know there was more thing I wanted to say there's 24 click spots Razer for whatever reason calls that out 24 we can count them together if you'd like or we could just end the video now make sure you subscribe
