Rantopad FF Gaming Mouse and MAX Aluminum Pad Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2015-11-12

The FF Gaming Mouse from Rantopad is clearly not in the same league as the other high-end products we have tested in more recent reviews, but comes with good quality materials and is shape is quite comfortable to be used for many hours at a time. While most manufacturers nowadays like to leave the mouse performance customization via software, FF Mouse allows adjustment via two switches on its bottom, for Polling Rate and DPI. At the heart of the mouse we will find the proven Avago A3090 sensor, which can drive the DPI up to 3500.

Rantopad FF Gaming Mouse Part II

We have received the FF Mouse “lime” color version and it does also come with the manufacturer logo on the back; the mouse does sport a comfortable shape and it is advertised as manufactured with 3D printing technology:

 

 

 

The top surface offers a decent grip and the lack of a rubberized finish is a plus in our book since we have seen that in that case lint and skin oils are depositing much faster on the surface and are very hard to remove afterwards:

 

 

 

The lateral sides of the mouse are also made of plastic but this time of black color and the texture offers even more grip. On the left side Rantopad has placed two programmable buttons:

 

 

 

The right side is pretty much the same material, but since no extra buttons are present the comfort is good for resting the pinky:

 

 

 

In the frontal area we can take a closer look at the rubberized scroll wheel which is quite silent during use and the fact that the manufacturer is using a braided cable, which is quite unexpected for such a low priced product:

 

 

 

On the bottom area of the FF Mouse we have the Avago A3090 sensor lens and unlike any other similar products, the Polling Rate and DPI can be selected via switches and three steps are available for each. In each corner we do have small PTFE feet which resemble the ones found on cheaper OEM mice:

 

 

 

The USB connector has been slightly modified for compactness and Rantopad has also used gold plating for optimal contact:

 

 

 

FF Mouse does have lighting system enabled for both scroll wheel and back logo; an interesting “breathing” effect is to be observed when moving the mouse fast on the surface, when the pulsation frequency will increase:
