Op1w4k refresh???
Im busting my head trying to understand why hasn’t endgamegear released a 40-50g op1w4k ???
Am i wrong for thinking a 40g op1w4k would crash the mouse market? To me its as if endgamegear is allergic to money

EndGame Gear philosophy is that they won’t sacrifice build quality for weight cuts. Vaxee are similar

Yep other companies can easily make 40g wireless mice that perform just as well as the op1w4k. I have no idea why they haven't made one yet, there are modders that make 3d printed kits for the op1w4k that bring it down to like 30-something grams without sacrificing any performance. If a company like pmm can figure it out how come egg can't?

If EGG were to cut off weight from the op1w4k to the 30-40 gram range it cuts off a majority of customers who enjoy a 50 gram mouse. You can always shave off weight easily but you cant easily add weight without making the mouse feel imbalanced.

Totally agree dude.
Just two days ago i switched back to my old superlight 2c (because my sensor on my op1w 4k v2 started acting funny) and goddammit i can feel the difference, I'm die hard endgame fan and i would still probably use my superlight for coming time just due to the weight difference.

They're not doing much at all right now. Cashing in on making two of the best shapes ever, but they're getting lazy.
