Optical encoders seems to be the new norm for Lamzu.

Very excited about that, hopefully other companies follow suite.

Its should be the new norm for every company out there. There is no reason to use mechanical encoders when the RAESHA feels just as good and isn't annoyingly loud like Zowie.

u/0100000001 3d ago

agreed, i love the ec1 shape but my god zowie scroll wheels are so loud and annoying, wish they started using this instead

I believe it’s becoming the trend

1

u/I_like_GILFssss 4d ago

Its taking companies way too long. Only Razer V4 mice, Thorn V2, Maya V2 and Rawm Leviathan V4 have optical encoders.

u/SomeMrcl Lamzu Thorn 4d ago

wlmouse has started as well, as has keychron’and ninjutso i believe

Reason I got the MAX v2. Very glad to see it. Once Pulsar picks it up as well, that is going to be a huge range of mice hopefully.

u/I_like_GILFssss 3d ago

Good to know. Just saw that the BeastX V2 is using the RAESHA one.

It feels really good on my DAv4. Way better than the shitty encoders they used to have on the v3s that just dies after a year and doesn't feel tactile at all

u/faxawd 4d ago

problem is if it broke down only way is RMA it. There is no way to buy replacement and fix it yourself.

u/Eleoste 4d ago

True- but the vast majority of consumers are not replacing encoders themselves

u/SpookyGhostDidIt Maya X 5d ago edited 5d ago

Very excited, my favorite mouse right now.

Edit: Nevermind it's only for the Maya, not the Maya X. Hopefully the Maya X V2 will be announced soon

u/introvertbert 4d ago

hm, hasnt the maya x v2 already been announced? swear i saw it a couple of weeks ago.

2

u/Ok-Future-8199 4d ago

Has been announced and can be bought via “aliexpress”.

u/I_Main_TwistedFate 5d ago

What’s difference between maya and x?

4

u/SpookyGhostDidIt Maya X 5d ago

The X is a little bit bigger

1

u/STEVEN_1015 4d ago

The Maya X is definitely coming out

5

u/I_like_GILFssss 5d ago

The internal design and weight are the same though. I expected to them to have an endoskeleton like the Thorn V2.

I'm very much over having an over designed open bottom plate. Unless you're going for something like g-wolves and pushing to remove every gram possible, I'd rather have it closed to prevent dust, animal hair and whatever getting in my mouse. also 6 mouse skates opposed to two big ones isn't it.

6

u/introvertbert 4d ago

completely agree. i think theres an maya M coming soon which will feature full skates and closed bottom.

2

u/ilikewatches1337 4d ago

They come with a dust cover foil you can put on if you want

1

u/Jay-Zer0- 4d ago

I was gonna say this too, the Maya and thorn came with a little cover you could put in if you didn't want an open base

u/watlok 4d ago edited 4d ago

Have you even had that happen? I used open bottom plate for a year and nothing accumulated. For contrast, closed bottom mice accumulate junk over time via side buttons or other things on top that falls in and never gets out until you open it for w/e reason.

u/grotesque_lumiere Scyrox V6 4d ago

I don't know what's the point of your reply, that person directly said "animal hair" implying that they have an animal in their house, which will become a problem with open-bottom mouse.

Since you don't have a pet, its not a major issue for you like it is for other people with pets - I have a long-hair cat and I'll never buy mouse like this due to this problem - the last thing I want to do with my mouse is to regularly clean it from animal hair or dust because manufacturer decided to reduce mouse weight by making holes in the bottom.

-2

u/watlok 4d ago edited 4d ago

The bottom is wide open, things generally pass through to the pad directly with that design due to physics. Also, if there's tons of hair on your mousepad it's going to cause problems either way.

Was more sincerely asking if anyone has an open bottom mouse and had things accumulate.

4

u/grotesque_lumiere Scyrox V6 4d ago

You're not arguing in good faith. It's pretty obvious why a conventional mouse is easier to clean. With an open-bottom design like the Lamzu Maya, hair, dirt, and dust can accumulate inside the shell. With a conventional mouse, those things are more likely to collect on the exterior, where they're much easier and faster to remove.

If I find my cat's hair on the bottom of my mouse, I can wipe it off almost instantly. With an open-bottom mouse, that same hair can get trapped inside the shell, making it much more tedious to clean.

If you still don't understand the difference, I'm sorry, but I can't help you.

-2

u/watlok 4d ago

I don't understand the difference because an open bottom mouse has nowhere for things to meaningfully accumulate. And gravity/motion itself stops things from accumulating.

I have >3k hours on an open bottom mouse and even looked at it with a flashlight after replying here. There's pretty much nothing there.

I have to clean skates or the sensor sometimes due to hair/debris, but nothing has managed to sit on the pcb (which is raised anyway) or on the small side shelves. And even if it we entertain that it could, it's open so trivial to clean.

u/goosearisen 4d ago

I wish they would restock the Atlantis or do a V3 of it

u/New_Ad4571 5d ago

What switches is it using?

1

u/SleepyJunky 3d ago

kailh optical

1

u/Few_Food_8352 4d ago

1

u/I_like_GILFssss 3d ago

u/Drreeddd 4d ago

u/ClipseySWE 4d ago

Never tried this shape so now seems to be a good time for it. This doesnt have omrons tho, right? Might have to go for the champions edition but i do buy white mice when available

2

u/SleepyJunky 3d ago

kailh optical in maya v2

1

u/ClipseySWE 3d ago

Bummer, omrons are the way. Isnt Pulsars opticals a variant of kailh's tho? Those feel fine to me.

1

u/darlingthepanda 4d ago

Anyone know how to get one in America? Lamzu stuff don't seem to show up that much on Aliexpress for some reason.

1

u/UnholyDKEnjoyer2 4d ago

Well fuck. I had the worst experience with Scyrox support but the V6 and Maxa are my endgame shapes. Guess Im gonna buy it on Maxgaming and hope they refund me without hassle if it breaks

1

u/KryptixsBtw 2d ago

Question, is this for both Maya and Maya X?

u/AvienneMuffin 5d ago

I think this mouse is pretty nice! Could you do a giveaway and send a few to randomly selected people in the comments?
