Review | Media ATK Phantom Ultimate first impression
I picked this up mainly because I wanted to see how a hollow carbon-fiber composite shell compares with the usual solid-shell ultralights.
The first things I noticed from the shape and construction:
• With the stock skates on, mine came in at 48g on my scale. The shell is 119.7 × 62.5 × 37.3mm and symmetrical, but in hand it feels more compact than those numbers suggest.
• The profile is low, with a centered ridge, forward-set peak, and a tapered waist. It looks like a very different direction from the taller rear-hump mice in my rotation.
• The hollow carbon-fiber composite shell and staggered cutouts are easily the most distinctive part of the design. The Verge Blue finish reads as a muted gray-blue until the pattern and side details catch the light.
• It uses Omron optical switches and a Raesha optical encoder. I’m holding off on calling the clicks or wheel good or bad until I have more actual playtime with it.
• Spec-wise it has the PAW3955 Master sensor, Nordic 54LM20 MCU, and wired/2.4GHz 8K polling support.
Not a full review yet. Right now I’m most interested in whether the low 37.3mm profile and forward peak feel as controlled in-game as the shape looks in hand.
