The selection of mouse pads

The mouse pad is no longer an accessory to the computer, but a key piece of equipment that affects efficiency, comfort and style. From hardcore players to creative workers, everyone needs one.

Core selection dimension: First, ask yourself three questions
Who are you? (Main uses

E-sports players: Pursuing extreme speed, precise control and consistency.

Office/daily users: Pursue comfort, quietness and durability.

Creative professionals (designers, editors) : Pursuing precise cursor control and spacious interior.

Desktop aesthetics enthusiast: Pursuing style, texture and overall desktop matching.

What kind of mouse do you use?

Optical/laser mouse: Compatible with the vast majority of pads.

E-sports grade high-speed sensor mouse: High requirements for the consistency of the surface texture of the pad.

Wireless charging mice (such as Logitech PowerPlay) : A dedicated mouse pad is required.

How much desktop space and preferences do you have?

Standard size (~40x30cm) : Space-saving, suitable for small desktops.

Increased/lengthened size (over 80cm) : It provides a wide moving area, allowing both the keyboard and mouse to be placed simultaneously, with a strong sense of visual integration.

Key parameters and design details
Thickness (usually 1-6mm) :

Thin pads (1-3mm) : More direct operation feel and easier to carry.

Thick pads (4-6mm) : Offer better cushioning and desktop flatness, providing greater comfort.

Edge wrapping

With lockstitch: Effectively prevents the edges of the fabric pad from coming apart or fuzzing, prolongs its lifespan, and is a symbol of quality.

Borderless: Lower price, but the edges may wear out.

Base anti-slip:

Natural rubber: It has a good anti-slip effect, but it may have an odor.

Synthetic rubber/silicone: Excellent anti-slip performance, more environmentally friendly and odorless.

Surface texture

Fine noodles: More precise control, slightly greater friction.

Rough surface: Higher smoothness and faster start-up.

Scenario-based recommendation list
The first choice for e-sports players: medium and large-sized lockedge fabric pads (such as SteelSeries QcK, Zowie G-SR) or hard/glass pads (for speed pursuit).

All-in-one office choice: medium-sized lockstitch fabric pads or leather pads with soft wrist rests.

Creative workers/programmers: Extra-large extended pad (XXL/Deskpad), covering the desktop, uniform and beautiful, providing boundless mouse movement space.

Desktop aesthetics expert: Pay attention to fabric pads in collaboration with design brands or artists, or uniquely textured dyed resin pads and glass pads.

Wireless charging users: Choose brand-specific charging mouse pads (such as Logitech PowerPlay compatible pads).
