XFX WarPad Review

Introduction to XFX and the WarPod

Hello guys, you probably have heard of xfx at one point or another. They specialize in power supplies, graphics cards, and motherboards, and are now expanding into computer accessories with this unique gaming surface, the WarPod. While not the most affordable mousepad, it promises to eliminate discomfort during gaming and it just might be worth it. Let's take a look at this is no small mousepad with 16.97 inches in length and 13.98 inches in width.

The Large Size of the WarPod

This is considered extra extra large when compared to sizing of regular mouse pads, now does occupy a lot of surface on your desk so for space conscious gamers this might be a disadvantage and we're hoping xfx would perhaps release a smaller version of the warpad just to suit the needs of all gamers. But on the bright side, all those who prefer larger surface will definitely find the WarPod large enough for any type of gaming especially those who use low sensitivity for more accuracy which requires more movement on the mat and covering larger surface area.

The Selling Point of the WarPod

So let's take a closer look at the selling point of this product. It is secured onto the table using a clamp which serves several functions, it grips the table so the pad doesn't move and the rubberized surface at the bottom adds further stability but its main purpose is to add additional comfort for your forearm by getting rid of the edge which we are also accustomed to. While this may sound like a hopeless gimmick, it really does make a big difference when it comes to using a mousepad for either gaming or regular use.

The Comfort Feature

There are some limitations however to the sizing of the table this pad is suitable for but can clamp on tables up to 2 inches thick and requires two inches deep disc to allow the clamp to fully fit in place once pushed in it is stopped by a brace on each side of the pad. Now if it is placed on the desk that doesn't have two inches deep for the pad to slide into the clamp won't be completely pushed onto the edge of the table and may cause the edge to rise when placing a hand on the pad. This can be quite annoying and completely defeats the purpose of the clamp.

The Composition of the WarPod

Now let's talk about the composition of the WarPod, it is six millimeters thick and comprises of several formulators that are pleasant for the hand. As the top layer wears out xfx promises comfort throughout the entire life of the war pad due to the second layer of foam that will compensate as a cushion. Now one drawback to this type of foamy surface are the edges around the pad, this thin thread like pattern material on the top will wear out the edges and may not look appealing with extensive use.

The Testing Experience

Throughout our testing with gaming with popular titles like battlefield 3, it really made a huge difference in the overall comfort as the other hand was resting on a sharp glass edge. In terms of tracking the mouse movement for those accurate headshots, the sensor picked up tracking really well and we can't say anything negative regarding the tracking surface.

Conclusion

The WarPod brings something new to the table which most users will find useful, its extra extra large size is a big plus for having lots of room for mouse maneuvering with soft layers that are pleasant to the touch and flexibility that allows easy transport. While it's not all good news with this war pad at the time of this review, it is still quite a lot of money to spend on a mousepad. But with such a unique product we would be interested to see if xfx decides to engage in other computer peripherals.
