Artisan Ninja FX hien Soft Large Black mouse pad

Great mousepad. This was my first Artisan pad, and I bought it after hearing how durable they are and how well they hold their surface over time. That reputation ended up being completely true for me. My only “complaint” is sizing. I really thought the Large would be bigger, but it is honestly pretty small. If you are used to XL pads, this will feel limiting fast, especially for low sens. That said, the smaller size ended up being a nice surprise for a different use case. I now use this as my productivity/desk pad because the footprint makes more sense in that setup, and it actually looks cleaner than an XL in that scenario. Durability has been excellent. I have had it since 2022 and it still feels brand new. The texture has not worn down, the stitched edges are still perfect, and the base still grips well. I wash it occasionally and clean it regularly with a damp towel, and it has held up extremely well. I also tried the Hayate Otsu, and I agree with what I wrote in my other review: the Otsu is not a direct “upgrade” to the Hien. They are different pads for different preferences and playstyles (same idea with the Zero having its own fanbase). Going forward, I will probably buy a larger size for gaming because I am a low-sensitivity player. I aim with my whole arm and use my wrist for micro-adjustments. I did not start that way (I used to be more of a wrist aimer), but over years of gaming this style has given me more control. Because of that, larger mousepads are a must for me in many games.

I've had this pad for roughly a year now and it has not betrayed me, while it did take a little to adjust from going from an x-raypad ac v2 once the adjustment period was over I was in love with the speed and feel. For me personally I couldn't use this pad without a sleeve as I tend to dig my palm into the pad. Another thing worth noting is that the base of the pad sticks well to the desk the pad will not move unless you want it to move which is amazing because I hate when my mouse pad moves even 1 mm at the end of a gaming session. This pad is huge the only time I found myself needing more space was when I was in a prolonged close range fight where I never had time to lift my mouse to reset it. Keynotes The base has great stick to desk The feeling of the pad in use is amazing Personally I need to use a sleeve however it is not a pad where most would need one Large amount of mouse space unless your a low sense monster you won't need something bigger VERY IMPORTANT- if you are going to wash this pad please please please make sure that when you put the pad in a towel do not roll the towel this pad will be permanently messed up if you do so. Mine looks fine now after I messed it up but because of the small creases it messes up the sensor of the mouse.

This was the first mousepad I bought for performance. I have always bought deskmats or mousepads with design in mind and never really thought about the performance. After doing some research about mousepads, I came across Artisan mousepads and had to get one. I couldn't wait for the shipping from Japan so I came to Amazon. Feel: This mouse pad is a little bit rough. So far, I have been gaming without a long sleeve and haven't seen any issues. I know some people don't like the feeling on their forearm/wrist, but it hasn't really affected me. I only notice it if I pay attention to it, but there hasn't been any irritation on my skin of any sort. Quality: The stitched edges look and feel great. I didn't spot any fraying or imperfections on the stitching. The pad feels like it will last a long time, but I've only had it for a little over a month. Functionality: I wanted a speed pad and was looking at the Artisan Raiden, but decided to get the Hien since I read online that the Raiden had issues with Logitech mouse sensors. After getting new mouse skates paired with the Hien, it is plenty of speed for me. I can't imagine how fast it would feel with the Raiden, so I am happy I went with the Hien. Overall, I am happy with my purchase. I could never go back to my old generic extended mouse pad I bought from Amazon years ago. Maybe I need to switch to new pads more often, but I will see how this Hien holds up. I feel like the Hien would be a great pad to start off with to see if you want something faster or slower. Also, mouse skates makes a huge difference. My OEM skates on my Logitech mouse felt more controlled, but too slow for my liking. After switching to new skates, it created the perfect pairing with my Hien.

Nice texture

Voici un tapis qui me plaît énormément avec une belle texture et qualité de fabrication. Il procure une belle glisse et vitesse avec un bon contrôle il me fait penser à mon défunt razer goliathus control + que j’avais celui si fait exactement et mieux. J’ai chercher longtemps avant de trouver le bon équivalant à mon ancien tapis. Et le voici le voilà je le recommande à tous.

Took me a long time to commit to buying the mouse pad due to the price, no regrets at all.

Producto 10/10 el material antideslizante es el mejor y la precisión del ratón con esta alfombrilla es magnifico lo unico que puede ser que para algunas personas se les queda un pelín pequeña pero por lo demas una de las mejores alfombrillas del mundo

Tapis de souris idéal, la livraison et le packaging peuvent surprendre de la sobriété mais il s'agit bien d'un vrai et surtout de l'import Japan ce qui explique tout cela mais revenons au tapis, il est parait ne laisse aucune peluche et durable dans le temps, la taille est parfait ni trop grand ni trop petit.
