I was looking for a GOOD mouse pad ... but what I found instead was an AWESOME mouse pad. I've seen excellent reviews for this mouse pad on YouTube and the price was right - I just had to try it out. I removed the protective backer film from the mouse pad and stuck it to my glass desk top. As it's name suggests, it's RAZER thin. I can move my mouse back and fourth and the lip of my mouse pad does not rub up and irritate the underside of my wrist. It sticks best to glass, but I've tried it on wood too, and it works perfectly. You can relocate the mouse pad by rinsing the back and letting it air dry (if it's glass, however, you can just slop it on there - no problem and dry the edges). Oh that's another thing. It's polycarbonate so you can clean and disinfect it easily - something you can do with a traditional rubber and cloth mouse pad.

Matte Poly Carbonate Gaming Surface | Ultra thin and textured mouse surface

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2020

Size: SmallStyle: Sphex V2Verified Purchase

I just needed a mouse pad and didn't read the description as much as I should have. No complaints the pad is awesome! It came on time in a nice flat package. I haven't seen how the mouse-pad market has grown and didn't realize the choices.

At first glance in person I thought this was an interchangeable face to a mouse-pad (which it still could be). Where's the pad? It said ultra thin but I wasn't expecting construction paper thin. It's technically a textured plastic sticker. High quality and functions like a charm.

Sizes are posted but for reference it's as wide as a laptop keyboard so "mini" is being humble. It was bigger than generic mouse pad. Unlike the word "mini", the "pad" part is really modest in mouse pad. There's no padding in the pad so it's more like a lily pad thin. It's sleek & matte which nicely mutes the loud coloring. It also has a very nice t-shirt tag style logo on the side. I haven't used the adhesive backing yet. Not sure how reusable that is. Instead I'm using tiny pieces of blue-tack holding it in place. I've gotten compliments on it already and I'm very happy.

It works and makes my magic mouse too responsive which is awesome! If you have a matching sized pad I can see this also going on top? My assumption is the padding isn't as needed in laser style mouses so why pay for what you don't need? Not having padding does make the mouse feel different but of course you get used to it. Hope this was useful and sorry for the rant about mouse padding.

Awesome little mat for gaming

Perfect little mouse mat. It's amazingly thin. You don't even have to take the backing off if you don't want to commit to a location and it's still thinner than any mouse pad I've tried. Even with the backing on, it doesn't shift while I'm using it. It was always a fight with my previous mouse pad to get it to stay put. It was like dealing with a sugared-up toddler at times. It's currently parked next to my laptop while its big brother is on my computer desk. Even though it says "mini", it's still got plenty of room. The texture is nice for speed and control, it's easily as good as the fairly expensive metal (and somewhat bulky) gaming mouse pad that I was using at a fraction of the cost. It's almost like having nothing at all on your desk, but you'll notice the difference. I don't mind the slightly muted color scheme, but maybe it's just because I'm not as young as I used to be a flashy colors don't appeal as much. Besides, you're not buying it because it's pretty, you're buying it because it works and this one is definitely worth picking up. Comes with a couple of little Razer stickers. Can't think of what I personally would use them for, but if you're an aficionado of Razer, I'm sure you could find somewhere to use them. Solid purchase.

Awesome mousepad, best I think I've ever had!

Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2017

Size: LargeStyle: Sphex V2Verified Purchase

Admittedly I've not had it very long, but so far I'm very happy with this. It comes flat-packed, like a sheet of paper, not rolled. So there's no roll to fight against when setting it up. It's very thin, but textured, so that the mouse glides easily over it but you can still feel a little resistance, which is perfect for me. Size is just right for what I'm looking for. The colors aren't as bright as in the picture, seems that's just how they all are, but that doesn't bother me at all.

Biggest for me, there is no smell at all. That's why I avoid neoprene mousepads, they really reek. This one has no odor whatsoever.

Would absolutely recommend, plus it comes at a really great price!

Update - Alright, I've had it for a while now, and I need to knock off a star. It works great as a mouse pad, however the adhesive needs to be reworked. I was applying it to my desk, and had to make a slight readjustment (before I'd fully pressed it down). Even a light touch removed some of the finish from my desk! I'm sure now that it's fully adhered, it'll do much more damage if I ever try to remove it.

This might work fine for glass surfaces, but for wood or laminate I'd be very careful or you might ruin your desk. Similarly, I doubt I could ever transfer this to a new desk with all the stuff now stuck to the bottom of it.

Must have for travellers

If you move / travel a lot and are in need of a mouse pad, speak no more ! This is an awesome mouse pad that I highly recommend. However for home / office desks, you can find something else (with RGB lighting for example). I personally use the Razer Firefly Hard V2, Razer Naga Trinity Gaming mouse and Razer Goliathus Extended for my home desk. And in my laptop case I always have this product : the Razer Sphex V2 Mini.

I just love how thin it is and how smooth the surface is. The mouse experience is really great. This mouse pad suits all kinds of usage (everyday use, work, and Gaming !). I have been using it for few weeks now and it's great so far. I can mention just one possible concern: even though the materials seem to be of high quality and the end product look very well done, I am just worried that the mouse pad will start showing some folds at the edges over time. Even though it's still not the case, but I will definitely update my review in case it happens.

I definitely recommend this !

Bought this for my desk, matches the RBG of my other razer stuff and i have 0 issues with mouse tracking. Crumbs and this thing go together like a pallet jack and a zip tie though, gotta keep it clean or all sort of things go wrong. It's semi permanent, meaning it doesn't slip around your desk, you peel the plastic off and stick it, and it stays. You can remove if you want to, but you will have 0 slippage or slideage. I pour coffee on it every week or so just to make sure gravity, surface tension and physics laws of liquids are still working, it brushes right off.

Sphex V2, large: Very thin, noisy surface (too rough), super sticky back, and silly logo attached

Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2022

Size: LargeStyle: Sphex V2Verified Purchase

I got the Sphex V2 in large

Use case: on glass top desk, with Apple magic mouse (I am not using it for gaming)
I dislike mousepads that are thick and also cloth surfaces don't work for the magic mouse (piling dirt and particles underneath the mouse)

Like:
1. Super thin (just fantastic)
2. Form factor of the Sphex V2 in large is perfect for my desk
3. Color is fun

Dislike:
1. WHY DO THEY CUT A HOLE IN THE MOUSE PAD AND STICK A LOGO FLAG ONTO IT??? OMG, such a bad call.
2. Surface is pretty rough. Magic mouse is noisy on this. I also have the Razer Destructor 2 and it is smoother.
3. That glue backing is freaking me out. On a glass table, ok. But I would never ever stick this to a wood surface. That's a nightmare waiting to happen.
4. Little pieces of dirt get stuck underneath - I am not sure how to clean those off the sticky backing.

Summary: Would probably not buy this again... For a glass table, it's ok.

SMOOOOOTH!!!!

Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2022

Size: LargeStyle: Sphex V2Verified Purchase

I've been using this pad a while now and it's great! I really thought I needed the drag that rubber mousepads have in order to keep my hand steady while gaming, but after I gave this one a shot I saw I was completely wrong. I love how smooth and effortless the action is, and my hands are just as steady (or unsteady lol) as they were with the rubber pads. In fact, my boyfriend heard my cries of joy and bought one for himself! There are two downsides to this pad, however, although they shouldn't discourage you from buying one: One, the back is tacky to keep it from sliding around on your desk, but apparently it can't be repositioned more than once or maybe twice, so make sure it's right where you want it before sticking it down. Two, crumbs are no longer a minor inconvenience. Crumbs will get stuck under your mouse's skidpads and be gritty, scratchy, and annoying af, so you will need to wipe your pad down fairly often, especially if you snack at your desk a lot. But hey, it's an excuse to shake the crumbs out of your keyboard as well!

Using with new mamba tournament edition. Multi colored surface doesn't seem to be the most accurate but its good. Sticky stuff on bottom is designed to be semi permanent, once you stick it, it's not easy to move around, you basically have to peel it up off your desk. The peel off thing on the bottom should be rubbery and semi tacky and issue a warning to use it without peeling off if you don't want it "stuck." If you peel that thing, be prepared to stick it where you want to keep it.

EDIT:
After using this for some time, I am extremely disappointed with Razer support. The mouse mat is still decent on its own but the fact remains that you expect some better level of support between Razer products where in this case its actually worse. This mouse mat works pretty well with other brands of gaming mice. Razer mice are ultra finicky, especially around calibration and liftoff. The Mamba TE which I have also has jitter issues. Razer preloads calibration profiles for their mouse pads into their "synapse" software but this mouse mad is conveniently still missing a year later. I think the reason is, this crazy surface especially with the colors, is difficult to calibrate to. My Mamba TE is unusable to game with because even calibrated, the jitter is amazingly unnerving but even worse is the liftoff. A good current example is fortnite, where if i liftoff while I am dropping out of the bus, I will spin in circles ultra fast abount 5-10 rotations. These issues do not only occur at high sensitivity, even if i lower it to around 800-1000 sensitivity I still have these issues. Obviously razer has mouse issues as well but I mention it because their answer is always "calibrate the mouse to the surface," which is supposed to be much easier on razer surfaces because the profile is preloaded. I have been buying and evangelizing Razer products since their very first mouse but I am seriously getting tired of the poor reliability, almost nonexistent QA and poor build quality. I like the features, ergonomics and design, I guess I am stuck in a rut. I have had problems with every Razer product I've owned except the replacement for my 2014 Blackwidow ultimate stealth and I have bought about 2-3 Razer products a year on average for the past 10 years.

Arrived BENT from warehouse storage or shipping

Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2020

Size: LargeStyle: Sphex V2Verified Purchase

Came in a flat pack envelope but the mailman folded it and put it in my mailbox. I'm 60% sure that's what caused the irreversible bend in the mousepad. Amazon wouldn't accept a return since it wasn't defective from the manufacturer. I guess I would have to file a claim with the USPS? With that said...

It has a rubber-like bottom that is almost supposed to adhere to the desktop. But with the bend (it's sadly a U bend so the sides lift up not force down) the pad will not sit on the desk flat. After failing to be able to return the pad to Amazon I tried to fold it the other way to no avail. Which is why I'm 60% sure it's USPS's fault. It could have been sitting in an Amazon warehouse in a tube as well for all I know. Either way, the sides fold up and I ended up putting clear tape on my 4 corners of the mouse pad. Am I sad, yes. Did that fix my problem fully? No. The long ends of the sides still try to fold upward. I don't want to tape down the mouse pad all around but I almost have to if I want to keep it stuck down flat.
I bought this mousepad, a DeathAdder 20kDPI, Cyanosa Keyboard, 2 Orbweavers, and a Kraken TE headset all in the same purchase. My only regret is this crappy mousepad. I'm fully satisfied with the functionality and appearance of the rest of my Razer gear. But I paid 20$ for a crap bent mousepad when I could have bought a soft one with a wrist rest for the same price.
Does it function as a mousepad? Yes. Did it arrive defective? Yes. Does Amazon care? No.
For that, I give it 3 stars. You might get a 5 star flat one with no damage. Good for you! But I am reviewing what I got and I am upset I have to tape my mousepad down and Amazon didn't want to accept responsibility and replace it.
