ROCCAT Savu Mid-Size Hybrid Gaming Mouse Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2012-07-10

Savu is a mid-sized mouse that may not be very suitable for people with big hands, built from quality materials and offers no-sweat rough plastic side grips for maximum precision in games. It features an adjustable 4000DPI Pro-Optic (R3) gaming sensor, with adjustable polling rate up to 1000Hz, Teflon feet for minimum friction and a 1.8m braided USB cable. A total of 4 buttons can be remapped (left and right mouse buttons, the scroll wheel button and one lateral), the fifth having Easy-Shift [+] functionality, meant to double the mappings for the programmable buttons.

TWO HEIGHTS

3mm + 5mm let you select the Taito that fits your style

 

The Taito has been tested in-house with many mouse models from different brands, to ensure that no problems occur while tracking with multiple sensors. The pad is available with two different heights (3mm or 5mm), which can be chosen depending on how much hand pressure is applied during play, to ensure extra comfort while gaming. Also, for each height, we can find three different mouse pad sizes: Mini-Size, Mid-Size, King-Size.

 

Along with the Savu, we have received for review the 3mm King-Size Taito mouse pad; the product is shipped inside a transparent plastic packaging, with information printed on the outside:

 

 

 

Some of the main product features can be found on the frontal area:

 

 

 

Also here we have a “presentation” area, where we can touch the “Speed Surface”, along with the “Heavy Grip” surface, without the need to unseal the packaging:

 

 

 

The Taito is built with a heat-blasted Nano Matrix structure, for delivering a high-speed surface on both X and Y axis, without sacrificing the control element:

 

 

 

The ROCCAT Scientist Dr. Erik J. Dale tells us about this product: “Be precise. A lack of precision is dangerous when the margin of error is small”:

 

 

 

The box can be unsealed without difficulties from the back; this is a nice touch considering that we have seen a lot of products in the past where we had to use the scissors all around the packaging for removing the seal:

 

 

 

On the back we have another leaflet, which shows, besides the product features we have listed earlier, a small product review from a professional gamer:

 

 

 

The King-Size pad variant is quite large (455mm x 370mm) and features an all black surface, with a small exception:

 

 

 

On the bottom right corner we can find the product logo:

 

 

 

The bottom side of the pad is designed with a non-slip rubberized material, for making sure that the pad won’t budge no matter how hard we would play:
