Lexip - Mouse Ceramic Glide Feet (6-Piece)

These things glide like nothing I've ever used before. I have to use a cloth mouse pad to slow them down a bit. They even work fantastic on my wooden computer desk without the mouse pad. They are a direct replacement for the LEXIP Pu94, but I have them setup on my Logitech G700s. They are a bit on the pricey side, but once you have them on, you will instantly know why.

If you have a mouse that you want to keep and upgrade I would recommend this product. I installed it on an old wireless mouse that I have used and what an improvement with functionality. Only con to this is trying to get the little sticky adhesive tape on the small ceramic disks and sticking it to the bottom of the mouse. Other than that. No other cos.

The Lexip Ceramic Glide Feet for your mouse is one of the easiest ways to improve your overall experience computing. It is a brilliant idea that has a finally arrived. Here is how it works. • Choose your mouse that you want upgraded. Once you have decided that then you can begin the process. • Take the cloth included and wipe really well the bottom surface of the mouse. Choose the packet labeled 1, and take out the cleansing wipe. Turn your mouse over on its back and use the cleansing pad to clean thoroughly this surface. • Then use the packet labeled 2 to dry any remaining residue from the 1st packet. Now that the bottom of your mouse is clean, you can start sticking on the Ceramic Glide Feet. • This by far is the simplest step, except it is not explained very well in the instructions. You are supposed to use the 8 count double sided tape to attach the Ceramic Glide Feet. (You only need six of the double sided tape because this package only has 6 Ceramic Glide Feet) So here is where the problem began for me. I decided on 4 Ceramic Glide Feet that hold the mouse steady and move smoothly. I peeled the double sided tape and stuck it on the bottom surface of the mouse. Then I attempted to peel off the top layer of the double sided tape. I tried and tried but I could not pull off the top to the tape without pulling off the whole paper layer. I tried many times and only found out by accident that the sticky side of the double sided tape was meant to be left on when I pulled the actual tape off. So I pulled the tape off leaving a sticky residue on the flat side of the Ceramic Glide Foot. So with the paper off, I pressed the flat side on the mouse. It worked perfectly and I proceeded to do that with the other 3 Ceramic Glide Feet. A little trial and error paid off well in the end. I just wish it was explained better, especially about leaving the sticky residue on the flat side of the Ceramic Glide Feet (that is why 4 stars instead of 5 stars). But all is well that ends well and I very happy with the results. The mouse with the Lexip Ceramic Glide Feet made a huge difference in how my mouse moves on the surface (so smoothly), and how much more accurate it displays on the computer screen. I really do love this simple but effective way of upgrading my mouse. It definitely brings my old mouse to work better than it previously did. Want to buy a new mouse? Check out this upgrade first, you will be surprised how well it works.

---SETUP--- The setup of the Lexip ceramic glide feet can take as little as 3 minutes, but I recommend you take your time to make sure that the installation is as leveled as possible. This involved swiping the bottom portion of a mouse with included alcohol swabs, drying it with the included cloth swab, and placing double-sided firm stickers on the ceramic feet and the mouse of your choice. ---FEATURES--- The key feature of these ceramic feet is that it makes your mouse glide more smoothly after installation, therefore creating less friction and making your mouse movements faster. ---PERFORMANCE--- The performance of the feet are excellent. I previously used ceramic feet on a Lexip mouse and the glide feel was one of my favorite features. If you aren’t ready for a mouse upgrade to a Lexip, you can get that Lexip feel by installing these on any mouse that has a flat surface on the bottom. It does make a big difference when using the gliding feet. ---EXPECTATIONS--- The product meets my expectations. The installation wasn’t difficult, but it isn’t for all mice. I have several gaming mice and one of them didn’t have a smooth bottom surface (pictured) so that mouse wasn’t ideal. A separate mouse from a different brand was a perfect candidate and I was able to compare the Lexip vs. the mouse where I installed the glide feet. Both glided as expected on a mouse pad, but they may not glide as well on your wooden or glass table top. ---VALUE--- The price for the ceramic glide feet is an affordable solution to upgrade your gaming mouse if you’re not ready to invest in another mouse. ---APPROVAL--- I highly recommend this product for gamers who play a lot of FPS games or people who want a smoother experience out of their existing mouse.

These are the same ceramic pads that are on the Lexip Pu94 mouse and just like that mouse they are amazingly smooth for gliding compared to most mice with the plastic pads. However, the “All mice compatible laser & optical” statement is a bit misleading. Yes, you can stick these little pads to all mice, but some mice can’t be lifted as high as these pads are thick without issues. Even their “check compatibility” isn’t very detailed. It will also take some trial and error to get the best placement for them. I found in one configuration in which I used all 6 feet the mouse would rock if on a hard surface, but not noticeable on a padded surface. For most mice you could probably just use four of the pads, but that is also dependent on your surface, especially if you find yourself catching the edge of your mouse pad. The directions on their site, on the box and on the included manual are all slightly different from what is provided. Self adhesive feet are mentioned, yet there is no adhesion on the feet. There are eight 3M branded sticky pads included, which is nice if you make a mistake. So, after cleaning the surface with the included wipes you have to apply these really tiny and thin stickers, then apply the pads. The pads are flat on one side and slightly beveled on the other, so without any specific indication as to which side is which, be sure to double check. Without a doubt though, these pads make the mouse glide so much smoother than the original mouse surface. On a mouse pad I can flick the mouse across with a finger, unlike before. With the generic gaming mouse I added them to I had no issues with tracking and it made it feel better in quality. Only had a little bit of frustration with working with such tiny surfaces and trying to peel the stickers.

I’ve had mixed results with these add-on glide feet. They do just what is claimed. Stick them on the bottom of a mouse, and they’ll make it glide with nearly zero resistance. Being rounded, little ceramic buttons, they also don’t tend to gather any dust and lint like most mouse feet. They are so slick that if you have a corded mouse, you’ll need a very good and limber cord, or you may feel an interference. However, there are some caveats. They are a bit tricky just to apply. They come with some 3M sticky dots that are less than completely easy to handle and position. I found that a small tool was necessary or they stuck to your fingers before getting them positioned (see pictures). Peeling the paper off the dot was also a bit of a pain. The other issue is that they raise the mouse above the pad or surface, and some mice didn’t work properly. If you have a high-end gaming mouse, you may need to adjust the lift-off distance to get the tracking to be accurate. It also seemed to make a lot of difference what surface you had the mouse on. I wanted to use them with my Razer Mamba Wireless and finally found that using the feet only on the front (two rather than four glide feet) everything worked well and the feel was good. In conclusion. Yes, they work, but you may need to be willing to fiddle some to get what you want. I'd give a qualified recommendation to my friends.

I've been lucky enough to use the Lexip mouse, which already has these on the bottom of the mouse. It makes moving across any surface a breeze. Inside the package you'll find the six feet, some double sided adhesives for the installation, and a small leaflet showing where you should place them on your mouse. In this case, you put two toward the front, two in the middle along the sides, and two toward the rear. In this case, I installed them on another wireless mouse I use for MMORPG sessions. It was a night and day difference. The mouse literally glides. If you place it on an uneven surface, the mouse will move, it's not broken. I actually figured out my desk was uneven on one side because of this. When you begin placing the adhesive strips, just make sure you're placing them on the flat side. Some of my feet had a small dimple in them, making it easy to see. Also, it comes with a couple of extra in case you're worried about messing any of them up. The adhesive used reminds me of that rubbery glue used on some mailed debit cards, just much thinner. Once it's on the feet, it doesn't feel like it will move or come off, it just stays put. Just make sure it's close to the center, so there isn't any sticking out to the side. So far I've had them on the mouse for over a week, and they haven't budged. The included cleaning cloth was a nice bonus. Allowed me to remove the small bits of gunk that was sticking to the bottom. The also comes with a couple of stickers, if you want to add some branding to your computer or mouse. This is a pretty great addition to any gaming mouse. This made movement effortless and really did change the way I game!

These ceramic feet are awesome, easy to install, and show that Lexip cares about you buying their products and KEEPING them. Planned obsolescence is something that, more than ever, has seemed to plague the tech industry. For those of you who do not know, one of its loose definitions is the creation of products with the intention of them having faults or advancements in subsequent models that make them obsolete, hence the term planned obsolescence. These ceramic feet in the ever stylish Lexip manner show that they want you to use the heck out of their mouse (perhaps mice one day here soon) and keep on replacing the parts that wear out or could use a different feel from the beginning, like these feet. With all of these things in mind, I give these a solid 5 stars. Well done, Lexip!
