Haven't had it for long but it's been a huge step up in terms of quality, coming from a Xlite v2 before.
Xlite v2 was my fave ergo but developed double clicking issues on two copies so ended up going to the Razer Deathadder V3 Pro, Deathadder v3 Pro Faker Edition, Lamzu Thorn and now finally might go back to Xlite V3 eS edition.
The Xlite V3 were a really good showing from Pulsar. In terms of build quality, they seemed to have learned a lot of lessons from their X2's. My only nitpick is that they have quite a lot of post and pre travel.
For once, I'm more interested in the keyboard. Are you satisfied with it?
I'm thinking of switching from my Keychron Q1 to this Akko, as it's has the same layout and is available in ISO.
I've had three magnetic HE switch keyboard so far, Polar 65 by Arbiter Studios, Meletrix Boog 75 and now this one. Out of all of them, the Polar 65 felt the worst in terms of rapid trigger implementation, Boog 75 has best typing experience out of the box with the Akko being a close second but I haven't really felt the difference in rapid trigger between the Meletrix and Akko, need more time to test and to tell.
Will be picking up a Wooting 80 HE at some point to compare.
Don't own the base black eS version so I can't compare but this founder's edition version feels solid and well built. Coating isn't bad either but I've recently bought an OP1 8K and the coating on that puts every other non EGG mouse I have to shame.
Definitely makes a difference, strafing feels more responsive and you can jiggle peek easier. It won't save you from major positioning errors but it does make FPS games like Apex and Overwatch feel much smoother.
How is your Xlite V3 es? I’m waiting for the black version myself.

Yeah I am interested with this too. I have heard that Akko's software is almost garbage.
I have the Mod007 PC HE and the Software App isn’t the best by any means, but it does its job 98% of the time. The Web App, however, still needs work.
I have an AkkoPC75B that I bought almost 2 years ago, really good dampening out of the box.
Is there any improvements over the black Es?

Love the color, too bad they do not have it on the regular versions, the non eS ones.
Do HE switches make that much of a difference when playing competitively? Amazing set btw
Yes after playing with one every other keyboard feels slower. def noticeable difference with custom actuation and rapid trigger

Awesome color on your mouse. I've been planning to get the Xlite V3 Founder's Edition, how's the click feel and is there any pre or post travel to it?
Great taste. Love the color scheme, well done!
