That’s not too much of an issue if you don’t plan to move it a lot, but be careful not to keep it rolled up too long when travelling. Our only gripe is that, because this mouse pad is so thick, it can take a bit of extra time to flatten out when you take it out of the box. A non-slip rubber base also keeps this mouse pad firmly rooted to your desk, and it didn’t budge no matter how hard I moved my mouse during testing. Decoration is light, with a small SteelSeries logo in the bottom left corner being the only thing to distract you from your game. SteelSeries also makes a standard QCK mouse pad that’s a 1/3rd as thick, although we feel that the slight extra cost is worth the durability and stable surface you get with the Heavy.īoth the regular QCK mouse pad and the QCK heavy come with a micro-woven cloth that makes for easy but precise sliding and is hand washable. In exchange, though, it’s far more affordable and has a seamless border. The SteelSeries QCK Heavy offers many of the same benefits as the QCK Prism, minus the RGB and the reversible surface.
Remember, RGB zones are different than “RGB LEDs." How many RGB zones do you want? An RGB zone is individually customizable via software, so if you want to set it to show more than one effect simultaneously, make sure you get a mouse pad with at least 2 RGB zones.
