Do you think this was even needed?

It's the regular FK with a different sensor is all. They're probably discontinuing all their 3090 sensor mice and updating them with a new name + 3310 sensor.

nobelharvardsAny improvements compared to the FK1 I am using right now? Or just a downsize to extend target market to people with smaller hands?

Is this strange, considering a mouse for smaller hands, the Aurora Ninox was just released as well?

Were they holding back the FK2 just so they could draw some attention away from the Ninox?

On second thoughts, probably not, Zowie is a high quality, high cost brand, Ninox is a high quality, no frills, decent cost mouse.

I thought the original FK was smaller than the FK1. What is the point of the FK2 then?

This is the FK shape with the new sensor as seen on the FK1. The point is to have the smaller shape that some people like updated with the 3310 sensor. :)

It's not like the old models are bad, still have a fk yellow bottom and dont feel a need to upgrade.

I was told this one had different version of Huano switches, so the clicks are going to be lighter than in the previous versions of FK, iirc. ;-)

Does this have a scroll wheel that tilts? It's really useful for push to talk

I'm really happy with this update considering I've had enormous trouble finding a mouse small enough for my hands. Going to purchase one as soon as it's out.

If you already own an old FK and FK1, you can make the FK2 yourself. All the internals are completely compatible

Or replace a sensor in OG FK, they don't hide it though nor call it an FK1 update

I can bhop better with 16 step wheel.

especially on 64tick matchmaking servers (the explanation for why is really retarded, but the fact remains)

so nah you're not the only one, but I doubt many people care
