<p><br /><span> Razer is a </span><span><span>high-end computer gaming peripherals company</span></span><span> that has been supplying gamers all over the globe with peripherals ranging from</span><span><span>&nbsp;h</span></span><span><span>igh performance mice, sleek &amp; smooth mouse pads, crisp sounding audio devices and &lsquo;Hyperesponse&rsquo; keyboards.<br /> </span><span><br /> </span><span>Today we will be looking at Razer&rsquo;s latest edition to their soft mousepad family, the Razer Goliathus.<br /> <span>&nbsp;</span><br /> The Razer Goliathus comes in two different surface types, Control and Speed, with three different sizes to choose from, small, medium and large. In this particular review we will be taking a look at the Goliathus <strong>Control</strong> edition.</span></span></p>
<p><br /><span><span> <br /><br /><span><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span>In depth look </span><span><br /> </span></span></strong></span><span>At first look we can see the Goliathus is entirely black, except for the three headed snake logo (which Razer imprint on all their products) situated at the top right of the pad, and the Goliathus logo on the bottom left. These logos do not get in the way whatsoever as they are the made of the same material the pad is.<br /></span></span></span></p>

<p><span>Taking a closer look, you&rsquo;ll notice the surface of the pad is covered in a textured weave pattern. This textured weave is the key to the mousepad&rsquo;s smoothness, and also assists the fast-paced nature of many games of today.&nbsp;</span></p>

<p><br /><span>The thickness of the Goliathus is exactly the same as that of the Razer Mantis, and the SteelSeries Qck Heavy.</span><br /><span><span><span>&nbsp;</span></span></span></p>

<p><span><span><span><span><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span>Performance </span></span></strong></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span> </span></span></strong></span><span>After using the Goliathus with several different mice at both high and low sensitivities, I did not encounter any sort of skipping or jumping. The tracking is on par with other top mousepads such as the Mantis, the Qck, and the 5L. Something that I did notice while using the Goliathus which separates it from the other pads is the aforementioned textured weave. This special weave enables your mouse to move very quickly while not sacrificing precision, and the performance will become even better if you have Teflon mouse feet attached. Something else to add is that while I am reviewing the largest of the 3 available sizes, it is still not quite as big as the Mantis and SteelSeries Qck+. So people who use a very low sensitivity and need that extra bit of space should take this into consideration when purchasing.&nbsp;<br /></span></span><span><span><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span><br />Conclusion<br /> </span></span></strong></span><span>The Razer Goliathus is great mousepad, although slightly smaller than it&rsquo;s predecessor, it provides better overall glide and control than the Razer Mantis. Other than b</span><span>eing a bit smaller and having to pick out the crumbs etc from between the weave pattern, using this mousepad proved to be a pleasant experience. If you&rsquo;re looking to replace your old mousepad for something bigger with better glide and control, I&rsquo;d recommend taking a look at the Razer Goliathus <strong>Control</strong> edition.<br /></span><br />Thanks for reading and I hope the review helps.
