G-Wolves HSK Pro 4K: Real Users on the Tiniest Competitive Mouse

The period of getting into fingertip is quite long before you get used to it, it's very beneficial tho ime. One thing of note is to keep using your entire arm even though the mouse can be moved just by the fingers, the best mouse control is still achieved by proper use of all 3 muscle groups.

Damn, now this is the type of content I come here for. Great write up/review!

Absolutely, the 3 grams will feel like moving a continent. You need to work out your fingers before you get it just to not cramp up.

Can agree, best mouse I've used to date!

As someone who owns the entire HSK line. No, you can't really feel the difference between 26g and 29g. You can feel the difference between the regular HSK and them though. As much as I'd love to recommend the 4k though. You would be charging it a lot on that setting. At least once a day, if not more depending on how much you game. I have mine set to 2k and it makes a huge difference in battery surprisingly enough though.

I'm curious if someone have been using this mouse for 6 months or more? I've heard one said it made his hand cramp up. I'm kinda wanting to buy this mouse but all reviews I've found is from people using it for just 2 weeks or less. Do those who buy this mouse having it as main mouse for many months or do they go back to normal shapes?

In terms of small fingertip grip mice currently on market, it's probably the best. I have my own, luckily with no bad QC issues, and I really like it a lot. You just gotta hope you don't get bad QC so you don't have to contact G-Wolves support. Also software's a little bad looking, but it works.

hsk is the best ftip mice ever. Bad thing about gwolves, is that instead of continuing evolving with them and making even a little bit narrower to go to that 'stylus / pen writing precision', now they are doing them but wider, which feels awful for a ftip mice.

I used fingertip for a few years. The issues with tracking will get better over time as you develop better technique, but the reality is having a point of contact for extra stability so you can use your wrist more reactively is what almost every single top aimer on the planet uses for reactive tracking situations. Fingertip for smooth tracking and precision tracking is unbeatable, but in games like tac fps where stability is more important, fingertip will always be a more difficult grip style.

Only difference is polling rate basically, so I would go for ace since 4k is gimmick imho and these already have very small batteries.

My hands are at least 20/10 so I'm sure this will work for you. It doesn't feel like I'm cramped or struggling for space whatsoever. In fact having your fingers/thumb lower in theory is ideal because you can more easily use them as a brake/added friction if needed — and my fingers aren't accidentally dragging on the pad either.

Sitting in a drawer because the middle click stopped working and their discord support is atrocious.

I was an early adopter for the HSK 4K when it launched (I was part of the batch that came with spicy batteries) and hadn't used ftip before. I pretty much adjusted within a few hours, it felt incredibly natural to me. Being able to move your arm for big movements and moving the mouse within your hand for small adjustments is so incredibly helpful.

I'd like to have the hsk pro, but so expensive new unless you find a deal.

I fingertip grip already my lamzu Maya x. Been wanting to try out a fingertip mouse but the price of them is making me hesitate.

No, you can't tell the weight difference. 4k is nice but not game changing, I'd still recommend the 4k.

I just got mine, it is usb-c.

While I enjoyed the increased flick speed of fingertip mice similar to HSK users' experiences, I noticed the lack of stability between my main two anchor points was forcing my wrist to feel somewhat locked. The grip style demands really consistent technique.

There's the Zaunkoenig mice which are roughly the same size as the HSK, but different shape, and they are WILDLY expensive. It may not look like it from images, but the HSK Pro is significantly smaller than any other available mouse. The Orochi is massive in comparison.

I own a first batch copy of the HSK Pro and absolutely love it. Outside of replacing the faulty batteries this batch came with, it's had zero issues with QC or durability as my main daily user since receiving it. The software is pretty barebones and ugly, but functional. The mouse itself is a great performer, though, and very comfortable for pure fingertip use.

If you're from a country like me who uses special characters like æøå then the firmware software won't open. Then you need to change regional settings in windows for it to actually work. And it's quite crucial to firmware update it, or you might ruin the batteries. But yeah it's an amazing mouse, despite the software issues that people face.

Until the M3K hits the market, the HSK Pro will definitely be my main mouse. Had it for 5 months or so and absolutely love it. Can't ever go back to my old brick mouse. It has a steep learning curve but the highest skill ceiling imo. Also you tend to grip it pretty consistent compared to traditional mice which you can grip in many different ways.

This mouse is straight fire, if you can even call it that. It's just a platform for my fingers to cling to. It just stays out of the way, not a single part of my hand other than my fingers feel this mouse. I beat my recent kovaaks score on cold boot. I was consistent with it.

I'm happy with it, I just had to lube the scroll wheel, because it was squeaky. Actually wired with removed battery for 24 grams.

I run the HSK 4K and the Fenrir Asym looks like it might address the ring and pinky finger placement issues that I have with the HSK, but the HSK has what I consider to be easily the best mouse switches on the planet and I'm not sure I can move to anything that isn't as crisp feeling without missing them. Seriously, Zippy DF3-P1L1's are so sick.

I almost pulled the trigger on the m5 but had this randomly pop up on fb marketplace for basically the same price as the m5. I really like the mouse, my only real gripe is the placement of the side buttons. I'm used to hitting them with the middle joint on my thumb but it's just harder with this mouse. No other complaints though.

The hsk pro is a really high quality product though.

They are overpriced but you are also paying for a better mouse. It's smaller and quite a bit lighter. The only reason to ever consider keychron is the price. If both mice were the same price then it's obvious which one is better. It's still personal preference and some people would like the keychron but objectively speaking there's a reason the hsk is pricier.

I'm using it 1 year, I really like this mouse, but side buttons are hard to click while aiming because I'm using glass skates. Pressing wheel causes strange sound, but I don't mind it. Each version of software is worse and worse — it is the ugliest software I've ever seen. They use letters for debounce time, LOD, and wheel debounce. Parameters A B C D — seriously I never saw more cheap UI design.

I'm here because I'm searching around about the scroll wheel. Mine is far from light — one of the least satisfying mouse wheel clicks I've ever used. Mushy, and hard to press. I'm gonna try taking it apart to see what I can do.

I am very tempted to try out this mouse, but the potential cost of shipping it back to China in case of a return/refund sort of prohibits me from ordering it from their website.

I'm using the HSK Pro 4K and after 3 weeks decided to make it my main. It definitely makes me aim better and that's the deciding factor. I use fingertip grip and despite never holding such a tiny mouse, I didn't need any time adjusting — it felt natural from the moment I first held it.

I've been using this mouse for over a year now and still have never got it to update the drivers. Nothing I try works. The mouse wheel also scrolls up instead of down and vice-versa almost every time. But it's still the best mouse shape I've ever had for my small hands so I just roll with it.

It has usb-c now! Now I'm tempted to get one, but I like the fenrir pro weight and the sides where the grip tape is not necessary. Maybe wait half a year to see if they announce a real new upgrade version. Anyway, the USB-C alone is a big upgrade.

Using it on 1khz, near 3-4 days per 4 hours with stock battery. PAW3395 eats a lot vs 3390. But charging is fast enough.

I'm quite opposite when switching to fingertip. My tracking is way more fast and accurate while my flicking is worse. I play Overwatch 2 mainly and I notice my aim on Ashe and McCree are worse while Bastion and 76 are way better. Looking forward to trying out HSK soon.

I also cramped up on the HSK. Fenrir Asym has completely solved it for me, and my grip is much more relaxed now. My mouse control is also way better.

I asked their support a few questions by email, and to my great surprise they told me that from now on the mouse was equipped with USB-C on the version on sale on their online shop.

We can't detect differences below 10% on average. So for example 90g vs 100g will feel the same to most people. As such, you won't feel the 3g difference, but those grams will still make a difference in your gameplay even if just a tiny amount — still less to accelerate when making any movements.

I have one, it's amazing. My only gripe is the battery life needs to be charged at least once every two days if I game constantly. But other than that it is a really good pick for its shape.
