Zowie gear reveal EC eVo series of Gaming mice

Zowie introduced the EC-series back in July 2010. The sensor being used in the recently released ZOWIE AM mouse, an ambidextrous mouse for competitive gaming is going to be used in the new EC eVo series of gaming mice. The overall feeling of the new sensor is not the same as that of the old EC-series mice but they should both provide flawless tracking.

The sensor used in the EC eVo is free of prediction. Prediction is a term widely used in competitive gaming to define if the sensor helps the user even out straight lines. Some like prediction and thinks that it helps them aim, others think that prediction is disabling them from having 100% control of their cursor – so if you are used to the original EC-series, there will be a slight need for adjusting to the way the new sensor works.

While the shape of the EC eVo will be the same from the EC1 and EC2, small changes have been made to the overall design. For starters the EC eVo will only be available in a fully rubberized black version, but still in two sizes, EC1 eVo and EC2 eVo.The original EC-series will become unavailable as the stock currently remaining with distributors and retailers are being sold out. The EC eVo will be available in all regions in beginning of April.
