2. 🤔 Comparison with other models: OP1 and X2H
- ✅ The X2N is not similar to the OP1, which is flatter and narrower, ideal for fingertip grip.
- ✅ Compared to the X2H, the X2N is an elongated and stretched version, with a rounded hump.
- ✅ The X2N offers a good grip without much tension, unlike the X2H, which is shorter and more aggressive.

3. 🖱️ Click Analysis: Implementation and Possible Improvements
- ⚠️ The clicks use Pulsar optics, but the implementation isn't the best.
- ⚠️ There is a lot of room for pre and post-travel.
- ⚠️ The click experience feels "meh" compared to the Super Strike, especially without rapid trigger.
- ✅ Pulsar needs to implement haptic feedback or an adjustable actuation system with rapid trigger.

4. 👍 Side Buttons and Coating: Quality and Feel
- ✅ The quality of the side buttons is good, although the position of button 4 (mouse 4) is not ideal due to its angle.
- ✅ The coating is Pulsar's standard, not very rubbery, but offers good grip.

5. 🤔 Final Conclusions: Is the Pulsar X2N Worth It?
- ⚠️ The X2N is not revolutionary, but it is different and unique, similar to the ATK Duckbill.
- ✅ The Mini model is narrower, while the Medium could be popular among those who prefer a relaxed grip.
- ⚠️ With a price of $130, Boardzy doesn't enthusiastically recommend it.
- ✅ There are no problems with build quality, sensor, or software.
- ✅ It's an option to consider if the design and shape appeal to you, but it's a niche product.
