Package

It is stored in a cylindrical case with bold art. The base is made of a very soft material, so it doesn’t curl up even right after opening.

Product Overview

The “TERU x X-Raypad Origin Pro Cerberus” is a mouse pad created in collaboration with Japanese illustrator TERU (@teru_by_m). It is the first mouse pad designed by TERU.

Influenced by “Ghost in the Shell,” TERU has a strong admiration for the worldview of science fiction and cyberpunk, and after much anguish, he created his original character work “REDTAIL.” The theme of this exhibition, “reinforced skeletons,” is one of the motifs included in REDTAIL, and he says he was inspired by the “prosthetic body” of Ghost in the Shell.(Reference: https://www.anicoremixgallery.com/exhibition/teru-exhibition-good-for-health/)

Gliding feeling

The TERU x X-Raypad ORIGIN PRO depicts Cerberus, the guard dog of the underworld in Greek mythology. As the name “reinforced skeleton” suggests, the angular details of the skeleton are meticulously drawn. The sharp fangs and bones are very realistic and impressive, and the contrast between red and blue leaves a strong impression.

The surface texture, which boasts zero delay, is smooth and silky. The texture is finely woven and silky, but it doesn’t fuzz much and seems to have some resistance to humidity.

When gliding, you feel a certain amount of resistance, but it glides lightly. It has high cushioning and good stopping performance, and you feel like it stops exactly without applying force. The base material is polyurethane, which is soft and bouncy.

The feel is similar to the Artisan Zero, but the Zero is slightly rougher, while the TERU x X-Raypad ORIGIN PRO has a smoother surface. The resistance when gliding is slightly greater than the Zero, and the operation is more control-oriented. In terms of stopping performance, the Zero is also easy to stop, but the ORIGIN PRO is better.

Here is no bleeding in the printed design, and the overall quality is very high. Even the fine details are drawn in detail, so it doesn’t feel cheap.

The edges are stitched. It is carefully woven and there are no fraying. The edge height is lower than the sliding surface, so it can be used comfortably without hitting your wrist when operating.

Base

The back side is made of polyurethane base. It is a fairly soft material with excellent cushioning.

The grip of the back side is sufficient, and it will not move unexpectedly even when operating vigorously. There are countless hexagonal pattern bumps, which seem to contribute to a stable operation feeling.

Summary

The “TERU x X-Raypad Origin Pro Cerberus” is a mouse pad created in collaboration with illustrator TERU (@teru_by_m). The skeletal art of Cerberus, which gives a strong impact, is drawn in detail, and the vivid red and black contrast makes it a powerful design.

It is not only stylish but also functional, and the smooth surface provides a light gliding feeling while maintaining a certain level of control. It has excellent control and few quirks in operation, so it is a mouse pad that can be recommended to everyone.

The printing quality is very high and the stitching is carefully done. I don’t see any particular flaws, but the unique design might not appeal to everyone, so if you like the design, this is a product you should definitely try.

The price on the X-raypad official website is about $32-54. The lineup includes two types of SOFT/XSOFT with different base hardness, and three sizes: 360×300 (Large), 450×400 (XL), and 500×500 (XL Square).

There is also a black/orange model without printing, which is slightly cheaper. The one without printing is more control-oriented.

This concludes the review of “TERU x X-raypad Origin Pro Cerberus”.
