Professional reviewers praise the Goliathus Extended Chroma for retaining the proven cloth surface and rubber base of the non-RGB model while adding vibrant, non-blinding edge lighting that integrates tightly with Razer's Chroma ecosystem. The main criticism focuses on the inefficient use of a dedicated USB port and the lack of advanced controls on the lighting controller.
Everyday users love the pad's large size, smooth tracking, and the ability to sync lighting with other Razer gear, often rating it near perfect. Recurring complaints revolve around the single USB port dedicated to lighting, minor discomfort from the EL wire, and the pad's relatively narrow width for elbow support.
“Convenience of wireless charging while gaming or working”
“Charging stops if the phone is slightly misaligned”
“RGB lighting lacks brightness control, making it too intense at night”
Ideal for users fully invested in Razer hardware who prioritize ecosystem sync over pad width.
Professional reviewers praise the GIM pad as a standout premium desk mat, highlighting its rare 15 W Qi fast-charging, ultra-smooth surface that yields low-friction mouse tracking, and thoughtful design details such as memory-retained RGB modes and a waterproof, non-slip base.
Everyday users consistently commend the convenience of wireless charging built into a spacious mouse pad and the eye-catching RGB lighting, while recurring complaints focus on the need for precise phone placement, the inability to adjust lighting brightness, and the omission of the required power adapter.
