THE COREPAD CERRO LARGE
Corepad is perhaps the latest manufacturer in the field offering a large range of pads from small ones up to gigantic ones. As you can see their packaging needs some improving (don't know if the retail product is shipped the same way) but the pad arrived here without issue.
The Cerro pad comes in 3 sizes, medium, large and xxxl. Today with us we have the large version which measures 425mm in length, 285mm in width and 4mm in height and thus it will not take up your entire desk.
This cloth pad offers enough surface area for even dual monitor use.
Although Corepad is a new player i have to say that the quality of the Cerro is above what i'd expect and just as good as what we see from the leading manufacturers.
Because of its size the Cerro large wouldn't move an inch even if it didn't feature a layer of anti-glide material at the rear.
CONCLUSION
Cloth pads offer large areas but unfortunately lack the tracking precision, glide smoothness featured by aluminum/alloy pads and the same applies for the Cerro Large. Still if you're not a hardcore gamer and just want a large, cost-effective mouse pad then the Cerro Large is a very good overall choice.
THE COREPAD KEIRA MEDIUM
The Keira Medium by Corepad was the first pad in this comparison with a hard plastic surface and so i was quite excited to check it out.
Unfortunately Corepad send us the medium sized pad measuring a total of 315mm in length, 255mm in width and 2mm in height.
The Keira Medium however is in fact larger that the alugraphics gamerPro but i guess after testing the Cerro Large I’d also like to test the Keira Large.
The Keira Medium is only 2mm in height so you shouldn't have any trouble putting part of your keyboard on it (if it doesn't fit on your desk).
Corepad has also used a very effective anti-glide rubber material at the rear of the Keira Medium which didn't allow the pad to move even when pushed.
CONCLUSION
I wasn't certain as to what to expect from the Keira Medium pad and its hard plastic surface but it actually works extreme well and is just slightly worse in terms of tracking precision compared to the gamerPro by alugraphics. Also neither the Sensei nor the Kone[+] could glide as easily on the hard plastic surface so it falls slightly back in overall performance, however it's still easily one of the top 10 pads in this comparison.
THE COREPAD DESKPAD XXXL
Seems that the guys over at Corepad knew I’d like to test the large version of their Keira pad so they made up for that with the Deskpad XXXL cloth pad.
Huge is the only word that came to mind when i first saw the Deskpad XXXL which is quite natural since this pad measures a whooping 900mm in length, 450mm in width and 3mm in height.
With the help of the Hellion gaming mouse it's easier to understand the sheer size of the Deskpad XXXL. The Deskpad also comes in XL and XXXXL sizes.
Since this pad will probably take the entire surface of your desk you shouldn't worry at all about just how thick it is.
The rear anti-glide material is a must for such a long pad.
CONCLUSION
The Deskpad XXXL may not be as accurate as most of the pads in this comparison but its extremely large surface area makes it the ideal choice for professionals and generally people who work and/or play on multiple screens. That also means however that your desk needs to be almost 1m in length, something which may be too much for some people.
