Page 2 - QPAD CT
QPAD|CT is rolled-up and packed in a clear cylindrical casing. On one hand this is good, since it allows you to to see the product before you decide to buy it. It also makes moving it around (for LAN parties). But on the other hand, the casing isn't that strong and provides insufficient protection and that we're not used to, not for this class of products at least:
Here are the specifications of of the whole QPAD|CT pad family:

We got the big variant in black and thickness of 4mm. QPAD|CT is a hybrid pad, meaning it has a textile base and polymer cover made by the е Hybratek technology. This is clearly noticeable even at first sight. The surface is extremely smooth and at the same time sturdy, while the base is quite soft. The graphics on the surface is part of the stylized “Q” , matched in close colors (respectively White or Black). It looks very nice, while at the same time is well balanced and doesn't stick out too much. The quality of print is impressive, apparently on a level unthinkable for a ordinary pad:
An additionally in the package you get the well known “Glidz” Teflon mouse feet. In this bundle they are five of them already cut. That would surely save some effort on your behalf, alas not many of the newer gaming mice use feet with that form. Yes, if you have invested in a good mouse, you'll probably have no use of them, so in our opinion uncut Teflon strips would be much better:
The bottom of QPAD|CT has a layer of rubber in order to stick better to the surface you use it on:
QPAD|CT is composed of three layers, the outer ones we mentioned already, the middle one we have not. It is from a porous materoial that is responsible for the soft feel from the surface:
