When I received the XTRACPADS Logic mouse pads I didn't really think that there could be a performance difference between different types of mouse pads. After using the XTRACPADS Logic mouse pads I'm still slightly skeptical as to whether or not there actually is a difference in performance. However, it definitely feels like there is a performance difference. Moving the mouse on the XTRACPADS Logic surface felt a lot smoother and a lot faster.
