After opening the tube you can see that the mat is also covered in the typical clear plastic OEM packaging in order to stop the surfaces becoming damaged inside its metal cocoon on its way to you.

Once this packaging is removed, we get our first look at the lovely Everglide Titan. It has a jet black, silky smooth, cloth surface that just begs to be touched. It also has the same Everglide Titan logo in the bottom right corner of it just to let everyone know what awesome mat you are using.

The mat that I have used for the past few months is the Corepad Eyepad, a lovely smooth mat that is a brilliant size for the way I play my games and operate my pc. It has always served me well, so I thought I would use it to compare the size of these two mats.

As you can see the Everglide Titan is much bigger in both length and breadth. This not only allows for more erratic mouse movements, but also provides a larger area that is very comfortable for your hand to rest on.
