The Razer Strider Hybrid is a simple and effective pad that measures in at 17-5/8 inches by 15-11/16 inches, making it one of the larger pads in the class that doesn't fall into the extended class. The pad boasts a water-resistant polyester top sheet, and a stitched edge to help prevent delamination issues with its rubberized anti-slip bottom. We would classify the Strider as a speed pad, though it is on the lower end of the category as it doesn't glide as well as others that fall into the category &mdash; there is a noticeable degree of effort to get the mouse gliding at top speed. Yet, once the mouse is moving there is little resistance. We found this to be a fair trade-off given the pad's above-average stopping power. 
While we don't have much criticism for the Strider Hybrid, if we were pressed on the matter, we would say that it was a little noisy with the volume tending to increase with the speed of the movement. It wasn't bad but once we heard the noise, we had a hard time not noticing it. Additionally, we were concerned that the surface material might delaminate and produce bubbles, though we didn't encounter any by the end of our testing. Minor gripes aside, we liked that the pad came in a large box that prevented creasing and allowed it to lay flat within the first day of testing. Moreover, the logo on the pad comes in the form of a tag that is attached on both sides preventing it from getting in the way. Lastly, if you like this pad but want it in an extended version, you're in luck because it has multiple size options.
