MSI proudly announces the launch of its latest gaming peripherals: the VERSA 300 ELITE WIRELESS and VERSA 300 WIRELESS gaming mice. Built with a focus on comfort, precision, and performance, these new models are designed to enhance gaming and professional experiences.

VERSA 300 ELITE WIRELESS - Brilliance Meets Comfort
The VERSA 300 ELITE WIRELESS delivers top-tier performance with its advanced PixArt PAW3395DM Optical Sensor, offering up to 26,000 DPI for pinpoint accuracy and speed. With a 1000 Hz / 1 ms polling rate, gamers can experience ultra-responsive input, ensuring every movement is fast and precise. The ELITE model is equipped with OMRON micro switches rated for 60 million clicks, providing a durable and tactile response that enhances gameplay. Weighing just 65 grams, it is engineered for a lightweight and agile feel, perfect for long gaming sessions without causing fatigue. Paired with its ergonomic, symmetrical shape, the mouse is comfortable for all hand sizes and grip styles, ensuring a snug fit for every gamer. Featuring the exclusive MSI Diamond Lightgrip which combines a grippy texture with gorgeous, fully customizable RGB lighting through MSI Center, allowing users to create an immersive, personalized setup.

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced the availability of the ROG Harpe Ace Extreme, an ultralight 47-gram gaming mouse featuring an eye-catching carbon fiber shell that offers extreme maneuverability and outstanding durability. The shape of Harpe Ace Extreme was co-developed with esports professionals to ensure exceptional stability and control when flicking and tracking—especially for players accustomed to playing with a claw grip. Built-in cutting-edge technologies such as the ROG AimPoint Pro optical sensor and ROG Optical Micro Switches ensure absolute pinpoint accuracy and reliability. Additionally, the Harpe Ace Extreme is bundled with a host of premium accessories including a set of Corning Gorilla Glass mouse feet, a hard-shell carrying case, and the ROG Polling Rate Booster.

The ROG Polling Rate Booster, when combined with ROG SpeedNova wireless technology, delivers fast and precise data input at a true 8000 Hz polling rate in both wireless and wired modes. Its plug-and-play design allows users to directly attach the receivers or cables of compatible ROG peripherals.

At Gamescom, Korean peripheral manufacturer Pulsar showed many upcoming releases slated for 2024 and 2025, some of which had to be flown in overnight fresh out of the factory. Aside from updates to existing mice series such as the Xlite, X2, X2H, or X2A, Pulsar also showed wholly new shapes and concepts.

Pulsar XS-1 sensor and in-house firmware
Shared between all new mouse releases from Pulsar will be improvements to the sensor and firmware. Based on PixArt's latest PAW3950 sensor, the custom XS-1 sensor will be capable of CPI adjustment in increments of 10, which would be restricted to steps of 50 on a regular PAW3950. After two years of development time, Pulsar's own in-house developed firmware is also nearing completion, and will feature multiple improvements over the third-party solution used previously. More specifically, refined double-click prevention will be included, slam-click prevention is implemented, and latency has been lowered further across the board. The firmware change will be accompanied by a new software as well, which will be exclusive to all newer models featuring the XS-1.

Among many other releases, ASUS has shown several upcoming peripheral releases at Gamescom, including both the ROG Harpe Ace Mini and the Harpe Ace Extreme, the latter of which had already been announced prior. Interestingly enough, the mouse demonstration units weren't pre-production units, but rather from mass production, hinting at an impending release. While no exact date has been revealed, both the ROG Harpe Ace Mini and the Harpe Ace Extreme indeed are expected to hit shelves within the next few weeks.

Shared between both mice are their basic specifications and internals. Much like on the ROG Keris II Ace, ASUS's latest AimPoint Pro sensor capable of 42,000 CPI sees use, along with ROG Optical main button switches. When asked for comment, ASUS has stated that on their enthusiast mouse releases, optical switches will continue to be preferred over push-fit mechanical switch sockets to save as much weight as possible. Through the ROG Polling Rate Booster, polling rates of up to 8000 Hz can be achieved in wired operation, and up to 4000 Hz in wireless operation. Since the firmware is shared across all models, performance of the ROG Harpe Ace Mini and the Harpe Ace Extreme will closely match the Keris II Ace provided the ROG Polling Rate Booster is used.

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced an exciting array of gaming peripherals designed to give hardcore gamers and esports pros an edge over the competition. New peripherals include the Falchion Ace HFX and Strix Scope II 96 RX Wireless gaming keyboards, ROG Harpe Ace Mini and Strix Impact III Wireless gaming mice, and the ROG Pelta headset.

ROG Falchion Ace HFX gaming keyboard
The ROG Falchion Ace HFX wired gaming keyboard boasts a 65% layout in a 60% keyboard frame, and masterfully incorporates navigation and arrow keys into its design. It features ROG HFX Magnetic Switches that deliver solid keystrokes. The switch actuation points can be customized from anywhere between 0.1- 4.0 mm for instantaneous response. An 8000 Hz polling rate and 0.125 ms response time make the Falchion Ace HFX up to 8X faster than competitor keyboards. Plus, a Rapid Trigger toggle can be activated for the fastest typing response and key repeat rates, without the need for additional software. The Speed Tap mode prioritizes the last input and automatically releases the previous one to eliminate any time gap for counter-strafing and ensure precise aim, especially in FPS games.

The ROG Keris II Ace is an ultralight 54-gram ergonomic tri mode gaming mouse with a shape tested by pro FPS players. Equipped with 42,000-dpi ROG AimPoint Pro optical sensor, ROG Optical Micro Switches and ROG SpeedNova wireless technology, the Keris II Ace levels up on ROG impressive polling rate and click latency via the ROG Polling Rate Booster, which enables polling rates up to 4,000 Hz in wireless mode and up to 8000 Hz in wired mode.

Super-light 54-gram weight with ROG Gaming mouse build quality: Ensures quick and precise movements with minimal handling fatigue. Premium quality continues as a hallmark of ROG mice ensuring outstanding fit, finish and feel. PBT L/R buttons also offer superior durability and resistance against wear and shine over time while also offering subtle texture. ROG Polling Rate Booster: Level up beyond ASUS ROG's already impressive 1,000 Hz polling rate performance & stability. The next level awaits for those demanding the lowest input latency. Attach the ROG Polling Rate Booster to enable polling rates up to 4000 Hz in wireless mode and up to 8000 Hz in wired mode. This new level of ultra-high polling rate performance perfectly complements the latest 240 Hz+ ROG gaming monitors.

Logitech's G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 wireless gaming mouse arrived last September with an MSRP of $159—at the time, cutting-edge peripheral enthusiasts were expecting a mighty upgrade over the ultra popular 2020 iteration. TPU's resident mouse guru—pzogel—had a "hard time making a case for the Pro X Superlight 2," when comparing it to the preceding model. Additionally, the Superlight 2's closest rival—Razer's Viper V2 Pro when combined with their 4K HyperPolling Wireless Dongle—was deemed technologically superior. A November 2023 leak revealed that Logitech was readying an intriguing firmware update—the Superlight 2 was set to be upgraded with a 4 kHz report rate mode.

The launch specification of 2 kHz (maximum) was a disappointing aspect, considering that many cheaper alternatives had already rolled out with higher polling rates (via external dongles). Logitech's latest G HUB software update brings good news for PRO X Superlight 2 users: "we are excited to share a new firmware update for your mouse that will increase your report rate to 4 kHz for free. Once you update the firmware, you'll be able to access the higher report rate in G HUB using your existing wireless dongle. For more information, visit our YouTube channel for an update from Chris Pate." In TPU's late October review, pzogel noted that the 2000 Hz rate: "comes at a price, which is reduced battery life." We hope to see a revisit with the newly implemented 4000 Hz mode tested out.

Cooler Master presented its upcoming MasterKeys hybrid wireless gaming keyboard at CES 2024—the MK770 was debuted at last year's event, but has not reached retail in the iterim period. A variety of chassis and keycap color sets were showcased at CES '23, but that tally has decreased at Cooler Master's 2024 convention exhibit—Space Gray and Macaron are the two consolidated choices. The feature set presented a year ago seems to be largely intact—TPU noted that the MK770 is still advertised as having a hot-swappable mechanical switch system, gasket structure (for noise and vibration reduction), coupled with a noise-absorbing design plus silicone dampers. Kailh Box V2 switches are part of this customizable package, plus US and TC regional versions will get high-purity PBT double shot keycaps, for increased durability and long-lasting colors.

The MasterMouse MM712 Wired Gaming mouse also made a re-appearance at CES 2024. We last witnessed this small + lightweight (sub 50 grams) pointing device at Cooler Master's Computex 2023 booth, alongside its fancier MM712 PRO wireless sibling. The wired version sits alone at this year's event; we are not sure why the PRO version is absent. The MM712 Wired is presented as a permanently Ultraweaved cable-equipped alternative to Cooler Master's existing MM712 hybrid model, although the shell and main buttons have been redesigned to eliminate uncomfortable pinching of skin. The spec sheet confirms that Pixart's top-flight PAW3395 optical sensor has been integrated into the MM712 Wired, granting a maximum 26,000 DPI setting.

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced an arsenal of gaming peripherals and gear at CES 2024. ROG strives to transcend the limits of what's currently possible and its latest offerings are designed to empower gamers with the tools to dominate gaming worlds. These offerings include the ROG Keris II Ace ultralight gaming mouse, ROG Falchion RX Low Profile 65% gaming keyboard, ROG Cetra True Wireless SpeedNova gaming headphones, ROG Carnyx USB condenser microphone, and the ROG Archer ErgoAir Gaming Backpack.

ROG Keris II Ace
The ROG Keris II Ace is an ultralight gaming mouse made for competitive gamers and esports athletes. Designed with input and feedback from esports professionals, the Keris II Ace's sleek, minimalist aesthetic offers the perfect balance of functionality and form. Its environmentally friendly, bio-based nylon shell is derived from renewable castor oil, giving it an overall weight of just 54 grams to significantly reduce wrist fatigue during marathon gaming sessions. The optical micro switches used in the Keris II Ace offer consistent actuation and are extremely durable with a 100-million-click lifespan.

Today marks a very special launch at Glorious. We are thrilled to release four tournament-grade mice, crafted for gaming enthusiasts in need of high performance gear. Introducing the Model O 2 PRO and the Model O 2 PRO 4K/8KHz Edition, as well as the Model D 2 PRO and the Model D 2 PRO 4K/8KHz Edition. In this article, we'll break down how we came to develop these gaming mice, and dive into each of the features for all four devices.

A HIGH-PERFORMANCE GAMING MOUSE, YEARS IN THE MAKING
When we first released the original Model O back in 2019, it took the gaming community by storm. We designed it with direct feedback from gamers worldwide, and we were thrilled with the overwhelmingly positive response it received. Fast-forward a few years later, we hosted a limited edition group buy, featuring an enhanced version of this device: Model O PRO Forge Edition. It was a stripped down version of the original mouse, sporting only the necessary cutting-edge tech for optimal performance at the lightest weight possible. Though we will no longer be hosting group buys, we decided to take this optimized mouse, turbocharge it with next-generation technology (more on this later), and make it one of our mainline products.

Fnatic and Lamzu have partnered to release a 4K Special Edition Wireless Gaming Mouse of the highly anticipated THORN. This new vibrant FNATIC orange colorway of THORN includes the same high-end specs and quality of the base model offered by Lamzu. It's already in use by the professionals—Chronicle, a 3x Valorant Champion, loved the mouse so much that he couldn't wait for the official launch to begin using on the biggest international stage.

FNATIC X LAMZU
As the world's leading e-sports organization since 2004, Fnatic is committed to driving performance and winning trophies. We collaborate with professionals to develop our own line of gaming peripherals, ensuring the best possible experience for gamers. Lamzu is a new company that is making waves thanks to its incredible attention to detail and pursuit of quality and performance. With the introduction of the THORN, Lamzu is poised to continue its well-earned success. Lamzu is also known for its Atlantis mouse lineup. Together, we have extensive experience in product development, design, and a deep understanding of the e-sports scene.

The shape that inspired an esports revolution returns with a new evolution—the Razer Viper V3 HyperSpeed. Featuring our best-in-class technologies and optimized for claw or fingertip grip styles, shake up the meta with a wireless, lightweight mouse that thrives in top-flight competitive play.

MADE WITH AND TRUSTED BY PROS
As esports evolves, so too does our mindset for mouse design. To keep up with latest preference of pros, we've worked with the best and distilled the learnings from previous Viper releases into a new shape anchored in functionality and comfort.

We are thrilled to announce the much-anticipated sequel to the revolutionary Model I mouse: the Model I 2 Wireless. This second generation mouse maintains the same beloved shape and feather lightweight as its predecessor, but features a world of enhancements when it comes to comfort, performance, and customization.

We'll take a deep dive into the Model I 2's vast arsenal of cutting-edge features, and exactly how the second generation gaming mouse has improved. Get ready to experience the most comfortable ergonomic gaming mouse packed with next-gen technology yet still boasts an incredibly lightweight. With nine programmable buttons, customizable side controls, and a whole host of game-enhancing features, the Model I 2 is a highly versatile multi-genre mouse, ideal for Battle Royale, MOBA, MMO, and FPS gamers.

The latest update for Windows 11 appears to bring good news for gamers, as Microsoft is said to have fixed an issue related to stuttering in games that's related to certain gaming mice. The mice in question are mice that support a "high gaming report rate" which is pretty much all higher-end gaming mice today, regardless of manufacturer. What's worse, we're not talking 8000 Hz mice here, but a polling rate of 1000 Hz was enough to trigger the stuttering in some games.

It's unclear if this affected all games, or only some games, but according to Windows Latest, Microsoft has optimised the Windows input stack to be able to handle high report rate mice which is said to have been done by improving "the performance by throttling and coalescing background raw mouse listeners and capping their message rate." As such, the 23H2 update for Windows 11 will become something of a must install for anyone that's gaming on Windows 11, at least if you haven't lowered the polling rate on your mouse.

Hello Razer Community, we've come a long way together and 2023 is no exception. Over the last year, we've unveiled four top-tier Razer mice - Viper V2 Pro, DeathAdder V3 Pro, Basilisk V3 Pro, and Naga V2 Pro. Each of these stellar mice were meticulously crafted to cater to unique preferences and gaming styles, such as our MMO-tailored Naga V2 Pro renowned for its multi-button swappable side plate design.

Last week marked another exciting milestone in our ongoing journey - the completion of our full mouse lineup with the launch of the Razer Cobra line. These innovative additions have already sparked a wave of discussion and received multiple accolades including the Editors Choice award from CGMag, and awarded "The Best" from WindowsCentral.

Razer, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, in partnership with KRAFTON, Inc., a collective of independent game development studios and the publisher of popular PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, announced a highly anticipated collection of PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS-themed gaming gear.

Fantech has uploaded an unboxing video featuring the two new color variations of its Aria XD7 wireless gaming mouse - Sakura Pink and Retro Beige. These new colorways join the original lineup - consisting of standard black and white editions. The pink and beige models were first revealed late last year, and an expected/estimated release date was teased for Q1 2023. Alas, it seems that the fresh product lineup has undergone delays - until now - the Sakura and Retro Beige Aria XD7 models are available to order directly from Fantech's online store or regional retailers.

The Fantech Aria XD7 wireless gaming mouse was first released during last year's Spring season, and the compact powerhouse was immediately hailed as a very decent alternative to its closest rivals - in the shape of Logitech's G305 and Razer's Orochi V2 - the Aria also offered very up-to-date interior components and a low weight - coming in at 59 grams. The flagship Pixart PAW3395 optical sensor (max. 26,000 DPI) provided a significant technical upgrade over similarly egg-shaped mice on the market, and Fantech chose to sell the Aria XD7 at a very reasonable price (MSRP $70). Other notable features include a pair of Kailh GM 8.0 primary switches, a TTC Gold scroll wheel encoder, pure PTFE skates and the inclusion of a generous accessories package.

A well reputed Singaporean electronics store has created a pre-order listing for a bright yellow version of Logitech's G PRO X SUPERLIGHT wireless gaming mouse. The pre-order page seems to have appeared at some point late last week, on e-commerce marketplace Carousell SG, and keen eyed members of the /mousereview subreddit were quick to post about the newly leaked edition.

It was debated whether the listing and images of the model were a fake out, but community members local to Singapore have claimed that the Xtreme Solution store has a great reputation with customers and hardware suppliers alike.

Delux is lining up significant upgrades for its top-of-the-line M800PRO model, which is a not too subtle clone of Razer's Viper series of symmetrical-shaped gaming mice. Enthusiasts have placed the M800's chassis as an intermediate between the full-sized Viper and Viper Mini, so it could be considered as a medium-sized equivalent. In order to match the competition in terms of specifications and features, Delux has sought to upgrade the M800PRO's internal hardware and has also made changes to its externals.

Pixart's PAW3395 has been selected as the new optical sensor, which is a significant generational upgrade over the previous M800PRO iteration's PAW3370. Delux has not confirmed, within its specifications list, whether MotionSync will be enabled by default. The upgraded sensor is capable of running this feature, and the vast majority of gaming mouse manufacturers have chosen to enable it. The PAW3395 is rated for a 26,000 maximum DPI, 650 IPS speed, 50 g acceleration and 1000 Hz polling rate. The lift off distance (LOD) is adjustable between heights of 1 and 2 mm.

On March 14th at 11 AM Central Time, the Model O 2 will be fully in stock and available for purchase on the Glorious web store.
This game-changing mouse has been re-engineered and significantly enhanced with cutting-edge upgrades. Its new design is better, faster, stronger, and more accurate than the original. Available in Wired & Wireless - Model O 2 is stronger, faster, lighter, and more accurate than the original.
It introduces cutting-edge upgrades, including the new BAMF 2.0 optical sensor, an optimized, re-engineered shell, 80 million crisp clicks (300% increase), and much more. The wireless version features dramatically longer battery life and new hybrid (2.4 GHz/Bluetooth) connectivity modes.
Be one of the first to get your hands on this game-changing mouse. We expect high demand and have limited daily fulfillment capacity, so we recommend ordering as soon as possible.The Model O 2 range is available to pre-order via the Glorious Web Store
