The ASUS ROG Harpe Ace Aim Lab Edition is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse. It has a symmetrical shape that ASUS co-developed with esports professionals and that they claim ensures maximum stability and control when flicking and tracking. The lightweight body of this mouse is made of what ASUS refers to as 'bio-based nylon,' and under the hood, it uses a  top-of-the-line sensor and ROG Micro Switches. This mouse also features software integration with a popular aim trainer, Aim Lab. This integration is supposed to help you find the right settings to use with your mouse to suit your play style.

Our Verdict

0.0
Work 

Although it isn't designed specifically for this use, the ASUS ROG Harpe Ace is okay for work. It has impressive build quality and a comfortable shape for most hand sizes. You can connect this mouse via its USB receiver or Bluetooth, and while it doesn't have many buttons, you can program most of them using the customization software. Unfortunately, the scroll wheel lacks L/R tilt inputs and a free-scrolling mode.

Pros
  • Impressive build quality.
Cons
  • Scroll wheel lacks tilt inputs and a free-scrolling mode.
  • Few programmable buttons.
