The Lofree Hypace is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse and the first mouse released by Lofree, a company best known for their wireless keyboards. This mouse has a magnesium skeleton design with a plastic shell on top. This design helps ensure the mouse is very lightweight but rigid. However, it also means the internals are open to collecting dust and debris. It uses a flagship PixArt PAW 3950 sensor, and you can customize various settings using Lofree's web-based or downloadable software.
Our Verdict
The Lofree Hypace isn't designed for work use, but it's perfectly satisfactory for it. Its build quality is impressive, though the open body design leaves it more exposed to dust, debris, and potential damage from liquids or small objects, so it's not ideal for carrying in a bag. While it's intended to connect wirelessly using its included 2.4GHz receiver (which is fairly large), it also supports Bluetooth, which is more convenient for work since it doesn't require the receiver and is more energy efficient. Unfortunately, it lacks other productivity features such as gesture controls, tilt scroll inputs, and free scrolling.
Impressive build quality.
Supports Bluetooth connectivity.
Body design leaves the interior open to collecting dust and debris.
Lacks productivity features like tilt inputs or free scrolling.
The Lofree Hypace is an outstanding FPS gaming mouse. It's extremely lightweight and has a distinctive, elongated egg-shaped body that's surprisingly accommodating to a wide range of hand sizes and grip types. It also has exceptionally low and consistent click latency and sensor performance and supports a maximum polling rate of up to 8000Hz. Its build quality is also impressive, although the polycarbonate outer shell is a bit flexible with moderate pressure, and our unit arrived with a loose battery we needed to glue back into place. The mouse feet, while offering a good gliding experience, are underwhelming compared to the stock feet on many competing wireless mice at a similar price point. Lastly, this mouse's open body design, while quite striking and distinctive, also leaves the body relatively vulnerable to collecting dust and debris or possibly damage from liquids and small objects, though this shouldn't be a concern for normal desktop use.
Impressive build quality.
Extremely lightweight.
Exceptionally low and consistent click latency.
Exceptional sensor performance.
Maximum polling rate of 8000Hz.
Body design leaves the interior open to collecting dust and debris.
Feet are dyed PTFE and don't glide as smoothly as the higher-quality feet found on similar wireless models.
The Lofree Hypace is good for MMO or MOBA gaming, though it doesn't offer as many side buttons as a dedicated MMO mouse. Its raw performance is exceptional and more than suitable for competitive play. The stock skates glide well but compare poorly to the higher-quality skates found on most mice at this price point. The build quality is impressive overall, although there's some minor shell flexibility, and our unit arrived with a loose battery. The open-body design also leaves the interior more exposed to dust and debris. Finally, while the elongated egg shape is accommodating for a wide range of hand sizes and grip types, it isn't as comfortable for long sessions as more comfort-focused, ergonomic designs.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants
The Lofree Hypace is available in three colorways: Crayon Grey, Jet Black, and Ghost. We bought and tested the Crayon Grey model, and you can see our unit's label here.
All colorways use the same internal components except the Ghost variant, which uses optical switches for the main buttons instead of mechanical switches. This doesn't meaningfully affect performance. However, optical switches are generally more durable compared to mechanical switches, which are more prone to developing double-click issues over long-term use.
Popular Mouse Comparisons
The Lofree Hypace is the company's first lightweight gaming mouse and originally launched as a Kickstarter campaign before moving into full production. Its distinctive look draws inspiration from the design of helmets and uses a lightweight but very rigid magnesium alloy skeleton with a polycarbonate outer shell. Its shape closely resembles the Logitech G309 LIGHTSPEED, with some similarities to the Logitech G303 Shroud Edition. It has an elongated body that tapers at both the front and back and represents a fairly unconventional design that stands out in a market that's lately been flooded with very similar safe, symmetrical shapes.
Its remarkably good click latency and sensor performance, combined with its extremely low weight, put it in the same competitive bracket as leading FPS options like the Razer Viper V3 Pro and the Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2. Its only major drawback is price. It's a bit more expensive than these flagship models from the leading brands, yet it carries only a one-year warranty compared to the two-year coverage from Razer and Logitech. If you aren't interested in its shape or standout aesthetics and your priority is pure performance, you can get similar or even slightly better results from significantly cheaper options like the Scyrox V8 or the MCHOSE L7 Ultra.

The Razer Viper V3 Pro and Lofree Hypace are both lightweight wireless mice with similarly exceptional competitive performance, but they differ in look and shape. The Razer has a more straightforward, low-profile design with a mid-size hump and straighter sides that suit a wider range of hand sizes and grip types. It also has noticeably higher-quality mouse feet and better build quality overall. On the other hand, the Lofree also has a low-profile silhouette but uses a narrower, elongated egg-like shape with more prominent side buttons. Both weigh about the same, though the Lofree is slightly lighter and uses a magnesium skeleton with open shell sections that expose the interior, making it more prone to dust and debris than the Razer's fully enclosed plastic shell.
The Lofree Hypace and the Logitech G309 LIGHTSPEED are wireless gaming mice with fairly similar shapes. The Lofree is aimed at high-level competitive play. It's much lighter, offers stronger raw performance, and supports polling rates up to 8000Hz. It's also slightly longer with more tapered ends. However, it has some minor build quality issues, and its open-body design exposes parts of the interior, making it more prone to dust and debris. In comparison, the Logitech is a more versatile option suited for travel or a mix of work and gaming. It's a bit smaller but significantly heavier, and it uses replaceable AA batteries instead of a rechargeable internal battery. Its performance isn't quite as good as the Lofree's, but it's still perfectly adequate for casual and even competitive play.
The MCHOSE L7 Ultra and Lofree Hypace offer similarly exceptional raw gaming performance suitable for competitive play, but their designs differ significantly. The MCHOSE has a straightforward look with a solid plastic body and a more conventional symmetrical shape that works best for claw or fingertip grip with medium or smaller hands. The Lofree, by contrast, has a more distinctive elongated egg-like shape suited to roughly the same hand sizes but still mainly for claw or fingertip use. It features a magnesium alloy skeleton covered by a plastic outer shell, and while visually striking, this open-style design makes the Lofree more vulnerable to collecting dust and debris.
The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2c and the Lofree Hypace are very lightweight wireless gaming mice that are roughly the same size and weight. They both also offer similarly exceptional raw performance for competitive gaming. That said, the Logitech has a comparatively much more subdued look and straightforward shape that's more broadly and easily accommodating to a wider spectrum of grip types for small or medium-sized hands. The Lofree, on the other hand, has a very distinctive look with a magnesium skeleton design covered by a plastic outer shell. Its shape resembles an elongated egg with tapered ends and is a bit more restrictive in its hand size and grip type accommodation.
Test Results
This mouse has a distinct design and comes in three colorway options. The Crayon Gray color model we tested has bright orange accents on the side buttons and a matte grey plastic shell.
The Ghost colorway resembles the Crayon Gray model with its orange side buttons, but it has a translucent shell.
The Jet Black colorway has dark gray or black components, and its shell is also translucent.
None of the models have RGB lighting zones, but each has a white LED on the front to indicate charging and a blue LED on the rear to show receiver connection.
The Lofree Hypace has a roughly medium-sized, egg-like shape with a fairly low profile. It's most similar to the Logitech G903 LIGHTSPEED and, to a lesser degree, other egg-shaped mice such as the Fantech Aria XD7 or Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED, although the Lofree is noticeably longer with a wider backside. Its tapered front and back are reminiscent of the Logitech G303 Shroud Edition, though the Lofree is narrower and has much straighter sides.
This mouse has impressive build quality. It uses a magnesium alloy skeleton with plastic pieces that form the outer shell. Lofree indicates that these shell pieces are made of polycarbonate (PC), which is a somewhat more expensive plastic compared to ABS plastic, more commonly used for mouse bodies. PC tends to be more rigid at equal thickness and is easier to produce in translucent colors. The finish is a bit slippery compared to more textured gaming mice, but it still offers decent grip, especially as your hands warm up during use.
There's no creaking when squeezing the mouse and no rattling when shaking it. The plastic panels do flex slightly under moderate pressure, though this doesn't cause any issues during normal use.
It's worth noting that the various open spaces in the body leave the interior exposed to dust and debris, and there's some potential risk of accidental component damage if you tend to keep liquids or small objects on your desk. That said, this is unlikely to cause any issues during normal desktop use.
Unfortunately, when we received the mouse, the battery came loose inside the body after a day of testing. Due to the open spaces between the outer shell pieces, we were able to glue it back down without opening the mouse. We haven't seen reports of this issue from other owners online.
This mouse is a bit front-heavy, which won't be an issue for most, but is worth keeping in mind if you use a very low sensitivity and frequently pick up and set down your mouse to perform wide sweeps. It may impact where you need to hold the mouse to do those maneuvers.
The Lofree Hypace is roughly medium-sized but slightly longer than many medium-sized mice. Its body tapers toward both the front and rear, and despite the openings in the shell, it's quite comfortable, with natural finger placement for a wide range of hand sizes. Lofree specifies that it was designed primarily for small to medium hands, but we found it to be a bit more accommodating than expected for larger hands due to its length.
Palm grip is possible but less feasible for smaller hands. The buttons protrude a bit from the body, making them easy to reach for all grip types, but this may also increase the risk of accidental clicks for some grip types, though it's something you'll likely be able to train away with muscle memory.
The left and right click buttons are fairly narrow, especially towards the front edge of the mouse. While this isn't likely to cause any issues except for those with extra-large hands, it may take some time to build muscle memory if you're used to a wider surface area and a different finger placement.
The Lofree Hypace has a 250 mAh capacity battery with an advertised working time of up to 80 hours using a 2.4GHz connection and up to 100 hours using a Bluetooth connection.
The Lofree Hypace includes a thick braided cable with gold connectors. Unfortunately, it retains some kinks from its packaging, and it's fairly easy to fray.
The feet are made of PTFE with a dark dye additive. They glide smoothly on mousepads and directly on desks with minimal drag and friction noise, but don't glide as smoothly as higher-quality pure PTFE feet found on many competing wireless options. That said, this doesn't have a major impact on gliding experience due to the mouse's light weight.
The Grey Crayon color variant we tested uses Kailh GM White Blade switches, as does the Jet Black color variant.
The Ghost colorway variant uses unnamed optical switches instead of Kailh GM White Blade switches. See the Differences Between Variants section for more details.
You can reprogram all buttons using the configuration software, except for the underside button, which cycles CPI settings. There's also a power and connectivity switch on the underside.
The Lofree Hypace has exceptionally low and consistent click latency performance.
We performed this test using the following settings:
- Polling rate: 8000Hz
- Debounce: 0 ms
- Long Distance Mode: On
- Highest Performance: 15 min
The Lofree Hypace's sensor consistently tracks your movements exceptionally well with no significant speed variation or tracking issues.
The Lofree Hypace has outstanding sensor latency. Its sensor reacts extremely quickly to your inputs without any perceptible delay.
The above test results are achieved using the mouse's maximum polling rate of 8000Hz.
We also conducted supplementary testing at 8000Hz wired and 8000Hz wireless with Motion Sync enabled. For more details about Motion Sync, see the Configuration Software section.
The available polling rate settings on the Lofree Hypace are 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1000Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, and 8000Hz.
The Lofree Hypace doesn't have a fully centered sensor position. It sits slightly forward. A forward sensor makes the mouse feel like it rotates around a point closer to your fingers rather than your wrist, which some people prefer, especially on lower-profile shapes.
The Lofree Hypace has a very thin scroll wheel, but its diameter is slightly larger than what you find on most gaming mice. It's made of plastic with a grippy rubber coating. Scrolling feels precise and is fairly quiet, with clearly defined steps. The middle click has a stable, crisp actuation that requires a moderate amount of force to actuate.
Lofree offers both a web-based and downloadable client for customization. The interface is confusing to navigate, but it provides a good range of advanced settings similar to other high-end gaming mice, including debounce time, macro recording, sensor sleep timers, and the ability to toggle Motion Sync. Motion Sync is a sensor feature that synchronizes the sensor's SPI read timing with the mouse's polling events, which can produce more consistent in-game motion at the cost of a very small increase in motion latency.
The software also includes a Highest Performance setting on a radial dial, but it's entirely unclear what this feature is supposed to do. The dial runs from 15 minutes to 10 seconds and also shows these values as 15' to 10" in the center, which may relate to the Long Distance Mode setting, although nothing in the software confirms this. We've asked Hypace for clarification and will update the review if they provide us with more details.
