- Sensor Specifications

Sensor Technology What it is: The combination of light and sensors used to process and detect movement on a surface. Laser mice have the ability to work better on glossy surfaces or glass because of their ability to look deeper into the surface. As a trade-off, the sensor can take too much information off the surface, causing inconsistencies in the movement of the cursor, especially at high speed. Optical (LED) mice generally offer a more consistent cursor movement, but can be hard to use on glass or a glossy surface. When it matters: When gaming, an Optical (LED) sensor usually offers more consistency in the mouse movement. On the other hand, if you're looking for a mouse that works across a wide range of surfaces, laser is usually a better choice.
Sensor Model What it is: The model number or name of the sensor in the mouse. When it matters: For most advanced users and gamers it can be important to choose a sensor they know fits their performance needs.
Works On Glass What it is: The ability to use the mouse on a glass surface. When it matters: If you use a glass desk or table when using your computer mouse.
Minimum CPI (DPI) What it is: The minimum CPI (DPI) the mouse can be set to. CPI (count per inch) or DPI (dots per inch) represent the number of steps the mouse sensor reports when moving one inch. A lower CPI (DPI) has the effect of reducing the distance the cursor moves onscreen when moving the mouse a fixed distance. We display the manufacturer's value. If the CPI (DPI) isn't given by the manufacturer, we test it and round the value to the closest hundredth. When it matters: When your comfortable CPI is low and you want to know if the mouse can achieve it. Good value: 400 CPI (DPI) Score distribution: - SAMPLE - Become an Insider to see distribution charts
Maximum CPI (DPI) What it is: The maximum CPI (DPI) the mouse can be set to. CPI (count per inch) or DPI (dots per inch) represents the number of steps the mouse sensor reports when moving one inch. A higher CPI (DPI) has the effect of augmenting the distance the cursor moves onscreen when moving the mouse a fixed distance. We display the manufacturer's value. If the CPI (DPI) isn't given by the manufacturer, we test it and round the value to the closest hundredth. When it matters: When your comfortable CPI is high and you want to know if the mouse can achieve it. Good value: 2000 CPI (DPI) Score distribution: - SAMPLE - Become an Insider to see distribution charts
CPI (DPI) Adjustment Steps What it is: The minimum gap between each CPI (DPI) adjustment settings. When it matters: When you want to precisely adjust the CPI (DPI) of your mouse to your preference. Good value: 50 CPI (DPI) Score distribution: - SAMPLE - Become an Insider to see distribution charts
CPI (DPI) Variation What it is: The average variation of CPI (DPI), in percent, when moving the mouse 1 inch at fast speed versus at low speed. The CPI (DPI) used for this test is the closest value possible to 1000 DPI (CPI) moved on a 1-inch distance. When it matters: When you're looking for a mouse with consistent cursor movement. Good value: Between -10% and 10% Score distribution: - SAMPLE - Become an Insider to see distribution charts
Minimum Lift Off Distance What it is: The distance between the mouse and the surface where the sensor can't detect movement anymore. Values are in increments of 1.2 mm due to the fact that we use CD thickness to measure it. When it matters: When you're used to a low lift-off distance, switching to a high lift-off distance could be bothersome when you're trying to lift the mouse to re-position it without any unwanted cursor movement. When gaming, a low lift-off distance is usually better so you don't have to lift your mouse high to re-position it without any cursor movement. Good value: 2.4mm or lower Score distribution: - SAMPLE - Become an Insider to see distribution charts
Maximum Polling Rate What it is: Polling rate represents the amount of time per second the mouse reports its position to the computer. When it matters: When playing a fast-paced game, a higher polling rate offers a smoother cursor movement. Good value: 500 Hz or higher
