The polling rate of the Pixart 3389 sensor is 12,000Hz. That said, you can increase the DPI and lower the mouse speed in your operating system to increase sensitivity without the typically difficult handling of high DPI modes. What that really means is that you can move the mouse 1/16,000 of an inch (0.0015875mm) and it will detect that movement, provided you have the DPI set to 16,000.Ī higher DPI setting allows for greater speed, but can sometimes affect the accuracy due to user error, because of this, it becomes a personal preference. That is, the resolution that it scans at is 16,000 units per inch (why we still use inches for anything, I don’t know). Marsback Zephyr Pro uses the Pixart 3389 sensor which is capable of 16,000 DPI. I like its lighter weight and the textured surface has grown on me. But I really do enjoy this mouse and it feels good ergonomically speaking. Marsback Zephyr Pro Specifications PerformanceĪt the expense of being repetitive, I’m only a casual gamer, so my performance metrics will be entirely anecdotal and subjective. This is especially true in lower light and it imparts a certain sophistication that is very appealing. Because it’s mostly downward-facing, the channel is very difficult to see until it’s lit. There are two additional buttons at the bottom of the mouse, one for enabling and disabling the fan and the other for enabling and disabling the lighting.Īround the bottom of the mouse, there is a light-diffusing channel for the LEDs with the exception of the front face where the cable feeds in. The Zephyr Pro features both back and forward buttons, which have become customary on most computer mice, as well as a center button that is used for changing the DPI. In any case, I found the shape of the mouse to be easily adapted to and has become very pleasant as my daily driver.

The mouse is of medium size lengthways without a pronounced arch as some have, but I feel that it’s a bit thinner widthways than most of its length, but again, I’m not a gaming enthusiast or prosumer. This somewhere in-between betrays both aesthetics.

It’s not because they are visible, but because I feel that there should have been a commitment to either hiding the componentry or a commitment to flaunting it.
