World's First 'True 8K' Ultra-Wideband Gaming Mouse Debuts with Unique Glowing Dongle

A groundbreaking gaming mouse promises less interference with its innovative features.

The innovative Elecom VM800 is on the market, touted as the world’s first ’true 8K’ gaming mouse featuring ultra-wideband (UWB) technology. This mouse not only boasts a striking glowing dongle but also claims to mitigate interference commonly associated with 2.4 GHz wireless connections.

Key Features:

  • True 8K Polling Rate: Updates occur at precisely the same interval on both ends of the connection, enhancing responsiveness compared to traditional setups.
  • Less Interference: Utilizing UWB may lead to fewer connection dropouts than typical 2.4 GHz gear, a crucial aspect for multi-device environments.

Technical Specs:

  • Sensor: PixArt PAW3950
  • Maximum DPI: 30,000
  • Speed: 750 IPS
  • Weight: 59 grams
  • Battery Life: 100 hours at 1,000 Hz polling

While it features impressive specs, its effective range is limited to 1.5 meters, making it more suitable for desktop use rather than couch gaming. Currently, it is priced at approximately 19,980 yen in Japan, equivalent to around $136.
