Zowie FK1-DW and ZA12-DW Wireless Mice Launch With 4K Polling Rate

Zowie is bringing back large and medium wireless gaming mice with the new FK1-DW and ZA12-DW models. The company targets competitive players who prefer symmetrical shapes for consistent hand placement during gameplay. Both devices feature a 4K polling rate to reduce input lag on supported receivers.

The FK1-DW measures 128.9 by 61.7 by 37.3 mm and includes a lower hump near the front for micro-adjustments. The ZA12-DW measures 125.8 by 41.4 by 61.7 mm and features a higher rear hump to support the palm. Both models maintain the same 55 g weight despite their different form factors.

• Weight: 55 g
• Dimensions (FK1-DW): 128.9 × 61.7 × 37.3 mm
• Dimensions (ZA12-DW): 125.8 × 41.4 × 61.7 mm
• Polling Rate: 4K
• Switch Type: Huano mechanical switches (likely)

Zowie pairs these mice with an Enhanced Receiver that doubles as a charging dock for convenient storage. Industry analysis suggests the devices likely use Huano mechanical switches and a PixArt PAW3950 or PAW3955 sensor, though Zowie has not officially confirmed these internal components.

European gamers can pick up the new mice by the end of July through the official Zowie store or in September on Amazon. US buyers will see availability start in August via the Zowie website and move to Amazon in September. Canadian retailers Memory Express and Best Buy Canada will stock both models starting mid-September.
