Hyperlight X from Hitscan available October 28, aimed at competitive gamers who value speed and accuracy. This is important because it's a mouse that replaces older internal components with faster response times and polling rates. This means there's now another option for people who want a lightweight wireless mouse that uses modern sensor technology.
Hyperlight X launches with 8kHz polling and SPDT switches
The Hyperlight X is a wireless gaming mouse that uses the PixArt PAW 3950 sensor. This is the sensor that replaces the PAW 3395 that was used in previous Hyperlight mice. This mouse is designed to focus on providing reliable tracking performance during high-speed gaming.
Specifications
- Sensor: PixArt PAW 3950
- Switches: SPDT
- Polling Rate: 8kHz (dongle included)
- MCU: Nordic nRF54L15
- Weight: 35-37g
Hitscan has used SPDT switches in the Hyperlight X to decrease the actuation distance and click latency. It comes with an 8kHz polling rate dongle as the default which means you can use 8kHz polling without any additional accessories. It has a Nordic nRF54L15 MCU and uses a 200mAh battery.
The weight for the Hyperlight X ranges from 35-37g. The exact weight depends on whether you use full-sized or dot foot skates. Firmware updates are also being used to fix DPI downshift and smoothing issues to make sure the sensor performs reliably.
The Hyperlight X will be available globally on October 28. Hitscan is framing this release as an upgrade over their previous wireless mice. It's a mouse that's defined by having the PAW 3950 sensor and 8kHz polling as its key hardware feature.
