CPI or Counts per Inch is actually a more accurate measurement of the tracking capabilities of a mouse Even though DPI has become the most commonly used unit of measurement Dots per Inch is - strictly speaking - a metric best used for printers digital cameras or monitors That is to say the number of individual points present in series next to one another in the space of an inch CPI on the other hand indicates the number of points recorded by a mouse\'s sensor of the dimension of one inchULTRA-LIGHT CONSTRUCTION &38; SUPERB BUILD QUALITYThe surface of the mouse has a special dry-grip coating This subtle texture ensures gamers maintain a firm grip - a significant advantage over the course of a long or intense competition At the same time the ergonomically optimised shape of the mouse prevents unnecessary stress or tension in the wrist thereby ensuring maximum comfort even amidst competitive online FPS gamingThe XM1\'s design is suitable for gamers with claw palm or finger grip styles The Endgame Gear XM1 has an exceptionally low weight of just 70g while a 185 m cable is also very flexible Silent and low friction the PTFE glides ensure incredibly smooth mouse movements and help to prevent fatigue from repetitive movementsBRAIDED ENDGAME GEAR FLEX CABLEThe XM1 features an all new cable known as &8216;Flex Cord&8217;This unique braided cable is designed to be highly flexible and enables a tight bending radius Cable drag is also minimised as the XM1\'s stress relief is angled upwards This ensures there is enough clearance between the cable and surface As a result mouse movements feel unrestricted and almost wireless-like Connection is made to the mouse via a ferrite bead in order to reduce signal noiseSPECIFICATIONGeneralDimensions 12214 x 3826 x 6581mm (W x H x D)Weight 70gConnection USB 20 Type ACable length 185mColour White (matt)Material Plastic (Chassis) PTFE (Glides) Dry Grip Coating (surface)Ergonomics Layout dextralSupported grip types Claw Grip Palm Grip Finger GripSensorType Pixart PMW3389 High-end sensor (optical)Microcontroller ARM STM32-basedResolution 50 &8211; 16000CPI (adjustable in 50CPI increments)Polling Rate 250 500 1000Hz (adjustable)Acceleration 50GMax speed 1143ms (450IPS)Lift-Off Distance 2mm (default) or 3mm (adjustable via software)ButtonsNumber of buttons 5 (2x top 2x side 1x mouse wheel)Mouse wheel scrolling 2-WayInternal signal processing latency &60; 1msPrimary switches (rightleft) Omron 50M switches (mechanical pre-selected)Operating life 50M clicksManufacturer\'s guarantee 2 years from date of purchase (EU)
