Reliable wireless connection built for
lag-free play. A wireless mouse that requires a dock to
recharge is a mouse that's out of circulation. That's not how
the X8 plays. When it's fully charged - after about three
hours -the mouse offers you more than 30 hours of wireless
play. The transceiver provides a 2.4GHz wireless connection
technology, giving you lag-free play.
And when the battery gets low?
Hook the mouse up to the power management system and your
mouse starts charging, allowing you to play and recharge at
the same time. The magnetic connector snaps securely into
place.

Multipurpose Transceiver. The
USB-connected transceiver serves three purposes. It provides
the 2.4GHz wireless connection between the X8 Mouse and your
computer. When the mouse is connected, it recharges it and
lets you keep playing. And it's a storage case for the three
sets of replaceable feet that are included with the X8 Mouse.

them.

Profiles make your mouse even smarter: It knows which game
it's playing. First, enable program-specific settings, and
then program your mouse. When you launch the game, the mouse
automatically switches settings for the game-programmed
buttons. Minimize the game or open another window on top of
it, and the mouse goes back to the default settings or to
those for the active program.

Sensitivity - In all of our work
with gamers, we consistently find that there are gamers
who like low sensitivity and gamers who like high
sensitivity. There's a lot of talk about which is
better, which is cooler, which is more old-school, but
at the end of the day, you still have one set of gamers
who want it one way, and another set who want it the
other. Fortunately, it is easy to please everybody in
this case.
