Players will be targeted by Microsoft's new mouse

The SideWinder X8's special sensor, which enriches the range of gamer accessories, is truly unique in its category.

The scanning process, called BlueTrack, is less sensitive to surface quality than traditional optical or laser solutions, Microsoft claims, at least. Whether there is indeed a difference in practice cannot yet be substantiated, however, a maximum resolution of 4000 dpi and image processing at 13000 fps do not seem like a bad omen. The rodent, which normally communicates wirelessly at 2,4 GHz, says the manufacturer says it can stay up to 30 hours, but you don't have to worry about stretching the hammock for several days, as the included cable will always keep the device ready to fight.

The only serious downside to the SideWinder X8 is its purchase price: the $ 99 price tag could seriously affect the product’s appeal.
