Advanced Sensor Technology

Reducing the lag between on-screen action and your controller improves your gaming experience. The XM1's technology has been designed to reduce latency and give users and edge in competitive scenarios. For instance the internal signal processing of the switches is below one millisecond. This is due to patented analogue technology and the implementation of an ARM STM32 microcontroller. When combined with Omron 50M switches this makes for an unparalleled degree of precision when it comes to switch actuation.

Responsiveness is a priority for the XM1. It uses a high-end optical Pixart PMW3389 sensor that tracks movement at speeds up to 1.143 centimetres per second (450 IPS) as well as a Lift-Off Distance of 2mm, which makes recentring the mouse quick and easy.
