Understanding Mouse Polling Rate
Your mouse's polling rate, measured in Hertz (Hz), determines how many times per second it reports its exact position to your computer. A higher polling rate means less input lag and smoother cursor movement on high refresh rate monitors. Mobile users can also swipe on the pad to test their screen's touch polling rate.
Common Tiers:
• 125Hz: Standard office mice (8ms delay).
• 500Hz - 1000Hz: Standard for competitive gaming (1ms - 2ms delay).
• 4000Hz - 8000Hz: Extreme esports peripherals (Sub-1ms delay).
