Amazon is offering the ASUS ROG Chakram X Tri-Mode Wireless Gaming Mouse for $129.99 shipped. Down from $160, this $30 discount actually marks a return to the second-best price that we’ve seen all-time. For further comparison, the only time it’s gone for less was earlier this month with a drop to $110, but this is the best we’ve seen outside of that. In the past, many wireless mice only connected, well, wirelessly. The ASUS ROG Chakram X, however, does things a little differently. Sure, it connects over Bluetooth or the 2.4GHz USB dongle. But, those who want the lowest latency possible or to use it while charging will find that it also functions wired as well, making it even more versatile. There’s a 36,000 DPI sensor with 8,000Hz polling, which helps the seven programmable buttons and 4-way directional joystick communicate with your computer at the fastest speed possible. In fact, you can even switch out the 3-pin mechanical switches and 5-pin optical microswitches to really dial in the feel of this mouse. For battery life, you’ll find that it lasts up to 114 hours on a single charge and you can recharge it either by plugging it in or setting it on a wireless Qi pad. Take a deeper dive in our announcement coverage. Keep reading for more.
