Brief conclusions of the comparison mice

Gravastar Mercury M1 Pro and Mercury M2 mice have similar features, such as connection type (radio, Bluetooth, and wired), PixArt 3395 optical sensor with up to 26000 DPI resolution, and 5 buttons. However, the key difference lies in the polling rate: M1 Pro supports 4000 Hz (0.25 ms), providing a faster response, while M2 is limited to 1000 Hz (1 ms). Additionally, the battery life of the M1 Pro is significantly longer — 200 hours compared to 82 hours for the M2. Otherwise, both mice offer RGB lighting and the ability to connect multiple devices.

Glossary

Max. polling rate

The polling rate shows how often the mouse sensor communicates with the computer about cursor movement. The parameter is measured in hertz (Hz), and one second is taken as a unit of time when evaluating it. The smoothness and speed of cursor movement directly depends on the sensor polling frequency. Directly related to this is the mouse response time - this is the time period during which the signal about the movement of the manipulator will reach the display of a change in the cursor position on the screen. Response time is measured in milliseconds (ms). The more hertz the mouse has, the shorter the response time it demonstrates.

Battery life

Battery life of the mouse (see “Power”) on a single charge.

The battery life in this case is rather approximate: it is given for an average usage scenario, and the actual autonomy may turn out to be less or more than stated, depending on the usage patterns. Nevertheless, it is a fairly reliable indicator, allowing different battery models to be evaluated and compared with each other: the difference in the stated battery life usually correlates well with the actual autonomy difference.
