Comparison Dark Project Novus SE vs Dark Project Novus

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.

The battery capacity in a mouse affects how long it can operate without recharging and determines how often the device will need to be charged. Although manufacturers usually specify the operating time, the capacity helps assess the battery's resource under intensive use or when additional features, such as backlighting, are activated.

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.
