HyperX, the gaming peripheral division of HP, has officially unveiled the specifications for its new Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition mouse. This latest offering enters the market with two distinct versions: a wired model and a wireless counterpart, each catering to different gamer preferences and budgets.
Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition (Wired)
The wired version of the Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition boasts a compact design, measuring 127.1 × 66.9 × 38.3 mm. At its core lies the PixArt PAW3315 optical sensor, a reliable choice for gamers seeking accuracy and responsiveness. The main left and right buttons are equipped with 100 million click lifecycle optical micro-switches, promising durability for intense gaming sessions. This model supports a 1kHz polling rate, ensuring smooth and immediate cursor movement. Weighing in at an impressively light 44g, this mouse is designed for effortless flicks and quick adjustments, crucial in fast-paced games. The wired Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition is priced at $39.99 USD, which is approximately 268.7 RMB.
Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition (Wireless)
For those who prefer the freedom of wireless gaming, the wireless variant of the Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition shares the same chassis as its wired sibling but comes with significant upgrades. It features a high-performance optical sensor capable of 42000 DPI, 800 IPS, and 70G acceleration. Like the wired version, it also utilizes 100 million click optical micro-switches. The wireless model pushes the boundaries of responsiveness with an 8kHz polling rate. Battery life is a key consideration for wireless peripherals, and HyperX addresses this with impressive figures: up to 150 hours of battery life at a 1kHz polling rate, and 35 hours when using the full 8kHz polling rate. Despite the added wireless components and battery, the mouse remains relatively light at 51g. The wireless Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition comes with a price tag of $89.99 USD, equivalent to approximately 604.6 RMB.
Comparison with Previous Models
It’s worth noting that HyperX previously launched the Pulsefire Haste 3 Pro. That model featured a forged carbon fiber shell, weighed 47g, and was priced at $129.99 USD (approximately 873.3 RMB). The newly announced Standard Edition models offer more accessible price points, especially the wired version, while the wireless variant provides a compelling option for wireless enthusiasts seeking high performance without the premium Pro price tag.
The release of the Pulsefire Haste 3 Standard Edition highlights HyperX’s commitment to providing a range of gaming mice that balance performance, weight, and affordability. Gamers will now have more choices within the Pulsefire Haste line to suit their specific needs and budgets.
