Arbiter Studio AKITSU Review
Source: Tech Power Up added 27th Dec 2024
Introduction
Arbiter Studio is a peripherals company based in the US, whereas Vancer is a peripherals company based in China. For their first mouse release, Arbiter Studio has joined forces with Vancer. The result of this collaboration is the ambidextrous AKITSU, which manages to weigh no more than 39 g. Similarly to the Finalmouse UltralightX, this weight is achieved by utilizing a carbon fiber composite for the shell, along with hexagonal holes across most of the top, sides, and bottom of the mouse. For the sensor, PixArt’s PAW3395 capable of 26,000 CPI sees use, coupled with custom Huano switches for the main buttons. In wireless operation, polling rates of up to 8000 Hz are supported, at which setting up to 12 hours of battery life are cited, and up to 60 hours at 1000 Hz. The feet are made of pure PTFE, and a replacement set along with a set of grip tape are included with the mouse. Configuration is done either conveniently through a web driver or through buttons on the mouse, and the dongle has an LCD showing the current CPI step, polling rate, and MotionSync setting, along with battery charge level.
Many thanks go to FineMax, who kindly provided the review sample.
