Our test of the ROG Harpe Ace wireless mouse
For this review, we tested the ASUS ROG Harpe Ace Aim Lab Edition mouse on several titles, including first-person shooters, strategy games, and MOBAs. In all cases, the mouse performed excellently, offering a exceptional accuracy and responsiveness. In particular, we really appreciated the ability to adjust the sensitivity in real time, so that we can adapt the mouse to different game situations.
Even in longer gaming sessions, the mouse has proven itself extremely comfortable to use, thanks to its ergonomic shape and firm grip. I programmable buttons sare useful for assigning specific functions to individual games, while the customization software it allowed us to adjust the mouse precisely and in detail. The autonomy is also excellent (we only used the USB cable to recharge it) which reaches up to 90 hours of use. In this field, we find more capable competitors on the market, but given the size and especially the weight of the mouse, it is an excellent result.
Finally, thanks to ASUS, we also got to test the ROG Hone Ace Aim Lab Edition, the ASUS mat made for the occasion decorated in Aim Lab style and available as a bundle with the mouse. It is a square mouse that uses a hybrid fabric capable of returning a rough surface with optimal friction, balanced both in fast glides and in stopping. Excellent support for an excellent tool.
