Scyrox, by now, a well-known alternative to flagship gaming mice from the likes of Logitech and Razer, offering cheaper, often lighter, gaming mice with similar high-performance ambitions and top-tier internals. The Scyrox V12 series is no exception to that rule, with the V12L and V12M offering internals like the PixArt PAW Next I sensor alongside Kailh optical switches, with a 100 million-click MTBF, and a Nordic 54H20 MCU, with up to 8 kHz polling, and a magnetic scroll wheel encoder, for a starting price of $79.99. The Scyrox V12L and V12M will officially be available from November 2 on the Scyrox online store.
The V12L and V12 M are two variants of the same mouse shape in different sizes. The V12M, as you might imagine, is the smaller one of the two, which Scyrox recommends for gamers with hands measuring up to 190 mm, with the shell measuring in at 122 (L) × 62.69 (W) × 38.31 (H) with a weight of 49 g. Meanwhile, the V12L has dimensions of 125.96 (L) × 61.01 (W) × 39.85 (H) and a claimed 51 g weight. The V12 series mice are all symmetrical with a mild mid-hump design and slightly flared front and back, similar to Razer’s Viper V4 Pro, which makes them suitable for just about any grip type, although particularly suited to a palm and claw grip, as we noted in our in-depth review of the Razer Viper V4 Pro. The V12 series is wireless, with a 2.4 GHz connection supported by a 250 mAh battery on both mice, although no battery life claims are made.
The V12M and V12L will be available in orange, purple, and red, with each colorway featuring the same frosted translucent shell with hints of a colored frame showing through. The mice also come with a redesigned Halo Interactive wireless receiver, which features RGB lighting with several responsive lighting modes that communicate battery level, DPI, tracking activity, or flashes synchronized to mouse clicks.With the launch of the V12 series, Scyrox says it has also redesigned its web driver UI, although it has not outlined any particular changes. In the web driver, however, buyers will be able to remap keys, adjust DPI and polling rate, and configure settings like the LOD and sensor angle.
