VM501 and VM501L Wireless Gaming Mice Set for Release
“ELECOM GAMING Vcustom” is a premium gaming device series that offers mice, keyboards, headsets, and more based on the concept of devices for winning.
The VM501 and VM501L wireless gaming mice joining the lineup are optimized for both palm and claw grips by adopting a half-ergo shape.
The development reportedly incorporates feedback from professional gamers while fully utilizing the expertise of the long-standing Elecom.
By focusing on the line from the wrist to the base of the ring finger and creating an asymmetrical shape composed of smooth curves, the VM501 and VM501L provide a design that minimizes hand strain even during long hours of play.
High-speed connectivity is essential for victory.
Because the VM501 and VM501L support a 2.4GHz wireless connection, quick mouse operations during gameplay are possible without lag or stress.
The built-in battery features 45 hours of continuous operation and fast charging support that provides 4 hours of use with a 3-minute charge, ensuring practically no downtime!
The M-sized VM501 weighs 56g, and the L-sized VM501L weighs 61g, achieving a lightweight design.
Equipped with eight buttons—including left and right wheel clicks, side keys, and a top button—they are effective across all game genres, including FPS and MMORPGs.
Naturally, users can assign functions to each button using the dedicated software, EG Tool.
Elecom's new VM501 and VM501L wireless gaming mice are scheduled for release in late February 2024.
The Elecom Direct Shop is selling them for 8,480 yen (tax included).
Please check the specifications for each model on the VM501 product page and the VM501L product page.
