"REALFORCE MOUSE" is the world's first mouse (according to Topre's research) with capacitance non-contact switches familiar to users of "REALFORCE" keyboards!
The capacitive non-contact switch, which has been used in the REALFORCE keyboard for about 19 years, is adopted to realize a chattering-free structure and high durability, as well as a feather-touch feeling that is gentle to the fingers and quietness.
Moreover, it is manufactured at the same Sagamihara factory in Kanagawa Prefecture as the "REALFORCE", making it a world-class "Made in Japan" product!

Attention to detail in the mouse body

The shape of the "REALFORCE MOUSE" is designed to be easy to grip with the right hand.

Many left-handed people operate a mouse with their right hand, and we believe that the shape of the mouse has been made more user-friendly by specializing it for the right hand, rather than symmetrical! That's what we expected from Topre!

The left and right sides are made of elastomer material to prevent slipping when sweating, the side buttons are positioned slightly higher to provide more space for the thumb, and the interior has a double-layer case structure to increase the rigidity of the body.

The ultra-light body weight of 83g is a testament to the high level of Topre's technological capabilities.

To further enhance operability, an ultra-thin cable with a diameter of 2.8 mm is used for the cable.
The cable connection part of the mouse is designed to float on the upper side, which reduces the cable's grounding and further improves operability.

Mouse performance is also off the charts!

Now that you know how great the design is, what about the sensor part? Some of you may be thinking, "But what about the sensor part?
The sensor uses the PixArt PMW3360 sensor, which has an established reputation among professional gamers as a high-performance sensor, making it ideal not only for gaming use but also for professional use by designers.

The switch on the bottom of the mouse allows switching between report rate and DPI.

The report rate can be switched in three levels (125/500/1000), and the DPI switch can be switched in four levels (400/800/1600/3200).

Each DPI can be customized from 100 to 12,000 DPI using dedicated software, and the lift-off/distance can be set to Low or High.

The dedicated software also allows you to set the LED emission pattern of the "REALFORCE" logo on the mouse body, so you can express your personal preference when using the mouse at events, etc.
