PAW3311 Gaming Mouse Collection

FAQ

Q1: Is the PAW3311 sensor a "flawless" modern sensor?

The PAW3311 is considered a high-performance flawless sensor for most users, meaning it tracks your movements accurately without built-in acceleration or major deviations up to its high-speed limits.

Q2: Is the PAW3311 good enough for competitive FPS gaming?

Yes, absolutely. With a maximum tracking speed of up to 300 IPS and 30G acceleration, the PAW3311 provides more than enough speed and precision for nearly all competitive FPS players.

Q3: How does the PAW3311 compare to the popular PAW3395?

The PAW3395 is the current flagship with higher specs (up to 26,000 DPI / 650 IPS) and better power efficiency. The PAW3311 is an excellent, cost-effective alternative that performs just as well for most gaming scenarios at 1000Hz.

Q4: Will I notice the difference between the 3311 and 3395 in actual gameplay?

Most users will not notice a functional difference during regular 1000Hz gameplay. Only extreme, high-speed, low-sensitivity movements on specialized pads (like glass) might reveal the 3395's superior tracking speed.

Q5: Is the PAW3311 an energy-efficient sensor for wireless use?

Yes. The PAW3311 is specifically designed for low power consumption, featuring a self-adjusting variable frame rate for efficient battery management in wireless gaming mice, contributing to long battery life.

Q6: What is the maximum tracking speed (IPS) and acceleration (G)?

The PAW3311 typically offers a max tracking speed of 300 IPS (Inches Per Second) and an acceleration tolerance of 30G.

Q7: Does the PAW3311 sensor have high Lift-Off Distance (LOD)?

The LOD is usually fixed but can be slightly higher on budget implementations. However, it is generally low and adjustable through the mouse's software to ensure precise tracking when lifting the mouse.

Q8: What is the maximum DPI/CPI of the PAW3311?

The sensor has a native maximum resolution of 6,200 CPI, but is often implemented to reach an interpolated or software-enhanced maximum of up to 12,000 DPI.

Q9: Can I adjust the Polling Rate (Hz) on a mouse with the PAW3311?

Yes. Mice featuring the PAW3311 typically support the industry standard 1000Hz polling rate, and the rate is usually adjustable via dedicated software to lower settings (e.g., 500Hz, 125Hz).

Q10: Is the PAW3311 a reliable choice for budget-conscious gamers?

Absolutely. It offers top-tier tracking performance that was considered flagship just a few years ago. It is the best choice for gamers prioritizing value without compromising on core competitive accuracy.
