PixArt PAW3395PRO

FAQ about PixArt PAW3395PRO

Q1: What specific enhancements does the 'PRO' version of the PAW3395 offer?

A: The 'PRO' version typically features lower Lift-Off Distance (LOD), higher power efficiency, and better surface compatibility, especially when dealing with glass or specialized material pads.

Q2: Is the PAW3395 PRO technically the same as the newer PAW3950?

A: They are very similar, both representing PixArt's flagship performance with the same 26K DPI / 650 IPS specs. The PRO version is often a customized or optimized variant of the PAW3395 that incorporates some advanced features found in the PAW3950.

Q3: Does the PAW3395 PRO support an 8000Hz (8K) polling rate?

A: Yes. The sensor itself is capable of supporting 8000Hz or 4000Hz polling rates, though the maximum rate available depends on the mouse's Microcontroller Unit (MCU) and firmware implementation.

Q4: Is the PAW3395 PRO considered a "flawless" sensor with 1:1 input?

A: Yes. It ensures 1:1 raw input, introducing no hardware acceleration, smoothing, or deviation, even at its maximum speed of 650 IPS.

Q5: Does the PRO version improve upon the energy efficiency of the standard 3395?

A: Yes. The enhanced PRO variant typically incorporates more advanced power management features, providing longer wireless battery life, which is a key advantage for a flagship wireless mouse.

Q6: Does the PAW3395 PRO sensor feature Motion Sync technology?

A: Yes. Motion Sync is a key feature of the flagship sensor, ensuring highly consistent and smooth cursor movement by synchronizing sensor data with the USB reporting time.

Q7: How does the PRO sensor handle tracking on glass or Cordura pads?

A: It performs excellently. The enhanced sensor offers superior precision and stability compared to the standard 3395 when dealing with demanding surfaces like glass pads, ensuring reliable tracking even at high speeds.

Q8: What is the maximum DPI/CPI this enhanced sensor can achieve?

A: The PAW3395 PRO has a maximum resolution of 26,000 DPI (CPI), a maximum tracking speed of 650 IPS, and an acceleration rating of 50G.

Q9: What is the lowest adjustable Lift-Off Distance (LOD) on the PRO sensor?

A: The lowest LOD can be set to 1mm, and potentially as low as 0.7mm (depending on the specific firmware and mouse model), offering maximum control and precision for mouse-lifting techniques.

Q10: Is this PRO sensor overkill for non-competitive gaming?

A: Technically, yes, it is overkill. However, the high accuracy, low power consumption, and minimal latency provide a level of stability and reliability that makes it the best choice for any user seeking a premium experience.
