Redragon Launches 61 g Gaming Mouse with Magnetic Dock and Two Mechanical Keyboards

Redragon is known for its budget gaming peripherals, and it has recently announced three more additions to the line-up, this time catering to both gamers and productivity users, with two num pad-toting mechanical keyboards and a wireless gaming mouse. Starting with the latter, the Ebony M998 STD is a tri-mode wireless gaming mouse with a mild ergonomic shape and powered by the PixArt PAW 3311 sensor, which means 24,000 DPI, up to 300 IPS speed, and 35 G acceleration tracking capabilities and 1 kHz polling. It weighs in at 61 g, and is powered by a 400 mAh battery. Redragon says it should last 34 hours on a single charge, but does not cite test conditions or connectivity mode, so your mileage may vary. Probably the most interesting part of the Ebony M998 STD is its magnetic charging dock, which charges the mouse with pogo pins, not wireless charging, and doubles as the 2.4 GHz receiver. While it’s not using a flagship-tier sensor, it also does not command flagship prices, coming in at only $29.99 from Redragon directly. The mouse can also be customized on Windows with proprietary software, and it supports on-board macros and rebinding. Redragon also doesn’t specify which switches are being used in the Ebony mouse.
