Keychron continues to expand its distinguished lineup of gaming accessories with the addition of the new G4 and G5 mice to its G series, joining the recently announced G3 edition. These new versions feature a symmetrical, lightweight design that satisfies the ambitions of gamers, with support for a superior survey rate of 8,000 Hz to ensure unparalleled instantaneous response. The two mice share three-mode connectivity options that include wired and wireless connectivity via a 2.4 GHz frequency in addition to Bluetooth technology, and they rely on the advanced PixArt 3950 sensor, which provides an amazing resolution of up to 30 thousand dots per inch with a very low latency of 0.41 milliseconds in wireless mode.
Despite the great similarity in basic specifications, each version stands out with its own touches, as the G4 model weighs 55 grams, making it the heaviest among the new versions, but it remains very light by the standards of gaming devices, and is distinguished by the presence of dedicated buttons at the bottom to directly adjust the accuracy and reconnaissance rate without the need for software. The G5 model elevates the user experience by relying on a durable carbon fiber body that reduces its weight to only 43 grams, with a honeycomb-pattern engraved surface to ensure a firm and comfortable grip. Both models contain a 500 mAh battery, with the G4 model providing up to 130 hours of operation at a 1000 Hz poll rate, while the G5 model excels thanks to its lighter weight, offering up to 153 hours of continuous operation on the same settings.
In terms of pricing and aesthetic options, Keychron targets specific tastes by offering each model in only one color. The G4 model shines with a classic aesthetic inspired by old Famicom devices in white, and is available for a price of 80 US dollars through the official website. On the other hand, the exclusive G5 model comes in an elegant carbon black color that reflects the nature of the materials used in its manufacture, and is available at a price of 110 US dollars. Interested users can purchase both versions directly through the official Keychron website to experience a new level of control and performance in their favorite games.
