Graphical Vs Comparison

Wow! The Monkeys 🐒 learnt to make Graphs!

Graphs Description The Physical Characteristics comparison is just a viewable representation of the devices' length, width, height and weight. Sensor, Latency and Other Features are, instead, computed within the range 0-->100, taking into account if the variable is getting better with the increase of its value (e.g the highest max DPI, the better it is) or vice versa (the lowest Click Latency, the better); for example, a score of 50 for both devices means they are equal, scores of 70 and 30 mean that first one better. So, the data are homogeneous to provide immediate meaning, higher bar(s) means better value(s). An empty graph means that there is not enough data to compute that comparison (one value or both are missing).

Final Vs Words

Aiding our visitors to the final choice between the mice.

This final paragraph will help you in the decision making process, between LTC LTC Circle Pit HM-001 and Logitech G502 Proteus Core, and in selecting the mouse that is performing better and best suits your needs. We are aware that every user has own needs and preferences, due to this each mouse could be better for some features and worse for other ones. The purpose of the text is to highlight this possibility and generate an "overall score" for a purchase decision.

First of all, both mice share the same utilization aim, Gaming mouse. The first one is younger, 4 years old, being released in the 2020, while G502 Proteus Core is older, 11 years old, being released in the 2013. The production age difference is 7 year(s). This makes the LTC Circle Pit HM-001 kind of more attractive in terms of freshness.

• Dimensions, Weight, Ergonomy 📐⚖️🫳

When it comes to evaluate mice dimensions, you should take into consideration the size of your hand and check if it would properly fit it or not. In this case, you should check which mice would be the fittest. Compared to G502 Proteus Core mouse, LTC Circle Pit HM-001 is ~13.00 mm (or ~0.51 in) Shorter, ~6.00 mm (or ~0.24 in) Narrower and ~4.00 mm (or ~0.16 in) Lower, which makes it, overally, 23 mm (or -0.91 in) significantly smaller and better suiting tinier hands.

Considering the weight, LTC LTC Circle Pit HM-001 is 38% lighter, a difference of 46.00 g (0.10 lbs), which can be considered very significant. We do not express a particular preference for heavier or lighter mice, being this a completely personal objective preference. However, G502 Proteus Core offers weight personalization (addable weights or editable shape) while LTC Circle Pit HM-001 does not.

Regarding the Ergonomy, both mice are meant to be used with your right hand. They offer different grip, Palm grip, Claw grip by LTC Circle Pit HM-001 while G502 Proteus Core has Palm grip; the first one can be considered more adaptable, with a greater number of grip possibilities equal to 2 instead of the 1 offered by the other one.

• Sensor and Latencies 🐭⏱️

Let's now compare LTC LTC Circle Pit HM-001 sensor with the one of Logitech G502 Proteus Core. The two mice share the same sensor technology, that is Optical, but different sensor model: Sunplus 6651 equipped by LTC Circle Pit HM-001 and PMW3366 used by G502 Proteus Core. It is very important to say that, although tech and model sometimes coincide, the assembly and composition of interior circuits might result in different specs and latencies.

Resolution, Max Acceleration and Max Tracking, Polling Rate and Lift Off
The mice offer different resolution range (DPImax - DPImin), the LTC Circle Pit HM-001 provides 5600 DPI/CPI, while G502 Proteus Core offers 11800 DPI/CPI, meaning that the last one has way larger range. Consider picking up the one having the sensitivity range that mostly suits your needs, depending on the aim (Gaming/Business) but also the kind of game you are going to use it mostly (e.g. FPS is different than RTS or MOBA). If you need a higher precision mouse, meaning that for the same length of shift the mouse will recognize more movement, "reading" more dots per inch and, in other words, will move faster on the screen, G502 Proteus Core is offering 47% better Max Resolution, 5600 More DPI/CPI.

As for the Maximum Acceleration, which measures the maximum pull force in G(s) that the sensor can trace before inconsistencies occur, G502 Proteus Core shows a better value, 40 G, a moderate difference of 18 G. Going on, taking into account the Maximum Tracking Speed, the velocity (inches per second) that the mouse can move at before it starts to loose track and cause anomalies, G502 Proteus Core shows a preferable value, 400 IPS, a great difference of 334 IPS. Take into account that max G and max IPS mostly affect activities requiring very fast mouse shift, together with the shift latency that we will analyse further in this section.

They have a Polling Rate of 1000 Hz, in other words they report data to computer 1 time every 1.00 ms. Anyway, they do not offer adjustable lift off distance through software.

Click and Shift Latencies

At the moment there is no available data to compare LTC Circle Pit HM-001 and G502 Proteus Core click latency. We apologize for the inconvenience, you can request priority data update through the contact page. Anyway, we feel it is important to underline that the differences in latencies are often more perceptible from the machine's point of view rather than human's, reducing the real impact of these values and deviations. At the moment there is no available data to compare LTC Circle Pit HM-001 and G502 Proteus Core shift latency. Contact us to request priority data update.

• Other Features 📎

Let's now have a look, finally, to the general features of the two mice. They are equipped with different Switch Technology, LTC Circle Pit HM-001 has Omron while G502 Proteus Core has Unknown; The Feet Material is different, LTC Circle Pit HM-001 (PTFE) and G502 Proteus Core (PTFE (250 kilometers)). Considering the available Number of Buttons, 7 offered by first mouse and 11 offered by the second one, a moderate difference of 4 that can be considered important or not depending on the utilization purpose. In the end, the features offered by LTC LTC Circle Pit HM-001 are On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB, while Logitech G502 Proteus Core is giving On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting.
