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 Benq Zowie EC2-A and Mionix Naos QG, 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 Zowie EC2-A is older, 9 years old, being released in the 2015, while the other one is younger, 8 years old, being released in the 2016. The production age difference is 1 year(s). This makes the Naos QG a bit 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 Naos QG mouse, Zowie EC2-A is ~Same Length, ~21.00 mm (or ~0.83 in) Narrower and ~Same Height, which makes it, overally, 21 mm (or -0.83 in) significantly smaller and better suiting tinier hands.

Considering the weight, Benq Zowie EC2-A is 13% lighter, a difference of 14.00 g (0.03 lbs), which can be considered moderately significant. We do not express a particular preference for heavier or lighter mice, being this a completely personal objective preference. Anyway, both mice does not offer weight personalization .

Regarding the Ergonomy, both mice are meant to be used with your right hand. They offer different grip, Palm grip, Claw grip by Zowie EC2-A while Naos QG 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 Benq Zowie EC2-A sensor with the one of Mionix Naos QG. The two mice share the same sensor technology, that is Optical, but different sensor model: PMW3310 equipped by Zowie EC2-A and PMW3360 used by Naos QG. 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 Zowie EC2-A provides 2800 DPI/CPI, while Naos QG offers 11600 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, Naos QG is offering 73% better Max Resolution, 8800 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, Naos QG shows a better value, 50 G, a moderate difference of 20 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, Naos QG shows a preferable value, 250 IPS, a significant difference of 120 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. Lastly, the Lift Off distance of Zowie EC2-A shows an higher value, 1.2 mm, a small difference of 0.20 mm. Anyway, Zowie EC2-A offers adjustable lift off distance through software.

Click and Shift Latencies

Benq Zowie EC2-A has higher click latency than Mionix Naos QG, a small difference of 0.60 ms, 7% worse Click Latency, which can be evaluated not really significant, in terms of compared performance. 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 Zowie EC2-A and Naos QG 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, Zowie EC2-A has Vary by batch from Huano to Omrons while Naos QG has Omron; The Feet Material is the same, PTFE. Considering the available Number of Buttons, 5 offered by first mouse and 7 offered by the second one, a small difference of 2 that can be considered important or not depending on the utilization purpose. In the end, the feature offered by Benq Zowie EC2-A is DPI Indicator, while Mionix Naos QG is giving On board Memory, DPI Indicator.
