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 I-Rocks M36 Pro and Logitech G603, 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 M36 Pro is older, 6 years old, being released in the 2018, while the other one is younger, 5 years old, being released in the 2019. The production age difference is 1 year(s). This makes the G603 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 G603 mouse, M36 Pro is ~5.00 mm (or ~0.20 in) Shorter, ~4.00 mm (or ~0.16 in) Narrower and ~1.50 mm (or ~0.06 in) Lower, which makes it, overally, 10.5 mm (or -0.41 in) moderately smaller and better suiting tinier hands.

Considering the weight, I-Rocks M36 Pro is 39% lighter, a difference of 52.70 g (0.12 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. Anyway, both mice does not offer weight personalization .

Regarding the Ergonomy, both mice are meant to be used with your right hand. They offer the same grip, Palm grip, Claw grip, Fingertip grip; the degree of adaptability is the same and equal to 3.

• Sensor and Latencies 🐭⏱️

Let's now compare I-Rocks M36 Pro sensor with the one of Logitech G603. The two mice share the same sensor technology, that is Optical, but different sensor model: PMW3360 equipped by M36 Pro and Hero 12K used by G603. 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 M36 Pro provides 11900 DPI/CPI, while G603 offers 11800 DPI/CPI, meaning that the first one has slightly larger range. Consider picking up 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). They are offering the same Max Resolution, 12000 DPI/CPI, meaning that for the same length of shift the mice will recognize the same amount of movement, "reading" equal dots per inch and, in other words, they will move with the same speed on the screen.

As for the Maximum Acceleration, which measures the maximum pull force in G(s) that the sensor can trace before inconsistencies occur, M36 Pro shows a better value, 50 G, a small difference of 10 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, G603 shows a preferable value, 400 IPS, a significant difference of 150 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 M36 Pro shows an higher value, 1.8 mm, a significant difference of 0.60 mm. 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 the mice click latency, since the data of M36 Pro is missing. We apologize for the inconvenience, you can request priority data update through the contact page. However, G603 has a click latency of 6 ms which can be considered quite decent, compared to a medium quality mouse. 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 the mice shift latency, since the data of M36 Pro is missing. Contact us to request priority data update. However, G603 has a shift latency of 9.62 ms which can be considered quite decent, compared to a medium quality mouse.

• Other Features 📎

Let's now have a look, finally, to the general features of the two mice. They are equipped with different Switch Technology, M36 Pro has Optic-magnetic while G603 has Omron D2FC-F-7N; moreover, the Switch lifespan of first mouse is 80 millions clicks while the second is 20 millions clicks, 75% better Lifespan, a difference of 60 millions clicks that can be evaluated very significant. The Feet Material is the same, PTFE. Considering the available Number of Buttons, 7 offered by first mouse and 6 offered by the second one, a small difference of 1 that can be considered important or not depending on the utilization purpose. In the end, the features offered by I-Rocks M36 Pro are On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB, while Logitech G603 is giving On board Memory, DPI Indicator.
