Know before you buy
This mouse is specifically optimized for claw and fingertip grips. Its compact, symmetrical shape is designed to provide maximum control for those styles, but it may feel too small for users who prefer a full palm grip.
Yes. The mouse features Push-Fit Switch Sockets, which allow you to easily swap out the internal switches for replacements or different click feels without needing to solder.
No, you do not. The mouse includes onboard controls that allow you to adjust the DPI and polling rate directly on the device, making it easy to change settings mid-game.
The mouse uses a lightweight ROG Paracord cable, which is designed to be extremely flexible. This minimizes drag and prevents the cable from snagging on your desk, providing a feel that is very close to using a wireless mouse.
No, the ASUS P524 Harpe Mini Core does not feature backlighting. It is designed with a focus on performance and weight reduction, keeping the aesthetic clean and professional.
The mouse is officially supported for Windows 10 and Windows 11. While it may function as a basic pointing device on other operating systems via USB, full feature functionality is intended for PC gaming environments.
