Pure Design
An iconic silhouette identical to no other.
Modern design merging simple curves with complex surfaces.
A polycarbonate top placed over a cavity, giving the human hand an almost floating experience. Tactile clicks with a transparent sensor membrane throughout for seamless scrolling. A multi programable button on the side.
An organic base contrasting its material of construction - Aluminium 6061 Anodised. A signature "8" shaped base adds cavities on both sides enabling inclusivity for accommodating alternate thumbs. Concealed charge port C-type & multi programable button. Invisible Optical Sensor with 18000 DPI.
A clean design with dynamic LED's at the rear refracting light through the cavity illuminating the mouse surface, almost like a crystal ball.
Absence of a scroller not only enables users to scroll anywhere on the mouse surface but also aids in cleanability and maintaining IP ratings.
Pure Design.
