Christmas:delivery times may be affected.

If you are thinking about buying a new computer mouse, one of the most common technical features you will find is DPI - a tool used to measure the sensitivity of this accessory. It's not always clear how DPI can impact mouse performance, but if you often play on your computer or use editing programs, you should update this standard.

 

DPI means, in English, “Dots Per Inch”. Translating this expression into Portuguese, the acronym means Dots Per Inch. This value demonstrates the number of dots that are present in an inch, which corresponds to 2.54cm. DPI affects the mouse's movement sensitivity. In other words, the higher this value, the greater the precision of the movement and the faster the pointer speed.

 

To adjust this value, simply access the search bar of Windows and type "Mouse". Then just click on the button that says "Pointer Options" and set the speed according to your usage type. Below we suggest the number of DPIs you should choose based on how you use the mouse, as well as some models of mice from our store:

 

  • Common user: 400 to 2000 DPI – this value should be chosen for people who use the computer for tasks such as writing texts, browsing the internet, email and social networks.
  • Professional or gaming: 2000 to 6000 DPI – for users who need greater precision when working with images or videos and for gamers, this value will guarantee the necessary quality.
  • Specific use: +8000 DPI – There are also specific technical mice for work and games that need a very high level of DPI.

 

Digiplanet has several models of cheap and refurbished mice to meet the needs of all our customers. You can see all the options here .
