Verdict

The AOC AGON GM530 is a wired gaming mouse designed for right-handed users, featuring a high-performance PixArt PMW3389 optical sensor with a maximum sensitivity of 16,000 DPI, 400 IPS tracking speed, and 50G acceleration. It is equipped with seven programmable buttons utilizing durable Kailh switches rated for 80 million clicks, along with two onboard memory profiles and customisable RGB lighting across three zones. Main pros include its ergonomic skin-friendly rubber side grips, a precise 1000 Hz polling rate for low latency, and a dedicated DPI switch for on-the-fly adjustments. However, notable cons include its relatively high weight of approximately 101g (without cable), small glide pads that may wear quickly, and a stiff braided cable that can cause distracting pushback during fast movements.
