  • No support for gesture controls or horizontal tilting scroll wheel
  • Lower maximum acceleration (20G) and speed (110 IPS) than premium gaming models

Verdict

The Ardor Gaming Edge Air Elite is a lightweight right-handed gaming mouse, weighing approximately 70g, that features a dual-mode connection via USB and 2.4GHz wireless. It is equipped with a PixArt PMW3325 optical sensor providing a maximum resolution of 10,000 DPI, a 1,000 Hz polling rate, and tracking speeds up to 110 IPS with 20G acceleration. Key pros include its ultra-light honeycomb-inspired design, customisable RGB lighting, and the ability to use the device while charging its 30-hour rechargeable battery. However, notable cons include its relatively low tracking speed compared to high-end models, a higher-than-average minimum DPI of 1,600, and a lack of onboard memory profiles or a tilting scroll wheel.
