Verdict

The ASUS ROG Chakram is a high-performance, right-handed wireless gaming mouse featuring a 16,000 DPI optical sensor, 400 IPS tracking speed, and 40g acceleration. Its standout characteristic is a programmable, detachable joystick on the left side that operates in both analog and digital modes, alongside tri-mode connectivity (2.4GHz RF, Bluetooth, and wired USB). Key pros include exceptional customization with magnetic screw-less covers and hot-swappable push-fit switch sockets, a long battery life of up to 79 hours, and versatile charging options like Qi wireless and fast USB-C charging. However, some users find the mouse relatively heavy at 121g, the joystick placement can be difficult to reach for smaller hands, and its premium price point is higher than many competitors.
