   With quite a large number of first and third person shooters coming out in 2015 (noticeably Grand Theft Auto VI and Mad Max) and even some real time strategy titles) it's only natural for gamers around the world to start getting ready for them by getting new gaming peripherals such as keyboards, mice and headsets. Of course when it comes to gaming i think that there's nothing more important for gamers other than to own a good gaming mouse not only because that's what you'll be using all the time but also because it's perhaps the only peripheral that can improve your reaction times (important for online games mostly). Logitech has been around for well over 3 decades and in that time they released some good gaming mice which I’m sure many of you still own. However it wasn't until just recently that they began focusing a lot more in the design and manufacture of gaming mice (probably because of their relatively new Logitech Gaming brand) and today we'll be taking a look at their latest G402 Hyperion Fury model.


   Focused on innovation and quality, Logitech designs personal peripherals to help people enjoy a better experience with the digital world. We started in 1981 with mice, which (new at the time) provided a more intuitive way of interacting with a personal computer. We became the worldwide leader in computer mice, and have reinvented the mouse in dozens of ways to match the evolving needs of PC and laptop users. Since those early days, we have expanded our expertise in product design beyond the computer mouse, with a broad portfolio of interface devices that are the “last inch” between you and your computer or your console game, digital music or home-entertainment system. With products sold in almost every country in the world, Logitech’s leadership in innovation now encompasses a wide variety of personal peripherals (both cordless and corded), with special emphasis on products for PC navigation, gaming, Internet communications, digital music and home-entertainment control. For each of our product categories, we study how our customers use their digital devices, and then our designers and engineers set their sights on how we can create a better experience with those devices – richer, more comfortable, more fun, more productive, more convenient, and more delightful.


   Although it can only go as high as 4000DPI (which is quite low compared to the 12000DPI of the G502 Proteus Core) Logitech markets the G402 Hyperion Fury as the fastest FPS gaming mouse in the market currently something which they have accomplished by pairing their Delta Zero Sensor Technology (we've already seen it with the rather new G602) which increases precision with their Fusion Engine Hybrid Sensor which basically makes use of an gyroscope and an accelerometer to "predict" the heading/position of the mouse (a technology also used in satellite navigation). Because of these two sensors and the 32-bit ARM processor the G402 Hyperion Fury can track movement up to well over 500IPS (inches per second), has a report rate of 1ms/1000Hz and has a max acceleration of 16Gs. Design-wise the G402 is not far apart from the G502 and G602 models but although it's much different from what Logitech offered in the past like the G502/G602 models we doubt that will be an issue.
