Leading value-for-money digital lifestyle accessories brand, Trust Electronics Ltd, is pleased to introduce GXT 981 Redex lightweight gaming mouse with durable Kailh mechanical switches. The latest gaming mouse in the Trust range is available from Amazon for £29.99. The GXT 980 Redex Wireless has earned positive feedback from press and consumers, and has won several awards, making it a logical choice for Trust to bring a wired version to the market. The GXT 981 Redex is the new wired sidekick for social gamers. A 72 g lightweight design primes them for hours of gaming comfort, making the mouse suitable for heavy use.

An adjustable - and highly accurate - optical sensor offers sensitivity from 200-10,000 DPI, readying users for intense matches and fast reactions. Meanwhile, durable Kailh mechanical switches last up to 80 million clicks. The Redex also has 6 programmable buttons to customize the mouse to suit various playstyles or game types. And with the included software, users can adjust the RGB lighting to match their setup's vibe and save several profiles to easily switch from one customization to another.



The family look
Trust is expanding its gaming mice category to create certain "family looks." This means several products can be from the same family and look similar, but offer differences that make them unique for every user. For gaming mice, Trust is going for pure performance-based design, like that of the GXT Redex Wireless Gaming Mouse, which focuses on advanced gaming and precision.

New mouse, new price
The GXT 981 Redex is coming out at a new price with a RRP of € 29.99, placing it between Trust's Ybar and Graphin mice. The Redex is marketed as the affordable mid-level, high-performance mouse for the social gamer.

Play to win
The Redex is a lightweight mouse for heavy use, is all about accuracy, and can be used for the long term - up to 80 million clicks. Along with the wireless variant, the wired Redex is a great beginning of Trust's new family look.

The Trust Gaming GXT 981 Redex Lightweight Gaming Mouse is available from Amazon for £29.99.

I'm just curious has anyone shifted to a "light weight" mouse for gaming and seen any benefits in gaming experience?

I haven't really looked into all this light weight business but i cant see why something lighter than my usual mouse would benefit

The rage about a decade ago were mice with optional weights you could add for a better "feel". I wonder how long until trackballs come back with some new marketing spin (and no, not the ones for your thumb).

so the craze and added premium is based on better "feel"? nah i'll give that a miss. I actually like my current selection of mice... none are based on these ultra light weight ones and all of them "feel" fantastic

If you mean much easier mouse control because of less inertia, less friction and less effort needed to move/stop the mouse, then it's certainly a "feel".
