The Keychron M2 Mini 8K has arrived, and it feels like a big step forward for players who prefer a small and light gaming mouse. Keychron released it quietly, but the specs make plenty of noise. At $59.99, it brings fast hardware, solid build quality, and a shape made for smaller hands.

Keychron has upgraded the Mini in two important ways. The first major change is the move to an 8 kHz polling rate, giving the mouse much quicker response times. Every swipe, tilt, and flick feels more direct and controlled. The second upgrade is the new PixArt PAW 3950 sensor. This sensor gives better tracking, lower latency, and more accurate movement than the older PAW 3395.

The mouse now goes up to 30,000 DPI and can keep up with speeds of 750 IPS and 50 G acceleration. It even works on glass surfaces thicker than 4 mm, which is something many gaming mice cannot do. These features make the M2 Mini 8K feel fast and reliable no matter how you use it.

It keeps the same tri-mode wireless setup that many users love. You get Bluetooth 5.3, 2.4 GHz wireless, and a wired USB-C option. The full 8 kHz speed works on the wired and 2.4 GHz modes. A 600 mAh battery powers everything, and Keychron says you can get around 140 hours of use when sticking to Bluetooth mode.

At just 50 g, the mouse is extremely light and easy to move, helping with quick aim and long gaming sessions. The PTFE feet help it glide smoothly on different mousepads. The main buttons use Keychron’s Huano Transparent Blue Shell Pink Dot switches, rated for 80 million clicks, so durability should not be a worry.

Keychron M2 Mini 8K specs

In size, the Keychron M2 Mini 8K measures 117 × 64 × 38 mm. It is smaller than the standard M2 model and slightly lighter too. This makes it a comfortable choice for gamers who like a compact grip or who simply want something easier to control.

Overall, the Keychron M2 Mini 8K feels like a strong and well-rounded update. It is light, fast, and packed with quality features while staying budget-friendly.
