Dragonfly 3 Mini Esports Wireless Gaming Mouse

VGN Dragonfly 3 Mini: 52 g Ultra-Lightweight Wireless Gaming Mouse, Dual 8K

The small one, with nothing taken out

The Dragonfly 3 Mini is VGN's full-spec gaming mouse shrunk for small and medium hands. At 118 x 61 x 38 mm and about 52 g it is short, low and light enough to flick from the fingertips all day, and the back-shell curve has been reshaped so a claw or fingertip grip sits on it rather than reaching for it. Inside is everything the full-size Dragonfly 3 carries: PixArt's newest sensor, Nordic's 54LM20 controller in both the mouse and the receiver, Kailh optical switches rated for 160 million clicks, a TTC Gold wheel and dual 8K wireless at 0.175 ms.

Two versions. The Turbo+ uses the PAW3955 Extreme sensor with 1 DPI steps up to 50,000 and a 22,000 FPS ultra-performance mode, in Blue Purple, Gray Red, Black Gold or White. The Turbo uses the PAW3950 Extreme at up to 42,000 DPI, in Black Gold or White. Everything else is the same mouse.

Q&A & Specifications

Questions & Answers

Turbo or Turbo+?

Same shell, weight, switches, wheel, battery and 8K wireless. The Turbo+ has the newer PAW3955 Extreme sensor, finer 1 DPI steps to 50,000 and the 22,000 FPS ultra-performance mode, plus two extra colours. If you play at normal DPI and do not chase sensor specs, the Turbo is the same mouse for less.

Which hand size?

Small to medium, in fingertip, claw or palm grip. Large hands will find it short; the full-size Dragonfly 3 is the one for them.

Does 8K work over Bluetooth?

No. 8000 Hz runs over the cable and the 8K nano receiver. Bluetooth is a third mode for a laptop or second PC.

Do I need software?

Not to use it. V HUB runs as a Windows desktop app or as a web driver in Chrome, Edge or Opera on Windows, macOS and Linux, for DPI, polling, lift-off, sensor angle and the dynamic DPI curve.

Any charging rule?

Yes. Charge from a computer USB port or a charger rated no higher than 5 V / 2 A. VGN says not to use high-power fast chargers.

Compatibility

Wired, 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth. 8000 Hz polling runs over the cable and the 8K nano receiver; use the adapter to bring the receiver onto the desk and plug it into a USB port directly on the PC rather than a hub. Bluetooth runs at a standard rate for laptops and second machines. The V HUB desktop driver supports Windows 10 and above; the web driver runs in Chrome, Edge or Opera on Windows, macOS and Linux, so Mac and Linux users can set DPI, polling, lift-off, sensor angle and the dynamic DPI curve in a browser. Charge from a computer USB port or a charger rated no higher than 5 V / 2 A; VGN advises against high-power fast chargers.
