Akko MX01: Tri-Mode Ergonomic Office Mouse with Magnetic Scroll Wheel

Built for the eight-hour day, not the deathmatch

Akko makes plenty of light, fast gaming mice. The MX01 is the other kind. It is a full-size, right-handed ergonomic mouse with a sculpted palm hump and a proper thumb rest, shaped for hands that spend the day in spreadsheets, code and browser tabs. At 124 x 80 x 45 mm and around 106 g it fills a medium or large hand, and the weight is part of the comfort: it stays put when you rest on it, and the shell supports the hand instead of asking the fingers to grip.

Two things make it feel different from a basic office mouse. The main wheel runs on a Hall effect magnetic system rather than a mechanical ratchet, so it scrolls with far less resistance and much less noise while keeping a clear step you can feel. And there is a second wheel under the thumb for sideways scrolling through wide timelines and spreadsheets, with the middle button tilting left and right on top of that.

Tracks on glass

The PixArt PAW3809 sensor, up to 6000 DPI, is tuned for shiny, low-texture surfaces. A glass desk or a glossy conference table is fine without a mat.

Weeks between charges

A 500 mAh battery with a low-power design: Akko quotes up to 23 days of daily use over 2.4 GHz and up to 40 days over Bluetooth.

Three devices, three modes

Wired USB, the 2.4 GHz receiver and Bluetooth, so the desktop, the laptop and the tablet can each have their own connection and you switch between them from the mouse.

Made to last

The main clicks use mechanical switches rated for 100 million presses, and the wheel's magnetic mechanism has fewer parts to wear than a conventional encoder. Polling is 1000 Hz over USB and 2.4 GHz, plenty for precise cursor work, and the sensor adds no acceleration or smoothing, so the cursor goes where your hand does.

Q&A & Specifications

Questions & Answers

Is it a gaming mouse?

No. It is an ergonomic productivity mouse. It will play games fine at 1000 Hz, but at 106 g with a thumb rest it is built for comfort over long sessions rather than flick shots.

What does the magnetic scroll wheel feel like?

Lighter and quieter than a normal notched wheel, with a soft, defined step rather than a hard click. Long documents scroll with much less effort.

Which hand size?

Right hand, medium to large. Palm grip is what the shape is built for.
