Swedish gaming peripherals maker MIONIX, thought to be derelict, sprung back to life. The management appears to be the same, but with new capital. The company refreshed its website with an all-new design, and announced new products. These include three new gaming mouse models, and a new line of gaming mousepads. The mouse lineup sees what are essentially "we're back!" refreshes to popular existing models. These include the Naos Pro, Avior Pro, and Castor Pro. The mousepad lineup sees the introduction of the Alioth series, which spans from 4:3 "M" size, all the way to rug-sized "4XL" that spans an entire desk top.

The new Pro line of mice see updates to their sensors, buttons, and surfaces, while retaining the essential design, shape, and button-format that made the originals popular. A common thread between the three is the new PixArt PMW-3370 sensor with 19,000 dpi resolution, 400 IPS tracking speed, 50 G acceleration, 1 ms response time, and 12,000 FPS frame-rate. The sensor talks to the driver over a new 16-bit data-format. The mice also feature an updated Arm SoC and 128 KB local storage for your settings. The LED lighting comes with 16.7 million colors. A soft-to-touch UV coating lines the top surfaces, while a 100% PTFE low-friction glide-feet can be found underside.
