The A980PRO MAX (around 74g) adds a 0.85-inch TFT color display and a larger 930mAh battery. The A980PRO (around 65g) is lighter, has no screen, and uses a 500mAh battery. Both use the same sensor and 8K performance.
NearLink is a next-generation wireless protocol with higher interference resistance and lower latency than standard 2.4G. It enables wireless polling of up to 4000Hz and wired polling of up to 8000Hz for latency as low as 0.125ms.
Magnesium alloy buttons are more rigid than plastic, producing a crisper click feel without flex or mushiness. The material is also lighter and stronger, maintaining consistent button feel after millions of clicks.
Both models use the AIM-750U (custom PixArt PAW3950) sensor with 30,000 DPI, 750 IPS tracking speed, and 50G acceleration.
The 0.85-inch TFT screen shows real-time DPI, polling rate, and battery status. You can also navigate settings without software or upload custom GIFs via the DAREU driver.
Fast charging reaches 90% battery in about 30 minutes. A full charge takes approximately 45 minutes.
The A980PRO MAX lasts up to 130 hours in Bluetooth mode or 75 hours in NearLink 1K mode. The A980PRO lasts up to 70 hours in NearLink 1K mode. Using 4K or 8K polling significantly increases power consumption.
The A980PRO series works on macOS via wired or wireless connection. Software customization is primarily available on Windows.
The PAW3950 sensor and 8K wired or 4K wireless polling rate provide precise, low-latency tracking. The magnesium alloy buttons click quickly and consistently for fast-paced gameplay.
