HyperX Pulsefire Dart Review

Co-developed with Ninjutsu esports input, the Pulsefire Dart is HyperX's premium wireless ergonomic mouse, built around Qi wireless charging and a 16,000 DPI PMW3389 sensor.

The Pulsefire Dart was HyperX's flagship wireless mouse when it launched, aimed at players who wanted set-and-forget charging via any Qi pad rather than plugging in a cable each night. Its ergonomic shell leans into a fuller palm-grip shape with textured rubber grips, and while its 141g weight looks heavy next to today's ultralight wireless mice, it remains a comfortable long-session pick.

Who It's Built For

Right-handed palm grip players who want Qi wireless charging convenience and don't mind a heavier, older-generation shell.

Comparison to Alternatives

Against the HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 Wireless already in this catalog, the Pulsefire Dart is more than double the weight and uses an older sensor, trading ultralight performance for Qi charging and a fuller ergonomic shape. It sits closest to the Corsair Dark Core RGB Pro on the Qi-charging shortlist.
