Keychron has introduced a new mouse called the G6 HE UltraLight in Japan. The mouse uses a symmetrical, ergonomic shape and measures 123.7 x 63 x 41mm. Inside, it runs on a Nordic nRF54LM20A controller paired with a PixArt PAW3955 optical sensor.
The highlight of this mouse is that it has a pair of MagOptic switches on the left and right click buttons. These switches let you switch between optical and magnetic mode. They use electromagnetic sensing, which lets users fine-tune how the input responds, while still delivering the sharp, physical click that regular electromagnetic switches often lack. Keychron rates them for 100 million clicks, matching the durability seen in similar high-end mice such as the M7 wireless mouse.
What’s thoughtful of Keychron is its offering two choices for battery. One has a built-in, fixed battery that weighs 42g. The second version has a swappable battery and weighs 46g, with extra weights available to bring the total up to 52g or 62g for users who prefer more heft. Both draw from a 350mAh cell.
Keychron says the mouse lasts up to 340 hours over Bluetooth, or around 35 hours on 2.4GHz at an 8kHz polling rate, similar to the connectivity flexibility found in the brand’s M2 4K mouse.
On the outside, the shell is made of ABS and PC plastic with a nano-coating designed to resist slipping and wear. The color options for the G6 HE mouse include black, white, or five matte, semi-transparent finishes. That said, the fixed-battery model comes only in black.
Keychron G6 HE UltraLight Mouse Price and Availability
The Keychron G6 HE starts at 11,968 yen (about $73) for the fixed-battery version during its crowdfunding campaign, while the swappable-battery model starts at 14,344 yen (around $87).
The mouse joins a growing group of Hall-effect and magnetic-switch peripherals from Keychron, following devices like the K2 HE keyboard, which also uses magnetic sensing for more precise input control.
