High-speed validation
Mouse Spin Test
Run quick spin trials to confirm your mouse can report every tiny motion at speed. Circle tightly, then throw fast linear spins to check for skips, jumps, or sudden direction flips.
Spin stability
High-Speed Spin Test
Hold your mouse, start the timer, then spin tight circles or fast straight flicks to see if the sensor drops frames.
Spin quickly for 8 seconds
Trace tight circles to check for direction reversals, then try rapid horizontal or vertical spins for jump detection. Keep the cursor inside the box the whole time.
Outcome
Start the timer, then spin quickly in circles or straight lines to see if your sensor keeps up.

How to read the results
- Clean runs show stable speed and zero anomalies—good news for high-polling mice and low-sensitivity players.
- One-off gaps can happen when lifting or pausing. Frequent gaps, jumps, or direction flips signal tracking loss.
- If you see repeated anomalies, try another surface, change the USB port, or drop DPI to confirm it isn't a pad or driver issue.
