Epomaker launches the 56 g EM3 mouse with a carbon-fibre composite shell
The $35.99 wireless mouse uses a PixArt PAW3315 sensor at up to 16,000 DPI and 1000 Hz, and charges on a magnetic RGB dock that also holds its receiver.
Epomaker launched the EM3 gaming mouse on October 30, 2026, a 56 g wireless mouse with a carbon-fibre and ABS composite shell, priced at $35.99 on the company's website. It is also sold through Amazon and AliExpress, and comes in black, silver and pink, each with a matching charging dock.
The build
Epomaker uses the carbon-fibre composite for the top shell and main buttons, with a fine spray coating for a dry, slightly rough grip. The symmetrical body measures 121.2 x 63.9 x 37.3 mm, a medium size that Epomaker aims at small to medium hands and claw grip. The company also says the conductive shell can register on capacitive touchscreens for basic swipes. Main clicks use Huano Blue Shell White Dot switches, the scroll wheel runs on an F-switch encoder, and there are two programmable side buttons.
Sensor and connectivity
Inside is a PixArt PAW3315 sensor rated for up to 16,000 DPI and 30 G acceleration. Polling tops out at 1000 Hz in both wired and 2.4 GHz modes, with four polling levels in software, and a DPI button cycles six sensitivity steps. Bluetooth is the third connection option. Settings live in the web-based Epomaker Hub and Epomaker Driver 3.0, including fire key, debounce, motion correction and button response.
The magnetic dock charges the mouse by contact, carries RGB edge lighting with its own physical button, and also houses the 2.4 GHz receiver, so there is no separate dongle on the desk. A 600 mAh battery is rated for about 50 hours with RGB on and about 55 hours with it off.
Where it fits
The EM3 sits below Epomaker's CarbonX and Carbonis, which use the higher-end PAW3950 sensor. At 1000 Hz it will not match the 4K and 8K polling of pricier rivals, but for players in Apex Legends or Marvel Rivals on a tight budget, a sub-60 g tri-mode mouse with a charging dock at this price is a strong package. The light weight and dock are the selling points; sensor headroom is the trade-off.
