Features
Explore What Sets Makalu Max Apart
Modular Side Grips
Experience unmatched personalization with unique side grips that are for you to mix and match.
No matter if you prefer a minimalistic setup or extra comfort for your thumb and pinky, or a combination of both – Makalu Max perfectly adapts to you.
Prefer extra support for tasking and creative work, but lean more towards a slimmer build for gaming?
The two included sets of side grips provide as much or as little support for your fingers as you desire, and are held in place with strong magnets to maximize rigidity.
Hybrid Wired/Wireless connectivity
Using 2.4 GHz RF technology, zero-lag wireless gaming and productivity are literally in the grasp of your hand. The included wireless USB receiver features an enlarged antenna design for strong, reliable, and dependable wireless performance.
Up to 80 hours of battery life will last you through the most enduring sessions. The included ultra-flexible USB Type-C cable keeps you up and running when it’s time to refill the battery.
Gravity Control System
MOUNTAIN peripherals are all about customizability. Makalu Max takes that to new heights with its unique Gravity Control System, enabling you to not only alter the weight of your mouse, but also re-adjust the balance by using any of the 3 included metal weight discs.
Weighing 10.6g, 8.4g, and 6.6g, you’re certain to find your perfect match.
PixArt PAW3370 Sensor
Only the best components are good enough for Makalu Max, which is why we have selected PixArt’s fantastic PAW3370 sensor to be the heart of our most customizable mouse yet.
