![]() That means whenever you’re using the mouse, it’s discharging as normal. That’s the only place where your mouse charges, and it only charges as long as it’s sitting still. Corsair’s helpfully highlighted this zone with a circle. Instead, Qi covers a tiny zone in the top-right corner of the MM1000. It’s not going to cover an entire mousepad, or even half a mousepad. That part should also be familiar to anyone who’s wirelessly charged their phone before. The problem: Qi has a very limited range. You might’ve come into contact with Qi if, for instance, you’ve ever wirelessly charged your phone. See, Corsair uses the open-source Qi charging standard. Sure, you’ll never need to worry about plugging a cord into the Corsair Dark Core mouse-but you’ll still need to think about charging it every night or two, and therein lies the difference. Powerplay completely changed how I think about wireless mice.Ĭorsair’s MM1000 is…not quite as refined. ![]() It’s seamless, and in the nearly six months I’ve been using Powerplay now I’ve never once had to think about charging my G903. As long as the mouse is on the mousepad, it should never dip below 85 percent ever. When the mouse isn’t in use, Powerplay charges at a rate of 7 or 8 percent per hour, but even while moving around you’ll still accrue 1 to 2 percent per hour. Powerplay projects a charging field across the entire 13 x 14-inch mousepad, so no matter where you place the mouse it’s always powered-and not just powered, but trickle-charging too. Powerplay is the name of a proprietary charging system devised by Logitech. What you need to know first is that, despite doing essentially the same thing, the MM1000 and Powerplay are entirely different systems. Does it deliver? Yes, absolutely-but with quite a few more caveats than Logitech’s Powerplay setup. ![]() Namely: It promises wireless charging without the need for wires. And that’s fine, because you’re buying the MM1000 for other reasons.
