Our Verdict

Zaunkoenig M2K

G-Wolves HSK Pro 4K

The G-Wolves HSK Pro 4K and the Zaunkoenig M2K are high-performance, lightweight gaming mice. They are both extremely small mice designed to be used with a fingertip grip only. The Zaunkoenig M2K is a wired-only model, and it lacks side buttons. It's also made of carbon fiber and has a maximum native polling rate of 8000Hz. On the other hand, the G-Wolves is wireless and supports a maximum native polling rate of 4000Hz (or 8000Hz with a separately purchased G-Wolves 8k receiver). It's also not as well made as the Zaunkoenig, and it's made of plastic instead of carbon fiber.
