How the Polling Rate Test works
Click Start Tracking, then move your mouse continuously around the test zone. We measure the time between each movement update your browser receives and convert that into an estimated polling rate in Hz — live, average, and max.
This is a real-world, browser-based estimate rather than a lab-grade hardware measurement — your operating system and display can both put a ceiling on what a browser is able to observe, even if your mouse's hardware polls faster than that under the hood.
FAQ
Polling Rate Test FAQ
Polling rate is how often a mouse reports its position to your computer, measured in Hz (times per second). A 1000Hz mouse reports its position 1,000 times per second — a higher rate generally means less delay between a physical movement and it showing up on screen.
