Well, not literally, but the Zephyr Pro is the next iteration of the successful 2020 Kickstarter Project. It has refined the fan-in-the-mouse concept and made it even better.
Interestingly I still use the original Zephyr gaming mouse because it is so light, accurate and cool to use – that fan makes extensive mouse work a pleasure.

What does Zephyr Pro do over Zephyr?
To understand fully, read our original review, Zephyr gaming mouse (review here 10/10). So how can you improve on a 9/10?
The two main areas significantly lowered vibration and changed the fan angle from 45° to 180° to reduce noise to <30dB.
Simple – we will let the image below show you.

Tests
Frankly, all we can do is use it as we have done for four weeks.
- It is light to hold.
- More precise and smooth than my ASUS Cerberus and Sensi mice and terrific for fine work.
- Being cabled, there is no lag.
- It is well proportioned to the adult human scale. Once you rest your palm on the back (over the fan area), the index and middle finger fit naturally over the left and right-click buttons (neutral pronation).
- The width is perfectly proportioned to a typical adult male or female hand – not too wide.
- The scroll wheel has pleasing haptic feedback for precise scrolling or push it down for free-form scrolling.
