Four wireless mice from one brand can look like four versions of the same thing. They are not. Each of AULA's SC-series mice at Evetech is built around one idea: a battery you can change, a very low weight, lighting through the shell, or a screen on the mouse itself. This AULA mouse comparison takes them one at a time, then helps you match one to your hand and your habits.
The AULA SC900 MAX swaps batteries, the SC800 MAX weighs 48g, the SC620 Contour shows RGB through a honeycomb shell, and the SC590 Pro has a built-in display. All four are tri-mode. The SC900 MAX is the performance pick, reaching up to 8000Hz and 30,000 DPI at 62g with its battery fitted. Evetech sells the SC900 MAX for R749, the SC800 MAX for R629, the SC620 Contour for R349 and the SC590 Pro for R319.
Most wireless mice stop when the battery runs down. The SC900 MAX keeps its 400mAh lithium cell behind a removable base cover, so a charged cell can replace a flat one without plugging in. If you keep a second cell topped up, downtime drops to the few seconds the swap takes.
This is the fastest mouse of the four on paper. It polls at 1000Hz out of the box, and a change in AULA's software takes it to 8000Hz on the 2.4GHz receiver or the USB-C cable; Bluetooth runs at 125Hz. DPI moves through six steps, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400 and 30,000, cycled by a button underneath, and an indicator changes colour with each step.
It measures 126 x 68 x 44mm. The body weighs 50g and the cell 12g, so it is 62g in use. Three colours are listed: Black, White and Red.
The SC800 MAX is about one thing, and AULA puts it front and centre: 48g. That makes it the lightest mouse in the group by a clear margin. Like the others, it is tri-mode, so it runs on a 2.4GHz receiver, over Bluetooth or on a cable.
Why does weight matter so much? A lighter mouse takes less effort to start and stop, which helps with fast flicks and quick corrections, and it reduces strain over long sessions. Players who pick up and reposition the mouse often, especially at low sensitivity, feel the difference most. It comes in Black and White.
The SC620 Contour's body is a hollowed-out honeycomb, and its RGB lighting shows through the holes rather than from a single logo. The same shell keeps the weight to 67g. AULA shapes it for claw, palm and fingertip grips.
Its party piece is a dedicated Fire button. You map it to one command, such as a rapid click burst or a program shortcut, and it runs with a single press.
It uses 6 DPI levels, 800 to 12,000, and polls at 1000Hz. It connects over 2.4GHz, Bluetooth 5.3 or a USB cable on a 400mAh battery. The AULA driver handles button remapping, macros, DPI, polling, sleep time and lighting brightness and speed. AULA notes the driver works on Windows over 2.4GHz or the cable, not Bluetooth. Black and White are listed.
The SC590 Pro carries a small built-in screen that shows three things: how it is connected, how much charge is left to the percent, and which DPI step is live. Buttons next to the display switch DPI. For anyone who has been caught out by a mouse dying mid-game, a precise battery readout is genuinely useful.
It uses six DPI levels from 1200 to 20,000 and polls at 1000Hz, reporting its position every millisecond. It is tri-mode over 2.4GHz, Bluetooth and USB-C, on a 500mAh battery.
About 64g and about 118 x 60 x 38mm, a shade shorter and narrower than the SC900 MAX. It comes in Black.
Shape matters as much as specs. The SC620 Contour is the only one AULA describes for claw, palm and fingertip grips. Larger hands usually settle more comfortably on a longer body, so compare the SC900 MAX's 126mm length with the SC590 Pro's 118mm if you palm your mouse. Fingertip players often favour the lightest option, which points to the SC800 MAX.
Long evenings reward two things: low weight and a battery you do not have to babysit. The SC800 MAX covers the weight side. The SC900 MAX's removable cell covers the power side, and the SC590 Pro's exact battery readout means you are never surprised. If you mostly play short sessions, any of the four will do, and the choice comes down to shape and features.
A fast mouse shows its best on a smooth, consistent surface. If you are pairing one with a keyboard, AULA's magnetic boards pair naturally with the SC900 MAX, since both can run at 8000Hz.
Compare these with the wider range in Evetech's gaming mice category, and look at the gaming keyboards section to complete the desk. Evetech backs each of the four with a 1 Year Local Warranty, in every colour.
