How do I update the keyboard?

To update the firmware, you must first connect the computer and the keyboard with a cable, put the keyboard in the middle position, that is, in wired mode, then open the software and wait for the upgrade.

If you see "PASS," it means the firmware update was successful. You can then close the notification window. Next, unplug and reconnect the keyboard cable to activate the keyboard. After powering on, you can switch to other connection modes.

Mouse

Should I choose a wired or wireless gaming mouse?

Your choice depends on your priorities. Wired mice are ideal for those who want consistent performance without input lag or battery issues. They are generally more affordable and reliable for competitive gaming.

Wireless mice are perfect for gamers who value portability and a clutter-free setup. Modern wireless technologies, especially with low-latency options, offer performance comparable to wired models. However, they can be more expensive and require charging or battery replacement.

Good news—GravaStar mice offer three connectivity options: wireless, wired, and Bluetooth. You no longer have to choose; you get all three in one convenient, slim package.

Can I return the gaming mouse if I am not satisfied?

You can return your mouse provided it is in its original condition with unopened packaging and you have proof of purchase. If you wish to return a product, please contact us and we will provide you with a return label. Items returned without our prior authorization will not be accepted.
