Double-check that the cable is firmly connected. Even if it seems plugged in, remove and reconnect it securely. Also, make sure the protective film on the mouse feet has been removed, as it may interfere with performance.

Due to a known software limitation, the battery percentage is only visible in Bluetooth mode from your device’s Bluetooth tab. If the battery is below 10%, a constant red light will blink under the scroll wheel.

The V2 is a significant upgrade across the board. It uses the newer PixArt PMW3315 sensor (faster, more accurate, and more power-efficient than the original 3325), a new Compx CX52850P MCU for more stable wireless and better battery life, and 50M-rated Huano primary switches (up from 10M). Battery life has improved by more than 3x with RGB off, the feet are now 100% zero-additive PTFE for smoother glide, and the updated web software adds dedicated macro, lighting, remapping, and power management modes including a sleep timer.

The Chimera V2 lets you replace the main click switches without soldering or disassembly — just pop out the old switch with the included switch puller tool and drop in a new one. The mouse ships with two switch types in the box: 30M Huano tactile switches with a satisfying audible click, and 10M Huano silent switches for quieter environments like offices, late-night gaming, or shared spaces. You can swap between them in under a minute to match your mood, setting, or preference — something virtually no mouse at this price point offers.

No. Kreo uses a web-based software that works across multiple operating systems without any installation — just open it in a browser and configure DPI, macros, RGB lighting, button remapping, and power management settings. Your settings can be accessed from any PC, which is especially convenient if you use the mouse across work and personal machines.
