Question 1

What is a good scroll test score?

Accepted Answer

An average user scrolls about 1500-2500 pixels per second. A score of 3000-4000 px/s is good, 4000-6000 is great, and anything above 6000 px/s is excellent — usually achieved with a free-spinning scroll wheel.

Question 2

How is scroll speed measured?

Accepted Answer

Scroll speed is measured in pixels per second (px/s). We sum up all scroll wheel delta values during the test period and divide by the elapsed time in seconds.

Question 3

Does this work on touchpads and mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The test responds to touchpad gestures, touch swipes on mobile, and standard mouse wheel scrolling. All input methods are measured in pixels.

Question 4

Why does my score vary between devices?

Accepted Answer

Scroll speed depends on your device settings — scroll line count, smooth scrolling, and whether your mouse has a free-spinning or notched wheel. Gaming mice with infinite scroll wheels typically score highest.
