In late October 2026, the Japanese maker Mouse Computer quietly placed four versions of its Daiv Z6 creator laptop on sale, each built around the same sixteen-inch, magnesium-alloy frame and Intel processor but differing in graphics card, memory and storage. It is a modest entry in the long human effort to put serious visual tools into lighter and more affordable machines, a reminder that the creative work of the moment is still tethered to the hardware that makes it possible. For now the machine belongs to Japan alone, and buyers elsewhere must wait for a decision that has not yet been made.
Mouse Computer Launches Daiv Z6 Creator Laptop in Japan with 2.5K 240Hz Display and RTX 5050/5060 Options
Four versions, one processor, and a 240Hz screen aimed at creators
Mark
So what actually is this laptop?
Mimi
A 16-inch creator machine from Mouse Computer, on sale in Japan since October 29. Four versions, all with the Core Ultra 7 255H.
Mark
What's the difference between them?
Mimi
The GPU, RTX 5050 or 5060, and then 16GB with 500GB storage or 32GB with 1TB.
Mark
The screen seems to be the selling point.
Mimi
2.5K, 240Hz, 16:10, with factory color calibration. The company lists 100% DCI-P3 and 500 nits peak.
Luke
Worth noting those are Mouse Computer's own specifications. The reporting doesn't include independent measurements of color or brightness.
Mark
And the battery figures?
Luke
Same caveat. 6.5 hours of video and 12.5 idle come from the JEITA 3.0 test as cited by the maker. Real use will differ, and nothing here tests it.
Mimi
The prices are firm, though: ¥389,800 up to ¥509,800, with a three-year send-back warranty.
Luke
The dollar figures are approximate conversions. And whether it ever ships outside Japan is simply unknown; nothing has been announced.
O Pulso
- Mouse Computer has put four configurations of the Daiv Z6 on sale in Japan, starting at ¥389,800, and the choice of graphics card and memory now decides who gets which machine.
- A 240Hz, 2.5K display with 100% DCI-P3 coverage sets the laptop apart as a tool for creators who cannot afford color drift.
- Buyers face a sharp climb in price, from roughly $2,477 to $3,239, as the RTX 5060 and 32GB memory tiers push the cost upward.
- The launch stays confined to Japan, with no announced international availability, leaving overseas creators waiting on the sidelines.
In late October 2026, the Japanese maker Mouse Computer quietly placed four versions of its Daiv Z6 creator laptop on sale, each built around the same sixteen-inch, magnesium-alloy frame and Intel processor but differing in graphics card, memory and storage.

For now the machine belongs to Japan alone, and buyers elsewhere must wait for a decision that has not yet been made.
On October 29, 2026, Mouse Computer began selling its Daiv Z6 creator laptop in Japan, offering four versions of a single machine. Each shares a sixteen-inch screen, a magnesium-alloy body and the same Intel Core Ultra 7 255H processor. What changes from one to the next is the graphics card, which is either an Nvidia RTX 5050 or RTX 5060, along with the memory and storage that come with it.
The display is the heart of the pitch. It is a 16:10 panel at 2,560 x 1,600 pixels with a 240Hz refresh rate, 100% DCI-P3 coverage and 500 nits of peak brightness. Each unit is factory calibrated, and the laptop weighs between 1.68 and 1.69kg, a light load for a machine built for demanding work.
Prices run from ¥389,800 for the entry RTX 5050 model to ¥509,800 for the top RTX 5060 configuration. Every version carries a three-year send-back repair warranty and round-the-clock support. For now, though, the Daiv Z6 remains a Japan-only product, as Mouse Computer has not announced when or whether it will reach other markets.
On October 29, 2026, Mouse Computer began selling four versions of its Daiv Z6 creator laptop in Japan. All four share a 16-inch screen, a magnesium-alloy body and the same Intel processor. What separates them is the graphics card, the memory and the storage.
Two configurations use an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050, and two use an RTX 5060. Each GPU comes in a pair of tiers: 16GB of single-channel memory with a 500GB NVMe SSD, or 32GB of dual-channel memory with a 1TB NVMe SSD. The memory is DDR5-5600, and both storage options run on PCIe 4.0. The processor in every model is Intel's Core Ultra 7 255H, a 16-core chip.
The display is the centerpiece for a machine aimed at creators. It is a 16:10 panel at 2,560 x 1,600 pixels with a 240Hz refresh rate. Mouse Computer specifies 100% DCI-P3 coverage and a peak brightness of 500 nits. The panel is anti-glare, and each unit receives a color profile through factory calibration.
The company uses magnesium alloy for the top cover, the keyboard area and the bottom panel. The laptop measures roughly 357.5 x 258.3 x 19mm (14.1 x 10.2 x 0.75 inches). It weighs between 1.68 and 1.69kg (3.70 to 3.73 lb), depending on the configuration.
Ports are fairly generous. At the rear sit a Thunderbolt 4 Type-C port, a Mini DisplayPort and an HDMI output. The left side has a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, and the machine carries three USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports in total, one on the left and two on the right. There is also a Gigabit Ethernet jack, a UHS-I SD card reader and a 3.5mm headphone/headset jack. Wireless support covers Wi-Fi 7 at up to 5.7 Gbps and Bluetooth 5. A 2MP webcam with a privacy shutter handles video and supports Windows Hello facial recognition.
The battery is 75 Wh. Under the JEITA 3.0 test, Mouse Computer rates it for up to 6.5 hours of video playback or up to 12.5 hours idle.
Pricing climbs in four steps. The RTX 5050 model with 16GB and 500GB costs ¥389,800 (about $2,477), and the 32GB and 1TB version costs ¥479,800 (about $3,049). The RTX 5060 starts at ¥419,800 (about $2,668) with 16GB and 500GB, and the top configuration, with 32GB and 1TB, is ¥509,800 (about $3,239). Every configuration includes a three-year send-back repair warranty and 24/7/365 support.
For context, the RTX 5050 also appears in the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9 16IAH10, and the Lenovo ThinkBook 16p G6, which Notebookcheck has reviewed, uses an RTX 5060. Mouse Computer has not announced international availability, so for now the Daiv Z6 is a Japan-only product.
