ARM cortex A7 Quad core:

So why would I want to use hardware cursors?
Hardware cursors are cursors managed by the operating system. They are framerate independent and work in the same way that operating system cursors work. This means that if your game is running slowly mouse input will still feel nice and not be laggy. This helps with the user experience.
Why would I ever use a software cursor over a hardware cursor?On some platforms hardware cursors have limitations, for example on Windows the cursor is limited to a version specific resolution (32×32). In situations where you want a larger cursor you may be required to use a software cursor.
