ATTACK SHARK - X3 Wireless Gaming Mouse

Personally i was on the Logi G502 for years til i tried these light mice thatve been popular for a while and the AttackShark X3 has treated me well so far.

The red one has better coating than the white and black one. btw.

I’ve had this mouse for 6 years. I have the G203 Prodigy edition. Incredible mouse, still holds up today. However, I strongly recomand an AttackShark X3 or a VXE R1. Both are wireless mice, much better than the current g203 and have 3395 sensors. The VXE has a longer lasting battery of around 150 hours. Both mice cost the same as a g203 but both weigh only 50grams

I got AttackShark x3 from AliExpress for around $20-25 and it is great little(49g) wireless mouse with great sensor(PAW-3395).

I think there's some clarification needed. The answer simply depends as there's different types of wireless connections. Bluetooth is not a good experience for gaming, but most wireless gaming mice don't use Bluetooth. They use their own adapters with their own connection system called something different between companies, but those wireless adapters should be as good if not better than their wired counterparts. So the answer is that a wireless connection is more than acceptable for a proper gaming experience as long as you buy the right product and not rely on some $15 Staples mouse. For a wireless mouse under $50, there are options like the Logitech G305 and the Attack Shark x3. Both will do just fine, but you'll have more and better options by increasing that budget to $100. \[Edited spelling\]

Like many of you I’ve seen many posts all the time asking about what the best mouse under 50$ or 60$ or whatever, lots of them asking about finding a solid mouse for cheap. I’ve become someone who has more knowledge than I should ever need on solid mice sub 65$ so I figured I’d put together a list of very solid mice at a low price! I’ve broken them up into a two categories of mice as there’s a lot of them that try to aim for the exact same shape as some others and are clones. Most all shapes from China are like exactly the same as others and do not usually make their own. Some brands do, most do not, and to go farther even to say original shapes I’m gonna say like…originalish cause that’s more accurate. I’m also adding what grip type each mouse is best for but this is honestly subjective to a bit. These are mostly recommendations as far as grips go as realistically you could do whatever grip suits you best on any mouse if your hands are big/small enough and that’s not entirely a thing i can take into account. If the mouse is wired then I have added that as well as most are wireless.  *Disclaimer, most of these are cheap chinese mice. It’s kind of a dice roll if the QC will be good or not, some have particularly good QC and i’ll mention those are they come up* **ORIGINAL SHAPES(ish):** * Incott Ghero Pro A very solid ergo mouse that is called GPX Ergo (or NP-01(S) clone) by many and is extremely solid built quality wise while also being extremely affordable. (Claw/Palm) **#** * Incott HPC01M is a more traditional mouse that’s designed for all grip types and is also extremely easily hot swappable to try different switches out with. It’s super solid built wise and works for many grips (All) * ATK F1 is a more traditional shape meaning it’s got a larger hump on the end and curves in the back out towards the front, the brand is known for being fairly solid QC wise and the mouse is very lightweight at 38g. (All) * MCHOSE G3 Is an egg shape that’s overall larger. It’s more akin to the G303 if it wasn’t quite as angled and it’s butt was smaller. At the time of this post it’s fairly new but overall the Mchose brand makes some solid mice. (All) * VGN Dragonfly F1 is more of an original shape with a larger rear hump and shorter front end, that is overall a fairly solid shape akin to the style of a viper mouse. Known for having excellent quality control. (Claw/Ftip) **#** * Ajazz AJ159 is a solidly built more original shape that is akin to the Dragonfly style of a larger rear hump that curves in. (Claw)  * Darmoshark M3 is a fairly solid original shape and has very solid QC while being very good for a lot of grip styles (All) **#** * Darmoshark M3S is a smaller version of the M3 and is again very good quality and a very good overall style and feel. (Claw/Ftip) **#** * Keychron M1 is a very solid mouse with a solid original shape. It’s along the same style as a viper in terms of shape but is original overall and has very good QC as do all their mice with a lower overall profile (All) **#** * Keychron M2 is their ergo mouse that is extremely solid with a good shape that’s more original and thinner towards the front than most. A lot of Ergos do not try to be like this. It also has a mini shape as well.(Claw/Ftip) **#** * Keychron M3 is their more clad dedicated ergonomics where it’s a larger rear  and goes thinner. Due to this it’s not as good for all grip styles but is excellent for claw style. (Claw) **#** * Keychron M4 is a pure fingertip grip style. For it’s price it’s kinda wild to find a dedicated fingertip grip mouse this cheap however it’s curves are not to everyone's preferences (Ftip ONLY)  * Keychron M7 is a G502 styled mouse that is also extremely good quality but a more original shape like their others. (Claw/Palm)  * Delux M900 is an ergo original shape but close to a Deathadder shape and is fairly decent in terms of feel. (Claw/Palm) * Zaopin Z2 is an ergo with a more asymmetrical shape at it's core, with a solid shape and very solid built quality (Claw/Palm)  **#** * Darmoshark N5 is a newer very solidly built Ergo mouse that is a more original style with a harsher curve into the front from the more ergo side (Claw/Palm)  * Zowie EC2 (Wired) Most people don’t consider that Zowie mice are like under 50$ USD for the wired versions. The EC2 is what \*most\* ergo mice are based on and are very solidly build, arguably some of the better built mice out there and are beloved by many for it. (Claw/Palm) **#** * Zowie FK1/ZA11/S1 (Wired) are all  original claw styled mice that is meant to be gripped in a traditional claw shape and are what a lot of other mice ended up based on as well but you could use anything if you wanted. (All) **#** * End Game Gear OP1 Wired (Wired) This is what a lot of mice are based on as EGG has some of the better mice on market in terms of quality and built and software. It's one of the best mice you can buy. (Claw) **#** * Redragon G49/M916 is a more traditional Sora/Atlantis shape style with questionable QC (Claw/Ftip) * LTC GM022/Valkyrie M1 is a stretched Xtrfy M8 with not great click quality (Claw/Ftip) * Dareu A950 Pro a blend of GPX and a Finalmouse Hourglass shape (subtle hourglass), has decent QC but the magneisum version is not as good on clicks (All) * UHURU WM09 is a very safe shaped ambi mouse that works for most all grip styles but mostly more palm and fingertip as it's not got a ton of curves (Palm/Ftip) * Projects Gaming Sleeper is another safe rounded ambi shape which is often 20$ or less (All) * AULA SC680 is a mixture of GPX and Waizowl Cloud meaning it's a GPX with a little more curves to it. (Claw/Ftip) * Fantech Aria XD7 is a larger EGG chaped mouse overall that is much like the Orochi and Zaopin Z1 (All) * Taidu TSG808 is a safe ambi shape with a larger rear and solid sensor (Claw) * Taidu TSG608 Max is an ergo/ambi style much like the Incott Ghero and is solid for multiple grips (All) * Kysona M511/ Carpo V903 is a solid ergo shape that is much like the Darmoshark N5 and is closer to a traditional Zowie styled ergo shape (Palm/Claw) * Rapoo VT9 is a fairly safe traiditional curved mouse with seemingly heavy curves in, bit of an odd shape (Claw?) * Rapoo VT1 seems to be a GPX with some harsher curves making it more suited for claw grip (Claw) * GITOPER G2 a small but extremely curved Atlantis styled mouse with questionable QC (Claw) * UtechSmart Venus Pro is an MMO ergo mouse, one of the very few MMO mice i've seen for cheap (Claw/Palm) * ATK Z1 is a new ergo shape from ATK, very similar to other ergos but original enough. (Claw/Palm) * Attack Shark R6 is a more original shape from Attack Shark that is a larger rear hump that thins out as it goes forward, the feel is like stuff like the Sora and is at 39g with 8k (Claw/Ftip) * MCHOSE L7 is an original feeling shape that fits somewhere between the X2V2 and the Atlantis Mini, come more curves than the pure flatness of the X2, but still very capable for most grip styles. A little smaller but very well built with 8k (All) **CLONES:** * VXE R1 It’s a very solid mouse that is a near identical X2 style clone. It’s got a little bit less in terms of curves inside so it’s actually a narrower, flat shape, but overall very solid. The pro model has a much better coating and implementation of it’s sensor as well and is generally worth the amount more it costs. It’s extremely well built QC wise. (Claw/Ftip) **#** * Incott HPC02 is a hotswappable X2 which is fairly high quality and allows you to try multiple different switches easily (All) **#** * Attack Shark X6 is another X2 clone that is fairly solid but has mixed quality control (Claw/Ftip) * Ajazz AJ219 Is a X2 clone as well with slightly more curves alone the backside. Widely considered to be the Attack Shark X6 but worse. (Claw/Ftip)\* ATK X1 Is a pretty much exact clone of the Razer Viper V3 Pro Clone. It’s got worse side buttons as Razers tend to be fantastic but it’s still overall just an exact same shape and feel, albeit with no coating. (All) * Attack Shark X3 has a solid shape like a smaller G Pro Superlight (GPX) and fairly solid feel that comes in 1k or 4k, there’s quite a few mice like this so i’ll put them all in a row one after another. (All) * Attack Shark X11 is a Viper V3 clone but with a worse sensor (3311) which has bad skates and a texture but with grip tape and new skates is alright if you wanna test the shape (All) * Kysona M600 is pretty much the same as the Attack Shark X3 with a slightly better build quality. (All) * Machose A5 is much the same, a smaller GPX but more of an exact GPX shape. (All) * Ajazz AJ199 Is again a smaller GPX shape. (All) * Ajazz AJ139 Is also a GPX shape if you can believe it (All) * Zaopin Z1 Pro is a traditional egg shape (like the food not End Game Gear). It’s great for fingertip or a weird claw but is fairly small for an Egg shape. If you like the Orochi it’s nearly identical. (Claw/Ftip) * Puretrak Valor is literally just a superlight. However it’s like a third the price of a superlight with a 3395 sensor. This mouse is technically 120$ Since i first saw it a year ago it’s been on sale for 35$ on their website. If it’s always on sale it’s never on sale. (All) **#** * Incott G23 is a very solid built mouse with a near identical shape to the GPX while also having hot swappable switches if you wanna try out some different feeling clicks (All) # * Delux M800 Is a near exact clone of the Viper V2 and is fairly solidly built. (All) * Delux M600 Is a near exact clone of the Viper Mini and is also fairly solidly built. (Claw/Ftip) * Phlyina S450 is a HTS+ clone that's arguably extremely good on QC and makes a normally hundred dollar mouse down to like a fourth the price. To go farther than that they are working on a 38g 8k version of it and already have a 4k one. It’s one of the best built mice on this list. (Claw/Ftip) **#** * Keychron M6 Is a MX Master clone but weighs less and has a gaming mouse modern sensor. (Claw/Palm) **#** * Attackshark R1/Metapanda01 both mice use the exact same shell and are the exact same shape. They are both slightly smaller Deathadder V3s and the differences is the sensor, the R1 uses a worse sensor that above 1,000 dpi has very bad issues, but below is actually pretty much fine and will be mostly fine for everyone. (Palm/Claw) * Ajazz AJ199 Pro Is the same shape and style as the one above but a solid ergo (Palm/Claw) * Monka M3 is a solid Sora V2 Clone great for specifically claw grip (Claw mainly) * HELLO GANSS FLX3 is a solid ergonoimic Thorn Clone (Palm/Claw) * Vancer Gretxa is a finalmouse clone with an older sensor but overall i've heard good things about it (All) * Ajazz Aj099 is Zowie S2 clone meaning it's got a real fat rear and is great for claw with an older sensor (3311) (Claw mainly) * Ajazz AJ179 is a Outset AX clone which is fairly solid and new so reviews still need to release more (Claw/Palm) * RAWM SA-MH01 is a Viper V3 styled clone with hot swap switches for ease of trying multiple others to find what you like (All) * RAWM SA-ML01 is a Viper V2 styled clone with hot swap switches for ease of trying multiple others to find what you like (All but claw more) * RAWM SA-SL01 is a Viper Mini styled clone with hot swap switches for ease of trying multiple others to find what you like (Claw/Ftip) (see what i did there?) * Fantech Helios XD5 GO is a IE3.0 Micro styled shape which is somewhat of an hourglass traditional shape with a slightly older sensor and bad battery life (All) * Fantech Helios II XD3 is a S2 clone meaning it's a more traditional styled shape with an hourglass with a larger backend, mainly great for claw grip (Claw Mainly) * Edifier Hecate G3M is a hotswappable HTS clone which is a fairly solid and well enjoyed shape while allowing you to test multiple other mice switches (All) * iRocks M31R is a Darmoshark N3 clone which is a solid original shape (and also on this list in the original listing) (All) * iRocks HE3 is a viper mini styled mouse with a replaceable battery but not much else but does come in 4k for cheap (All) * Incott G24 is a EC2 and hotswappable meaning it's a really solid ergo mouse with hotswap which Incott is known for (Palm/Claw) **#** * VXE MAD R is a Z2V2 clone Super lightweight at 37g with a shape made for any shape. (any) **#** * ATK X1 is a Viper V3 Pro clone with a solid build. It's the same company as VXE and is solid build. * Scyrox V8 has its parent company from Lamzu but is a SORA V2 clone and is the same shape and weight. Very high quality build and very solid mouse. **#** Most of these mice use the 3395 sensor and are wireless and are all sub 60$ on Aliexpress or other websites.  You may be asking now "wow that's a lot of mice! how do I pick one for me?" or "What's the best mouse here overall?" and i'll tell you how to decide that for yourself. It entirely comes down to your handsize and grip style. There is no endgame best mouse for everyone. Everyone has a different grip style and hand size. Grip styles also change. I was using a X2V2 Mini before I just decided to try a Dav3 Pro randomly and ended up loving it and now main that which is the hardest reversal of grips and mouse you could just about do. I tried to mention based on a more medium hand size the different grip styles for each mouse. Figure out what you like and prefer and then aim for a mouse like that. A good thing you could do is get something like the Attack Shark X3 which is solid for as low as 12$ at times and use that to figure out what your proper grip style is then look more into the best mice in the grip style you prefer to find the right one for you. There’s plenty of other mice on the way or coming out soon as the cheap chinese mice market is going kinda wild with how many keep getting released and are just upcoming. Rapoo VT3 i just heard about today and the Incott G24 larger traditional Ergo is still on the way. I plan to be updating this list as it goes and would take feedback on it if you have any! *# on the mouse meant I heavily recommend it.* Edit: Added more mice based on suggestions for numerous people but u/manpalanges gets extra credit for making a very large list!

Here's a few 30$ or less solid mice all sub 60g. * Lethal LA-1: Original shape, good for all grip types, my personal favorite on this list. Lethals first attempt at aouse has a small flexing issue on the side, its unlikely to ever come up in regular usage, but caused them to drop the price. Its a solidly thin claw shape with a larger solid rear hump, basically a scaled up OP1 which feels great to use. * ATK X1: Viper V3 Pro clone shape, a larger hourglass with solid feelnfor any grip style and a good coating. It'll have a 3395 SE which is basically a 3311, perfectly fine in most cases just dont go above 1600 dpi. * ATK A9: Logitech G Pro Superlight clone shape. Larger potato shape great for all grip types though large for fingertip yet some still do. The A9 SE and normal A9 are 25$ and 30$ respectively though neither will have a coating and will have a 3311 ad 3395 SE. * VXE R1: X2 Medium clone shape, larger flatter sides great for all grip styles. No model sub 30$ will have a coating yet the normal R1 that is sub 30$ has a 3395. * Delux M600: Viper Mini clone shape, smaller and solid for fingertip and claw but a bit small for palm. Not sure the internals and harder to find with no coating but solid implementation on the model I got. * Phylina S450: HTS+ Clone shape, larger middle hump with hourglass shape and deeper curves, Great for all grip types though difficult to fingertip with its height. There's a chance the model you get wont have function software its a toss up, 3395 no matter the model. * Attackshark X3: Original hourglass shape, smaller than other mice solid for all grip types. Probably the worst QC on his list but the pro model isn't terrible. 3395 with a good implementation, the pro model is better but slightly more expensive closer to 35$, where yoy can find the original as low as 12$ at times. * Attackshark R1: Razer Deathadder V3 Mini shape clone, palm and claw. Really cheap at 16$ usually packing a 3311. * Metaphyuni P1: Exact shell as Attackshark R1, but better sensor at higher price can be found at 30$. * Metaphyuni P2: Zowie U2 clone shape, solid for claw and palm. Huge rear hump and flare makes it great for getting solid palm contact for a claw or palm grip, curves to aggressive for other options, gotta hunt for deals on that one. * ATK U2: Zowie U2 Clone shape unsurprisingly. Solid coating on all models, newer so harder to find good deals for but older sensors like a 3311 in the sub 30$ model. * Ajazz The Entire Company: Ajazz isn't the best quality. Ajazz isn't even good quality. They are lower range okay mice but offer an *extremely* wide variety of mice in different shapes (usually clones) for low prices. Those are all the ones that come to mind off the top of my head. There's certainly more like RAWM and other companies and if you just look up 3395 on Aliexpress you'll see shitloads. Keyboard wise you can get the Madlions Hall Effect Wooting clone for about 50$.

Copped the AttackShark X3 recently off of AliExpress and tbh I am amazed at how good this mouse is. I bought this mouse to bring to uni as it was only $40 AUD (26 USD)and I didn't want to risk bringing my more expensive mice. [X3 next to GPX2](https://preview.redd.it/sgge8kj1m2hd1.png?width=841&format=png&auto=webp&s=1b1c2aa4e79f4db16025fa62e7226588ba01c9df) **Some standout specs:** 50g (plus minus 2g, mine was 51g) 1000hz polling rate Kailh: Black mamba switches PAW-3395 sensor. **Pros:** First thing that struck me was how good the build quality was. Opening the box, I was expecting some jangly and creaky sh\*tbox that you see with so many Chinese "esport" peripherals loaded with RGB and other useless tech. (being very familiar with them as I come from China.) However, the casing had no creaking at all under pressure and was very, very solid. Which was ironic since the 2022 Superlight 2 models had creaking issues. M1 and M2 had so little pre-travel and was very responsive. The switches feel ok. Compared to the Superlight, they had a lower actuation force but was not as tactile in their response as Logitech's own optical switches that they use. Make no mistake tho, these switches are far from feeling "mushy". The coating on the X3 is better that the Superlight's coating. Had this for a week now, never have I ran into problems with grip issues due to sweat. I had to use grip tape on the Superlight bc of this issue. Now the shape. Oh boy. The shape is perfect for my grip style. I use a rly aggressive claw grip with the centre of my palm shifted quite forward and my fingers almost vertical over M1 and M2. My I also only grip with my thumb and ring finger and my pinkie kinda just rests behind my ring finger. So the concaved mid-section of the X3 was perfect for my grip. For the first time I played full rounds without needing to micro-adjust my grip. **Cons:** The side buttons have some wobble to them especially if you are pressing them at an angle. The skates that came with it out of the box are quite slow/sticky. In addition I was using a G640 pad which some consider to be a mud-pad. After a few days they felt a bit better. I reckon it was the left over glue residue from the "peel-off" stickers that made them extra sluggish initially. Ik it's kind of unfair to compare a $40AUD mouse to the G pro Superlight 2, but there are some, albeit very rare click delays that are noticeable. especially in Val and CS gun duels you could get the first shot off faster with the Superlight 2 coming out of a counter-strafe. **Summary:** So there you go. Kinda shows how out-dated the Superlight 2 is and how little Logitech has innovated over the years when I'm comparing it to a $40 mouse, literally a 5th of the price. Over the first few days I had it I kept thinking to myself how tf is this thing $40 dollars? When Officeworks (Australian office supply store) is selling a wired Microsoft mouse for $30. If you have $40 AUD to spend, I cannot recommend this mouse enough. PS. If you know other mouse with similar shape as the X3, pls lmk. I'm keen to try it out. I have used: Logitech G903, Logitch G304, Fantech Aria, Asus ROG Harpe Ace. Logitech G pro Superlight 2.

as a user of this mouse a fix i like to do is to remove the top and bottom skates but not the middle (on a hard mousepad like a wood table, glass mousepad, or hard mat) and it glides like butter

any of the budget chinese mice that have been popular here. the attackshark x3 for example felt way more solid.

A bit late but I'd recommend the X3, the G304/G305 is 100ish grams heavy and most of the weight is focused on the rear, thanks to it needing a AA battery

I have the attack shark x3 it’s nice and light almost like my Logitech super light 2 just significantly cheaper and a tad smaller. The one linked above is translucent like the kick and has a decent sensor as well as priced well.

Honestly, I don't have much experience with smaller mice but I know there are a lot of Mini versions of popular models. Pulsar comes to mind, SS prime (wireless) mini, Zowie EC3. Those are esports-level, maybe it's overkill for a child.. :) I can also recommend some chinese mice like VXE R1, Attack shark X3(it's a smaller clone of GPX), Delux M600 and probably more, they are solid and more affordable (compared to A-brands) I guess you can start by choosing something with appropriate size and a safe shape, then help your son with DPI and sensitivity, so he is comfortable. Maybe start with an ambi shape, it's usually more universal than ergo

The Attack Shark x3 is essentially a smaller version of the G Pro Superlight—a 50g mouse with support for three modes—priced at just $25. The only downside is that the stock skates aren't the best, but the same can be said for flagship mice like the G Pro Superlight, which also comes with subpar default skates. However, you can always upgrade to high-quality X-raypad dots, depending on your preference (speed or control), and get an incredible mouse right out of the box for just $30.

I have 5x attack shark r1 and 1x x3 and they have very good QC. Currently maining the r1 from my whole collection of 20+ mice.I think they kinda got the bad reputation from their x6 and r3. Only the budget sensor on the r1 doesnt like cordura pads , otherwise it works great on glass or cloth. Comparing the x3 to the superlight is pointless as the shapes are completely different, the x3 is way smaller and def not for everyone.

The X3 needs to be put in a bin tier as I have 2 different models and both have sensor cut out

honestly some budget logitech mouse with the hero sensor is your best bet between affordability and reliability. otherwise stuff from "attack shark" like the r1 or x3 on amazon is legitimately good, just a slight gamble with qc (tho you got amazon return window anyway). pretty well known in subredits like r/MouseReview

I use attack shark x3 which I really like and replaced my logitech g304. Bought it for only 800 php in lazada using coins and vouchers.

Yup working well pa naman.

Just got attack shark x3. And it's pretty solid budget mouse imo.

Wow. The tax hit really hard. I bought it for 23$

X3 is definitely too high, quality is bad and the reliability seems like it breaks after a few months or even weeks for some people

Attack shark X3 from AliExpress or wherever you find it at a good price. It's a copy of the Logitech super light and it's pretty good for the price tag of 20-30$.

the x3 is $37 but i absolutely agree with attackshark. if op can go slightly over x3 is great

The Attack Shark X3 was the first mouse that made me realize we're getting ripped off by some of the prices of Logitech and Razer mice. With the X3 and similar type mice you're getting 99% of what you get with a Logitech/Razer mouse at a fraction of the price.

It's good as a cheap brand, wouldn't buy their more expensive mices I've been using their X3 for 1.5 years, got it for 20$, the only issue I have is that sensor goes crazy when battery is below 10%, also QC is hit or miss

attack shark x3 is actually really good. I use mine everyday and only need to charge it like every 3 weeks.

Look into the attack shark x3, it's a clone of the superlight. Dirty cheap Chinese clone which is really good.
