Good mouse for the price and in general tbh, but I find gpx slightly too narrow and flat. And if gpx is small for me, sora v2 wont help, even tho I like it. Will upgrade after 3y of gpx to gpx2 just to charge all my devices with one usb c cable. Also will put esp tiger ice v2 skates op gpx2(big upgrade from stock imo) and changed my Glorious ice pad with a esp tiger chuan yun, so much better than the glorious one. Thanks for puting them side by side

[@hawkittyhawk]

Good call, the Sora V2 is WAAY more narrow (and smaller overall) than the GPX. Definitely not the mouse for you. I LOVE my GPX2 and it hasn't let me down in the 6 months I've had it.

It's still too early to tell. I'm waiting a few weeks or so to ensure no problems show up before fully recommending it. But right now it's looking REALLY good and it's been flawless so far.

[@momon263]

Hello, and thank you for the Review, it arrived earlier than expected! The basic dongle is limited to 1000Hz I assume?

[@hawkittyhawk]

Yep. Stuck at 1000 Hz both wired and wireless. I even tried other cables that work above 1000 Hz from other mice but the Sora V2 won't go above 2000 Hz. I'd guess that they have it locked until you buy the separate dongle.

100%. I am holding my purchase as well because of this lol

[@phim.0]

Would you saw the sora v2 is the best mouse to buy right now considering its in my currency nearly two times cheaper than the gpx 2 and seems better but please lmk what you think since i currently have a g305 so anything would be an upgrade. (i use a claw/palm grip btw)

[@hawkittyhawk]

"Best" mouse is really hard to label because everyone has a different hand size and grip style. If you have to buy a mouse right this second I wouldn't recommend the Sora V2 because it's waaaay to early to tell how it will hold up and I've only had it for 24 hours. If you can wait a few weeks for more reviews from me or others, than we can give you a better idea if it'd be a good choice. Currently tho, the Sora V2 has some of the best features in the competitive gaming mouse world and the lowest weight currently without holes. So it's a great choice on paper, but things can change over time. The GPX 1 or GPX 2 are very safe choices because the shape of them (they're both the same) works for almost everyone which is one of the reasons why it's such a popular mouse. You can't really go wrong with them and if you're tight on money the GPX 1 is not a bad way to go at all. What's your hand size and grip style? That info can really help make a better decision too.

[@phim.0]

@@hawkittyhawk alrighty thanks I looked at the gpx 2 but it’s quite expensive my hand size is 16.5 cm long from the start of my palm to the end of my middle finger and approximately 10.5-11 cm wide if my hands are flat and fingers connected my grip style is usually claw for competitive but palm grip if I’m just playing for comfortable and I mostly play fps games if that helps aswell:)

[@hawkittyhawk]

The Sora V2 could work well for you then since this is a smaller mouse and designed for claw grip. Personally I don't like palm gripping the Sora V2 tho. Another option that could work for you would be the Lamzu Atlantis Mini. It's similar in size/shape to the Sora V2 but a bit wider. Check out www.eloshapes.com It's really helpful to see the shapes and sizes of mice and compare them. Good luck! @@phim.0

certainly thinking about getting one of these, specs of 150euro (in eu) mouse for 90 euro and a good shape

[@spooky1640]

So is the bump just a little smaller than the Superlight? Besides that, is there any massive shape difference? I've owned a Superlight since release, and am currently looking at either the BeastX or this mouse.

[@hawkittyhawk]

They are VERY different shapes between the two mice. Compared to the Superlight, the Sora V2 is MUCH more narrow, but also a lot lighter. The hump on the Superlight ends dead center on the mouse. The Sora V2's hump ends way in the back closer to your palm. The Sora V2 is also shorter, and lower overall. It just a much smaller mouse compared to the Superlight. Check out www.eloshaps.com to also compare the sizes. That's a great website that helps me out a lot when it comes to comparing mice. Hope this helps!

[@fearisthemindkiller8361]

I have a Sora 4k right now and i love it. I do want a bigger rear hump though. Should i go for this one or the Pulsar X2H?

[@hawkittyhawk]

If you want bigger then go for something similar to the X2H. But I would recommend getting any mice from Pulsar right now because they are having quality control issues and the X2H I bought in December came defective. Good luck!

[@drewmorg.]

Currently waiting on Zowie U2, but have come from a long list of GPX 1, GPX 2, Model O W, etc. I have a relaxed claw/palm grip style (Shroud's exact grip he describes on video). Does this mouse feel significantly shorter front to back compared to the GPX series? Also, how well does Ninjutso mice hold up over time? Most mice start to fail under 1 year including Logitech...

[@hawkittyhawk]

Sora V2 is shorter for sure. If using the longest point of the Sora V2, it ends exactly at the very end of the top skate of the GPX. But the Sora's front is also angled similar to the GPX where the USB-C port is so that longest point overhangs in front a bit just like the GPX. I can't speak for the longevity of Ninjutso as this is my first mouse from them so I'm hoping for the best. Hope this helps!

Is the dongle limited to 1khz or can you use 2k or 4k as well?

The included dongle is only 1k Hz max. The 8k Hz dongle has to be purchased separately and isn't even released yet. That one can go to 2k, 4k, or 8k Hz.

[@hawkittyhawk]

It should be more narrow by 2mm according to website for both of those mice. The Sora V2 side are also curved, just a heads up. X2 width = 61mm www.pulsar.gg/products/x2-mini?variant=44194567586046 Sora V2 width =59mm ninjutso.com/products/ninjutso-sora-v2

my hands are 18 x 9.5 cm and im using claw grip, would you recommend this mouse if no other issues come up? or is there anything better?

If no other issues come up, yes! It's been great and the light weight has been really good for not causing fatigue in the hand. No major complaints so far.

[@Erased198]

Is it possible to go at a higher polling rate (1000hz+) using the USB C cable?

Nope, just tried it and it's still at 1000 Hz.

[@azura4u]

hi great review, i jus wanna ask, what is the pros of using the wide skate and the pros of using the corner skates? planning to get the sora v2 for playin fps games competitively but i have no clue which skates is better to apply on my mouse. also since its been about 1 month of you using the sora v2, would you recommend this mouse compared to maybe Lamzu Atlantis mini, pulsar x2v2(or the popular pulsar mouse) or the gps2? my hand size is also the same as you and i play claw grip. thankyou so much for answering!

[@hawkittyhawk]

If you're hand size is similar to mine or smaller and claw grip, the Sora V2 is a great choice and is by far the lightest weight mouse out of all the ones you're considering. I'd avoid anything from Pulsar as they've been having quality control issues and I just returned a Pulsar mouse due to defects. I don't have any of the Lamzu Atlantis series but I've heard nothing but good things about them. And I LOVE my GPX2 and it has one of the safest shapes of all time that works for almost everyone so that'd also be a great choice. The skates would come down to personal choice. Corner skates are lighter weight by .5g and less surface to surface contact with the mouse pad. The result is more speed, a smoother and faster glide. Possibly better for tracking for games such as Apex, Overwatch, and Warzone. Wider skates are pretty much the opposite, slightly more contact with the mousepad and a tiny bit heavier. Better for control which helps flicks and stopping on a dime. Possibly better for games like Counter Strike or Valorant. That being said, the difference will be extremely minimally since the change in weight/surface contact is so tiny and your in-game performance may not change at all between the two. However, changing skates to aftermarket skates can have a much bigger impact if your looking for specific performance tweaks.

[@azura4u]

@@hawkittyhawk okay thank you so much for the detailed reply, considering the GPX2 and sora v2 which do you think is better overall for clawgrips? or maybe even mouse in general?

[@hawkittyhawk]

@@azura4u The GPX2 is the safe choice and you'll likely be VERY happy with it no matter what. It's from a big company within the US with good customer support and warranty. You can likely get one at your local electronics store today if you'd like. And it's shape really is as close to a "one size fits all" type of shape as we'll likely every see. Price is about $60 more and weighs about 20g more. Sora V2 is a specialty mouse. It's shape is specifically designed for claw grip and is a MUCH smaller mouse in general. That's why I often say it works well for people with the same sized hand as mine or SMALLER that also utilize a claw grip. If this sounds like you, it's more likely that you'll LOVE the Sora V2. But for others that use different grip styles or have larger hands, they may HATE it. Ninjutso is a much smaller company based in China and the Sora V2 is still on Pre-Order so getting one will take longer but they do have a warranty policy which is always good.

I don't have the Atlantis Mini so I couldn't properly judge. And it's also too early to give fair judgment on the Sora V2.
