Күн бұрын

The future of gaming mice is here! Today we're going to be unboxing the brand new and highly anticipated Ninjutso Sora V2! Now this is one of the most hyped up mice releasing in 2024, not only because of it's top of the line specs but for it's absurdly low weight of a mere 39 grams while having a solid shell! Now this weight is achieved due to the polycarbonate shell but with this new material how is it going to hold up? Are there any corners cut on the inside to keep the weight low? We'll find out in the full review but for now we'll just unbox the Sora v2 and see how it feels! Stay tuned for a full review of the Sora V2 in a couple weeks after this video and I'll catch you all again then, peace ✌

Hey, I have got Logitech G502x lightspeed do you think that Sora V2 will be an upgrade compare for my present mouse?

@THZX-qk9fc 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for bringing up the USB issue. I think you're the only reviewer that talked about that out of all the reviews I've seen. Definitely something to consider when buying the mouse.

@PrabhuRPR 4 ай бұрын

a person who went years to schools and colleges, did their engineering, years of work experience designed that port to fit their "proprietary" designed usb-c cable. What a bummer. The razer viper ultimate had the same problem, it was a huge problem for me when I lost the cable and the company doesnt even sell a replacement cable.

Great video👍🏽 I like that the skates are not preinstalled but I don’t like the motive behind it with Ninjutso, since they only did this to meet their 39gram weight claim.

@mel0nFPS 5 ай бұрын

My unit still weighs ~39 grams with the speed-stocks installed (39.7g). I think the control-stocks would push it to the 40g range but it's still within the 39g +/- 2 gram spec. I didn't think of them not pre-installing the skates to meed the 39 gram weight though, I thought they did it to save manufacturing costs. I'll do some digging and see if I can figure out the reasoning behind it and I'll cover that in the full review!

Hello, i was looking to wait for the sora v2 or op1 8k (restock) or get the x2h (you can suggest another one too), which one do you recommend or aggro claw with 18-19 hand size?

@mel0nFPS 5 ай бұрын

Hey! I haven't checked out the op1 8k yet, will be covering that one as soon as I can get it. Sadly while I love the shape of the X2H it has some brutal sticky-click issues so I'd avoid that. The SORA V2 is a solid claw mouse but it is definitely on the smaller side but it is very comfy for claw grips. Both the SORA v2 and the Op1 8k are solid options, really depends on personal preference imo.

honestly my experience with it so far has been positive as someone who also has big hands. Only issue is the software being web-based relies on their awfully slow server speeds to load the visuals, which took me 30+ seconds to fully load the page from california on gigabit internet and a brand new pc. It gets a pass because it’s only in beta and it’s something you only use once or twice and never have to touch again. otherwise it’s pretty nice, i haven’t had any issues with connectivity. super sick to see another super super low weight mouse with no holes. feels unreal to play with, like you said, its like you forget you’re holding a mouse. I feel like that’s thanks to the fact that it’s very well balanced, feels light no matter where i grip it. if the next batch has a fixed usbc cable that’s angled, and includes at least a 4k polling dongle, it would be near endgame in my opinion and a top5 mouse on every list

@mel0nFPS 5 ай бұрын

I agree completely! Fingers crossed the 2nd batch fixed the few issues on the Sora V2. I'm excited to see how it preforms long-term though!

Hello. I'm considering purchasing the V2. Has your thoughts changed since you posted this comment a week ago?

@Jerry-ex5hy 4 ай бұрын

how's the battery life on the sora v2? and do you have competitive mode on.

@mel0nFPS 4 ай бұрын

Battery life has been really good with comp mode. since it's the same specs and battery as the PM1 I'm assuming I'm gonna get around 60 hours on the comp mode but I'll confirm that for the full review!

ninjututso sora v2 or pulsar x2v2 mini ? for 17.5x9 hands with claw grip

@mel0nFPS 3 ай бұрын

Hmm, both are solid options. The Sora V2 is better optimized for claw grip but it's thinner while the X2V2 Mini is less optimized for claw but is wider. I'd say try the Sora V2, you have slightly smaller hands than I do so you'll be able to claw grip it properly. The X2V2 and X2H Mini unfortunately have a serious QC issue that effects the click quality and longevity of the unit. The Sora V2 on the other hand doesn't have any issues (that I know of) and is a much more complete package in my opinion. If you want to learn more about the Sora V2 I do have a full review on it, you can check that out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmasiqKLd7WeadE Hope that helps!

I have small 17.5cm hands. Waiting for your full review. I use relaxed claw and palm grip.

@mel0nFPS 4 ай бұрын

For small hands the SORA v2 is very good, ideal for claw/palm grips with small-med hands. I'll have more details in my full review soon!

@SageTheeMage Ай бұрын

After owning the sorav2 for a bit over a month now (going onto 2 months 2 week of next July) I’ve used it quite a bit sorry to say but I soon will need to buy after market skates my stock ones (control) have worn out heavily to the point it for any glide that well anymore.

@SageTheeMage Ай бұрын

Also comment on the material it’s a type of plastic I believe but they made it really thin unlike other mice.

@mel0nFPS Ай бұрын

I did notice the skates were quite thin on the Sora V2, wasn't sure about lifespan though. If you're looking for replacements I'd recommend either the X-RayPad Jade (speed) or Obsidian (control) skates! Those are the types I personally use and you can get them in full size stocks, Donuts or dots! Btw what kind of pad are you using your Sora v2 on?

how often you charge it ? is it as bad as glorious ? a full charge can only last for a 3-4 days even with RGB off !! not to mention that the time i spent playing is less than 20% .. the rest is general use .. absolutely terrible !!

@2fr 5 ай бұрын

9 hours of active use for me and i’ve dropped 17% but i turn it off when im not using it. definitely not a big battery but it’s the trade off they made for the weight i guess. ill likely start plugging it in at night because it can drain quicker than expected

@mel0nFPS 5 ай бұрын

Battery life is very good so far, haven't need to charge it yet but I haven't been using it too much yet, I'll have more detailed breakdown of the battery life in the full review once I can crack it open and figure out what battery size is inside the Sora v2!

@finetixz5028 4 ай бұрын

will this mouse feel different when the coating wears off?

@mel0nFPS 4 ай бұрын

I'm actually not sure! Generally speaking coating wear off of plastic over time due to friction but since the shell material on the SORA V2 is polycarbonate I'm not sure how it'll fair over long-term use. The SORA v2 and Sprime PM1 are the only polycarbonate mice on the market right now and they've all released in the past couple months so we don't have any data on long-term wear yet. I'll do some digging thought and see if I can find any data for the full review!
