Ninjutso Sora is a 43 gram extremely lightweight gaming mouse, but other than that, is it really as good as it seems? Here is my review on the mouse.

The Sora may not have been as great as it seemed to be, but your hair undoubtedly is.
He's the Jesus of gaming mice 🙌🙏
Wise words Frikker ;D
Hey, glad you finally ended up reviewing it! I already have the sora and, thankfully, it has not exhibited any QC (sensor or build quality) issues. I am enjoying it quite well w/ fingertip grip playing apex/val. Great video as always, haus!
Finally a review that focus on relevant information. Well done. Thank you.
Awesome review! As always!
Got to say mate, you are the go to for in depth mouse reviews
been waiting for this. Specifically didn't pick up this mouse because Ninjutso didn't send units out to you and pzogel
How's the hump/butt of the Lamzu/Ninjutso/PulsarX2 mice compared to the G Pro SL? Ive been on the G Pro SL and as a fingertip grip the butt rarely touches my palm and was trying to figure which would be ideal for fingertip and wonder if any of them would force me more into a claw grip. 19x10 hands.
The weight and balancing feels very good for fingertip but the shape isn't as optimal as id like. Mainly due to the side button placement and the aggressive inner curve. X2 mini feels more natural. I've never personally felt sensor or click inconsistency while actually in game but... Even if it happens here or there, why risk it? Too many options out now that are just more consistent. good review Haus 🍻
Ive wanted this mouse for awhile, but since discovering your channel, i always wait for your opinion before grabbing a product such as a pad or mouse
Thanks brother!
I'm actually looking to move on from my glorious model O but don't know which one to get because I have exactly same aggressive claw grip like Faze Twistzz ... Which one do you recommend?
Wow, great in depth review dude. I was excited to try this but after seeing the inconsistencies I am having second thoughts. Appreciate your inputs! ❤🔥
Mine came perfect!!!! I don't even have the pre and post travel like he said!!! And my switches are great..
@@officialteamroc interesting 🤔 I have seen different reports online
🙏
The second batch seems quite consistent, received mine today and it is super great in all aspects!
I just have gotten lucky. I have a damn near perfect copy. & I love the clicks! Only thing I would take it off my desk for is my Atlantis mini. Great review tho, Haus!
I think you've misunderstood in a sense. The quality on the Sora isn't bad, clicks aren't bad. It's the implementation and performance that is very much lacking for a mouse in this price range. It's not something that is unit specific!
with what mouse can you compare the sora width and form wise? other then the xm1
did the new firmware update adress these issues?
What do you reccomend more Sora or Xlite v2 mini. I have medium size hands and I use claw and sometimes fingertip grip?
Insane review, your video quality is top tier
Much appreciated!
Great work as always Yuri!
Thank you bro!
Is this or pusler or x2 mini or Atlantic better than g pro superlight?
Highly underrated channel. Keep up the good work 👍
Glad you think so bro!
i was playing a valorant round the other day and i died. it must have been the 0.81 deviation
Nice review, Do you like the pulsar xlite v2 or x2 more and what size, they are both on sale on max gaming right now and im looking at getting one, or should i wait for LA-1? Thanks
I prefer the X2 over the Xlite V2!
How would you describe the coating towards people with sweating hands or really dry hands or someone between in the middle.?
I don't think it's a coating specifically designed for anyone. Most likely the mouse is not even coated, just the surface finish. I'd say it's ok for dry hands and ok for sweaty hands as well.
do you know when endgame gear are going to drop their wireless mice/restock any of them? been waiting for so long just to see sold out everywhere
No clue sadly :(
@@hausgaming no worries, I'll live! lol
ninjutso to-do list: - switch over to blue shell huanos so that it is lighter - improve the mcu (pretty sure this is cauaing inconsistency) and firmware in general
Really wanted to try this mouse but the inconsistencies I've seen from a few different people has sadly put me off for now
@@VoltaReviews And you think you will EVER notice any of these MS "inconsistencies" ingame? PPL paying way to much attention on this latency parts. It doesnt matter if u play with something like 160ms or 170ms ingame. Latency is still fine on the sora. Dunno why ppl moving into retards since ytbers start to talk about latency. Its just more like placebo, cause you will barely get any kind of advantages ingame. We are still talking about f...g MS ^^
@@Lawandfun fair point and I do agree to a certain degree. I’ve just other reviews where people have been able to see/feel this such as ChadAltDelete for example. At that price point, comparing it to other similar shapes, it is a bit of a concern to me personally at least
Switching the MCU will most likely not help. This is just a guess, but whoever they use to write the firmware for them is doing a horrific job. Most likely it's a combination of the Telink MCU and firmware causing these issues, but it's hard to say.
@@hausgaming yes, im pretty sure thats the case too! i may have overfocused on the mcu but firmware is very important as well
Top tier review as always
Glad you enjoyed it!
I want see your vaxee xe wireless review when will you upload xe wireless review??
Today or tomorrow!
Looked super interesting but as soon as u mentioned wrist pain it was a dealbreaker. Currently having issues with wrist pain on my GPX Superlight. Great review
What grip style do you use?
@@GGbowz2101 I‘d call it something around a lazy claw
@@mts_exo1725 Might wanna try the endgamegear XM2we great shape for claw. GPX just kinda has a shape that works with everything but is not the perfect shape for most grip styles
@@GGbowz2101 I watched haus‘s review on it and was quite impressed. Gotta look up where I can get one, thanks for the recommendation🫶🏼
Keep in mind wrist pain is VERY personal, it doesn't necessarily mean that you'd be having the pains even if you had the exact same size hands and grip style. There are definitely other factors that make me not recommend this mouse though.
I had wrist pain with the X2 mini and everything was fine with the sora :D but damn, the click latency deviation is worrying :/
Wrist pain is of course a very personal thing, very specific to injuries, grip, hand size and many more things. Yeah, I think the tech isn't up to par when we consider the competition.
@@hausgaming really disappointing, because it was my current number 1 :/
LAMZU ATLANTIS MINI WHEN???
Reviewing it soonish, nothing too interesting in that imo!
what's the name of the programm where you test the sensor ?
I use MouseTester, MouseComparator and LDAT
Yo haus, is your main still the m42 wireless, or have you switched?
I don't really have a main atm, so many good mice! M42 is one of my all time favorite shapes for sure.
@@hausgaming Yeah ur not lying lol. How close do you think the pulsar x2-h will be to the m42 (higher hump)? Looks like it'll be pretty similar since it's getting slimmer and a higher hump.
I'm just wondering why they decided to use the mcu called tenlik blahbalh. It could have been much nicer product at least it came out with cx52850 that the x2 and the atlantis use even it makes the price bar rise 10$ or more. Especially considering its impressive weight. (Would have been much much better if it were nordic, but small companies somehow do not seem to like using them.)
idk, seems like sticking to the chip they used before, theyve been using it since the origin one x (you know, that budget 3335 mouse). or just hoping they can make more money by focusing on weight with marketing
@@TMKM Origin One X was CompX CX52810
@@reverseflesh5422 oh. well, then i got my info wrong. thanks
I believe you clicking at the very front of the main buttons is exaggerating the post travel, when using it normally I have a great click experience and find the tolerances way better than my DAV3
I hold my fingers near the front edge of the mouse, but as I clearly say in the video (or at least I thought I said it clearly), the post travel is not an issue :).
u look like the guy on the glorious logo
Glorious hair!!
Can you review Finalmouse new Firmware 1.3.4
Sorry bro, the changes are not interesting enough for me
Wish I saw this before I bought it...
banger review
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yep, I'd skip this mouse for now. Thanks haus! Detailed review. :)
Glad I could help!
LA-1 Waiting room!
Wake me up when ninjutsu make a Microsoft wheel mouse optical clone
It's not just you. The horizontal inversion issue is an epidemic with this mouse. Happened to me along with others on Reddit. Ninjutso is claiming this is a perfectly normal occurrence due to 7 out of every 1K sensors being defective, but clearly that's not the case. Something else is wrong here.
I think a lot of videos are not doing this mouse justice, people really need to just try the mouse for themselves, relying on a reviewer for a purchase decision really is not a great idea, especially when you can just return the mouse
Bro, Ninjutso cheap-out on the MCU (the Sora is using a microcontroller commonly found in lower-end mice). There are reports from users who are having connection/stuttering issues. This cannot be fixed via firmware update as it is a hardware issue.
The stuttering/connection issues are most likely due to polling instability. Calling it a hardware issue when they've not had issues this bad before is a bit of a stretch. It's most likely a firmware issue, but the problem is that they do not seem to have the ability to fix it.
@@hausgaming using a cheap MCU that has known issues on a mouse with a 3395 is just silly though.
Have you ever thought about your click latency measurement methodology being flawed?
Have I thought if instrumenting with LDAT is flawed? After comparing my results against USB Analyzer results, not really :) it produces near USB Analyzer level accuracy, more accurate than other possible methods/tools. It's the best tool & method for anyone who isn't a firmware developer to test the click latency of a mouse in my opinion. However, Ive multiple times thought about possible issues in my USB pipeline, which could cause variance in the results. This is why I always confirm the results with a device that I have previous data with. The data from that specific mouse has been confirmed with an USB analyzer, so I'm very confident with the accuracy of my results.
@@hausgaming How mice interact with HID differs so USB analyzers are not usefull. They are how finalmouse got lower latency than gpx ae. Just seems weird you get the same resault for everything you have tested the past few months. Just wanted to double check
@@ayo0069 All respectable R&D departments use USB Analyzers, it's the best tool for firmware engineers. No one I've talked to has gotten better results with the SL12 vs GPX. The reason why these CompX mice have essentially the same click latency is exactly that. All have little to no differences in the firmware, the same debounce solution and the same MCU.
"Promo sm" 🙈
Thing thing and the rest of the mini mice are gonna get destroyed in a few days by Viper Mini 😆
True, but the price difference between the Viper mini and these other mini mice will be pretty big.
I didn't like the switches on the Sora either.
