It's one of the first mice released using PixArt's new top-of-the-line PAW 3395 sensor and uses tactile Kailh and Huano dot switches for its buttons.

Popular Mouse Comparisons
The Fantech Aria XD7 is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse with a somewhat egg-shaped body design. It's one of the first mice to use the newly-released PixArt 3395 sensor, and it has excellent click latency and sensor performance overall. Fantech also advertises the use of Huano dot switches for the side buttons and middle click button as well as Kailh 8.0 switches for the left- and right-click buttons. These buttons feel very crisp, making this mouse a great option if you've been off-put by mushy-feeling buttons on other mice or prefer more tactile buttons overall. Many community members online have drawn visual comparisons between this mouse and other egg-shaped mice, including the Razer Orochi V2 and the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED. The Aria XD7 is a bit larger and marginally lighter than the Orochi V2 and about the same size and significantly lighter than the Logitech G305.
