The LAMZU MAYA X is a lightweight, wireless gaming mouse that continues the MAYA linup. It has an identical symmetrical shape with relatively straight sides and a low, centered hump to the LAMZU MAYA, but it's larger overall. Like the rest of the lineup, it has a solid plastic body and a weight-saving, open plastic frame on the underside instead of a more conventional solid baseplate. It uses PixArt's PAW3950 sensor and supports a maximum wireless polling rate of 8000Hz right out of the box. Instead of a downloadable configuration software, it uses a web-based software that you can access from your browser.
Our Verdict
The LAMZU MAYA X is adequate for work. It has excellent build quality, an accommodating symmetrical shape, and wireless connectivity with its USB receiver. That said, it doesn't support Bluetooth or multi-device pairing, and its scroll wheel lacks L/R tilt inputs. Also, some of the inputs don't work properly on macOS. See the Compatibility section for more details.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants
The LAMZU MAYA X is part of a wider lineup of gaming mice with the same shape. Some variants, like the MAYA X we tested, have the newer PixArt 3950 sensor and optical switches. Older variants, including the LAMZU MAYA (4K Compatible), which we tested in a separate review, use the older PixArt 3395 sensor and mechanical switches.
The performance differences between the models that use the 3950 and 3395 sensors are marginal and not noticeable. Models that use Omron Optical switches won't suffer from double-clicking issues as they age, which is a possibility for mice using mechanical switches.

Popular Mouse Comparisons
The LAMZU MAYA X continues the MAYA lineup of lightweight wireless gaming mice. It has the same shape as the LAMZU MAYA, but it's bigger all around, making it more suitable for larger hands. Still, it's accommodating for most hand sizes and grip types, thanks to its centered hump and relatively flat sides.
Despite it having a newer sensor and supporting an 8000Hz polling rate out of the box, it performs nearly identically to the LAMZU MAYA. This makes it a compelling option if you're looking for an FPS gaming mouse with top-tier performance, a lightweight body, and a shape that accommodates most grip types and hand sizes.
