The Ninjutso Sora is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse with a symmetrical shape. The body of this mouse is made with solid plastic, which is noteworthy as many similarly lightweight gaming mice have small cutouts in their bodies to reduce their overall weight. This mouse's internal components include Huano Pink Dot switches for the primary click buttons and a PixArt PAW3395 sensor, one of the most accurate and consistent sensors on the market at the time of writing.
