Review: Ninjutso Sora V3 Is a Refined High-End Ultra-Light Gaming Mouse
The Ninjutso Sora V3, priced at $120/€110, represents a significant evolution in ultra-lightweight wireless gaming mice. Building on the original Sora’s 2022 breakthrough as the first sub-50g wireless mouse without holes, the V3 continues the weight reduction trend that the 2024 V2 established below 40g.
The latest iteration introduces a comprehensive suite of technical improvements designed to appeal to competitive gamers and demanding users. Key upgrades include enhanced internal rigidity for improved structural performance, an uprated 45K sensor for precision tracking, a refined scroll encoder, upgraded mechanical switches for tactile feedback, and substantially improved battery life—addressing one of the traditional trade-offs of wireless gaming peripherals.
The mouse maintains the wedge-shaped design that proved popular with claw grip users, balancing ergonomic preferences with the pursuit of minimal weight. Digital Foundry’s testing spanned two weeks across demanding titles including Battlefield 6, Counter-Strike 2, 007 First Light, and BattleTech Advanced Universe, alongside general productivity work including writing and editing.
