its funny how WLmouse made a mouse lighter than the ulx, more reliable and cheaper with no previous mice

Top Criticism

Original Beast X is a steal for $65, but keep in mind WLmouse has pretty much abandoned firmware updates for it. Also the battery life is pretty awful and will likely never be fixed.

These brands are wasting no time with rolling out 3950's. I'm having to remind myself the 3395 in my Sora v2 is just fine. It's great that new and improved options are constantly being released, but I'm definitely having to fight the FOMO.

Unfortunately the Sora is allergic to Valorants game code and it will literally burst into flames if you try to play Valorant with it.
