> 24 hourI really had some hope in this mouse being a good sub $100 mouse, but sadly was let down by numerous issues. For starters- the default debounce time is set to 12ms, which for anyone looking to use this for games is horrible. So, I managed to look through their website, albeit a little sloppy, and find the software to lower this by 10ms. That should be the end of that right? Unfortunately not, as the problem of the mouse just not registering clicks on a regular basis didnt seem to subside. I dont know if it is just the kale 8.0 switches they used, or the mouse itself. Regardless, I dont recommend anyone buy this mouse, either buy a under $50 one that would more than likely outperform this by miles. If not, then spend the extra $20-50 on a mouse that is actually respectable. Stay clear of Fantech, I should have listened to the numerous tech reviewers who said likewise.

> 24 hourI was always a fan of the Logitech G305 and like many was wishing Logitech would release a superlight version of the mouse for quite some time now. Razer did something similar with the orochi which was another egg shaped mouse on the lesser side of the gaming peripheral spectrum. Both the g305 and the orochi required an external aa/aaa battery to power it. This resulted in the pretty substantial weight differences depending on what battery you ended up using. The Aria gets rid of this with an internal rechargeable battery and still managed to cut the weight down considerably. The clicks feel nice, the shape feels nice, the included charging cord (usbc) feels high quality. All in all I cant complain and if youre in the market for an egg shaped mouse this is your best option hands down. I will say the software could use some work, but for everything else you get I can deal with some outdated looking software.

> 24 hourI was in the market to find a new lightweight portable mouse for primarily productivity on a laptop with a gaming pedigree. After much research this one to my surprise looks and feels really good in person! Not too big or small, just right for me and comfortable. USB-C port for charging and can be used to connect as a wired mouse. Let alone the versatility of Bluetooth 5.0 for my use during office productivity work or using the provided dongle for their 1000hz polling 2.4Ghz mode when Im down for some FPS gaming. Mouse wheel feels great and not too noisy but no left and right scrolling nor free spinning wheel mode. Not a big deal, but I wouldve also have preferred the left/right mouse switches to be a notch less clicky sounding for office use and would feel a bit more premium in my opinion. DPI adjust button should have been on top of mouse below the scroll wheel which has the space for it and not under the mouse. Still, this mouse checked all of my boxes and will keep any eye out for when and if Fantech comes out with a v2 of this mouse. Logitech has always been my go to mouse in the past but their latest mouse of similar offerings and prices did not fare well with me. I was also close to pulling the trigger on the Razer Orochi v2, but determined the smaller size, ergonomics, and no USB-C charging persuaded me to try the Aria XD7 in the end and is a keeper. I updated to firmware v1.1 immediately so did not notice any issues that had been reported on the internet so far with debouncing. Things I liked: - Perfect sized mouse for me somewhere between a small to medium sized mouse which in strikes a good balance for comfort, gaming, and portability on the go. - Quality gaming mouse switches and optical sensor - Lightweight - Clean aesthetics, size, and does not feel cheap - Adjustable DPI (Configurable in their mouse software too!) - Switchable Bluetooth, Wired, or 2.4Ghz Dongle modes - USB-C Charging - Scroll wheel feels excellent - Changeable lower half Shell of the mouse and magnetic! - Includes gaming mouse stick on grip pads, extra skates, and extra alternative lower half shell. Thank goodness Fantech included a solid lower half shell replacement as I personally do not like the Swiss cheese look just to keep a little more weight down. - Storage compartment for USB dongle Things I feel Fantech could improve: - DPI adjustment button moved to top of mouse below the scroll wheel - Mouse scroll wheel tilt for scrolling left and right - Use less clicky left and right switches to tune down the noise a slight notch for a more premium feel - Battery percentage remaining status indicator on the mouse via led Other mice used: Logitech G903 Lightspeed Logitech G502 Logitech MX518

> 24 hourI enjoyed this mouse before it stopped working after less than 3 months of use. Perfect egg shape and hump size for my hand and fingertip grip style, not to mention the free grip tape makes the mouse even more comfortable to hold. The software is also good. My only complaint is the quality of life is either insanely short or I got a defective mouse because it stopped charging and working completely. Bought the mouse April 2023, stopped working June 2023. Fantech tech support has been unresponsive. Disappointed.

> 24 hourI wound up switching to this mouse because my Razer Orochi V2 had an issue with parasitic battery drain when the mouse was powered off. This is everything that the Orochi V2 did right, and it is also a better implementation of everything that Razer fell short on. Kailh GM8.0 mouse clicks, Huano Switches on the side buttons, TTC Gold scroll wheel, and a Pixart 3395 sensor. If I stopped here it would already have beat the Orochi. But, Fantech didnt stop there. They also gave it a wonderful long braided cable for to charge the mouse over USB-C. To top it all off they made it slightly bigger than the Orochi, and helped her shave some weight and brought her down to 59 grams. This really is the perfect Egg Shape mouse, and if you like Egg Shapes then you will be pleased with this mouse.

> 24 hourOverall good mouse. For me this mouse does its job. Its very lite so if that is what you like this is for you. I use it wired, though you have the option to use Bluetooth or wifi dongle. You also get two covers one with holes one without. You get spare skates as well. I decided to buy other skates but honestly the stock ones are good too.

> 24 hourThe left click on both my units are defective. The cutout on the left mouse button does not allow enough room to clear the side buttons, causing it to creak.. I am very disappointed as this is a very good shape for those who felt the Orochi was too small.

> 24 hourIve been using this mouse for a a few months and this is definitely my favorite new mouse that Ive tried (previously used gpro-x, model o wireless, and original gro wired non hero version ) my favorite mouse is still the original gpro, its just the perfect shape and size of you want to finger tip/claw grip. With this mouse the mid bump is just slightly too high so the top part of my palm slightly bumps it. The left side has a small indent for your thumb and it feels just alright. I like the side buttons although they do feel a bit mushy/cheap, and the main clicks feel very heavy at first, but after some use they soften out and arent as loud, but still very loud compared to the gpro-x. Coming from the gpro super light as my previous mouse, it took a lot longer to get used to this mouse than I thought. For about 2 weeks I straight up felt like I didnt even know how to hold it even though the wired gpro was the first gaming mouse I used and used it for over 2 years. Compared to the model o wireless and the gpro which I both used for only 1 year each, going back to a claw grip/fingertip grip was hard to get back into. It took me about a month/month and a half to get fully back into the shape so my hand would naturally grip the mouse. Performance wise, once I got back into with the shape, Ive been playing the best/most consistent ive played probably since the gpro wired. I think smaller mice give you better control compared to larger mice and not having to palm grip the mouse gives you better target acquisition in game. As for the mouse it self, battery life for the first 3 or so months was a solid week, but afterward, its currently at the point of maybe 4-5 days of battery life. Pretty disappointing, but as long as it doesnt get worse than this, its fine. As for the sensor it feels pretty good, coming from the hero sensor from Logitech. Tracking felt really good, its snappy and feels very 1:1 and Im much more of a fan of these mouse feet compared to the hard plastic feeling of the gpro-x (although I still prefer model Os mouse feet). The reason its not 5 stars is basically some creaking after 3 months on the side walls, sometimes the back plate also creaks, and the left click also sometimes makes a slight creaking sound. Its not all the time, it comes and goes day to day for some reason. And also the battery life getting worse after just a few months. As of this review they also put out a firmware update that allows you to disable the motion sync and from my testing after a week, is that it feels even better with it off. Everything felt more controlled, but it might just be placebo. Ive definitely still been playing very consistent, which is a good thing. Overall Im very much a fan of this mouse, although if youve ever tried the original wired gpro, this is still a ways a way from that. Until they make a refreshed wireless version of it the search will still continue to get that perfect mouse shape and size back in my hand.
