Verdict

The Attack Shark X8 SE is an ultra-lightweight 55g wireless gaming mouse designed for medium to large hands, featuring the PixArt PAW3311 optical sensor with a sensitivity of up to 25,000 DPI, 400 IPS tracking, and 40G acceleration. Key characteristics include tri-mode connectivity (2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth 5.4, and USB-C wired), a 1000Hz polling rate, and durable HUANO Blue Shell Pink Dot switches rated for 80 million clicks. Its main pros are the exceptional battery life of up to 200 hours from a 500mAh battery, a comfortable symmetrical ergonomic shape, and high-performance specs at a budget-friendly price point. However, some cons include a shell that can feel slightly cheap in build quality, the lack of RGB lighting for those who prefer aesthetics, and a 1k polling rate that is lower than the 8k offered by more expensive models in the X8 series.
