Third-party reviews

What customers like about Inphic X5

  • Silent main clicks (left and right buttons) reduce noise by roughly 90%
  • Built-in 500mAh rechargeable battery eliminates the need for AA/AAA batteries
  • Lightweight and compact design (approx. 66g) suitable for travel
  • Adjustable DPI settings (800/1200/1600) with a dedicated switching button
  • Broad compatibility via 2.4GHz wireless connection with a plug-and-play USB nano receiver
  • Strong value for money as a budget-friendly productivity or light gaming mouse

What customers don't like about Inphic X5

  • Secondary buttons (side buttons and scroll wheel click) are not silent
  • Reported long-term reliability issues, such as the left click wearing out after months
  • Occasional connectivity or tracking glitches, sometimes requiring a DPI reset to fix
  • Low-profile ergonomic shape may not be ideal for users with a 'claw' grip preference
  • Charging cable fit can be tight or difficult to connect on some units

Verdict

The Inphic X5 is an ultra-lightweight, 66g wireless gaming mouse featuring a distinctive transparent shell and an ergonomic right-handed design (112 x 57.5 x 27mm). It utilizes a 2.4GHz wireless connection for stable performance, supported by a 500mAh rechargeable battery that offers up to 300 hours of life and charges via a convenient Type-C port with a visible battery indicator. Key characteristics include an adjustable optical sensor with four DPI levels (800/1000/1200/1600), a 1000Hz polling rate, and silent-click buttons to reduce noise. Main pros are its extremely portable, slim profile and budget-friendly price point; however, cons include a relatively low maximum DPI compared to flagship gaming mice and the inability to use the device while it is charging.
