Verdict

The Xtrfy M3 is a right-handed ergonomic gaming mouse designed in collaboration with esports professional Emil 'HeatoN' Christensen, featuring a solid 104g build with a rubberised surface for enhanced grip. It is equipped with the Pixart PMW 3310 optical sensor, offering adjustable sensitivity from 400 to 4,000 CPI and a 1,000 Hz polling rate, alongside high-quality Omron main switches for tactile feedback. Main pros include its comfortable shape for palm and claw grips, durable construction, and reliable 'plug-and-play' design that requires no software. However, notable cons include its relatively high weight by modern standards, lack of customisation software for precise DPI or lift-off distance tuning, and non-adjustable yellow LED lighting.
