Lamzu Maya X + Maya Champion Edition Mice Review

Lamzu have been building their reputation within the peripheral industry for some time now. The company focuses on producing lightweight, performance-centred mice that leave out the gimmicks in pursuit of the perfect peripheral for FPS gaming. Today we’re checking out two from their lineup – the Maya X and the Maya Champion Edition. On paper, these two mice sound very similar, both sporting a PixArt PAW3950 sensor and Omron optical switches. There are differences that could make a big impact though – so can a slight difference in weight and shape change the game?
