Our Verdict

Ninjutso Origin One X

Pulsar Xlite

The Pulsar Xlite and the Ninjutsu Origin One X are similar ultra-lightweight gaming mice, but the Pulsar has better overall performance. The Pulsar is a wired-only model and somewhat lighter. It also feels sturdier and has mouse feet that glide more smoothly. Performance-wise, it has a much wider CPI range, lower click latency, and you can adjust the CPI precisely by increments of 50, while you can only choose between four default CPI presets on the Ninjutso. The Pulsar also has customization software which the Ninjutso lacks. On the other hand, you can connect the Ninjutso connects either wirelessly with its USB receiver or with its charging cable.
