Graphs Description The Physical Characteristics comparison is just a viewable representation of the devices' length, width, height and weight. Sensor, Latency and Other Features are, instead, computed within the range 0-->100, taking into account if the variable is getting better with the increase of its value (e.g the highest max DPI, the better it is) or vice versa (the lowest Click Latency, the better); for example, a score of 50 for both devices means they are equal, scores of 70 and 30 mean that first one better. So, the data are homogeneous to provide immediate meaning, higher bar(s) means better value(s). An empty graph means that there is not enough data to compute that comparison (one value or both are missing).

Final Vs Words

Aiding our visitors to the final choice between the mice.

This final paragraph will help you in the decision making process, between Gigabyte Aorus M5 and Trust GXT 160 Ture, and in selecting the mouse that is performing better and best suits your needs. We are aware that every user has own needs and preferences, due to this each mouse could be better for some features and worse for other ones. The purpose of the text is to highlight this possibility and generate an "overall score" for a purchase decision.

First of all, both mice share the same utilization aim, Gaming mouse. The first one is younger, 6 years old, being released in the 2018, while GXT 160 Ture is older, 7 years old, being released in the 2017. The production age difference is 1 year(s). This makes the Aorus M5 a bit more attractive in terms of freshness.

• Dimensions, Weight, Ergonomy 📐⚖️🫳

When it comes to evaluate mice dimensions, you should take into consideration the size of your hand and check if it would properly fit it or not. In this case, you should check which mice would be the fittest. Compared to GXT 160 Ture mouse, Aorus M5 is ~2.00 mm (or ~0.08 in) Shorter, ~Same Width and ~1.00 mm (or ~0.04 in) Higher, which makes it, overally, 1 mm (or -0.04 in) different in size and not significantly influencing the choice based on own's hand size.

Considering the weight, Gigabyte Aorus M5 is 22% lighter, a difference of 33.00 g (0.07 lbs), which can be considered quite significant. We do not express a particular preference for heavier or lighter mice, being this a completely personal objective preference. However, Aorus M5 offers weight personalization (addable weights or editable shape) while GXT 160 Ture does not.

Regarding the Ergonomy, both mice are meant to be used with your right hand. They offer different grip, Palm grip, Claw grip, Fingertip grip by Aorus M5 while GXT 160 Ture has Palm grip; the first one can be considered more adaptable, with a greater number of grip possibilities equal to 3 instead of the 1 offered by the other one.

• Sensor and Latencies 🐭⏱️

Let's now compare Gigabyte Aorus M5 sensor with the one of Trust GXT 160 Ture. The two mice share the same sensor technology, that is Optical, but different sensor model: PMW3389 equipped by Aorus M5 and Avago A3050 used by GXT 160 Ture. It is very important to say that, although tech and model sometimes coincide, the assembly and composition of interior circuits might result in different specs and latencies.

Resolution, Max Acceleration and Max Tracking, Polling Rate and Lift Off
The mice offer different resolution range (DPImax - DPImin), the Aorus M5 provides 15950 DPI/CPI, while GXT 160 Ture offers 3750 DPI/CPI, meaning that the first one has way larger range. Consider picking up the sensitivity range that mostly suits your needs, depending on the aim (Gaming/Business) but also the kind of game you are going to use it mostly (e.g. FPS is different than RTS or MOBA). If you need a higher precision mouse, meaning that for the same length of shift the mouse will recognize more movement, "reading" more dots per inch and, in other words, will move faster on the screen, Aorus M5 is offering 75% better Max Resolution, 12000 More DPI/CPI.

As for the Maximum Acceleration, which measures the maximum pull force in G(s) that the sensor can trace before inconsistencies occur, Aorus M5 shows a better value, 50 G, a significant difference of 30 G. Going on, taking into account the Maximum Tracking Speed, the velocity (inches per second) that the mouse can move at before it starts to loose track and cause anomalies, Aorus M5 shows a preferable value, 400 IPS, a great difference of 340 IPS. Take into account that max G and max IPS mostly affect activities requiring very fast mouse shift, together with the shift latency that we will analyse further in this section.

They have a Polling Rate of 1000 Hz, in other words they report data to computer 1 time every 1.00 ms. Lastly, the Lift Off distance of GXT 160 Ture shows an higher value, 2.5 mm, a great difference of 1.30 mm. Anyway, Aorus M5 offers adjustable lift off distance through software.

Click and Shift Latencies

At the moment there is no available data to compare the mice click latency, since the data of GXT 160 Ture is missing. We apologize for the inconvenience, you can request priority data update through the contact page. However, Aorus M5 has a click latency of 15.8 ms which can be considered not so good, compared to a medium quality mouse. Anyway, we feel it is important to underline that the differences in latencies are often more perceptible from the machine's point of view rather than human's, reducing the real impact of these values and deviations. At the moment there is no available data to compare Aorus M5 and GXT 160 Ture shift latency. Contact us to request priority data update.

• Other Features 📎

Let's now have a look, finally, to the general features of the two mice. They are equipped with different Switch Technology, Aorus M5 has Omron while GXT 160 Ture has Unknown; The Feet Material is different, Aorus M5 (PTFE) and GXT 160 Ture (UPE). Considering the available Number of Buttons, 7 offered by first mouse and 7 offered by the second one, a no difference of 0 that can be considered important or not depending on the utilization purpose. In the end, the features offered by Gigabyte Aorus M5 are On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB, while Trust GXT 160 Ture is giving On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB.
