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 Logitech MX Vertical and EVGA Torq X5L, 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, mice have different utilization aim, MX Vertical is meant to be Ergonomic mouse while Torq X5L, instead, Gaming mouse. The first one is younger, 6 years old, being released in the 2018, while Torq X5L is older, 10 years old, being released in the 2014. The production age difference is 4 year(s). This makes the MX Vertical kind of 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 Torq X5L mouse, MX Vertical is ~39.50 mm (or ~1.56 in) Shorter, ~14.30 mm (or ~0.56 in) Wider and ~81.00 mm (or ~3.19 in) Higher, which makes it, overally, 55.8 mm (or 2.20 in) way bigger and better suiting greater hands.

Considering the weight, Logitech MX Vertical is 32% heavier, a difference of 43.00 g (0.09 lbs), which can be considered very significant. We do not express a particular preference for heavier or lighter mice, being this a completely personal objective preference. Anyway, both mice does not offer weight personalization .

Regarding the Ergonomy, MX Vertical is meant to be Right-handed while Torq X5L is Ambidextrous. They offer different grip, Palm grip, Claw grip by MX Vertical while Torq X5L has Claw grip, Fingertip grip; however, the degree of adaptability is the same and equal to 2.

• Sensor and Latencies 🐭⏱️

Let's now compare Logitech MX Vertical sensor with the one of EVGA Torq X5L. The two mice do not share the same sensor technology, that is Optical for the first one, Laser for the second one; they also have different sensor model: Darkfield equipped by MX Vertical and Avago ADNS-9800 used by Torq X5L. 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 MX Vertical provides 3600 DPI/CPI, while Torq X5L offers 7800 DPI/CPI, meaning that the last one has way larger range. Consider picking up the one having 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, Torq X5L is offering 51% better Max Resolution, 4200 More DPI/CPI.

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.

MX Vertical has a Polling Rate of 125 Hz, in other words it reports data to computer 1 time every 8.00 ms, while Torq X5L is characterized by 1000 Hz or an input every 1.00 ms, making this last one having 88% better Polling Rate. Lastly, the Lift Off distance of MX Vertical shows an higher value, 2.4 mm, a significant difference of 0.90 mm. Anyway, Torq X5L offers adjustable lift off distance through software.

Click and Shift Latencies

Logitech MX Vertical has lower click latency than EVGA Torq X5L, a not so small difference of 1.90 ms, 14% better Click Latency, which can be evaluated slightly significant, in terms of compared performance. 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 the mice shift latency, since the data of Torq X5L is missing. Contact us to request priority data update. However, MX Vertical has a shift latency of 14.1 ms which can be considered above the average, compared to a medium quality mouse.

• Other Features 📎

Let's now have a look, finally, to the general features of the two mice. They are equipped with different Switch Technology, MX Vertical has Mechanical while Torq X5L has Omron; The Feet Material is the same, PTFE. Considering the available Number of Buttons, 7 offered by first mouse and 8 offered by the second one, a small difference of 1 that can be considered important or not depending on the utilization purpose. In the end, the feature offered by Logitech MX Vertical is On board Memory, while EVGA Torq X5L is giving On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB.
