Attack Shark R3

Name: Attack Shark R3
Brand: Attack Shark
SKU: 77053

Manufacturer: Attack Shark

The Attack Shark R3 is a lightweight ambidextrous gaming mouse built around a tri-mode connection setup, supporting USB, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth 5.2. Weighing just 46 grams, it sits on the lighter end of the gaming mouse spectrum and is designed to suit both left- and right-handed users across a range of grip styles. Its rechargeable battery is rated for up to 200 hours of use, and the mouse supports continued operation while charging, reducing interruptions during longer sessions.

At its core, the R3 uses the PixArt PAW3395 sensor, which delivers a maximum tracking speed of 650 IPS, up to 50G of acceleration, and a DPI range spanning from 800 to 26000, adjustable across all six programmable buttons. The polling rate reaches 8000 Hz, and the mouse measures 119.6 mm in length, 61 mm in width, and 36 mm in thickness. It ships with a 1.8-meter cable and carries a one-year warranty, though it does not include onboard memory profiles, RGB lighting, or wireless charging support.

Pros

Ambidextrous shape accommodates both left- and right-handed users
At 46 grams, the mouse is exceptionally light for extended use without fatigue
Tri-mode connectivity via USB, Bluetooth 5.2, and 2.4GHz wireless provides flexible setup options
Battery life is rated at 200 hours, reducing the need for frequent recharging
The mouse can be used while charging, avoiding forced downtime
All 6 buttons are fully programmable, allowing thorough input customization

Cons

No onboard memory profiles, meaning settings cannot be stored directly on the mouse
Does not support wireless charging, requiring a physical cable to recharge
Minimum DPI of 800 may be too high for users who prefer very low sensitivity settings
Lacks RGB lighting, which some users expect from a gaming mouse
No profile switching button, limiting quick switching between configurations on the fly
No tilting or thumb scroll wheel, reducing scrolling flexibility for some workflows

Who is this for?

This mouse is well-suited to users who frequently switch between devices or connection modes, as its tri-mode connectivity via USB, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth 5.2 allows seamless transitions between setups. Its ambidextrous shape and 46-gram weight make it a practical choice for both left- and right-handed users who value low-fatigue handling during extended sessions. The 200-hour battery life and the ability to continue using the mouse while it charges also make it a strong fit for those who need uninterrupted operation across long work or gaming periods.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who rely on onboard memory profiles to carry custom settings between systems will find this mouse limiting, as it stores no profiles on-board. Those who prefer a highly customizable physical experience may also be disappointed by the absence of adjustable weights and a tilting scroll wheel, which are common expectations in feature-rich gaming setups. Additionally, users who work in environments where visual feedback matters — such as low-light setups where RGB lighting aids orientation — will find the mouse lacking in that regard.

Final Verdict

The Attack Shark R3 is a focused, no-frills gaming mouse that makes a clear case for users who prioritize lightweight portability and versatile wireless connectivity over feature density. Its ambidextrous form, 46-gram build, and tri-mode connection support cover the essentials well, and the 200-hour battery life adds genuine long-term convenience. Where it steps back — no onboard profiles, no RGB, no adjustable weights — reflects deliberate trade-offs rather than oversights, pointing to a product aimed at efficiency-minded users rather than those seeking a fully customizable peripheral. For that specific audience, the R3 delivers a coherent and capable package.
