Attack Shark R6 specifications and in-depth review

Attack Shark R6

Manufacturer: Attack Shark

The Attack Shark R6 is an ambidextrous gaming mouse built around versatile wireless connectivity, supporting USB, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth 5.2. At just 39 grams, it takes a notably lightweight approach to its form factor, measuring 118 mm in length, 60 mm in width, and 38 mm in thickness. The mouse is rechargeable and can be used while charging, with a rated battery life of 200 hours.

Under the hood, the R6 uses the PixArt PAW3950 Max sensor, which supports a DPI range from 50 to 42000, a maximum tracking speed of 750 IPS, and a maximum acceleration of 50G. The polling rate reaches 8000 Hz, and all six buttons are programmable, including two side buttons and a dedicated DPI switching button. The design omits RGB lighting, extra weights, and onboard memory profiles, keeping the feature set focused on core performance and portability.

Pros
  • Tri-mode connectivity via USB, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth 5.2 offers flexible usage across different setups
  • At 39 g, the mouse is exceptionally light, reducing hand fatigue during extended sessions
  • A 200-hour battery life means infrequent charging interruptions during regular use
  • The mouse can be used while charging, so a low battery does not force a break in usage
  • All 6 buttons are fully programmable, giving complete control over input configuration
  • The ambidextrous shape accommodates both left- and right-handed users
Cons
  • No onboard memory profiles means settings cannot be stored directly on the mouse for use across different devices
  • Wireless charging is not supported, requiring a physical cable connection to recharge
  • The absence of RGB lighting may be a drawback for users who prefer visual customization
  • No profile switching button is available on the mouse itself
  • Extra tunable weights are not included, so the 39 g fixed weight cannot be adjusted to personal preference
  • The warranty period is limited to one year
Who is this for?

The Attack Shark R6 is well suited to users who prioritize lightweight, low-fatigue operation, particularly those who game or work across long sessions where a 39 g body makes a tangible difference in comfort. Its tri-mode connectivity — USB, 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth 5.2 — makes it a practical choice for people who switch frequently between devices or setups. The 200-hour battery life and ability to use while charging also make it a strong fit for those who need uninterrupted availability without frequent power management. The ambidextrous shape further broadens its appeal to both left- and right-handed users.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who rely on onboard memory profiles to carry personalized settings between different systems will find this mouse limiting, as it stores no profiles on-device. Those who value visual desk aesthetics through RGB lighting will also find the design lacking in that regard. Additionally, users who prefer fine-tuned physical customization — such as adjusting mouse weight to match their preference — will be unable to do so, since no extra weights are included and the 39 g build is fixed.

The Attack Shark R6 uses an ambidextrous shape, making it suitable for both left- and right-handed use, and comes in at a weight of just 39 g. Its dimensions are 118 mm in height, 60 mm in width, and 38 mm in thickness, with a total volume of 269.04 cm³. The included cable measures 1.8 m in length. The mouse does not feature RGB lighting, a tilting scroll wheel, a thumb scroll wheel, or extra tunable weights, keeping the design straightforward and uncluttered.

Final Verdict

The Attack Shark R6 presents a focused and deliberate design built around two defining qualities: an exceptionally lightweight 39 g ambidextrous body and versatile tri-mode wireless connectivity that keeps it adaptable across a range of setups and user types. Backed by a capable PixArt PAW3950 Max sensor, a 200-hour battery life, and full button programmability, it delivers a well-rounded specification sheet for a wireless gaming mouse. Its limitations — no onboard memory profiles, no RGB, and no weight customization — reflect clear trade-offs in favor of simplicity and portability rather than feature depth. For users whose priorities align with those trade-offs, the R6 makes a compelling and coherent case for itself.
