Introduction

Darmoshark Logo


Darmoshark is a peripherals company based in China. Conceived primarily for fingertip grip, the ambidextrous M5 is effectively a sized-up G-Wolves HSK Pro. At 38 g, the M5 weighs a decent bit more, however. PixArt's PAW3395 sensor capable of 26,000 CPI is used, along with Kailh switches of the white transparent shell, white plunger variety, rated for 100 million actuations. In wireless operation, polling rates of up to 8000 Hz are supported when using the latest firmware. Aside from 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth is also present. The feet are made of pure PTFE, and a replacement set along with a set of grip tape are included in the box. The usual customization options are found within software, including for the (very) basic RGB lighting. The M5 is available in either black or white.
