Inphic has launched a new gaming mouse that is more about manufacturing than raw specs. The company’s latest model, called the IN10 (also referred to as IN103D) is a 3D-printed mouse that uses a photosensitive resin shell produced through a 3D printing process rather than traditional injection molding.

The most obvious result is the mouse’s biomimetic honeycomb structure. The shell is porous, with ventilation holes designed to improve airflow while keeping the overall weight down. 

Inphic says different areas of the shell are tuned with varying levels of softness and hardness to maintain comfort and grip depending on where your hand rests. At around 72 grams, the mouse is also lightweight to work with.

High-end internals with tri-mode connectivity

Inside, the IN10 is built around a custom Inphic KP950B main control chip paired with PixArt’s PAW3950 optical sensor. The sensor supports a DPI range from 50 up to 30,000, adjustable through software. 

Inphic has also opted for TTC Qinglong optical switches, rated for up to 100 million clicks, along with a TTC Qinglong Ice & Fire scroll wheel encoder. High-purity PTFE feet round out the hardware details. 

Connectivity is another area where the IN10 tries to cover all bases. It supports tri-mode operation, including USB-C wired mode at up to 1,000Hz polling, 2.4GHz wireless with polling rates reaching 8,000Hz, and Bluetooth 5.0 for more casual or mobile use. 

The mouse ships with a 1.8-meter braided paracord cable that includes a ferrite core, as well as an 8K nano wireless receiver. Power comes from a built-in 500mAh rechargeable battery.

On the software side, Inphic offers both web-based and desktop clients for adjusting DPI, polling rate, and other settings. Physically, the mouse measures 125 × 62 × 40 mm, suggesting a fairly standard right-handed shape.

Pricing and Availability

The 3D mouse retails at 423.3 yuan in China, which translates to some $60. You can purchase it via JD.com.
