This mouse does the job really well and also has side buttons which is good for gaming. Only issue is that its quite a big mouse but its easy to get used too. been using for 2/3 weeks.

I bought this as a replacement for my original deathadder which stopped working after many years.
Everything is good and as expected, except the liftoff distance of the sensor, which is way too big, i.e. when playing games and lifting the mouse to reposition, the cursor keeps moving when the mouse is still quite far away from the mousepad.
The original deathadder had a setting to adjust this as part of the razer software, however this new generation deathadder uses the new razer software and does not have the ability to change this setting.

Great mouse, highly recommend and gaming. Our 11 year old’s hand is now well supported and can use the buttons without his hand hurting. Great mouse, highly recommend and gaming. Our 11 year old’s hand is now well supported and can use the buttons without his hand hurting.

Mouse is responsive and ergonomic, would recommend for productivity users not just gaming!
Overall process for click and collect was smooth and easy too. Mouse is responsive and ergonomic, would recommend for productivity users not just gaming!

It's hard to believe this was designed in California and so many have sold. It feels so light and cheap as if you could break it with one hand and it makes my Logitech feel like solid wireless luxury. Also the plastic grips on the side are so tacky it looks like something you only see on knock off items from china or something on Aliexpress 15 years ago. I'm sure the tech is good but you get what you pay for with this thing that feels like a hollow and slippery piece of plastic for kids. The only plus I would give it is that is black with a look that is better than the average mouse. It's hard to believe this was designed in California and so many have sold.

A bit chunky and not as hand friendly as I expected. Does the job though and looks alright, especially for the price. A bit chunky and not as hand friendly as I expected. Does the job though and looks alright, especially for the price.

No complaints really, except this particular model lacks the middle scroll long scroll option which you can switch with the Logitech g900 for example. Nevertheless, it suits my application just fine. Good value. No complaints really, except this particular model lacks the middle scroll long scroll option which you can switch with the Logitech g900 for example.
