Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro Gaming Mouse: 63g Ultra Lightweight - Focus Pro 30K Optical Sensor - Fast Optical Switches Gen-3 - HyperSpeed Wireless - 5 Programmable Buttons - 90 Hr Battery - BlackECOLOGO

As a gamer, I've owned and used many different computer mice. I usually look through some of the best mice money can buy, then compare them with less expensive or no-name brands and see what the differences are. Most of the time, it's just marketing jargons that pollutes the ad, making things seem better than they are.After some pretty extensive research, I purchased this Razer V3 Deathadder Pro and the Logitech G Pro Superlight gaming mouse - both of which stands at the very top of the food chain for gaming mice and are about the same price. Both of these mice are used by professional gamers (depending on which sponsors they're with), and both are extremely light. They both come in white with no RGB, and they also both taunt an outrageously high DPI that literally no one uses. At a glance, both are very comparable in everyway - which I assume you know this if you're looking to buy a mouse this expensive.The Razer V3 DA Pro has much better optimizations in the Synapse software, and while some other reviewers have had issues, my windows 10 and 11 devices all run Synapse perfectly. The mouse comes with a dongle that you can plug the wireless USB piece into, which allows for a better connection to the mouse when there is less space. Even with RF, the signal deteriorates after the first foot or so. As such, I leave my mouse and dongle fairly close to each other. The Logitech software, however, is a total mess and I find it very difficult to navigate. The software also crashes pretty often with Logitech, which has not been an issue with Razer Synapse. Neither of these mice have a DPI button on top, but both allow for customization in the software. The Razer DA V3P has a DPI button that allows you to cycle through the preset DPI options, which I'm glad they've put it on the bottom as I have only accidentally ever hit that on the other mice I use. The Logitech does not have a DPI button at all, but you could configure the side buttons. I use 800 DPI all around and never change it, so it does not affect me either way.I think for most people, ergonomics is what really determines the purchase but it's hard to describe ergonomics to someone who has never held either of these mice. If you have used a Razer Deathadder V2, the previous version, you'll find that the V3 is a completely different feel and design - for the better, at least for me. The Logitech is comfortable, but the Razer feels like an ergo mouse even though it isn't designed as one.Razer's advertising for this mouse is a little misleading. The mouse has a standard polling rate of 1k hz, but with a 40 dollar adapter, you can get a 4k hz polling rate. This is not an option at all with Logitech, as the mouse only has the 1k hz polling rate with no upgrades.Both mice have great skates to help with sliding, and in combination with the super lightweight, it feels even lighter than it is. I did weigh both mice and found that the G Pro is about 5 grams lighter - this is not detectable by my hands when I'm using it.If battery life is important to you, I find both mouse lasts for quite some time even though I'm constantly using them. Razer advertises a slightly longer battery life, and I find that to be mostly true. What Razer doesn't advertise is their charging speeds, as it is in fact much faster than Logitech. You can use either mouse while it's plugged in when they are charging.If you're getting the white variant of either mice, just know that the tape/grip comes only in black.

I've owned this for about a year now and I can say this "gaming" mouse is very comfortable/lightweight in my hand and performs very nicely. I use a palm grip, the clicks are crisp, and the scroll wheel is decent, but no infinity scroll. I do recommend replacing the stock skates with glass skates and then this mouse becomes a perfect 5 out of 5 stars, otherwise it gets a 4.4 with stock skates. I have had 5 other mice over the last couple years and this one is in my top favorite that ties with the Lamzu Maya X (Fnatic) which I also replaced the stock skates with glass. This mouse is bigger/wider than most lightweight mice (and Maya X) which is good for my palm grip. I prefer the Maya X side button layout and click switches but that is more preference than anything. Nice job to Razor because sometimes their products are big misses for me but this one hits just right.

The most comfortable, accurate, and useful mouse I’ve ever owned. Is good for mixed usage with work and productivity as well. No LED’s on the version I purchased.

For starters, I work from home and this mouse is my daily driver. Generally, it's great, especially if you have large hands. It's comfortable to use all day. It's responsive, light, tracks well, and I can't really describe the buttons on it any other way than crisp.Why the one star review then? Razer's quality control, and customer support are absolutely atrocious. About two weeks ago, my mouse started experiencing a mouse wheel issue that appears to be a fairly common. The wheel isn't registering all of the "clicks" when I turn it, leading to very inconsistent scrolling, scrolling up when I'm scrolling down. Considering I'm looking at spreadsheets all day, the issue pretty much makes the mouse unusable for me while I'm working.It's a pretty well documented issue online though, right? It should be easy get replaced, right? Nope.I opened a support case about it on January 9th (at the time of writing this review it's been 16 days since the case was opened), am still having to jump through hoops with support, and still don't have a working mouse. When I first opened the case, everything seemed like it was going to be a quick and easy process. I ended my chat support being told that they'd process an RMA. I gave the associate my address, and was told that I'd get a follow up email about the case. The following morning, I get an email from support asking if I can return the device to the retailer I bought it from. I come back to my Amazon order, and of course there's no way to return something I purchased 4 months ago. Understandable on Amazon's part. 4 months to return something is definitely a bit excessive. I let Razer support know that it's not an option. Below is the response I got:"Thank you for contacting Razer. My name is XXXXXX and I'll be your support agent today.Good day!Thank you for informing me. I am eager to help you out, however, I would like to reiterate that the country you currently reside in is not currently included in Razer's shipping destinations. This is due to local and government regulations and restrictions.But don't worry! Do you happen to have an alternative shipping address within the United States?For reference your case number is XXXXXX-XXXXXXTo update this case, you can reply to this email or use our Razer Support Portal.Unleash and Dive into the world of innovation at Razer Store!"I go back and forth with support for a few days, before my case gets transferred somewhere else. Suddenly the case goes from "we're working on getting you an RMA" to "we need you to jump through some more hoops". New support contact asks me to complete all the basic troubleshooting steps that had been completed in my first interaction with support. Then they ask for a video of the issue, so I connect it back up, and the issue doesn't seem to be happening as frequently as when I first opened the case. It's still an issue, but not happening frequently enough that I can get a good video of the issue. I let support know, and they say no worries, just send it whenever. 2 days later I get a notification that the case had been closed, but if the issue persists, I can reopen the case. No big deal. The issue starts back up REALLY bad two days after the case was closed. I capture the video, and send it to support. The response I get is to start troubleshooting back at square 1 with firmware updates, cleaning the wheel, and hooking the device up to another computer to see if it has the issue on another device.The bottom line is that this mouse is priced as a premium product. I could spend half as much on a mouse that's functionally the same as this one. It shouldn't take two weeks to replace a defective product through warranty, let alone still be stuck in troubleshooting hell with support. Don't be like me. Save yourself the headache of dealing with Razer's support, and strongly consider your other options. At this price point, there really isn't much/anything else that would be out of budget.
