    The Razer DeathAdder V2 Pro is an excellent wireless gaming mouse. Its design is nearly identical to the Razer DeathAdder V2, but it now has wireless connectivity, and it can pair to two devices simultaneously for better multitasking.

    The Razer DeathAdder V2 is an excellent FPS gaming mouse. It looks and feels almost identical to the Razer DeathAdder Elite, but has a much-improved cable, better feet, and a profile switch button.

    The Razer DeathAdder V2 is an excellent FPS gaming mouse. Its click latency is extremely low, and it has a very wide customizable CPI range and high max polling rate. All of its buttons can be reprogrammed, and it's comfortable enough to use for long gaming marathons.

    Is razer deathadder v2 worth it?
    luvenia_okeefe
    about 2 years ago
    If you're desperate for that 0.2ms response time or need 20000 DPI, then go for it. On its own merits though, despite the coarse shell which is clever and great for gaming, but not my cup of tea for other uses, the DeathAdder V2 is an incredible mouse that you'll struggle to outperform at this price range.

    The Razer DeathAdder V2 Mini is an excellent wired gaming mouse. It's a smaller version of the Razer DeathAdder V2, and it's one of the lightest mice we've tested, making it great for FPS gaming and ultra-light gaming.

    mila_schamberger

    The Deathadder V2 has optical switches, a.k.a., it uses lasers instead of traditional buttons. So it is literally impossible for it to develop double clicking over time.

    The top reason why we love DeathAdder as a mouse for drag clicking would be the switches. The mechanical switches Razer used to make this mouse can support up to 50 million clicks.

Essentially, the DeathAdder V2 X Hyperspeed is the budget version of the DeathAdder V2 Pro. Running either on an AA or AAA-battery, the V2 X Hyperspeed has up to 235 hours of battery life in 2.4 GHz mode and up to 615 hours using Bluetooth. PixArt's PAW3319 sensor, mechanical switches for the main buttons rated for 60 million clicks, and pure PTFE feet round things off.
