    Is the Razer Deathadder double-clickable?
    craig.abshire
    about 2 years ago
    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.

    jennie
    about 2 years ago
    Yes, the Razer DeathAdder is a good ultra-light gaming mouse, but it's much heavier than what we usually consider an ultra-light mouse. However, this sturdy model is suitable for most hand sizes with any grip type.

    You can change the color of both the scroll wheel and the Razer logo on the palm rest, and set them to either a static color, a color cycle or to sync with a Razer Chroma keyboard. I found it incredibly useful to sync each game profile with a different color, and the process took mere seconds to complete.

    This mouse is specially designed for hours of gameplay to withstand the front of drag clicking. Moreover, its buttons have the durability of 10 million clicks without any glitch. Razer DeathAdder Essential with grip tape is a recommended tool for drag clicking.

    The Razer DeathAdder Elite is a very good gaming mouse that follows the DeathAdder design from previous years. It's great for right-handed people who are looking for a mouse with amazing performance and setting options. It has a sleek gaming design, without overdoing it, and fits almost every hand size and grip.

    Not normally. There is software out there that allows you to lower the debounce time, such as x mouse button control. Generally you shouldn't lower debounce lower than 3 ms or it will start to double click by default.
