Razer's attention to detail is well known throughout the world of PC gaming, and the Deathadder is a testament to that reputation. This is a minor annoyance, and I'll freely admit that it's knit-picking. The buttons, of course, are there for a gamer to customize at his leisure, but the default on the buttons will cause browsers to advance and return, leading to some minor headaches when just reading through a forum or article. I'm used to having gaming mice that have the buttons a little higher and I found myself accidentally clicking these buttons just out of reflex from feeling them on my thumb. If I had just one complaint about the mouse, it would be the location of the side buttons. The sensitivity and quickness of the buttons can be changed with Synapse 2.0 of course, but even the default setting is perfectly reasonable for a plug and play device. Responsiveness has little to no issue with double-clicking, whether you're in game or just doing regular web browsing. The sensitivity and durability of the primary buttons on the Deathadder is impressive as well. What's nice, though, is that even with Synapse 2.0 downloaded, gamers can control the DPI setting on the fly with the quick access buttons to jump between settings. The mouse is plug and play, though it's an absolute must to get the aforementioned Synapse 2.0 to truly have full control over what the mouse has to offer. With Synapse 2.0, a Razer proprietary software, customizing the mouse has never been easier and saving your profile is as simple as it gets. I run a dual monitor setup myself, so having a higher DPI setting is something I'm used to just to be able to jump from one monitor to the next quickly with little movement. The 6400dpi 4G Optical Sensor is fully customizable, so gamers can pick and choose the response that they need, based on their setup. The mouse itself main feel a little grainy to the touch from the design, but that passes quickly once usage begins. The mouse just feels comfortable and responsive right away. The first thing that jumps out is the outstanding control that the Deathadder gives a gamer.

While using the word 'perfection' is an adjective I rarely, if ever, use to describe anything in the gaming industry, I will say that the Razer Deathadder is a sleek and sexy choice for any gamer who is looking for response, performance, and reliability out of a PC gaming mouse.Īs is custom with accessory reviews, we will start out with the official specifications of the Deathadder.
