Razer Mamba Elite Wired Gaming Mouse: 16,000 DPI Optical Sensor - Chroma RGB Lighting - 9 Programmable Buttons - Mechanical Switches

This mouse is awesome!Before I bought the Mamba Wireless I used to own a Wired Deathadder Elite, but I noticed that sometimes clicks wouldn't register, so I knew it was time to upgrade. I decided to go wireless this time so that I wouldn't have to deal with anymore cables (Apart from the charging cable), and I think I made a very good choice.For those that complain about the amount of time you get for a full charge, this issue is completely mitigated if you charge the mouse every night before you go to sleep, which is what I do. Every morning I wake up, I have a full charge ready to go. Other than that, the ergonomics for me at least are a bit off since I have slightly bigger hands, but I can still manage with it.Apart from being a great gaming mouse (With all the programmable buttons, profiles, DPI stages, etc etc), it works nicely as a good general purpose mouse.I only have two nitpicks, 1 is that sometimes the lights change when I don't want it to, but I suspect this just might be a result of Synapse 3 not working well, and my other nitpick is how the mouse behaves when you plug it in to charge:- When the charging cable is plugged in directly to the computer and you plug the mouse in, it turns off for a second or two and then comes back on, to which you can continue to use it normally.- When the charging cable is not plugged into the computer (maybe via a brick in an outlet or a power strip that has USB ports (this is how I charge my mouse)), even if the mouse is on, the mouse will turn off and not turn back on.Strange behavior, but concerning how I never use it plugged in but wireless (that's the point, isn't it?), I have had no problems.Overall, I got this mouse on sale for $45, and I think it was a great choice. I would definitely recommend this mouse for others to use.

I play FPS games (for example, Geometry Dash), and because of this, I needed a quality mouse to play with. I found this mouse and purchased it because I needed a wired mouse for quicker reaction time. And because it was cheaper than the wireless version anyway. I was pleased to find out how well it works. Nothing is perfect, and as expected, this mouse has a couple of setbacks, but overall, it works very well.Pros:Very smooth and reactive. It responds on most surfaces.There were no problems setting up Razer Synapse 3, and it was very easy to customize the RGBThe DPI range is quite impressive. While I personally don't go above 4,500 (and usually stick to 1,800), I'm sure it would be useful for other games.It's very durable and has a satisfying click sound.Cons:Due to how the mouse was packaged, the wire likes to coil itself upMy favorite DPI is 1,800, but it feels a little slow, but the next option (4,500) is way too fast. I wish that the DPI was either customized by a slider or digitally set in Razer Synapse.Overall, the Razer Mamba Elite is a very reliable gaming mouse. It's great for those with a lower budget. The purchase of this mouse has driven me to conclude that Razer is a reliable brand.

This was previously Razers top tier mouse. Featuring top of the line everything from sensor to lighting, to being wireless, to having its own stand. The Mamba is what started the trends and was the pinnacle that other mice tried to replicate.However, with this, the second generation, Razer made a dire mistake. They released the Mamba Tournament Edition, trying to cater to hard core gamers, but unfortunately, they chose a laser instead of an optical sensor and it had some performance issues compared to Razers other mice which all used optical sensors and because of this, the mouse got a bad reputation.Razer later released a newer version, updated with THE BEST optical sensor made at the time (still great even today), better than all others, with Omron switches (best at the time and still great today) and it solved all the problems, but by then, the name “Mamba” was synonymous with shitty lasers, and so no one went after it, and there were barely any reviews.But as someone who had a Deathadder that finally bit the dust and wanted an upgrade, after testing out every mouse there was, my choice came down to either the Razer Viper or this Mamba, and the Mamba just felt perfect for my large hands. Thumb buttons were perfect, shape was perfect, and even the side grips were placed so much better than my Death Adder.Additionally, it’s one of the very few Razer mice that offers mouse wheel tilt, which gives it 2 additional buttons to hotkey, which was a game changer in terms of competitive gaming.I still use and adore it to this day and I’ve tried a lot of the latest models and I still like this mouse. If you have large hands, are right handed, and want a somewhat basic mouse with the best sensor (I think it might still be Razers best) and two more programmable buttons than a generic basic mouse, then give it a try. It’s under 100g which, although not as light as a Glorious Model O, it’s still lighter than most none-perforated mice (mice with holes all over it to save material weight).This is still the best mouse in Razers lineup, in my opinion. At the very least, the most underrated.

I have no idea how long ago I bought this but I still have it and it works wonders, granted it doesn't look as pretty as when I bought it but lord, what a good mouse.
