The best gaming mouse if you are not obsessed and want expensive ones without reason. I got it because I had the original when it came out, and now with work, my wrist started to hurt. As soon as I switched to this one, in 4 days my wrist got better.
This particular mouse is very good and comfortable in the hand. The negatives are that after 1 year the problems you will have with it start to show. It started having issues with the scroll wheel and the only way to fix it is to use compressed air, and I have started having problems with the left button, which has begun to feel strange.
This gaming mouse is one of the best purchases I have made for my setup. I have had it for a few months and I haven't encountered any issues. One thing that excited me is how lightweight it is, and for me, this is an important thing in a gaming mouse. The RGB is perfect and I recommend it to everyone. It was worth every penny.
I have gone through 3-4 gaming mice in the price range of 50-100 euros, and this one is, if not better, the same. Don't buy a more expensive Razer mouse for the lights; the mouse, unlike a keyboard, is covered by your hand while in use, so it's not worth it. I have found that the DeathAdder Essential (being the same shape and size as at least the old DeathAdder Chroma, Pro, etc.) has a very good shape and performance, and I have no reason to want anything more, and for 20 euros, it's really a no-brainer for anyone. As for durability, I have bought the same mouse 3-4 times now (I don't know if I'm forgetting one or not), and except for the last one that lasted only 1 year before showing problems with the scroll wheel, they have each lasted 3-5 years, which is what I would expect from any mouse, and I say again, for 20 euros, NO BRAINER. Finally, to compare it with the Logitech G502, which is the main reason anyone would not choose a Razer mouse. It's a subjective matter, but for me, the Razer scroll that you feel step by step is much better for gaming than the looser-feeling scroll wheels I have seen when I tried Logitech.
It is incredibly durable and comfortable in my hand. I have had it for 3 years and it works perfectly. Overall, this company has very good products, I also have a keyboard for my PC!
Disappointed, after 2 months, if not less, the scroll broke and when you scroll down, it goes up, meaning the opposite... I expected something better from Razer
I have had it for about 5 months and it has started to have problems. Firstly, as I read from other reviews, I noticed that the problem with the wheel is not only with me, it does its own thing and goes to the opposite side that I want to scroll or just goes wherever. Also, on the back of the mouse, the bottom "sensor" (I don't know the exact name of it) has come off and it is difficult to move it when I use it. I tried to put it back in its place but nothing. I do not recommend it, it is a cheap mouse that because it is Razer, you think it will be good. But in a few months, you want another one
In less than a year, the wheel started doing its own thing. The page goes up and down almost without any input. Also, much cheaper construction materials compared to the Elite (all plastic parts, a harder clicking sound), which I had for 10 years before switching to this one. It was a mistake to save money and go for the Essential.
After 2-3 years I faced serious problems that forced me to get a new one. However, during this period the mouse satisfied me because it did its job in gaming and regular aspect excellently but it showed some issues with its quality. The scroll wheel started squeaking like grandma's supermarket cart after a few months, which I ended up fixing somehow to make the sound more discreet. The top part of the mouse had come loose a bit, meaning it wobbled right and left, which objectively is not a big deal, but the scroll wheel click simply gave up and stopped working. Otherwise, the software is fine, it is very cheap and worth its money since it lasted me so long, the size and button placement are perfect for normal hands but the problems I mentioned from the beginning are that the left click and sensor stopped working properly. To be honest, I would buy it again since I'm not keen on spending at least 50 euros on another one, as this one is only 20 and satisfied me for about 2 years without serious complaints.
First time Razer mouse. Excellent for its money. Much better than several more expensive of other companies. Only it doesn't have a button to change the resolution.
We start with the fact that it is the cheapest gaming mouse from Razer. I have had it for less than a year and in a very short period of time, the scroll started acting up. Whether I scroll up or down, it goes both ways simultaneously. After a while, even the left click sometimes registers as two clicks instead of one. Fortunately, the most important right click works perfectly fine! It has never fallen or been hit, and it has a very nice feel and a cool green LED
VFM, but do not expect a high quality mouse that will make a difference in competitive gaming for this price.
Very good for office tasks and non competitive gaming.
Pair it with a good mouse pad to experience its 6400dpi.
On the right is the Razer Deathadder 1st generation that I bought in 2007, which means 17 years ago. It has been used in countless CS tournaments, has taken a lot of beating, and still works flawlessly to this day. On the left is the Razer DeathAdder Essential, purchased in 2022, which after 6 months, automatically double-clicks every time you make a single left click. In other words, it's tragic and worth throwing away, because even a mouse from JUMBO won't give you this dangerous absurdity. Thank you.
There is no better value for money gaming mouse and when I say gaming, I mean hardcore gaming. Specifically, I play League of Legends and this mouse takes a lot of beating. I had it for 2 years and yesterday I broke it after a very strong hit. The left click wasn't working properly, it needed more force. So, today I bought the same one again for €23 and I am very satisfied. Thank you, Razer
I have it for just two days, the sound that the wheel makes when scrolling is very annoying. Overall, it is a stable, simple mouse that is worth its money. I returned it immediately, I would not recommend it to anyone as it seems poorly designed.
I have had the mouse for 1 week and it is very good for the money it costs, it is comfortable in the hand, it does what it promises and it does not make much noise. However, when I scroll, the wheel makes an annoying noise. Nevertheless, it is worth buying and I highly recommend it.
In less than a month of use, the left click broke before I even had a chance to use it for gaming, only for office work, with minimal clicks. It randomly registers a release while I'm holding it down, quite frequently.
I have it for about 2 months and I use it daily mainly for gaming and it's excellent!
It hasn't given me any problems and it has a long cable (over 1.50 meters).
Just so you know, it doesn't have RGB, it's just plain green.
