Razer DeathAdder Gaming Mouse Review

The DeathAdder, aside from having a great name, does not appear too much different from Razer’s other mice. The main difference between it and the other mice is the use of Razer’s 3G infrared sensor, a technology that they claim is far superior to other optical mice. Razer’s designed did not opt for a laser mouse, like on the Copperhead or Logitech popular G5, but rather went to an infrared sensor, which is a form of optical sensor.

..There is no question about it, the DeathAdder is a fine mouse. It performed well under all conditions and is very well suited for gaming, even the fast and loose low-sensitivity gaming that so many mice have trouble with. The new sensor worked flawlessly and delivered hours of high performance gaming. If the mouse has any flaws they are that it has five buttons when some people want seven, that it is rather expensive, and, the only major one, that there are no on-the-fly sensitivity adjustments.
