Razer Viper Mini Ultralight Gaming Mouse: Fastest Gaming Switches - 8500 DPI Optical Sensor - Chroma RGB Underglow Lighting - 6 Programmable Buttons - Drag-Free Cord - Classic Black

I tend to be an overly thorough shopper on Amazon. For this purchase, I looked at hundreds of user reviews, dozens of mice, and looked at many pages of expert opinions and benchmark tests. It is honestly kind of a headache to deal with every time I buy something, but I do end up being well informed. My criteria were high value to cost ratio, improved ergonomics from a basic style mouse, excellent performance and at least 2 extra buttons with actual usable placement. I've had the Viper Mini for 7-8 months.First off, I really hesitated getting this because of the "Mini" moniker. In reality, this mouse is a bit longer and taller than the crap Amazon Basics mouse my work provided me, which I needed to replace. So when they say mini, they mean smaller than a full size Razer Viper, but not small compared to your average regular mouse. One big thing that stood out to me is that this mouse is the _only_ one in Rocket Jump Ninja's top 10 list even _remotely_ near the $20 price range. I believe the next cheapest is at least $60. RJN seems to be utterly _obsessed_ with computer mice. He has tried more than I will ever use in my lifetime. There were plenty of other factors leading me to this mouse, but RJN placing it in the top 10, among limited production run pro mice with honeycomb shells for weight efficiency that you can't even get anymore, and mice costing over $100, is certainly a ringing endorsement.Right out of the box, you'll be treated to a noticeable increase in smoothness and responsiveness thanks to the DPI options and polling rate compared to an average office mouse, and even impressive compared to previous gaming mice I have owned. I was pleasantly surprised by the Synapse software, really expecting to get the normal bloated pack-in software offering, but it is clean, does not appear to hog resources, and makes changing DPI levels, setting macros, and creating RGB color patters very very easy. After getting a good spread of DPI levels set up, I mostly cared about the macros. It is like magic. Try to spot something you do multiple times per day and set up a mouse macro for it. You'll impress yourself and maybe your friends (though lets face it, if you are reading this kind of review we probably don't have any friends to impress in person anyway).Oddly, when I use different mice, like my kids' gaming mouse, or my wife's Apple Magic Mouse, they immediately feel frustratingly sluggish and unresponsive. I am not a DPI freak because frankly jacking up my sensitivity only makes me victim to my own occasionally spastic fine motor skills, so I have to assume the polling rate allows me to comfortably use higher DPI settings than usual or something. Obviously, the Magic Mouse at least is capable of matching these levels of sensitivity, so I have to assume that the Viper Mini has acclimated me to more responsive settings than the average folk. I don't know that this conveys me any particular benefit, in gaming or otherwise, but it was interesting to note for I usually find others' mice to be too sensitive, if anything.I also have noticed that the dull ache of wrist fatigue, which I used to get after long hours of work or cowardly skulking in the bushes of Tarkov with a basic mouse, have not happened in a long time, and I fully credit the ergonomics of the Viper Mini with that, because otherwise my setup is identical. I am also glad this didn't come with a removeable tray of small weights to change around. I found those to be completely useless in 2 previous mice, and I am glad the trend is moving toward lightweight.If there was one thing I would change, it would be to trade the 2 side buttons for 1 large red side button with crosshairs marked on it, because at the end of the day beneath all the trappings, I am naught but a simple manchild enamored of cheap and tasteless pleasures. That and I personally don't make use of 2 extra side buttons. One dangerous weaponized one always under my thumb would be fine. However, that is just a gross preference of mine, and certainly not a knock against the Viper Mini.Bottom line, as long as this mouse remains at or near this price, I won't be bothering with basic mice at all, when for just a bit more I could have an excellent mouse. Likewise, it is hard to see spending more for a gaming mouse with more features, unless I want a different form factor or buttons for some specific thing. I don't think you can go wrong with the Viper Mini, and if you do, at least you aren't out a ton of money.

I got this mouse because I have small hands, and it works really well. Connecting it is super easy (just plug in the USB cord to your device) and you can uninstall any of the bloatware that comes with it. The lifespan of the mouse seems to be really good, I've had it for almost three years now and it shows no signs of slowing down (no lag/performance issues). The only downside I can think of is that there isn't any Bluetooth connectivity, but it's wired so that's just how the product is made.

3 años y sigue funcionando perfectamente, como un mes estuvo fallando el scroll pero de ahí siguió funcionando perfectamente.

For the amount of money you pay the mouse is worth it. The mouse functions very nice and the dpi buttons are very convenient. The mouse is very light and and easy to setup.

It is fast in functioning and no lagging at all

For being just under $20.00 on the current sale, I believe you cannot find a better mouse than this. I have owned an Imperator, a Black Mamba, and a Copperhead in the past; then vowed never to buy Razer again because all ended up with double clicking issues within less than a year with only casual use. I went with a Mionix Avior Pro, only to end with the same issues within the same time-frame as the Razer mice. I then went with a Logitech G303 Daedalus Apex -- same shilt. Then it hit me: every one of these mice used Omron switches. I then vowed never to buy anything with an Omron switch. Even my dad's cheap TECKNET wireless mouse has outlasted the aforementioned 'pros'. I ended up getting a Redragon M-711 FPS in 2020 because it used an optical switch for clicking, something I had never seen used before in mice. It is still good as new after two years, without any defect or clicking issues. However, I wanted to get a quality compact mouse for my laptop to replace my TECKNET mouse because of its low DPI and its lack of pointer precision. When I saw that this Razer used a good optical sensor and *optical switches*, I knew I had something to fulfill my desire, finally. This mouse is not really 'mini' as another user noted, but is indeed a compact mouse compared to what we could call 'full-size' gaming mice. I like the lightweight drag-free cord. It really works, but causes me to question its durability. When packing the mouse for travel, I will have to take care in wrapping the cord. I like the mock powder-coated matte black plastic exterior, which dominates the majority of its surface. I like the symmetrical, neutral design, which I believe is most versatile for adapting to any mouse-grip style. The mouse comes default with five DPI presets in the center button, maxing out at 6400 DPI. This irritated me because I did not want to install their privacy-violating cloud-based Synapse spyware (read their policy). I wanted to use this mouse at max DPI (8500). So, I installed it without any of their bullshit add-ons, adjusted the DPI presets and then disabled all Razer services in MSConfig as well as set custom filters in my firewalls to block all ins and outs on their for-profit data-mining operation for Google Analytics, et al. I may try uninstalling and deleting all Razer system files and registries and see if my presets still hold--that would be ideal. I hope this review helps you in choosing a good mouse for your needs. Long story short: Stay away from OMRON switches, do look into optical switched mice, screw Google, screw Razer for railroading users into their cloud control system, declare your independence and seek God with all your heart and mind (you'll find Him); and if you don't want to, pray for a new heart and a new mind that does want to -- "And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you." (Psalm 9, verse 10).

Realmente un buen ratón. Quizá dura más que el Logitech 203, pues lo compré antes y sigue funcionando, frente al otro que lo debí dar de baja.
