The fact Razer didn't change the core of the DeathAdder means there's very little to complain about. Anything not so good about the DeathAdder V2? It's so light you can barely tell it's there, it doesn't snag or drag, and right now it's the closest feeling you'll get to a wireless DeathAdder. It's just as long as on the old DeathAdder, but it's the new SpeedFlex style that debuted on the Viper. While in Synapse, it's business as usual, with, of course, now the new smart tracking and asymmetric cutoff section under calibration.Īnd finally, the new cable deserves a shoutout.
#RAZER DEATHADDER 2013 RECENT UPDATE PC#
If you regularly move between a PC and a laptop, or in Razer's target use case, you travel to LAN events, you can move to another PC and not have to worry about installing Synapse first. Razer Synapse 3 is still used to put together the profiles, but you no longer need it installed on every PC you use the mouse with to use them. It's not a metric you'll physically be able to quantify, but it's there working for you, hopefully making sure you don't miss that crucial headshot.Īlso new in the latest DeathAdder is the onboard storage, with a base mounted profile switch to cycle between up to five different ones.
It keeps the mouse and PC in perfect sync, with the PC always receiving the latest mouse position. You also get customizable landing and lift-off distances to suit your gaming style, and motion sync is a little like Freesync or G-Sync is to displays but on a mouse. The smart features have also made their way to the new DeathAdder, like Smart Tracking that allows the mouse to automatically calibrate itself to whatever surface you're using it on. It has the highest tracking speed and resolution accuracy from any of Razer's mice, and in practice, the DeathAdder V2 feels every bit as sharp as the late 2019 Ultimate mouse the new sensor debuted in. But it's what else Focus+ does that's important. This latest sensor has 20,000 DPI, higher than any other Razer gaming mouse. The sensor is one of the most significant changes, and it's Razer's new Focus+ as first seen on the Viper Ultimate. The DeathAdder V2 now feels nimble, despite its larger form, and while it's still far from Viper-light, gaming is just better without so much heft beneath your palm. At 82g, the DeathAdder V2 is 23g lighter than its predecessor, and in gaming mice, that's a huge diet. That means the new 20,000 DPI Focus+ optical sensor, Razer's optical switches, and new smart features like auto-calibration.īut I want to start with something less glamorous, something that Razer actually took away: weight. Where Razer is on to a winner with the new DeathAdder V2 is that inside, it's got all the new stuff we first saw on the Viper Ultimate and Basilisk Ultimate, while on the outside having that ergonomic body. The core of the DeathAdder V2 is much the same as its predecessor, which means it's ridiculously comfortable to use all day at work or all-day gaming.Īnd that's without considering all the internal upgrades. Underneath you also get new, slightly thicker feet, as seen on the Viper Ultimate and Basilisk Ultimate, along with a profile switching button, and that's all she wrote. This comes into its own when you remap these buttons to other functions, as I do, because it's so much easier to determine which is which.
The only real visual difference (and you'll have to look closely) is that the DPI switches are now more defined, individual buttons that are square, not rectangular, making them easier to feel out. The DeathAdder is one of the most ergonomic, comfortable gaming mice around, and that's still true with the V2. OK, it's still purely a right-handed mouse (at least for the time being), but it really is a case of if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
There's never been anything wrong with the design of the DeathAdder, so rightly, Razer left it alone.
