Razer Atheris Ambidextrous Wireless Mouse: 7200 DPI Optical Sensor - 350 Hr Battery Life - USB Wireless Receiver & Bluetooth Connection - Classic Black

Despite the size it is super comfy to me, nice but not too loud clicking, and the 5 dpi options make it really nice for different tasks since working on the desktop or word, some solitaire, web surfing, to heavy gaming, its nice how you can change your needs with just a button.

The mouse is much smaller than I expected. I have large hands and its a little uncomfortable to use. So thats not a terrible thing, unless you are large featured like me. Otherwise its a great mouse, no complaints.

My favorite mouse. I tried about a dozen different highly-rated mice from Razer, Logitech, you name it. This is the one. Its great for small hands and has a perfect shape for a palm grip. Other palm-grip mice are way too big and feel incredibly clumsy for me.

Really nice mouse, Ive used razor products before and a lot of their mice were too big and bulky or felt odd in my hands. This one is perfect it’s small, it’s light and the batteries last forever. On top of that it doesn’t have all those fancy rgb lights on it Which is awesome, I just wanted a basic fast precise gaming mouse and for the price you really can’t beat it. 10/10

This may be the best travel mouse I have ever used. Heavy, solid, pairs easily and never drops connection with either the wifi or BT. Its weight is primarily affected by the 2 AA batteries carried internally. Some opinions on weight: If you game or do basic office work, you will never be more accurate than with a heavy mouse than with a light one. Why? It simply gives your brain a starting point and allows you to calculate an exact end point because you have a known weight with which you are moving allowing you to end up in the exact location that you intend to be at the final destination. Headshots are much easier with such a tool. There is one advantage with a light mouse however in that you will move much more quickly from the start but you will trade accuracy as a result for that twitch factor, so take your pick. Lets just say you will never be accused of cheating if you use a light mouse because your movements will be more erratic and far less accurate. In addition, if you game with a light mouse, expect to hate the transition to a heavy mouse for a while until you get used to it. Only when you start seeing some of the incredible shots you pull off will you start to appreciate it. Pros: -Heavy; -Solid construction; -Smooth accurate glide surface; -Easy to pair with solid non-dropping connections; -Works equally well on Linux as it does on Windows without hunting for drivers. -Includes both wireless and BT so it works on anything; -Very comfortable fit for a small mouse. Cons: -You will hate this mouse if you have big hands so dont buy it; -You wont like it if you prefer a light mouse; -Razer software wants to link to a real person / email address before you can use it. I have not tried to load it yet so I dont know if the current version is still doing that but it is almost a guarantee; -Marketing preys on Consumers who dont understand DPI and I hate that about mice manufacturers as they all do it these days. I better elaborate on the last one. DPI on this mouse is an astronomical 7200 DPI (note this is not the industry highest either). What does that mean exactly? Well, it stands for Dots Per Inch. To put that into perspective on why you really dont need it, you might first want to understand that mice that were 600 DPI back in the 90s and 2000s and they still work perfectly fine and were like that for years. That is all you could ever buy until Razer changed that game with a product called the Boomslang mouse. Matter of fact, I think I still have a Boomslang around here somewhere, but this is off subject and you can probably read that history yourself. To make this easy, DPI of 7200 means in exactly 1 inch of travel, your mouse has the resolution to move 7200 dots worth of travel. This is simple enough. Now lets analyze your monitor. The majority of monitors are still 1080p which means you have 1920 dots across. If you do a literal translation of this mouse to your desktop screen at 7200 DPI, that means your mouse would traverse from left to right of your entire screen 3.75x is the space of 1 inch. If we were moving vertically, you would traverse the entire screen 6.67x!!! Even if you have a modern 4K monitor, 1 inch of travel would mean you would still be traversing the monitor nearly 2 times! If you are starting to visualize this, this mouse would be pretty much unusable if it were not dampened by software and no longer running at its native resolution. When razer released its Boomslang way back when, if you didnt dampen its 2,000 DPI, it was already unusable right out of the box. These days, it seems to be expected that manufacturers are doing this and Windows will dampen it right out of the box for you. Lets just say while your mouse may be 7200 DPI capable, you are not really using that capability. The point of all this is simple... Marketing hype for these super high resolutions is just that, hype. You are not going to be a better gamer if this thing was 2,000 DPI or 20,000 DPI. You cannot possibly use these resolutions effectively. With that said, the way the mouse feels and moves physically means everything and that is what will win the day, and boy does this mouse feel right when moving it. I hope all this makes sense. What I have not tried: I have not loaded the Razer software which allows you to tweak the mouse like polling rate and DPI. I might load it to check out what the latest tools looks like but there is no need to load anything special to make this mouse work and I likely wont use the tools after the initial look. Update 1/19/19: Mouse has a major con.... My wife liked it so much she took it. Just had to buy another one to replace it. In the approximately year I have owned it, I have never had a single disconnect / dropped signal as mentioned here by other reviewers. My only thought is that there is a problem with the bluetooth on their laptop, a problem with drivers on their laptop, the mouse entered some sort of sleep state which it will do after a certain amount of inactivity, or they got a bad mouse. Note that I have never used the official Razer drivers either so it could be a problem with Rzer software that I am not aware of.

I like the size of this mouse and that it can connect via BT or Dongle/2.4. A long time ago, I bought the Razer Orochi. What a POS. The plastic pads on the bottom were not recessed and would fall off after a couple months. That mouse was over $100USD at the time. The pads on the bottom of this one are recessed. Note: In order to connect without the dongle, you need to have a newer BT module. One that supports LE. My older MBP does not have this. At first I thought there was something wrong with the mouse. It would not pair. Then I went to the manufactures site and that is where I found LE was required for BT connectivity. The packaging was nice and the manual. It also came with some stickers.

I wanted a higher DPI + 2.4GHz mouse for the office, this thing is perfect. Nice low latency on 2.4GHz.

Came in perfectly sealed with all the parts included. The mouse feels weighted for how small it is which helps keep the mouse easily planted to the mouse pad but not to heavy as to make it annoying. Feels high quality with good responsiveness to boot plus bluetooth if you need it. Yes the DPI is adjustable through razer synapse.

Im sure youve seen the pictures of the usb reciever and yes it is true. I was surprised at how it all just came apart. but I personnally never have a need to take it out and if you dont either, than I think this is a great mouse. if youre looking for something with a heavy feel, this isnt it. its a small light mouse but the battery lasts great. I dont use the bluetooth feature. connectivty didnt seem to be as smooth as the 2.4ghz connection.

good wireless mouse, with good battery life( come with 2 aa energizer max batteries, I replaced with 2 energizer lithium aa) can hold a longtime. the first 2 aa energizer max hold about 300 hours of use by 100 polling rate( use more power) via 2.4Ghz usb. my laptop also razer so it come with the Synapse can customize all the settings with out download anything.
