Except Deathadder v4 pro and viper v3 pro are one of the best right now.

The DA V4 clicks make me want to peel my eyes and flay my ears from inside out... I'm not the only one they annoy 🙄

Planned obsolescence is my big razer conspiracy. If you want your mouse to last more than 18 months then youre gonna need some luck. Ive owned 18+ Deathadders over 10+ years and not one has ever lasted more than 18 months regardless of use.

I didnt think id need to answer that on this subreddit.. Shape is king, none of the chinese clones are good enough imo. I have the money to throw away at them or ive gotten them sponsored. Theyre well built and feel comfortable, the fact they die out doesnt negate that theyre good products until they do. Also theyre very easy to repair if you know how to solder, I havent thrown away or disposed of any units of the years unless the sensors died. If money is tight and longevity matters (and ur not willing to resolder parts) like for op then its different. tldr: there are better, cheaper, more durable companies/options nowadays that razer shouldnt be anyones very first pick imo unless you love a particular shape that there isnt a decent clone of.

We have the same size hand but different grip style. I’m fingertip grip high sense so I use a tiny mouse, works better for me lol. But yea a death adder v4 would be perfect I think

Dude, Logitech is charging $180 a product that is **literally the same mouse from 2018** with new switches. Not even gonna mention their terrible QC. But if a random chinese company can produce a better mouse than you, being a multimillionare company, and also charging it X4 less... It's not the consumers fault little bro. Also... >*Logitech’s primary manufacturing hub is located in* ***Suzhou, China*** Logitech's factories are ALSO in China. So it doesn't make any sense they overprice their products so much with the ''but they can't compete with china'' argument.

Yep. I said that in a post and I ate like -80 downvotes lol. A lot of people saying ''40grams and 60 is almost the same!'' It's 100% not lol. This mouse is 60 grams because Logitech is lazy and they don't want to develop a better model, just reuse old parts. Not because 60 grams is better than 50 or 40. The Viper V3 is already 53 grams. The Deathadder V4 Pro (being a big ass mouse) is 56 grams. It will be funny if the Viper V4 also have haptic switches and weights under 50 grams. Even funnier if Lamzu develops a haptic Maya at 45 grams with better skates and software while being cheaper.

>but the reason that there is a premium is because of the cost of R&D to develop this tech Yeaaah, except not. Superlight 2 MSRP was $159 Superlight 2C is also $159. No R&D there, it's literally the same GPX but with optical switches. That is crazy expensive when mouses like the Lamzu Maya X is far better and more complete for $119. >Also because they can provide a lot better warranty than chinese companies can. And yeah, they do because their products QA really sucks. I had 3 Superlights and 3 failed. Double clicking in one, dead battery on another (at 1 year), and weird clicking problem with another (clicks inverted for some reason). And it's not weird, it's actually quite common people have like 3 or 4 Superlights because they had to RMA more than 1. To have a functional Superlight I had to buy new switches, solder them, a new battery, and change parts between the 3 of them, also skates and grips since the stock ones suck. >chinese companies can simply ignore any warranty requests. And that is not true. Maybe a generic random mouse, but not one from a regular company. Even attack shark did RMA'd all the mouses when they had problems with the firmware. Logitech doesn't offer warranty because they're cool guys, they literally have to do it by law lol.

Superlight 2 if you palm grip viper v3 pro if you claw grip and death adder v4 pro if you have large hands and you like palm. Honorable mention for the pulsar x2 crazy light if you fingertip grip tho.

Ergo: Razer Deathadder V4 pro or DAV3 it's cheaper now Ambi: Razer Viper V3 pro If you want cheaper Chinese brands, Mchose is amazing, I played tournaments with it. Or ATK. They are lighter than Razer, ok, and 3x cheaper

21.5 x 12.5 hand here. I tried all the big mouse on market. I'm competitive palyer and top kovaak aimer mouse is important to me. My main were: Model D, O, Deathadder V2, V3, and Beast X Max - biggest version. From cheaper Chinese: Darmoshark M3 pro, this is 130mm, so biggest so far. And now I'm maining Mchose A7, Rawm leviathan V4, ATK A9 air. I tired all previously, intelimouse,mx518, sabre (this is big mouse, with big hump), you can see other in my name tag. If u want ergo: best is deathadder V4 (V3 if u want cheaper) I u want Ambi: cheaper: mchose A7, Darmoshark M3 pro, leviathan V4. Expensive: Viper v3 pro,

If you love the deathadder, you’ll probably love the v4 pro. More of the same but better in every aspect. Lighter and with a rechargeable battery

I Agree. a Good start is to try out the G pro X Superlight, it's a SUPER safe shape. I have slightly larger hands 19x10cm and i use relaxed claw, similar like your grip style, it's definitely relaxed claw. Beast X max is 90% similar to the Viper V3 pro, so i don't think you'll like it. By the way, i'm currently interested in the Deathadder V4 pro, i've tried it, it's one of the best mice on the market, but i'm currently aiming for the Pulsar Tenz. If you felt "locked in" you should also try the XM2 or the Lamzu Atlantis shapes, those are super nice. 1) XM2 from Endgame gear or Lamzu Atlantis 2) GPX Superlight 3) Also you could try the Pulsar X2H medium, it has a kinda smaller back hump. But overall, if you feel good with the Deathadder, i'd just stick with it. It's a GOAT mouse. Feel free to ask questions, i've printed 15 shapes a few days ago :D i have a ton
