I had the Mamba (OG, 2012), Mamba Wireless (the one that OP has). The only mouse that fit my hand in terms of form factor after Mamba Wireless was Deathadder v2

Would you mind sharing the source files? This would be the perfect send off for my Razer Mamba 2012.

I have this mouse and it's amazing. I play mostly FPS with it and have had no problems. I had the razer mamba 2012 for 12 years before it started struggling to click. that's why I went with razer again.

I really likw the razer deathadder v3 pro. My previous mouse was a razer mamba which lasted me 10+ years after which I decided I wanted something new. It was still working perfectly fine

I usually look for mice that don't have too many side buttons. I never click them, and I never accidentally click them, but I only find the DPI buttons necessary sometimes, and that's fine. My Naga was better suited for MMOs, but I ended up stopping using it due to my busy day-to-day workload. So I started using the Mamba more. Its size is perfect for anything, and I find it very comfortable. I've used the Basilisk a few times with the Deathadder v2. The only drawback with the V2 was the DPI buttons on the right-click and the fact that both are battery-operated.

I actually hate this mouse solely because of the 2 buttons next to the left click. I am ALWAYS hitting them on accident and would prefer if they just were not there. My favorite mouse for years has been the Razer Mamba. I got a 502 a few months ago when I was walking around Microcenter and saw them on sale and still cannot get the feel for it.

Razer worst hardware company to ever exist. I had 6 Razer pieces until i finally said its enough. Everyone of them was just bad quality. 1x Razer Black Mamba - randomly disconnected with cable since I bought it 2x Razer Ornata - both crap quality and broke after just one year of usage 1x Razer Black Widow 2? - still using it but has Problems since I bought it. Audio randomly changes even though im not even at the table 1x Razer Kraken - overall bad audio and microphone quality, broke after like 2 years 1x razer Kraken v2? - literally had it 7 days and it broke Lesson learnt: never ever buy razer products again

1.Use USB-HUB for wired connections 2.Get a mouse from razer - they are available as well on Mac and have Razer with unofficial APIs on GitHub for colour-LED dynamics. 3.Razer Mamba works like a charm with some nice rug of glass. Recommend. https://imgur.com/a/VZGJQwG Here, I am on the train. The rug doesn’t count. It’s my old photo

I bought a Mamba one time, you know the one that came in the perspex box? It was their most expensive mouse at the time. After a few months of regular use, the left thumb grip peeled off, then the right, leaving sticky glue residue behind. Next, the plastic trim of the scroll wheel peeled off. Finally, the battery turned into a spicy pillow, which I needed to remove and then use it permanently with a cable. Shortly after I threw what was left of that piece of shit in the trash where it belongs, and vowed to never again buy Razer.
