What customers say about "Key Specs"
Razer DeathAdder Essential Optical eSports Gaming Mouse
  • This was a good deal, you get the sensor of the expert.
  • The sensor is i can safely say the best that i ever tried.
  • Super accurate optical sensor provided you use an appropriate mouse pad surface.
  • The optical sensor is very accurate and tracks really well.
  • The sensor on this thing is amazing!
Razer Deathadder Elite RGB Ergonomic Gaming Mouse
  • I purchased this mouse to replace an older DeathAdder, and the DPI buttons are fantastic. It's easier to change the sensitivity on the fly in games like Overwatch.
  • Its a really great mouse. the wide range of DPI enables me to choose from different sensitivity settings
  • I especially love how I'm able to decrease or increase the dpi on the fly at the touch of a button and how I can customize any button on the mouse.
  • This is the best mouse for gaming and everyday use. The optical sensor is fast and accurate. I love that Razer adding the DPI sensitivity buttons just below the scroll wheel.
  • Still have calibration bug (i have calibration but after restart high lod. Alltime need recalibrate after restart) and ugly dpi buttons. Pros never change dpi in game.
  • The mouse is okay. Nice shape over all. My issue was that 800 dpi on this mouse did not feel the same. It was way faster than other mice. Be careful.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Razer DeathAdder Essential Optical eSports Gaming Mouse
  • However when it came it was a little bit big but now it’s ok, you’ll need to get used to the size.
  • Right size, right weight perfect for CS:GO.
  • This mouse is incredibly uncomfortable your hand would have to be the exact size.
  • Best mouse I have ever used. Good size.
  • I have medium size hands so its probably a little too big.
Razer Deathadder Elite RGB Ergonomic Gaming Mouse
  • Perfect size for anyone with medium size hands, quick response time and very accurate for FPS.
  • Perfect size to fit bigger hands, ergonomic shape, grippy scroll wheel and mouse side's for sweaty nerd hands.
  • So this mouse is surprisingly massive but I like it the bigger size makes it less portable but it makes it more comfortable even with my fairly small hands
  • Perfect weight balance and great size fits my hand and I believe will fit any hand comfortably.
  • It takes a little getting used to because of the size but I really like

What customers say about "Connection"
Razer DeathAdder Essential Optical eSports Gaming Mouse
  • It is quick to plug in with only one usb.
  • The cable is light and does not impede movement with a solid usb termination.
  • The braided USB cable is a nice touch. Easy connect.
  • Response is fantastic and smooth, great for gaming. Good connection.
  • After connecting to usb it will disconnect after 15 seconds.
Razer Deathadder Elite RGB Ergonomic Gaming Mouse
  • Super comfortable mouse with a durable cloth covered cord.
  • Mouse is nice and smooth, comes with a good length usb cord
  • The cord is shockingly thin and flexible and doesn’t get hooked on anything.
  • The cord is tethered (like a shoelace) and fairly long and the mouse doesn't feel cheaply made or awkward or anything.
  • The cord ripped apart very easily, even with the extreme care I put into my electronics.
