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

I have small hands and this is just perfect! Gaming wise, it is more than good enough for me in terms of sensitivity— I am a noob & light player. :) All in all, I love the size & fit to my hand when I’m using it!

I HAVE GIVEN UP ON THIS MOUSE! It works great for a while. Then it just goes out of adjustment where the scrolling speed up and down AND side to side get CRAZY. The only way to fix it is to unpair it from my computer and then to re-pair it. Then it works fine for days - or longer. But always gets wonky again. So I have gone back to Bluetooth Mouse,Rechargeable Wireless Mouse for MacBook Pro/MacBook Air,Bluetooth Wireless Mouse by Brand Zeru - it cost $12 on Amazon and is rechargeable! Not as ergonomic buts never failed!

Unfortunately, the design is quite weird (for me at least), otherwise this mouse would be higher-rated, its a solid mouse if you like the design, the sensor is great, the feel is nice outside of the design itself, and the connection is solid.

This mouse can attach to your system with the included dongle using 2.4 Ghz, or via Bluetooth if your system supports it. Ive run it both ways and and it works flawlessly. I did need to install the free Razer Synapse software to tune done the performance. It was a little too sensitive for me but after installing the software it was easy to adjust the sensitivity down to a comfortable level. It is symmetrical and good for those of us that are left handed. The only con is I wish it was a about an 1.25-1.50 inches longer. I have very big hands. I am adjusting to it. I have many other Razer products mostly keyboards and mice.

I needed a wireless setting for a Mac and it works all right. Bluetooth connection isnt as friendly on the Mac as it is on the PC, so I used the USB transmitter that came with. The transmitter isnt as powerful so make sure to plug it on the side youre going to use for maximum performance. OK for the price. Its not exactly a flawless product.

So far so good, have had a few issues with it not wanting to wake from a sleep state which causes a second of delay and no mouse input. Im sure there is a setting to turn that off but i have yet to find it. The mouse is a little smaller than i expected and also the battery life is not as good as i was hoping for. So far the battery has died once and iv only had it a few weeks. Quality is on par with the rest of the razer products.

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.

connects easily and the batteries last so much longer than cheaper brands

Ive been using the same mouse for years. Those years eventually caught up to it and I had to get it replaced. I got this one and it honestly feels pretty much the same. The one slight problem I have is that the body of the mouse feels like its made out of a cheaper material. Other than that it works great.
