The Mamba's shape and materials feel great in the hand, but wireless comes at a high cost: in dollars, weight, and frequent charging.

Even semicompetitive PC gamers can get away with a less expensive mouse, but for the most dedicated, the Razer Mamba provides unmatched precision whether it's connected directly to your PC or set free in wireless mode.

Wired and wireless usage modes; high polling rate ensures seamless wireless connection, even at high resolutions; onboard memory lets you take your profiles and macros on the road

Most expensive gaming mouse; no on-the-fly macro recording; clunky USB cable a hassle to plug into the mouse

I have tested many gaming mouses mainly for online multiplayer or singleplayer FPS (first person shooter) games. Mouse performance is the first step to the unforgettable experience of gameplay.

Along the the Mamba TE and the DeathAdder (Chroma), the Mamba (2015 Edition) is one of the most advanced gaming mice in the world. This device works with a laser sensor, a max speed of 210 IPS, acceleration of 50G, and an industry-leading 16,000 DPI sensor under the hood.

capability to change the settings of the mouse on-the-fly (i.e. DPI enhance to 5600 and set x and y axis differently, transform any and all buttons to whatever you want, and so on.) Very comfy fitting in my hand and feels wonderful owning in FPS games! :) Not numerous cons if you ask me.

As a rule of thumb, we hate (nay, despise) giving credit to marketing teams, but 'the world's most advanced gaming mouse' is honestly not a bad way of describing the Mamba. With its 16,000 DPI sensor, full button customisation, deep RGB lighting options, wireless connectivity and Adjustable Click...

The Mamba is Razer's most expensive gaming mouse. At £95, it will set you back a significant chunk of change, but its wireless abilities might make it worth the investment.

Expensive but the hybrid wired/wireless mouse delivers. Can be a little slow to wake up in wireless mode but is packed with features and is rechargeable. The charging platform takes some practice to get the mouse in the right place.

It's back to the drawing board for Razer.

Virtually lag-free wireless interface; Great balance between ergonomics and agility; Freedom to choose between wired and wireless modes; Can use the mouse while charging; Custom lighting effects; Great UI

Expensive; Suffers from jitter; DPI-scaling kills accuracy; Dual-sensors don't improve tracking; Surface calibration is useless; Picky about surfaces; Variable cut-off distance doesn't work; Power hungry; Long charging time; Settings take aeons to apply

While the Razer Mamba is not going to be perfect for all people and all scenarios, overall it is a very good mouse. The combination of years of research and refinement by Razer’s engineers really has created one very comfortable mouse.
