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.

Bottom Line: If you've got the cash to splash I would fully recommend the Razer Mamba. However, for the lot of us with not-so-deep pockets, there are many other good alternatives.

Razer are well known for their accomplished range of gaming peripherals. However they have yet to set foot into the wireless market until recently. This is likely down to views of many hardcore gamers on wireless technology.

Very attractive; Sleek curves that fit in the palm of your hand; Great battery life; Wired and wireless connections; Excellent tracking; Docking station; Conveniently placed DPI buttons; Smooth scroll wheel

Hefty price tag

As far as the new features go, the variable buttons work well, allowing us to tweak for our needs but they could have been implemented better. Requiring a specialist tool (and a very tiny one) is just going to result in people loosing the ability to tweak as their tool gets misplaced.

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.

The gaming-grade peripheral breaks the barrier of 5,000 dpi, leaving the wiring and lag behind. See how it fared during our test.
