Design and Features The Ouroboros is all about the design. The ambidextrous mouse has 11 programmable buttons: Right and Left, a clickable scroll wheel, two thumb trigger buttons on each side, and two DPI adjustment buttons.

Good tracking when wired; Customisable design

Poor wireless performance; Price

The Razer Ouroboros ships at a price of $129.99 which is quite a bit for a mouse but considering that it is a limited edition model and a high-end mouse the pricing is fair.
