Razer is the world's top gaming peripherals brand, having won the "Best of CES" award for six consecutive years. In the field of gaming mice, the world's first gaming mouse, the Busslang Snake, and the first two-handed universal gaming mouse Giant Belly Snake are all from Razer. Razer has a 31% share of the North American gaming mouse market, second only to Logitech, with more than 3 million users.
Its Purgatory Viper gaming mouse, launched in 2006, is still loved by gamers today, and has been named the best gaming mouse by websites such as The Wirecutter and Techradar.
The engine of Razer gaming mice is generally higher than that of other brands of gaming mice in the same class. Among them, high-end models such as Naga Snake Evolution, Sharp Viper Racing Edition, and Baselis Snake all use the top PMW3389 engines on the market, and the engines used in the entry-level models are generally stronger than those of other brands in the mid-range models. In addition, many Razer models, such as the Mamba Cobra (dual-mode) version and the Sidewinder, use Philips' laser engine. This engine is more picky about mouse pads, and if you use a softer mouse pad, you may experience mouse jitter.
Unlike other brands that commonly use numbers to distinguish the positioning of gaming mice, Razer uses the name of the snake as a differentiation, such as the high-end Mamba Cobra series, Naga Van, Sharp Pit Viper, mid-range Baselis snake, rattlesnake, Taipan Emperor snake, etc., entry-level viper, krait, phantom spirit snake, etc. There are also different subdivisions of the various snake series, such as wired and wireless, or other custom models for gaming peripherals.
The entry-level krait 2013 uses the Anwar S3988 engine, Omron 7N (10M) micro-movement, plus the smaller size and lighter weight, it is one of the best choices for RTS games under 200 yuan, the Viper 2013 original hardware is similar to the krait, but the size of the Viper is larger.
The mid-to-high-end Sharp Pit Viper Athletic Edition uses the top PMW3389 engine on the market, Razer's customized Omron 50M micro movement, which is already the top configuration in terms of engine and micro movement. The shape is designed for both left and right hands, and it is a medium size with a smooth back curve to fit most Asian hand shapes. The case is mainly matte and has a non-slip design on both sides, so even first-time users can quickly get used to the feel. Its price is 449 yuan, which is suitable for FPS and RTS games.
The flagship Super Mamba Cobra is similar to Logitech G703 and G903, and can also be used with a wireless charging mouse pad, but the back arc is larger, and the highest point is close to the center, which is not suitable for players in a gripping posture. And it uses a Philips engine, so it's recommended to use it with its wireless charging mouse pad.
