I am left-handed (as in I actually use the mouse in my left hand) and finding a decent left-handed gaming mouse over the years has been quite the task. The reality is that there are barely any true left-handed mice out there. Razer seem to be one of the very companies that actually cater to us southpaws and for that I give them a lot of credit, considering how few of us there are and thus I imagine they would be barely making much profit, if any at all. They’ve released a true ergonomically left-handed version of both the Deathadder and Naga (both of which I’ve used) although they are both wired and I’ve been looking for a light wireless mouse to use for gaming (especially fast paced shooter games like Call of Duty Modern Warfare, where speed is very important) and I’m pleased to say that I am very happy with the Razer Viper Ultimate. There’s no noticeable lag compared to the aforementioned wired mice, which is a great thing for gamers. The mouse feels extremely responsive and feels nice and light in the hand whilst it’s comfortable to use with a claw grip (can’t comment on how it is for fingertip or palm grip users). The design is truly ambidextrous, as in it has side-buttons on both sides, not just the left side like the majority of “ambidextrous” gaming mice. This means that as a leftie, I can make use of the buttons on the right side with my thumb. The buttons aren’t removeable like the ones on the original G Pro Wireless are, but this hasn’t really been an issue for me because they don’t stick out too much so I have never accidentally pressed the buttons on the other side. The buttons feel nice to press, especially the primary and secondary mouse buttons which have a nice “clickyness” to them. I like the grip on the scroll wheel, it’s easy to press and comes in very handy as a keybind (such as a quick melee) when in intense moments in games. The texture of the mouse is nice, the top of it has a nice matte touch whilst the sides have a more grippy texture to them so there’s little chance of slipping and misclicking a side button. I got the mouse with the dock and it is certainly very convenient. I leave it on the dock to charge when taking quick breaks and this pretty much stops it from ever getting low in battery. It was a bit awkward at first to position the mouse so that it connects with the magnetic pins, but after a few times I got the hang of it and now it fits on quite seamlessly. Both the dock and the mouse have RGB which is nice if you’re into that. When the mouse is charging, it flashes a specific colour along with the dock to indicate the battery level which is pretty neat (e.g red if it’s very low, yellow/orange if it’s around the middle and green if it’s high). When they’re not charging, I have both of them as a matching static colour, but you can customise them a fair bit in Razer’s software called Synapse. In general, Synapse is very useful as it allows me to remap all of the mouse buttons. Being a leftie, I use the right-click as my primary button and the left-click as secondary. However I didn’t rebind them in Synapse, but rather Window’s own mouse settings so that I don’t have to wait for Synapse to start up every time I turn on my PC. I like that I can have different profiles in Synapse for my mouse (I have one for general use and one specifically for gaming, and I can link specific games to the latter profile). Each profile can also have their own DPI and RGB settings. However Synapse is unfortunately not without its issues, like when booting my PC up it sometimes doesn’t connect to my profile automatically and keeps asking me if I want to use the cloud settings or the on-board settings of the mouse and I haven’t found a way to resolve this yet, but Logitech’s G Hub software never gave me any issues like this. I would have given this 5 stars if it wasn’t for the issues I’ve experienced with the software. Overall, the mouse itself is pretty much the best wireless gaming mouse around at the moment if you’re left-handed like myself and I am very happy with this purchase. Razer are known for their expensive prices but luckily I got this in a deal with the dock included for £64.99. For all the flack Razer get in the gaming community, they genuinely are one of the very few companies that care about us left-handed gamers and hopefully continue to do so. If I was right-handed I probably would have gone for the G Pro X Superlight as it’s around 10g lighter, but that’s not to say that this mouse is bad in any means for a right-handed gamer, it’s still very light and comfortable to use and is certainly a solid choice. Sorry for the long review but I hope this is helpful to anyone looking for a solid wireless gaming mouse that caters to both right and left-handed users. 23 people found this helpful

Razer is a brand that i have come to love and trust with my pc gaming It arrives in the branded box shown and on removing from the box your meet with a well made (as expected) mouse and docking station, Docking station is well made and the wire is woven material and is well made, the dock is lightweight nice shape, the bottom of the dock has rubber bottom this is great as it stops it sliding all over the desk, inside the dock is the space where you plug in the 2,4hz dongle if your using the dock (the dongle is stored in the underneath of the mouse. The mouse is impressive its lightweight and is simple perfect in my hand is small than my Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed which is the main reason i choose it. The optical sensor is amazing it boasts a tracking speed of up to 650 IPS (inches per second) which for me when im gaming is perfect, and when used with the right mouse Matt (see my other reviews) is gaming changing, The Viper Ultimate is also loaded with Razer’s HyperSpeed Wireless transmission tech, which in essence gives it the same latencies as a wired version. This mouse is an ambidextrous mouse, and you switch the left and right click commands with a simple toggle in Razer Synapse (Software) The mouse only has two programmable buttons on each side, one set for right-handers, one for left-handers, plus a click-in scroll wheel, which for gamers mmmmm. The battery life is really great and will last for long periods (Razer claim 70 hours) but I don’t think i will be playing that long straight through ( mmmmm or will i new call of duty on the horizon
) I have now been using for a few months, playing Warzone, MSFS, and Hell let Loose and it still feels as good and responsive as the day i got it. Very happy and happy to recommend 5 people found this helpful

The Razer Viper Ultimate is an exceptional gaming mouse that has truly elevated my gaming experience. The lightweight design makes it incredibly easy to maneuver, and the wireless technology provides a seamless connection with zero lag. The customizable RGB lighting adds a personal touch, The battery life is impressive, lasting for days on a single charge. However, it may take some time to get used to the ergonomic shape. Overall, the Viper Ultimate is a top-tier gaming mouse that combines performance and aesthetics, making it worth every penny. Worth the money THE BEST

When this used to go for a good price <£30, it's a solid purchase. Great performance and decent comfort for the price. Otherwise there may be more options in the high price brackets, if you need a gaming mouse and can get this for cheap, it won't hold you back.

I’ve used a number of mice over the past few years: Razer Deathadder, GPro Wired, Glorious Model O- & Model D. I’m an FPS gamer mainly and play games like PUBG, CoD, etc.. have played FPS games since 2003 so I’d say my mechanical skill with a mouse is pretty good and I notice differences between all mice listed above. It’s only been the past few weeks where I decided to go for the Razer Viper Mini and move away from the Model O-. Not because it’s a bad mouse but because ergonomically it feels a little too narrow for my hand and I noticed cramping and fatigue, which is not something you want as a gamer. Ergonomically this mouse is really comfortable to hold. I use a hybrid palm/claw grip. It’s as small as the o- and nearly as light but the rear of the mouse it’s ever so slightly higher, which allows me to have contact with the mouse with my palm, which gives that bit of support. The middle of the mouse isn’t as narrow either, so I noticed that my right ring finger is able to curl in naturally to hold the mouse which leaves just my pinky on the mat for tracking support – the model o- only allowed me to grip with the side of my right finger which again wasn’t the most natural position. The Model D felt a little too big for my hand although the curvature on the outside of the mouse felt grand, but adjustments I had to make were unnatural for ME and caused some cramping. I’ve yet to experience cramping with the viper mini. Thankfully. The skates on the Viper feel very slick. This may change depending on the mouse pad you’re using. I tested it on my long time use QCK+ which seems to be a little slower than the MM350, which allows a really good glide and I’ve noticed tracking targets in PUBG is far easier – heads up this could be because my QCK has been used for so long that it’s built up sweat etc on it which has slowed it down – I’ll revise this again later once I’ve used my MM350 a bit more. The buttons are a delight and extremely responsive but don’t feel flimsy. The Model o- & the GPro Wired had softer feeling buttons which made it feel like they were going to get pushed in and stuck (they never did of course, besides the middle mouse button on the GPro obtaining a double click after 5 months). These don’t feel like that at all. I love them. Took me a few hours to get used to them because they were so responsive. Definitely the most responsive buttons I’ve ever used, which in FPS gaming is amazing. They’re absolutely fantastic. The accuracy feels really good too. I loot pretty fast in PUBG and I definitely notice tab looting in PUBG to be much slicker, I don’t know if it’s a placebo or what but it feels good and I don’t doubt I’m missing anything. The cable is flexible and doesn’t feel like it catches on the end of my mouse pad – I have a bungee too but I like an extra bit if slack and it doesn’t seem to catch or get mis-shaped from sitting in a certain position, which I’ve noticed with other cables. The build of the mouse is really good too, there’s no creaking or flex to the body so it doesn’t feel like it’s going to crumble at any point which is great. My pics are a comparison of all mice I have currently. The viper mini is in the middle. Hopefully this gives you an Idea of shape and size and side button position. The only downside (of any razer product imo) is the Razer Synapse software, which I’ve never been a fan of. It just seems like bloatware to me. I installed it used it for a few days but then uninstalled it again because it’s just a pain in the hole. Mouse works perfectly fine without it. I would definitely recommend this mouse to anyone & for the price it’s absolute bargain. Happy to answer any questions if anyone has any. 49 people found this helpful

This is a high quality, lightweight, super reactive mouse that gives great value for money for any serious gamers. It’s wireless and the connectivity is perfect. It also has great battery life and needs charging less often than other mice. I’ve chosen the white colour this time to fit in with my new setup and it’s very bright and clear and looks really good. This is a quality mouse at a bargain price and I’m so pleased with everything it does! 2 people found this helpful

I bought the viper ultimate back in April 2021 with the charging dock. First things first, don’t think about the dock. The metal contacts on the base of my mouse (where it connects to the dock) got dirty and/or rusted within a few months rendering the dock effectively useless to me. I also have friends with this mouse who experienced the same issue. Charging with the cable isn’t a big deal to me. The mouse itself is great. I play with a strange hybrid between fingertip and claw grip and its perfect for me. My hand only contacts the mouse via my fingertips and then the rear left of the mouse makes some contact with my palm for stability. The shape of this mouse is perfect for this grip as I’m able to move the mouse around a large amount horizontally/vertically with just my fingertips due to its small height. I’ve tried other mice such as the G PRO Superlight and found that the back of the mouse was too tall and bulky and therefore made too much contact with my hand for my grip style which reduced effective movement. The mouse clicks are great, light enough to be easily spammable with no effort while also being heavy enough to never mis-click. There is no noticeable post or pre travel to these clicks so they feel super snappy. Side buttons are ok I guess, I don’t have enough experience with other mice to talk about placement, but they are fine for me. They feel good and you can definitely tell when you’ve clicked them so no uncertainty. One thing I wasn’t a fan of was the rubber grips that come with the mouse. After a few months I ended up replacing my side grips with my own ones, before ultimately tearing them off entirely. I find that the raw plastic underneath the side grips is perfectly grippy and allows for a slightly closer grip which I really prefer. If you’re in the market for a fingertip/claw grip mouse that allows for a lot of fingertip adjustment then this mouse is great. If you can get the Viper V2 pro for the same/slightly more expensive then I’d recommend that as afaik its just a lighter variant with some improvements. That said, if you can get this mouse for <100 pounds then its great in my opinion. 5 people found this helpful

I recently got the Razer Viper 8K Hz Gaming Mouse, and it has significantly elevated my gaming experience! The ambidextrous design is comfortable for extended use, and the lightweight build allows for quick and precise movements. The standout feature is the 8000 Hz HyperPolling technology, which makes a noticeable difference in responsiveness. The optical focus + sensor with 20,000 DPI provides incredible accuracy, perfect for fast-paced gaming scenarios. I appreciate the customizable DPI settings, allowing me to tailor it to my gameplay style. The RGB lighting is a nice touch, adding a bit of flair to my setup. Overall, I highly recommend the Razer Viper 8K Hz for serious gamers looking for a high-performance, reliable mouse! 4 people found this helpful
