Razer's Best Mouse EVER? - Viper Mini Signature Edition Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ค. 2024
- Under the hood, this mouse uses similar high-end internals to other recent Razer flagship releases, including a Razer Focus Pro 30K sensor and Gen-3 optical switches. Additionally, this mouse comes with a Razer HyperSpeed Dongle that is unique to the Viper Mini Signature Edition. This dongle allows you to set a maximum wireless polling rate of 8000Hz, and it's the first wireless gaming mouse on the market to offer this feature.
This mouse was originally released exclusively on Razer's website and select physical Razer stores as a limited quantity drop. Razer has committed to continued production in batch drops according to demand.

But how it pull on ski free?
can you pls tell me what 3rd party seller did you purchase the viper mini se from?
Ebay
I am with this mouse because of its performance, but I don't want to use it with 8KHz because of many reasons. Why don't you provide the option of testing with 1KHz polling rate? How much performance decrease do you expect when set to 1KHz?
What you mean by performance? Fps or the mice accuracy? It's a tiny difference, there's really not that much practical difference between 8k and 1k, except 8k steals fps.
@@albertofernandez4425 for competitive gamers like me, every millisecond matters bro. th-cam.com/video/5Qu0fu-AUEo/w-d-xo.html
literally zero difference between 8k and 1k
Will you do a Dekoni Cobalt review?
No plans on our end, but you can track any upcoming reviews here: www.rtings.com/review-pipeline
There is a correction: Viper V2 is 8000Hz, not just 4000Hz, thanks to a firmware update. Just wanted to point it out and to be constructive
Thanks for sharing, that's a good point! Unfortunately, there's no way for us to update the video after a FW update is released so we appreciate you bringing this up!
This mouse took me from silver to grandmaster in 1 day.
It is unironically the best performing mouse you can get specs wise, and would genuinely help you improve at the games you play. The shape is bad though.
@@Xenon_001 razer viper mini is a mouse that even some pro players use because of its shape
This was an excellent and interesting review, but I was just wondering why sometimes there was someone else's hands in the video? I feel bad for them that they don't get any credit. It kind of reminded me of Thing from the Adam's Family. ✋🤭
No real reason, Kelsey is our tester on the mice Silo, and he couldn't commit to hosting the video, but we still used his expertise when possible!
@RTINGSdotcom Well please tell him we appreciate his hands lol.
All razor mice need more buttons. The two extra buttons many mice have near your index finger are a must have for me.
Viper v2 has them
@@paolo9038 no it doesn't. It has left, right, forward and back on the side. Look at corsair darkcore pro or logitech G700 or Logitech 503, now in my search i saw Razer DeathAdder V2 does have them, but not the Viper.
long awaited lol, although not sure how i feel abt the 3rd party purchase, still a highly respectable company! yall rock
Unfortunately it was one of the few ways we were able to get our hands on the product and learn more about its 8000KHz polling rate! It's likely that most people won't be able to get their hands on this mouse, but we thought it still provided a lot of value to the whole mouse community! Thanks for the support as always!
@@RTINGSdotcom GOAT 🙌
@RTINGSdotcom I went the 3rd party route for mine as well and have no regrets. No shame!
👍
434$ for a mouse? What the actual fck.... no thanks
The Viper V2 Pro now supports 8K Polling.
Thanks for letting us know we’ll look into it and update our review on our website accordingly!
orochi v2 is the best one from razer
very good for the price
3335 sensor
That "10g difference" is more than 20% heavier, it is misleading to look at it just as at an absolute value
10g is a lot no matter the weight of the mouse. a 114g mouse is much heavier than a 104g one
@@paolo9038Humans don't perceive with their senses linearly, for example, it is much harder to notice the difference between 100->110 compared to 50->60. This is why for example the loudness scale was made logarithmic.
Eh no ability for the 8k plugged in? No thanks.
Plus I think the sheer cpu consumption for 8k kind of negates most of the benefits.
Until cpus get drastically faster, we really just need 4k WIRED mice and keyboards
I have 8K wired and my system runs fine. A modern rig can handle this with almost no effort.
@@UnimatrixTH-cam I didn't say it wasn't able to run. I'm saying the cpu consumption negates most of the benefits. Which is objectively true. Even if you have the best cpu there is, it's still going to take a ton of cpu resources to run that many updates per second. Which increases latency and lowers frame rate. Not by a noticeable amount, but it is still there. It is still a net positive from the testing I've seen, but it's very much diminishing returns past 2-4k
And I'm not saying you did. No it's not objectively true, it's your subjective truth. If you have a modern gaming rig than that 8K polling rate will be handled just fine. Stop spreading nonsense.
@@UnimatrixTH-cam Again, it will be handled "just fine". I'm not saying you're losing 20% frames. But all the tests online show cpu usage that will result in worse overall latency and frame drop, which counteracts a lot of the benefits from the 8khz. Literally look at some of the top tests on the matter. It is still an overall benefit, but it is lessened some deal by the increased cpu demand(that again, you won't notice, but is there and does have an impact). Your lack of noticing or caring is the subjective part. The objective stats prove otherwise.
@@Holy_Hobo My man, make up your mind. You literally use phrases like "sheer cpu consumption", "it's still going to take a ton of cpu resources" and saying we need faster CPU's for this to become interesting which is just nonsense. Especially on modern CPU's. The only time when 8K is a problem is when people are trying to use it in game engines that don't support it. Than you will have a massive negative impact. Btw, you also have to look at the use case for these things, which is mostly competitive shooters where most people turn down settings anyway so plenty of free resources and also, most of these competitive shooters are not that taxing in terms of resources. Personally I use it everywhere in game engines that support it on 8K, without tuning down settings and there's no impact running 8K.
never buying razer again, they finally released nice mouse after years in such limited quantity they all ended up in ebay private sales for outrages prices. they using the final mouse strategy now. buy something else guys
Wlmouse beast 8k black colour
Nooo Rtings to you were supposed to be one of the good ones
?????????????????????
As far as I know you can't even buy it so what's the purpose of testing it.
Why not good for science
Razer does drops of these, it's a limited edition thing. Otherwise the resale value is insane
Not complaining about the review quality here but honestly there's very little use in putting effort in reviewing products like this and putting them on the spotlight. Yeah 8K wireless is nice but other than that it doesn't offer anything special that will justify this price. Nobody other than the 0,01 percent is gonna buy a couple hundred bucks mouse. This is just a silly product and a testament to corporate greed. I would say put your efforts in actual interesting products that deserve to be reviewed.
Other than 8k wireless? So being the currently one and only mouse that offers it doesn't justify the price? Plus the fact that it's made of magnesium alloy and has razers best sensor, that's special. It's an enthusiest mouse. The price is justified.
Also I agree that mid-range and more popular mice should get the spotlight, but a flagship mouse like this is also exciting to see. You can never get complacent.
Thanks for not complaining
This is tech innovation, there is no other 8Khz mouse on the market, it deserves recognition. We'll probably be stuck with 1Khz wired mice if not for companies like Razer, Logitech and Pixart pushing the boundary.
@@ZacharyMcClane Magnesium means nothing. It could be made of gold and still offer nothing special other than bling value. It's not an enthousiast mouse, it's a whale mouse for people that actually believe this overpriced crap offers something extra.
@@paul2609 There are plenty of 8K mice on the market for a while now. Wireless, no.
