Despite this, its battery life of 100 hours surpasses the Pro by approximately 10 hours, and it weighs significantly less at 55g compared to the Pro’s 63g.
In terms of design, the ergonomic shell remains unchanged on both the wired and Pro versions. However, the V3 Hyperspeed features significantly larger feet, following the same design updates seen on the Razer Viper V3 Pro.
The Viper and Deathadder are categorized as Razer’s gaming mice, designed to be lightweight and nimble, offering highly responsive clicks and a great capacity for quick, precise movements. While the Viper follows a symmetrical shape, the Deathadder features a slanted design that is specifically suitable for right-handed users.
The Deathadder V3 HyperSpeed represents the ongoing trend in the industry towards 8KHz polling becoming the norm, however, the exclusive HyperPolling dongle is not bundled with the mouse and must be bought separately. Additionally, the impressive 100-hour battery life significantly decreases to only 20 hours when 8KHz polling is activated.
