I've used a few wireless devices like this, but have never liked them for gaming. There always seems to be a little lag, especially when using Bluetooth. I don't have an ounce of lag with this mouse. Also, this model can use either AA or AAA batteries, which is kind of neat. It has both Bluetooth and standard wireless operation with a dongle. The only reason I gave it 4 stars rather than five is because I've had random disconnect issues. It seems to simply stop working for a few seconds and then reconnect. After running a firmware update and installing the latest Razer software, I haven't had any problems. I honest don't like the Razer software on my computers, though. It tries to take control of way too many systems in Windows. I do like the mouse, though.

I bought one for my girlfriend and ended up buying one myself after using it. Switches are tactile and precise, scroll wheel is tight and notchy, and the skates are very smooth. You can also adjust the weight by swapping between a AA or AAA battery. It seems suitable for palm grip in small hands or fingertip for large hands. The only thing I don't like about it is that there is no griptape applied on the sides like the Viper Ultimate, so its not as easy to fingertip. But the mouse is textured so it doesn't feel to slippery in hand. I got it on sale for $45 and it seems like an incredible value. For the price, I was expecting it to feel less premium than the other mice in my collection. But it keeps up with other more expensive mice. Felt very natural to pick up and start clicking heads. Wireless performance is excellent over the included 2.4ghz dongle, and so far the battery life has been good. I also like the added customization of removable faceplates, I swapped with my gf for the pink.

Razer markets this mouse as a travel mouse for laptop gamers, but it feels and performs like a top-tier gaming mouse. $40 on sale is a steal. It easily beats the G305 by being significantly lighter and it doesn’t feel cheap. Depending on what shape you prefer, this might be better than the Viper Ultimate. I have large hands and switch between fingertip and a claw/palm hybrid grip comfortably. This is my GO-TO FPS gaming mouse, accompanied by the Basilisk Ultimate for everyday ergonomic usage. The wireless USB dongle did have some hiccups at first with connection, and I found out it works best on USB 3.0. I’ve heard some units may need a firmware update. But once I got it working it is fast and accurate- Going wireless is so worth it. It comes with a AA battery which works well, but I swapped in a rechargeable AAA to shave off even more weight. The only thing extra I’d like is RGB, but for the price I can’t complain about that being cut out.
