This mouse has great control. The buttons are responsive and glides well across the mouse pad. Great software available for additional controls.

I like this mouse better than the gpx superlight. Shape is king when it comes to gaming mice and this mouse is just perfect for me. I tend to perform way better with this mouse than any other mouse that ive tried. I wish I could get my hands on a chaper wireless viper mini but even with the cobra pro its still not out yet.

I used to be Logitech fan in the early 2010s. Still own G910 keyboard and it's still going strong. Their later software hub got me to quit Logitech when my G502 mouse died. So I bought an expensive Basilisk mouse and Nommo Chroma speaker from Razer, about 2 years ago. The mouse stopped working recently as it started skipping. Tried to clean, but not showing any hope. Nommo Chroma has been randomly turning off all along and when it does, it sounds like the speaker is chocking and I need to activate emergency CPR or something. Of course it is out of warranty. I should have returned it while I had chance. I was an idiot thinking it may work eventually. Don't get me wrong. These are nice looking peripherals. Problem is that its quality sucks. There is 2 strikes. And when my Basilisk died, I should have gone with a different one. Another idiot moment, I chose to try Cobra wired mouse. First day? Worked fine. Second day? Hm, I think it is.. skipping?? Third day, I log into my computer and soon enough, my mouse cursor disappears. And I cannot get it back. I AM STUCK. I unplug this garbage and find this $9 Logitech mouse in my closet and it works just fine with immediate response. 3 STRIKES. I am returning this and not going to look back at Razer anymore. As soon as I can, I am taking this Nommo speaker out and throw it away as I am sure Razer won't even look at it. True story. (And Razer, please at least keep the USB connecting area on Basilisk a little wider so I can use most of these USB cables that I have so I can update this thing. None of my USB wires, I tried at least 7, and none of them would fit into this tiny spot).

My previous mouse before this, was a 1st gen older Razor Deathadder essential. That weighed in at about 96 grams.
This Razer Cobra /rgb mouse [model: RZ01-0465] is only weighing in at a light 58 grams, which doesn't seem like much difference, until you go from one to the other.
This mouse is also about a 1/4 in size smaller than the deathadder, so that helps remove some of that extra weight.
Pros:
affordable entry level gaming mouse
light weight, smaller frame
standard buttons + 2 on the side and a clickable scroll wheel which can all be programmed via the Razer Synapse software
RGB on the top and bottom of the mouse make for a nice desktop piece, (rgb controlled by chroma in the synapse software)
(this mouse looks really sharp on a darker colored mouse pad, as it sits there and glows)
negatives:
Not sure if this is a negative for me personally as i dont have giant hands, but it should be noted that the mouse is smaller than standard mice, so if you have big hands this might not be the best choice for you. (Personally i like the mouse, it fits snug in my palm and makes for quick precise movements with how light it is) but i have a lot of friends that prefer larger mice to more conform to their hands and style of play so i felt i should mention this
Overall this mouse is really nice, I am loving the rgb and physical lightness of the mouse, the software adds full features to this mouse, being able to control the RGB, and also letting you setup macros on the mouse and make full button changes with the software is a great feature and adds a lot of tweak-ability to the mouse.
Having owned a previous version of a Razer mouse, it made swapping over to this one pretty easy. I feel Razer makes pretty good mice, I've never had issues of click switch errors 'phantom clicking / missed clicks etc' with their hardware unlike issues I have had with other brands in the past.
I would recommend this mouse for anyone looking at getting into gaming on the pc and looking for a lightweight RGB mouse, you really cant go wrong with this Razer Cobra!
