The Razer Deathadder Essential is part of Razer's best selling and legendary Deathadder lineup of gaming mice, and while most of its "cousins" tend to lean on the pricier side, the Essential is one that definitely stands out from the rest. I bought this for less than $30, but I feel like I got way more than what I paid for because it doesn't feel like an entry level gaming mouse at all.It's surprisingly light and its ergonomic design is perfect for my hand size. Some of the mice that I used in the past would cause me to feel small levels of discomfort after hours of continuous use, but this was not the case with the Deathadder Essential. I used it for more than about 5 hours straight and I didn't feel any discomfort or numbness around my fingers at all.It's durable enough to last for up to 10 million clicks, and unless you double click the left and right mouse buttons with the speed of a raging jack rabbit during mating season, I doubt you're gonna be able to get through all of those clicks in the next 5 years or so.Some of the reviews that I've read here have aired complaints about the bloatware that comes with it, but for me it wasn't really an issue. When you first plug in the mouse it will require you to install Razer Synapse where you can sign up with Razer and customize your mouse as you see fit.I only customized the lighting options as the games that I play really aren't that heavy on macros. The Synapse software is pretty intuitive and easy to navigate, so most users shouldn't have a problem understanding it after a few minutes of tinkering with its settings.My only complaint about the Deathadder essential would have to be the material used for its build. I'm not saying it's flimsy and breaks easily, but it doesn't feel as "aesthetically pleasing" as its more expensive counterparts. The quality is decent, make no mistake about it, but I guess for less than $30 you really can't expect it to look and feel like the Razer Mamba or Deathadder V2.Final Verdict: The Deathadder Essential is a very good option for those who want to purchase a basic and affordable gaming mouse that feels great, works great, and has a pretty neat look to it.

Let me start by saying I LOVE this mouse. I've had the Razer Mamba Elite mouse for a few months now and decided to upgrade to fit my white set up. I looked damn near everywhere for this mouse, only to realize it was a Chinese exclusive! I didn't realize the white mouse on Razer's website for their Mercury collection was a Viper, not a DeathAdder. Anyway, so I took to Amazon. I bought this on a whim and then I realized that I probably didn't buy an authentic Razer product so I was worried about some inconsistencies in the quality I'm used to. Sure enough, the white DeathAdder does exist to Razer, just in a different country!

After receiving this mouse and getting it set up, I realized that there wasn't that big of a difference from that of my Mamba Elite. I was worried considering I had small hands and a lot of people say the DeathAdder was designed for larger hands. Safe to say, that is not true at all! If anything, my hands rested on the little clickers perfectly! The texture of the mouse felt nice as well. It's also a quiet click, if you're into quieter clicking switches. To note, if you're crazy about RGB (like I am) this probably is not the mouse for you. While the lighting on the mouse is nice, it is only white. But it sure is a BRIGHT white!

So to recap, the mouse serves its purpose. The color and texture is nice, so is the lighting, the DPI is adjustable but only within Synapse, fits nicely in the hand, and doesn't have that "cheap" feel to it. Awesome mouse at an awesome price point!

The mouse I had beforehand was a mouse that came with my gaming pc that I ordered. It was fine but it broke down REALLY fast. So I figured I'd just get a new mouse that wasn't too expensive. So I got this and in all honesty I don't regret it a single bit.

I'm not sure if this is the right way to put it, but it has a very "soft" click. Not that it isn't quiet, but the clicking is pretty quiet and satisfying. Not to mention I love the color of it. The actual mouse wire has a mesh wrapped around the wire so I love that as well because it makes potential tangling of the wire, minimal. I haven't changed any of the settings of the mouse myself yet but I know that it comes with it's own software to change it's settings (i'm assuming) yourself.

All in all, this is the first review I've left for a product and I didn't want to leave a review until after I've had the product for a few weeks. This mouse is awesome, and absolutely worth your money.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk

 This razer mouse is a really good mouse and it does game well with no major problems. The rgb on the mouse shines well nut it would've been better if their was an rgb version. I only have two complaints with this mouse. One is the mouse's price which is a bit overpriced but this is the cheapest razer mouse but you can get a similar mouse from a different company. My second problem is the software which downloads on the computer right when you plug it into the computer and i would've liked it if it was optionsl to download the software but if you dont like the software you can just uninstall the program. But other than that this mouse is great for drag clicking as well as functionallity which is really good. This mouse was made well as well I wouldn't expect anything different from razer.

I only have two complaints with this mouse. One is the mouse's price which is a bit overpriced but this is the cheapest razer mouse but you can get a similar mouse from a different company. My second problem is the software which downloads on the computer right when you plug it into the computer and i would've liked it if it was optionsl to download the software but if you dont like the software you can just uninstall the program. But other than that this mouse is great for drag clicking as well as functionallity which is really good. This mouse was made well as well I wouldn't expect anything different from razer.

Un mouse relativamente barato con un sensor parecido al g502 hero es bastante más ligero que el g502, software lo detecta así que si, es original, es muy cómodo y te puede durar fácil 6 meses, actualmente lo he cambiado pero me sirvió bastante muy buen mouse recomendado si va a ser tu primer mouse gamer (: (pa el valorant o csgo es una chulada)

Mouse muito perfeito para jogadores casuais e para quem nunca teve acesso a um mouse de qualidade antes. Seu acabamento é bom, seu led é bonito e desliza muito bem

The Razer DeathAdder Gaming Mouse is one of the most popular and well-reviewed gaming mice on the market. It has a simple and ergonomic design, a high-performance optical sensor, and durable and responsive switches. Here is my personal review of this mouse:

Pros:
- It is comfortable to use for almost any hand size and grip type, especially for palm and claw grips.
- It has a low and adjustable CPI range, a low lift-off distance, and a low click latency, which make it ideal for FPS and other fast-paced games.
- It has a minimalist and sleek look, with customizable RGB lighting and a braided cable.
- It has five programmable buttons, which can be customized with the Razer Synapse software.

Cons:
- It is not ambidextrous, so it may not suit left-handed users.
- It is relatively heavy, compared to some other gaming mice, and it does not have a weight adjustment feature.
- It does not have many extra features, such as a tilt wheel, a sniper button, or onboard memory.

Summary: The Razer DeathAdder Gaming Mouse is a great choice for gamers who want a simple, reliable, and comfortable mouse that can handle any game genre. It has a proven track record of performance, quality, and durability, and it is reasonably priced. It may not have many bells and whistles, but it does the basics very well.
