The Razer DeathAdder V2 and Basilisk V2 gaming mice feature a 20,000 DPI sensor and optical switches
Both models pack the latest gaming mouse internals in mildly refreshed designs
In brief: Razer's refresh of its popular DeathAdder and Basilisk gaming mice could prove to be a boon for casual and competitive FPS players alike, with lightweight bodies, faster internals, and added customization.
Razer DeathAdder V2
Given that its predecessor, the DeathAdder Elite, is one of the best gaming mice out there, the DeathAdder V2 needs to bring a lot to the table to surpass the original's appeal. Thankfully, the new model features plenty of improvements, including Razer's latest Focus+ 20,000 DPI optical sensor (with on-the-fly adjustment) for increased accuracy and support for up to five on-board memory profiles, a noticeable omission in the previous model.
The V2 also drops Omron's mechanical switches in favor of Razer's own optical ones that use infrared light to actuate "with an industry-leading response time of 0.2 milliseconds." Since the clicks are no longer based on mechanical switches, the mouse doesn't spend precious milliseconds filtering signals to account for 'debounce delay,' while also avoiding accidental presses.
The new optical switches are also meant to last longer, with Razer rating their durability for 70 million clicks, compared to 50 million for the DeathAdder Elite's mechanical buttons.
For connecting the V2, Razer now includes a 2.1m (7ft) 'Speedflex' cable instead of a standard braided wire for reducing snag and enabling smoother mouse dragging across surfaces.
Other V2 features include Razer's Smart Tracking, Motion Sync, and Asymmetric cut-off for scoring 'game-winning headshots
