Hello,
I am debating right now on which mouse to get. I like the Razer deathadder but it looks like the Logitech GPRO is lighter and smaller. If possible could someone please post a picture of the two mice side by side? Also which one do you guys like better? Thanks!

Best Regards, Goofygiggles

Logitech because Razeris shit as a company

I want an answer based on the mouse, not based on the company. If the mouse is bad because Razer uses cheap materials that's one thing because it affects the mouse.

That's a thing that happens.Then it will break and you will have to RMA and you end up talking with some guy who learned english in bangladesh and wait 6 months for a RMA

I think he's right though. AFAIK, Razer's products look really nice and work well, but break easily and are cheaply made. And I can vouch for Logitech's stellar quality. My dad has gotten a few of their speaker systems over the years, and still uses a small Logitech travel mouse. I've got one too, but my main driver is the stupendous MX Master. From what I've heard and seen, Logitech is perhaps the best mouse maker there is.

Like @Himommiesmentioned. Razer isn't that great of a company. Sure they where the gaming peripheral power house. But really I wouldn't recommend it. Trust me. 3 razer mouses. 2 Razer keyboard and 1 Razer mousepad. I love the keyboard, and the deathadder. But I recently switched from Deathadder to a G403 which is exactly like the deathadder but cheaper. Would recommend the g403 over the deathadder.

razer has a crap reputation amongst youngsters on the forum but they are too young to know that Razer started that whole gaming peripherals business and they've always exceled at it delivering top quality products...the only thing you can hold against them is that they are somewhat pricey.

Guys sorry I didn't mean to start a flame war here please

The deathadder is a great mouse, Besides the quality issue of course, I'm on my 3rd or 4th RMA'd Deathadder but I still love it to death.

Why? The shape and the sensor. Zowie and Hyper X both make 3310 sensor versions but I like the 3989 in the DA better, thats personal preference..

The 3366 sensor in the G pro is far more superior though. If you can get behind the egg shape then you should be happy of with the G pro.

 

Its down to what shape you like the most. The Zowie EC series and Hyper X Pulse fire are great alternative to the deathadder,

Hello,

HI Giggles, thanks for posting. I would say that based on an assessment of a) Price, b) device quality and c) functionality would lead me to recommend you the Logitech GPro over the Razer Deathadder.  **Note: give a look at the steelseries Rival 300, as Steelseries makes some great products as well**

 

a) GPro is $10 cheaper and is basically identical to the Deathadder. Now, while its technically true that the sensor on the Deathadder (up to 16000dpi) is better than the GPro (up to 12000dpi), this will not be noticed by the average gamer. Only an e-sports player might notice this minor difference.

 

b) The argument of "Razer is shit as a company", is a very emotionally laden and even subjective response. Unfortunately, having no anecdotal evidence in these such responses would likely be impossible to avoid. That said, I would tell you that the Logitech customer service experience is second to none. For example: I had a G700 mouse for right around two years and I called one day and said that the sensor just up and died one day. They asked a few questions and bingo-bango, they shipped me a brand new G700 mouse. Razer experience was less than preferable. Had to fill out a "proof of purchase" form to verify I legitimately had my razer keyboard (which began to wear out after 18months use). After which, it was determined that this was "normal wear and tear" and outside of the warranty period and would not refund/credit me anything.

 

c) The Deathadder is a bit larger than the GPro and is often not as user-friendly to smaller to average hand sizes. Button layout is near identical on both. build quality feels similar, though I might say the razer deathadder has a slight edge on feeling a bit more premium. Though the Logitech mouse fit my hand better and their required software is certainly less fiddly/cumbersome than Razer's software.

 

For all of these reasons I am deffering back to my original recommendation of the logitech GPro. Ultimately, I would highly encourage you to goto your local microcenter ( if applicable) and put both of these mice in your hands to determine what works best for you.

 

Hope this helps!

Don't forget to quote me (or someone else), otherwise we aren't going to receive your answers...
