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.

For a budget mouse, works great. No complaints. Buttons work, don’t stick and mouse wheel is smooth.

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 is great, I give the hardware 5 stars. I took off a star because the software, while polished in appearance, was not intuitive and setting up the macro gave me an error, even though the macro worked. It told me I needed an additional app/download, but didn't tell me how to get it. (The very simple application interface in the cheap no-name mouse I replaced was actually better, even though it was not pretty.)

This is my 2nd Razer DeathAdder Essential mouse and 4th Razer mouse in general as I am a big fan of Razer products. This particular mouse is a perfect size and ergonomically designed to fit any hands…it’s 6400 DPI; super duper responsive and has different speed choices that one can select by just pressing a button. This is particularly useful when you are playing games vs office work etc. The mouse works by default with any windows OS; you can also download the Razer software to customize the device further. I use this mouse predominantly for office work but also do occasional gaming in my new gaming PC. I also like the white color as it matches with my white PC.

I have beat the ever loving hell out of this mouse. Literally SMASHING!!!! it out of uncontrollable anger, Then breaking it further by forcing parts back together. Swinging it by its cord into the cement floor, SHAT-TER-ING it, then forcing it back together, Poor thing, It's my internet that's the real problem, but the mouse is the one in the cross hairs in my fits of rage, still works great. But I think I need to get one with better tech, Even though it's working just the same as when I bought it. Just incase new tech sucks, ill keep ole smashee around.
