The Razer Viper is one of the best mice ever made and now they've made it into an amazingly low latency wireless mouse called the Viper Ultimate. It seems to out perform Logitech mice in my latency testing, which is amazing considering Logitech wireless keeps up with wired.
And what's more surprising? It's said to have 70 hours of battery life while weighing only 74 grams. Welcome to the new age of wireless mice. Razer and Logitech are dominating right now but I expect we'll see more and more like these.
So this video is a review for the Viper Ultimate but also a comparison with the Logitech G Pro Wireless. Both absolutely outstanding and amazing mice, but which is right for you? Well, it might help to watch these reviews too:
Razer Viper (Wired): • Razer Viper Review - C...
Logitech G Pro Wireless: • Logitech G Pro Wireles...
I think it's mostly about the shape. Performance is solid on both, with the Razer Viper Ultimate edging the win with updated quality and features compared to the year old G Pro Wireless.
30/10/2019 Update on potential issue: So the issue was that the mouse would randomly stop working for 50ms or so. Razer got onto it immediately and have now released a firmware update, check the official link here so you can get the update: support.razer.com/gaming-mice...

The line people are getting confused about at 6:43 I said "personally, I prefer their shape over the Logitech G Pro Wireless, along with the features".

For me I think it's a wireless tech issue. I had a few wireless mice do the same on me. Most recently the Corsair Harpoon RGB the same thing. When it happens in Rainbow Six siege ranked... I just ended up going back to the Logitech G Pro wired version, but it's so damn small it cramps my hand.
That sometimes happens with my ul2, but had only happened few times
I've used the Razer Mamba Wireless and didn't have the issue... seems odd the newer tech would get this issue when they're aware of things like this happening. Razer can't replicate it so I'm a bit lost on this one. We'll see what others say once they get one.
is it after you dont move the mouse or say mid game/use
Rocket Jump Ninja I had the viper too but the software was buggy. I had a similar issue to rocket jump ninja except mine would disconnect for like half a second to a second. Threw off my aim during csgo. I just refunded it and went with the g pro wireless. Overall best decision.

been really loving the g pro wireless, the slightly higher centre makes all the difference to me over something like the g305 which I have also, if the viper is a little shallower in the centre I think id still prefer the g pro but will have to get one in hand, thanks for review.
@Lamp yep it did, logitech asked me for a proof video of me testing it on a website and then sent me a replacement, I've since given it to my sister and bought a g502 wireless.
I'd love to hear your opinion on the Zaunkoenig M1K.
Hi Zy, how hard was it for you to make the adjustments from using the deathadder or other larger mice to smaller mice you use now?
Thanks for the review! I saw it and after some thinking (5 months 😂) I decided to give it a try. I bought this mouse two weeks ago and I'm so happy with it. It's such a great mouse and on the second I started using it I felt the different, two weeks later my aim is 5 times better. I can say without hesitating that it's worth the price. My only issue with it is the software, but this is such a minor problem compare to this great product overall. I used to dislike Razer's products so the fact that I can say "good job Razer" without even thinking twice says something. If you can afford it, I suggest you give it a try, I'm really doubt you won't be as pleased with it as I am.
If it is just the tracking that is lost for a bit, and not also the clicks -it might be related to the calibration / lift-off distance (try setting it to max and using other pads).
I actually had the G Pro Wireless, saw Dave2Ds video (yours is much more detailed though, great job!) and ordered one. I am not 100% happy with the mouse wheel yet (it rattles a bit when moving up) but otherwise I definetely like it. The dock is great, the feeling of the mouse with the rubber on the sides is better and I definetely like the switches. They just feel so satisfying and I don't have to worry about double clicks anymore. The Razer of course isn't cheap, I got mine for 130€. I had a voucher for the Logitech store so I got my G Pro Wireless for 75€, hopefully because of that I won't loose any/not much money when selling it on Ebay.
Thanks for this great analysis Zy, i ordered the razer viper ultimate
Hopefully they will update the Mamba's wireless version. I just love the shape of that mouse but if it was lighter, that would be a pro
Why a wireless mamba when you could ask for a wireless Deathadder

The temporary disconnect is from having more than one mouse plugged in. I have this issue with two work mice and almost always another gaming mouse.
Nahhh i only have 1 connect and still have It..
rocket jump ninja... you are the best mouse reviewer that there has ever been. 💯👍 big ups to you thought : is there a chance because of the raw speed and frequencies involved with the sensor tracking along with the wireless signal, that other electromagnetic parameters are affecting this potential problem that you propose??? things like other wireless technologies and frequencies, such as other wireless, Bluetooth, wifi, etc, etc, etc... that could be interfering with the input?
Just wanted to quickly mention something related to the issue in your description. I'm currently using a Steelseries m600 and I sometimes have a very similar issue where the mouse will just randomly stop tracking for maybe half an inch of distance an then pick up again where it left off. Seems to happen more commonly when moving directly up and down (on the axis of the head/scroll wheel of the mouse). Just thought I would mention that, maybe other people might have similar problems
Been on the G403 for a couple of years now, thanks for the advice on it by the way, but for a few months now the rubber around spots where my thumb and ring finger grip have begun to scoff, or blister, or something. Well whatever it is, it can get really distracting. Mouse works perfectly fine otherwise, but would consider getting a new one with a different style of grip since this doesn't seem to last that much. Not really sure exactly what yet, will have to dig into your videos more, but I like the feel of the buttons Logitech has, yet don't like the shape of the GPro. Anyway, that's it for my rant, now time to boot QC since your videos always make me want to do a few rounds, even as a filthy casual. Shit's fun yo.

I love my Gpro Wireless, my only issue is that it is too short. I am a claw/palm user and didnt measure my hands before purchasing- now I almost exclusively have to play claw and awkwardly engulf the mouse with my palm and run my fingers along my mat to play palm grip. I tend to hold and adjust my mouse with hand and thumb respectively, so I am looking for the next mouse that is slightly longer or larger with all the features of the Gpro. Thanks Zy
i was reviewer on this mouse and beta tester and i did no see the issue about the 50ms disconnect but yes it save only rgb on off on the mouse, not the settings,and yes the older wheel was better
@Jnys side button yes, but the main clicks are strange a bit.
Can you run these on a motherboard you can overclock bandwidth settings to see what one runs at the fastest transfer speeds.
I am thinking of Buying The Viper Ultimate as my Logitech g900 needs replacing, but i have been let down in the past with the Razer Mamba 2012 edition so i am Worried to go back. from your description that the Viper would disconnect for 50ms randomly concerns me. has the firmware update really fixed this even now? as the mamba 2012 would disconnect a lot!

The main selling point of the Viper for me is the anti-double click.I've gone through multiple G Pro Wireless mice because of that problem, so to be able to have a reliable clicking mechanism that I know won't degrade is a huge plus. Holidays can't come soon enough 😬
Soul Index thats some questionable logic considering its a kind of widely known fact that the g pro qa is shit and the problem is the 50m omrons which isnt a problem on any other mice. the vipers optical switches have to be the absolute worst part of the mouse even as someone who’s mained it since release since they feel like mushy garbage because of the fake clicker.

I had double clicking on my G pro wireless and switched to Razer. It's honestly the best decision ever. thnx for making the point in your video. it's a very crucial factor to longevity of the mouse. I am still using the G915 keyboard though lol.
I come back and the channel now has over 200k subs. 15k to 200k. "someone give this man a cookie!! and more gaming mice to review!!"
I saw you had the ROCCAT 120 aimo on our desk. Would love your thoughts on that keyboard.
Keyboard is a keyboard ... as long as it feels ok and it fits then it good ....
I have that keyboard. Got it after using a Blackwidow chroma v2 and a K95 RGB Platinum. I gotta say this keyboard is very distinct. It's not that bulky like all the other keyboards, and has a really clean look. The keycaps are like laptop keys and it feels like it helps with a lighter keypress, the switches are clear so the RGB shines through really nicely. It was easy setting up some effect through their software, and the best thing is that it will stay on the keyboard forever because of the built-in memory. The switches feel similar to cherry mx brown, but these once actuate faster. Really nice board to type and game on, nice keyfont too, nothing too fancy really but it works fantastically.
@@ricardosteijn4693 thank you
hey love the vid, you know if you could do a review on the g wolves hati?
My Razer Naga and old wireless Razer mamba had the tracking issue you talked about where they would stop responding randomly. Im using a death adder elite and so far I haven't experienced this same issue but it's taken me around 3-4 years to come back to razer mice because of the issue and the only reason I have returned to razer mice is because I got a death adder elite as a gift.
Please do a review on the Huntsman Tournament Edition
My Razer Viper Ultimate also has a mouse wheel that sounds like that. I’m wondering how common that is and if it really is a big deal. Perhaps a defect like you said.
Got mine 2 days ago. The wheel is fine. The only problem is clicking the side buttons but u can just disable it with the software so its all good.
Is it worth getting it? I have Razer mamba wireless which does me well still although in very rare circumstances whenever I flick to right or left, I look straight down when playing fps like OW.
I currently own a razer basilisk and I really like the shape and comfort but I would like a lower weight mouse. What would be a good wireless improvement?
ok so as someone how enjoys using the razer mamba wireless and feels very comfortable holding it with palm grip. should i get the razer viper ultimate?
Julian Collazo no because the viper is more for claw grippers

I have both G502 old prometheus for over 2 years and also now the new hero... Maybe is just in my country, but both of them had the doble click issues. Is static that acumulate somewhere on the mouse, you get rid of it by blowing air on the left click (since is the only button with that issue). So far more than 2 weeks without issues, also the sensor was going crazy when I bought it, for some reason after a month use the new hero works ok now, no issues. The prometheus sensor was even worst, had it to replace to 500ms to fix the tracking issues, but the hero seem to work just fine at 1000ms response time. I know is the mouse, because I completly upgrade the PC this year and problems on the prometheus where still persisting (also you can read same issues on the internet). Hope they solve their doble click issues in the future or I'm swiching to another brand, at least the doble click has a solution but is annoying to have to blow the thing once a week when the problem return.
Mine arrives Friday! I'm so excited, I tried the viper when it launched in August and returned it because I knew immediately that they were going to make a wireless one eventually. I just didn't expect it to be so soon and with a better sensor, dock, and other software controlled features (very useful ones at that). It is really cool seeing limits being pushed with each new release from these companies, except steelseries, their stuff's garbage lol, with exception to their mousepads.
so how'd your honeymoon period go with the mouse? planning on getting one some time this week. would love to hear your thoughts
@@-kestrel00 hiya! I'm absolutely loving it, normally, with any other mouse, I would've gone back to something else or second guessed it in some way, but this has been on my desk since I got it. The dock is sooooo nice for charging. I set the lighting on it to indicate my battery level at all times so I don't have to open synapse to check. When I first got it though, I had to contact Razer for a firmware update because I was getting the momentary tracking loss like Zy mentioned in the description, but since that, I've had zero problems. And I'm sure they've updated that since for everyone out of the box.
Krenzzler Im glad that its been really good for you and the problem was quickly resolved. I try to use things long term with no regrets and from what you and everyone else has been saying this has to be that mouse. Thanks for your input! Now im really excited to get the mouse
@@-kestrel00 oh absolutely, especially at this price, but I don't think you'll be disappointed. I'm very picky when it comes to mice, and this thing hasn't disappointed me. The only thing you'll need a round or two to get used to is the clicks. They feel slightly mushy compared to something like omerons, but I got used to it super fast. I hope you enjoy it as much as I am!
Review on the G Wolves Hati?
Both great mouses, but i have large hand and i use palm grip, so the gpro is a lot better for me.
Excelente, REview, thanks RJN
Really debating between this 2. I have big hands and fingertip style but this seem like the best out there. I would go for the viper but unfortunately you cant store macros in there and I cant install the crappy synapse everywhere I go...
im a bit confused about what u said about which one will u choose between this two mouses... 6:44 personally i prefer the shape of the logitech g pro wireless 6:56 for top spot, my pick is razer viper ultimate, it has the better shape for me
Read the other comments I've replied to.
Pretty sure he says I prefer the shape over the logitech g pro wireless at the earlier timestamp.
I was litteraly looking to buy one of these!

I just literally bought one of these. Still feel like my old DeathAdder Elite beats it. Lighting is sick though.
I take that back, this thing is sick.

@@Player-wr8yk Yeah man, I gave my wife my old DeathAdder Elite while I have the wireless Viper. Now when she has trouble with something on her PC and I walk over to help her, I notice the huge weight decrease, preferred click pressure, and side button feel the Viper offers. I was super critical at first, but I definitely say the Viper is far superior now.
The issue you're describing I also had the same problem with the g pro. I resolved with the gpro when I added the wire extension to the wireless dongle instead of plugging the dongle right into the pc.

@@seki5277 just my personal experience those dongles can be finicky especially if hes got a lot of USB equipment plugged in.

I got the viper ultimate and is it just me or has the mousewheel a really strong resistance? I had the rival 600 before and its a huge difference with that mousewheel :D
The 3399 seems snappier/more responsive and "raw" then my other mice with a 3360 sensor. It is the mouse that I feel is closest to my old Intellimouse 3.0 in terms of that 1:1 hand to screen feeling.
Than
When you test new sensor, could you test if it do not deviate after a long time not lifting the mouse (for example in FPoSu) it is important for people with very high sens who do no lift the mouse often
deviation is caused by your own wrist movements, not the sensor
would the razer viper unimate be good for me i use a razer mamba elite and i wanted to either the razer or the new g pro x superlight
Hello. I just need help. Iv been reddit but i want to ask yiu personally to make my decision final. I have a claw grip and 18.5 by 7.5 hand size and i want to get the gpw or viper ultimate. What can you recomend to me? The gpw is on 30 percent discount and vpu is on full price. Thank you and will be looking forward to hearing from you
I have used both mouse for a long time and here’s my perspective, Logitech does have a better grip on the mouse but the trade off is the horrible double click issue on the mouse and this can be a massive issue for FPS gamers as every time when you open scope it somehow close and reopens the scope again which is extremely irritating and can easily determine win or lose. Viper on the other hand has a decent grip but not as good as g pro but it does not have any issue with double clicking or anything malfunctions about the mouse except it does have a bit inaccurate dpi but its only a bit doesn’t really matter that much so in the end i use viper over g pro which is about half the price and double the performance
I have the g903 and im getting the same double click issue and RMB issue with unscoping, is your viper still good if you see this? Thinking i should get one since its half off.
@@wowo1005 Try blowing the dust from under the button :) worked for many people
I wish the side of the lmb and rmb was covered like on the gpro wireless. I like to rest my ring finger there and I hate mice where I can feel the buttons going up and down from the side.
I love resting my ring finger halfway on the side of my g502 and I truly need something like that shape but at the most only 80g.
As for the viper ultimate issue where it stops working that is still happening on my recent purchase. I even updated the firmware but it did not stop the issue at all. I just started using the replacement that was sent to me and fingers crossed that this one will work out.
I've had the same issue with the mouse not responding for short periods of time on two G403 wireless mice and a G703 wireless. Some type of interruption that happens and it creates this like stutter in game you will notice when it happens. It was getting so bad on both my G403 models and I had to replace them through Logitech warranty. Only has happened a few times on my G703 but worry it will get worse.
Well got my viper like two weeks ago and then this comes out... fell in love with the viper so it seems I will be picking up also this ultimate version :)

Probably a combination of your personal hand size and your grip style. Good to hear people are choosing the more comfortable option for themselves rather than what's newest!!
@@Perceptence great choice mate.

I bought one of these, and it's starting to squeak on clicks after only like three days of use. Did you have this problem? Do you still consider this the best of the best? I'm half considering returning it and replacing it.
the issue you have with the mouse having micro stutters, I've experienced with all Razor mice that are wireless and wired. It never happened in wired mode, but in wireless I found significant issues with tracking performance. (This is coming from older razor mice that I had experiences with. I also had that same issue with my most recent corsair Dark Core. I boiled it down to RF interference. I've since, exclusively used the Glorious Model O.
When is the website going to come out
I like that you mentioned the cable. I frequently use my g pro wireless when it is plugged in and charging (not for gaming but for browsing or general computer work) and the cable is pretty annoying. Cheers!

Ordered Viper Ultimate( no store were I lived had it so ordered blind). Ended up deciding to return it because of shape. According to everything I read before ordering the mouse it seemed like it should fit me but the mouse felt flimsy in my hand. I am used to an old Logitech G5 which is a big heavy mouse. I am using fingertip grip. My hands are 20.5 cm long, 11.5 cm wide. Problem with the Viper was it didn't fill up my hand when I held it fingertip style. Had a lot more empty space at the back of the mouse than I am used to. I am sure I could have gotten used to it but since it was so expensive I figured best to return it if I have any doubts and get something else instead. Went today to a store and tried some mice and two that I liked were BenQ zowie za12 and 13. Might buy one of those. Surprisingly the Zowie 13 which I guess is a small mouse felt like it fitted my hand great when I held it like I prefer. Just worry that not having software for that mouse will be a problem. I like to play old games and very often those games can't recognize sidebuttons. You would have to program the sidebutton beforehand to act as a keystroke to make it work. Does it exists programs that can do this for a mouse without its own software?
I guess your grip is palm claw hybrid. Since you want a portion of the hump to touch your palm and youre holding it with your fingertip. When you say fingertip grip, it means no other part of your had is touching the mouse rather than your fingertips. Because of this, then yeah..the viper is not suited for your grip style. Its best for real fingertip and claw grip.
New gpw ultralight said to be 60 grams cant wait.
I have both. G Pro first. It started having double-clicking issues thanks to shitty Omron switches. So I bought the Viper Ultimate at the same time I ordered Kailh red mouse switches to replace the ones in the G Pro. Once I replaced the switches... Honestly, now my Viper Ultimate is a nice decoration on my desk. I use the G Pro with the new switches, it is so good. I only use the viper when I am charging the G Pro.
was it difficult doing it? what did you pay for the switches?
can you also change the switches on the g pro wired?
SeLpHy they are like 3 dollars a switch and its not exceptionally hard
@@selphy_ you only need basic soldering skills and you can switch them out, not that hard to be honest.
I have large hands so the gpro was tiny for me and like you said, the inevitable double clicking issue. Ordered the viper today and hopefully it lives up to the hype.
Love Razer Products. My backup mouse is an old Deathadder 3.5G from 2009 and it’s rock solid. Will definitely upgrade to this one!
Really good video. I think personally I'm going to wait to see what Logitech has in store for their next wireless mouse. I use the G Pro wireless but would like to get the same quality with a smaller size and better shape. If the viper were smaller I'd probably pick it up
Just get the Model O- or MM710 and set it up properly with a bungee, it feels wireless. The cables on those are literally unnoticeable if you set it up correctly, I've stopped using my G Pro Wireless for this reason.
to know the shape of the both first we need to buy it LOL
Yep, unless you live in a place that has them on display. Where I live we dont have them on display :(
Feel like g pro is for bigger hands. I exchanged my vipor 3 times because it had lots of manufactured error on clicks. Finally got one that clicked right on both sides without making mushy sound. The design is complex do each side if not bolted on right can wave side ways when you click it
The sides on the viper are more slippery for me than the ones on the gpw. I dont know what the rubber is for.
?
Wow i actully wanted to see a GPW vs Viper ultimate nice i got noti on this guy
Does any good wireless mouse have locking scroll wheel? I cant find any info? I get a problem with logitech mouses that the scroll dosnt do a full scroll and sometimes (too often) scrolls with a light touch to it..
Anyone else having issues with the viper ultimate? I've had to send two back already because the charging dock straight up doesn't work most of the time and the click started to get creaky within a month. Have I just got bad luck or is this common?
It’s a common issue, mine has it too
Clean the pin area with cloth mine had too but its all good now
I've been using a Corsair Harpoon for years, out of these two mice can anyone tell me which is more similar to a Harpoon grip wise?
Ik it’s a old comment but neither are similar at all really
@@ramenoodles1789 Old comment but not too late, still haven't bought either one. Still iffy on the mice, I know either one is a big upgrade from the Harpoon but I'm just so use to it that learning a new grip would be an annoying ass process. Glad to know they're not similar, I've heard the HyperX Pulsefire Dart is similar so I'm leaning towards that but still looking at options.
@@Corthmic if you are not playing competitive I think its no big deal.
Besides the wireless signal being the problem, it could most likely be a fault in the battery-saving/sleep-mode feature of the mouse firmware that is not behaving correctly.
I got the viper. I find the main buttons require more force to press, than I'm used to g502. It happens sometimes that i press to shoot and i dont press hard enough so i have to press it again. Its rare but it happens. Also my ring finger rests often at the side of the right main button and some times it gets clipped when i press it. Logitech solution is better, because the side go way up, so there is no gap on the sides.
i just ordered a viper wireless since my g pro has double clicking issues now on both right and left after about 9 months
I have 3x G Pro and they all have double clicking
@@muumuumu send me one lol
yeah man sucks cause i really love this mouse. viper is aight but i aim better with the gpro for sure
just ordered mm710 aswell haha
i’d think about switching but i don’t want synapse anywhere near my pc...
Have to agree
literally 100. synapse is cancer
@Koome Any specifics? I've never used it.
J Razer Synapse is easy
Used synapse for years and I was so relieved to leave it behind when I changed my last razer product out
Will you try the G-wolves Hati? It seems to be an incredible mouse.
I faced this issue which you discussed in description while playing Battlefield V when aiming down sight on machine guns but this happen to my logitech G102, G304 and a non gaming mouse. I think it has to do with game engine, it's not a hardware issue.
3:05 you're a legend for pointing this out
Part of being a good reviewer is being unbiased and stating all the facts - that's also one of the reasons RJN is the GOAT of mouse reviews.
Who else got like 4 notifs at once lol
I only got 3 from Rjn, bt, randomfrankp
Ya all at the same time
I am the alpha and the omega
Rafa clarence check out David Lee too
It will be 5 if dimitry doing a review too LOL
I use a 502 wireless, and the weight feels very centered. When I am using my roommate's G Pro Wireless, it feels heavier near the buttons without the weight, and near the rear with the weight. How is the weight balance of the Viper?
Great video 😊 But what is the price for the razer ?
there's something about that g pro wireless that I just like
Probably the fact that you already spent $150 on it and don't want to admit there's a better wireless mouse.
@@chillskid ....
Zy your problem that you are talking about in the description is common The problem is that you got the usb ports microchip in your motherboard being over limiting the signals ... (like a router having too many devices to handle) , the solution is to use a decent usb extender or use the front usb port Maraksot does a very good job explaining why this is happening kzhead.info/sun/ZaueeLpqoZ2ep6M/bejne.html
I didn’t know I had to specifically say you return the product when you ask for a refund, I might’ve thought that would’ve been common sense. There was no need to be so hostile.
However, it’s alright I forgive you. Some of us just have those days. So I hope your day goes better for you.
Yandel Garcia_ are u replying to the wrong comment?? What you’re saying doesn’t seem relevant to what deadshot is talking about
Pizza Time probably a deleted comment
kinds not in time but thank you :)
Today is launched viper V2 pro. I'm looking forward to the review :)
It's really good to be back to PCMR .. thank you for this review. But have you ever experienced double clicking? Especially when not cleaning it like every 12hrs?
never experienced double clicking on mine, and some days i play more than 13 hours... have the G PRO for around 5 months now.
@@TiagoFernandes81 I see, thank you :)
Honestly if razed made a ultralight wireless mouse with the same specs as the viper ultimate and under $200 I’d so buy it
you just described the viper ultimate
@@not1716 viper mini*
@@bruhwtf2662 the viper mini isnt wireless?
You literally just described what was in the video lmao
I just bought the razer viper last week. Time to return it for this
Do it mate :)
For poor wireless technology? If you want haha
G oro better there is reason why its 150$
@@MrKarli120 imagine thinking wireless is not as good as wired in 2019
@@Dupylo maybe he means the disconnection/lag issue a few people have faced with viper
can you review the G-wolves Hati it has a very similar shape to the g pro wireless and its 61g give or take
Looks good. Will wait to see if Logitech responds with a updated G Pro. G305 working perfectly fine atm.
The G305 is still the best wireless mouse lmao. Wireless isn't really that important though, with the cables on mice like the Model O- and MM710 and a good bungee setup they feel wireless and are better overall mice.
