#logitech #razer #g305 #orochiv2
as someone who has used the orochi v2 and was originally a claw grip user, im looking more toward the logitech g305 just because of how tiny the orochi v2 was, for day to day use (even though im gaming most of the time) the feel of being practically forced to push the orochi v2 by your fingertips constantly whether its to look for a video on youtube or just scrolling through social media hasnt been fun, and even as a 16 year old with very small hands it just felt too short of a mouse
Thanks for the review, will be getting a orochi v2 white one for my light desk setup : )
NICE! 😊
You just _influenced_ the upcoming purchase decision. Thank you for advice. LIKE deserved.
I’m glad you found the video helpful. Enjoy! 😊
I bought a g305 a month ago for around 25 dollar us. Orochi v2's best current price is around 45 dollar us. After this video I was like okay maybe I should have bought the orochi but price to performans ratio is literally okay for me. I am going to mod g035 aaa lithium battery to reduce its weight around 70ish grams and thats okay for me. Great review and great video
Thanks. Glad your enjoying the G305. It's a good mouse, especially at that price! 😊
i used both of these and i recently switched to fantech aria, i can recommend that instead if you don't mind a slightly larger mouse
The Orochi v2 is the most comfortable small mouse I ever used. I like the egg shape, since my pinky rests comfortably without being pushed towards the bottom of the mouse (like the hourglas shaped Viper Mini does) and the small curvature for the thump feels great to me. I grip it with a relaxed claw, however I push the back of the mouse rather againt the joint of my thump than against my wrist, since this mouse is short. You might want to consider the forward placement of the sensor, so movements with your wrist (like flicking) might feel faster.
Glad you’re enjoying it and thanks for sharing your tips on what works best for you as I’m sure it will help others out too. 😊
garbage
I had both mice, and love them both. Honestly I can't pick which one I like more.
I never use the side buttons. And i can still not fine a good replace mouse for my Logitech m170 model. Small easy to use. Only a lit slow for games . Still use it for game . Reason is i use finger spider movement with my mouse. Really the mouse use finger only to move it. In the games i play is sniper . So small correct movement is all i need.
thanks for reviewing
You’re welcome! 😊
Just ordered an Orochi, used a Pro Click Mini for a couple years and was very satisfied with it.
You’ll have to let us know what you think of it when you get it. 👍
Just ordered the mice, you've convinced me i won't regret it :D you're sick so sick with the awp bro
which one did you end up getting?
@@MyTechGear Oops i commented on the wrong video 😂 it was a video where someone was playing csgo with the orochi. Well I have the orochi for a week now and i love it. Been a zowie user for years. I love the size and weight.
@@jaquan874 can u share ur long term experience
@@SunburnX I only used it for a few months and stopped playing cs. I liked it at first but didn’t like the balance feel of the mouse. It was heavy at the back and light at the front due to the battery. Using a smaller battery helped a bit. That’s all I can say.
@@jaquan874 what mouse would u recommend buying nowadays for the price range of 40-50$? Do u think the Orochi V2 is still worth it or no?(i need a mouse for cs2)
I used the Razer Death Adder forever, and it eventually caused my shoulder and wrist pain. I then started trying ergonomic mice, which the Microsoft took first place, but I then started using a Microsoft mobile mouse which was surprisingly way better for my arm ergonomics. I realized that the big mouse would consume my whole hand's joints functions, and send all the micro actions up into my wrist and shoulder as I moved the mouse around, but the tiny mouse allowed for my fingers to steer around, and gave me much more accuracy as well as joint relief. I ended up getting the Orochi v2 on a blackfriday deal just to try it out, and completely loved it as soon as I plugged it in. Perfect shape and size for a large hand to use just the finger tips and "claw" style of holding a mouse. I really enjoy it and feel like it increased my gaming performance drastically. I was called out as a "hacker" when I went 40 and 4 in Squad when someone parked a BMP I was gunning on a river side and I flicked the mouse around taking out anyone who popped their head up. Not to mention the texture on the Orochi is so nice, I constantly notice how good it feels on my hand, not slick and greasy like the microsoft mouse, and about half the weight.
Great to hear that you’re enjoying your new mouse! 😊
The deathadder shape is pure crap
I used the DA back in 2016 and the damn thing feels like a dumbell. Switched to G304 ever since
I have crap pc and razer synapse is literally the best mouse software ive ever used.
I have always used palm grip, and my hand from mider finger to wrist is about 6.5'', Im tending to buy to the razer orochi v2, but I dont know if I will be able to use palm grip because of its size, should I go for the G305 instead?
I think the Orochi is a bit small for palm grip. The G305 would be better for that. It does depend on the size of your hand though.
Great review.
Thanks! 😊
This guy knows his stuff, good review
Thanks Peter! 😊
i started with the g305. switched the the orochi for about 2ish years. and now having to switch back to the g305 due to the scroll wheel acting up on the orochi. kinda sucks, but the software for the g305 is much better than razers synapse.
you were definitely smoking that pack when you wrote that g hub is better than synapse😂
@@cottenedkeys I’ve had more issues with synapse than ghub. Synapse would steal focus. Causing games to minimize. If I closed synapse, the problem goes away. I would have to close synapse every time after starting my pc.
@DPZ420 mm, I've never had that with my synapse, but at the end of the day, you never need the software of these mice after setting it up so doesn't matter
@@cottenedkeys yea. That’s a good point. You can just save the settings to the mouse.
I used both and the scroll wheel thing is present on both. Just a matter of time/luck on when the symptoms appear.
Logitech buttons double click so quickly and the scroll wheel is the low quality gummy rubber type that becomes smooth and sticky with use, basically a disposable mouse. Orochi is better in build quality, but needs some love from Razer, update it like the other series, give it gen 3 optical switches, add the option of using a cable and it will be the best egg shaped mouse ever. I mean for egg lovers, they only keep giving viper mini/deathadder mini updates but nothing for Orochi. Sames goes for Logitech, none of the updated goodies for their G203/G102/G305/G Pro Hero.
I could buy 2 G305 for the price of one Orochi V2. Looking for a replacement for my 3 years old G305... seems like I'm buying another G305 again.
I guess. The mouse feel, better feet, mechanical buttons and scroll wheel are more premium on the orochi v2 over the g305. I have both and the razor mouse is definitely a tier above the g305 in function and use.
@@passionatetechnology8306 got some extra cash this week. ordered both Orochi and G305. Open the box, tested the Orochi... and it's too small for me. Returning the Orochi.
@@warnacokelat it’s good you have it a chance to see your own preference
Pretty much LOL I’ve had mine for 3 years ans i wanna upgrade but doesn’t seem to be a mouse I would like to trade it for
broo me too. 305 is just too good been using this for 3 years. i change battery every 3 months, Left and right click are still fine, but my side buttons are dead. do you end up buying G305 again?? i still can't decide between orochi or G304
After 2.5 years, the mouse suddenly stopped working on the AA battery, and when using the AAA battery, it started having problems with power supply and therefore started to stop working. I am a computer geek, I love equipment and I take care of it, my mouse has never fallen on the floor, ever. I will repeat, after the warranty expired, the mouse stopped working on an AA battery, but it works but stops working on an AAA battery. I don't know how long you've had this mouse, but you could write to me in two years if you don't forget whether you also have this problem, whether it's a manufacturing defect or I just got a bad one.
I've had my 305 for 3 years and it has clicking issues. Lots of picking are having issue with clicking.
Hey Tech Gear, is the click noise of Orochi v2 less than G305 ? Thanks
They’re pretty much the same.
Wireless sensor on Logitech is shit... As my PC is near my router, Logitech stutters. When used further away, its ok. Initially I thought my Logitech was spoilt and bought a new one. Ended up, same issues. Have both 304, 305d very sensitive to interference. Razer on the other hand, no such issues perfectly smooth, no stutters, no matter where.
are the g304 and g305 same because i couldn't find g305 in amazon india
yes
In india g304 is so much cheaper than the Razer orochi
Yes, they’re the same. It’s just called the G304 in certain regions, like India.
W review. Now im sure in my choice. Orochi it is.
Thanks! You’ll have to let me know what you think of it once you get it.
You use lower DPI for gaming? Why?
Here's an article from Redragon that talks about some of the pros and cons of high vs low DPI settings -> redragonshop.com/blogs/community/the-ultimate-guide-to-understanding-gaming-mouse-dpi
Just buyed a razer orochi V2 for just $24.54. A real bargain
That’s an awesome price! Was that new?
Fingers crossed it turns up. You’ll have to let me know what you think of it when it does.
@@MyTechGear I will send you my feedback. When the mouse arrives in my house, i'm gonna test it in some games. Already have Razer basilisk X hyperspeed, such a good mouse too.
How the hell did you find it at that price
@@miguelpereira9859 Aliexpress. Have used discount coupon. Brand New, original. I have a fazer basilisk hyperspeed, from the same seller. The last mouse i have buyed was Corsair Katar Elite Wireless. But that one from a local store
I got the orochi on discount for 42 dollars
Nice!
nice
Thanks! 😊
Hero sensor from g305 has better power efficiency than orochi sensor........In real life with 1 aaa battery you can play 1 month on g305 or 1 week on orochi......But others stat better on ororchi like weight, build quality, durability switches and etc........
Which one should i get i am undecided
It is really up to you and depends on what you want. Hopefully the info in the video has helped.
@@ahmetburakozyldz3116 Hangisini aldın ?
@@SerdarDogan_ razer orochi on numara gönül rahatlığıyla alabirsin
turning on power savings on orochi doesn't impact performance but extends battery life greatly
Fantech Aria XD7>>>>>>>>>>
Do NOT buy the orochi v2. You have to go through hell just to get it to actually work. Bad bad drivers and very hard to fix it. The Logitech works as soon as you plug it in. Also Razer synapse causes massive lag and strain on the cpu even causing lock ups and crashes. Do not ever buy from Razer.
@@SpookiexDookie you don’t need to use the razer software or Logitech software after manually setting your desired dpi settings for each mouse. You can use the software for each and then just uninstall the software. The settings are stored on the mouse’s memory.
I bought it and I'm not having any of the problems that you're having. It worked as soon as I plugged it in and synapse has very minimal resource usage. i don't know where you got that information from
V2 works perfectly fine for me...
Been using the v2 for about a year no problems
i used both and this is just wrong lmao, synapse is shit but let's not pretend like new g hub is any better, could be something wrong with your pc
