Everything WRONG With The Razer Viper v3 PRO (shocking)

Covering a few of the (subjective) issues with the viper v3 pro I've seen online these past few days. I still have pretty much nothing bad to say about it, but there are definitely some people this isn't for despite being a safe design. GPX comparison soon!

Question. If i love my viper v2 pro with pulsar v2 superglides on a razer strider pad, do you think ill love this new shape? im a little worried the shape may throw me off
@cam7851
Ай бұрын
I don’t think it’s worth the upgrade if you already like the shape of the v2. The specs are almost identical apart from a 5 gram weight difference. I’m hoping they make another mouse with the original viper shape in the future.
@d.ink3d
Ай бұрын
No, if you love the V2 shape no reason to switch, you can buy 8k dongle separately if you really care about it, got the V2 myself and i see no reason to buy the V3
Loving mine. ~20x10 hand. Super smooth on a glass pad
how does it compare to the ULX large/can you include it in the comparison video?
@boardzy
Ай бұрын
Yes I will include it, I prefer it over the ULX large, to put it simply it feels like its designed for claw more and I'm fine with the increased weight. Will go into more detail in the vid tho
Hey boardzy, does mouse switches brake in over time? I think the clicks on mine is too mushy compared to the V2..Should I give me some time to brake in? Would that make it mushier?
i like this type of talk about product. gives great insights
boardzy what is your favorite mousepad for gaming?
I had the superlight 1 before and didn't upgrade hearing the side buttons are the same. I tried the death adder and viper 2 before but the shapes weren't for me. With the viper 3 it feels a lot more comfortable in the hand but I find the superlight's shape to be just slightly better on the bottom left side. Depending on if I try to give it more palm to the body of the mouse I can feel the bottom left side pushing a bit into the base of my thumb which I didn't have an issue with on the superlight. It's not a big deal since it doesn't feel terrible and I can just adjust my grip and have no issue, but that's probably with the longer back hump. I can't go back to the superlight now though since the side buttons feel awful and the viper has the ones that I like, which are razer's side buttons in general. I don't get a mushy feel or input, I get what I need and my thumb doesn't have to press in harsh. The superlight 1 has mushy side buttons that force my thumb to press against the frame of the mouse. I can feel a bit of my thumb on the edge of the viper v3's side buttons but I don't find discomfort with it and barely notice it or again, just a grip style change to adjust.
Came from an HSK, now on a lamzu a mini. Def would b big for me. Before having fun with shapes I jus bought the viper v2 for the specs tho. Good to see theyre still doin well, especially after whatever the hell the cobra was

@@boardzy I hoping to see that comparison, is the beast X mouse you have your favorite mouse compared to the Razor Viper v3? I just upgraded my Lamzu Atlantis to the Viper v3 and man this mouse feels huge and restrictive and I have huge hands. I'm going to order the Sora v2 next, I'm a claw/finger-tip hybrid.
I have been using the Viper V3 Pro for couple of days now and i freaking love it, I already have the viper v2 pro and the DeathAdder V3 pro and it like the both fused and created the the viper v3 pro this mouse is just too good tbh.
whats considered small hands? im 19-10cm. I tried the Viper ultimate and it seemed too flat for me. Currently using a DAV3 and really like it but the higher upm of the viper v3 has me interested
yo boardzy is the viper v3 pro a sweaty mouse because grip i need a mouse who is cold on my hands but same shape as viper or gpx
Are the original glides good or do you recommend changing them for corepads or something different?
i think that back hump of gpx and way the front tapers off makes it feel bigger to me than viper v3
What skates will you be using for it?
All companies should make a small, medium and large of their og mice. Its a no brainer.
Do they finally allow you to use over 1000hz wired? If not that's an enormous oversight and the main reason I will not upgrade
If I’m used to a death adder how does the size compare

I have smaller hands, and I aggressively claw. I thought the GPX was the largest size I could comfortably use, but I'm feeling pretty great on the Viper V3 Pro. If they made a mini version, I would instantly buy it, but it is still comfortable for smaller hands. Not dissimilar to the GPX in terms of size. I tried the black coating, and it wasn't much different from the white coating in terms of grip. AimAdapt says actually the black is grippier. I just went with the white because it looks clean and is less prone to fingerprints.
what is that eggshape mouse to the far right in the video
My thumb sometimes accidentally presses the side button when I’m shooting in Valorant. This is definitely something I have to get used to.
What’s the closest to a model 0 shape but a top tier mouse? Logitech shape isn’t comfortable tbh

Zowie mico. I’ve wanted one forever and got one finally, I’ll make a review of it soon
the skin on my palm gets caught under the mouse when i flick left or right cause of my grip (i have skinny big hands)
Compared to the DAV 3 pro, i like the aggressive button indents. It's lighter, which is also good. Not sure about the rest though. The inward slope on the right side is odd and tends to push my fingers into the mouse pad, which is annoying and causes drag. Furthermore, the hump is oddly shaped. It touches the right side of my palm , but not the center. They need to raise it slightly, widen the hump to fill the palm, and tone down the aggressive inward slope on the right side. Otherwise it's a really good mouse. The DAV3 is highly competitive, though, and more comfortable.
They won't make a mini version since it's extra manufacturing space in another factory that will probably not sell very well compared to the normal size, not worth it unless they do market research and find that the demand is actually there. otherwise it won't happen
I do kind of a pincer claw where my index finger hits the m1 near the scroll wheel so I hated the way the comfort grooves sloped. Objectively speaking though this mouse is really good.
Gpx superlight 2 vs viper v3 pro? I just got the gpx 2 for $125 including tax and shipping. I can still return it and get the v3 pro but is it worth the extra 45ish dollars?(including tax + shipping)? I currently use the model o wireless but am looking to upgrade.

Someone leaked on reddit that one of the pros used dav3 mini prototype so I think it might come soon...
My man saw the view count/engagement jump on the viper video and said MORE VIPER CONTENT!
is it worth the extra $60 when I can get v2 for $99?
TBH i have a v2, the only complaint I have is the size of the mouse. I can use it just fine but I do wish it was a little bit smaller. I also have a superlight and i prefer the v2 to the superlight. They both need a smaller version.
1:17 they did make a mini death adder.. I have mini DA and Viper. wish I could get the mini DA in wireless. Can only get the mini Viper wireless in a drop for $250+++++ which is ludacris. I have large hands but wrist and thumb damage so the mini's are easy using two fingers to hold and move them and light! I use my pinky for quick stops etc as it drags on the mouse pad. currently using an asus Keris as it's similar in size to a mini viper/DA and wireless but it's not quite there. Weight 78? grams viper mini weighs 61? sounds like a minute issue but this Asus Keris is hurting my busted up wrist and thumb. Likely going back to the wired viper mini and using an extension cable...damnit (LOVE the mini DA and viper, just need wireless)
Back button annoys me because my thumb comes down a slight angle and have large hands. If the buttons had more \ shape instead of [ shape would not be an issue. Installing the grips helped a lot.

I have it now, my lamzu fanatic feels so cheap after using this viper v3 pro that looks like a generic mouse but feels so premium from coating and all the buttons. As for the shape,for now it's uncomfortable for me because I used lamzu for 5months.
For my grip, the sensor was slightly too far back
1:08 - I bought a Hati-S Ace Wireless two years back cause Razer never made a small wireless mouse. I swear there's no way they're earning more from the Signature edition than if they just made something they can mass produce. (I hope.) And btw if you're someone with smaller hands or just want a smaller mouse, the Hati-S Ace Wireless was okay, but it doesn't feel like a top of the line mouse. Works fine for everything except for osu! where for some reason it gains the power of teleportation.
Can you show us how to measure our hands cuz you say numbers like 20x10 but I have no clue what you mean
which skates you used?
why no reviews for Hyperx Haste 2 MINI ?
my issue is i have no f'ing idea what i prefer lol. I went from maining the razer atheris for a while which is smaller than the orocchi or whatever to the basilisk v3 pro and am now lookiing for a lighter weight mouse lol but I dont know what style I prefer, Id finger tip grip the atheris and I kind of inbetween palm and claw the basilisk
My only complaint is the main 1&2 clicks feel a little too light, even had some accidental actuation on my right click since it's so spammable. Compared to my DAV3 the tensioning is slightly lighter. Maybe its just my copy, curious if anyone else had this issue?

The problem with mice like these imo is that if the body is similar to superlight then if your fingers are long enough and you wanna grip your smaller fingers will be rubbing into the pad unless you squeeze your hand which is incredibly unpleasant long term

I just purchased this mouse 2 weeks ago and honestly its responsive, I noticed i had a really nice grip to the mouse it doesn't slip with sweaty palms. really fast mouse. feels like good quality
Not a single sensor complaint? Well, it should be a little higher :)

Ay~ We have the same handsize! All I can say for certain is that the dav3 feels way too big. Even with a palmgrip the mouse feels kinda big. IDK about the viper though. Try using eloshapes and compare it to mice that used to fit your hand and gripstyle. Also even a 1mm difference can be felt between 2 mice. Especially if it's the hump so choose wisely. Also if a mouse fits your hands, it _feels_ lighter and causes way less wrist fatigue. So shape is more important than weight so do not hesitate to go for like a 80g mouse if it fits your hand.
