WEBVTT

00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:08.760
this is the greatest gaming mouse in history if razor is to be believed

00:00:05.319 --> 00:00:12.280
spoiler alert they usually aren't the

00:00:08.760 --> 00:00:14.480
Viper mini signature edition this is the

00:00:12.280 --> 00:00:19.279
gaming mouse that Razer came up with with the design philosophy of price does

00:00:17.119 --> 00:00:25.160
not matter uh let's take out the outer box we get our beautiful little uh what

00:00:22.279 --> 00:00:31.400
I'm assuming is vegan leather box we got a little message from uh co-founder and

00:00:27.279 --> 00:00:34.320
CEO Min langang tan your gaming math

00:00:31.400 --> 00:00:39.160
oh I went the wrong way oh no wow look at me professional unboxer it's locked

00:00:36.879 --> 00:00:43.640
again wow that is a nice hinge if we're raing boxes this is this is up there we

00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:49.280
have the actual Mouse we will talk about this but

00:00:46.680 --> 00:00:54.920
first let's just finish the unboxing wow it's got this little custom uh foam

00:00:52.600 --> 00:01:00.160
piece it's almost felt like so it feels extra premium it's got a little name

00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:04.000
plate signature edition this is 92 of

00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:06.280
1337 if you don't know what that is uh

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:13.000
there's no helping you next we have all our documentation all the the features

00:01:09.759 --> 00:01:14.840
oh multilingual oh they hid the razor

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:20.000
stickers are they ashamed are they like that's too premium for stickers but here

00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:21.960
they are here I am chilling we have oh

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:25.680
nice little microfiber cloth interesting it's like more textured than I'm used to

00:01:23.720 --> 00:01:30.520
microfiber like it almost is reminiscent of a leather look we have alcohol prep

00:01:28.479 --> 00:01:35.320
pad and then we have some grip tape which I actually have learned to

00:01:32.479 --> 00:01:40.640
appreciate on honeycomb mice we will talk about the body more in a bit but

00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:43.840
I'm not a huge fan of like touching you

00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:45.439
know this weird shape uh it feels

00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:49.840
inconsistent on my hand it's definitely a preference thing I know a lot of people don't really care but I like

00:01:48.119 --> 00:01:56.360
putting the grip tape on so it kind of closes it off and gives the impression

00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:58.159
of a close- bodied Mouse oh oh the folio

00:01:56.360 --> 00:02:02.640
goes further and this is something that's very cool you get a choice of

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:08.440
PTFE Mouse feet or glass Mouse feets and they are Gorilla Glass 3 so they're very

00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:11.440
very durable I've never personally used

00:02:08.440 --> 00:02:12.640
glass you know skates on a mouse uh but

00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:19.239
I've heard it's supposed to be theoretically a smoother experience back

00:02:14.920 --> 00:02:21.480
to the box we have our USB type-c cable

00:02:19.239 --> 00:02:24.480
that is braided Razer does do a great job with their cabling on both their

00:02:23.239 --> 00:02:30.440
wired mice and you know their accessories they always feel premium they've paid for the right to use a

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:34.239
different color than the USB standard the green always a nice little touch

00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:38.879
even on the type- C side a lot of devices these days are coming with type-

00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:44.200
C to type- C cables I think for phones that makes a lot of sense but I prefer

00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:45.720
type a to c on a PC accessory mostly

00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:50.280
because I have a lot more type A ports on my computer and I'm someone that even

00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:54.040
though I know using a hub for your dungle for your mouse and keyboard

00:02:51.920 --> 00:02:58.360
doesn't theoretically make a difference I just don't believe it I feel like

00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:03.640
somewhere sometime I'm going to be trying to click ahead and there's just going to be some handshake somewhere

00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:07.360
that happens that slows it down by .1 millisecond and you know that's going to

00:03:05.519 --> 00:03:11.760
be the difference not my skill level I appreciate having type a to c for my

00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:15.519
mice still this mouse actually comes with a really cool little accessory

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:21.920
although it's really poorly branded and so maybe they're

00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:24.959
just tricking me this is the hyper

00:03:21.920 --> 00:03:26.959
pooling wireless dongle so they sell

00:03:24.959 --> 00:03:30.599
this as a separate accessory this is the one that's specifically made for this

00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:35.280
mouse and it's supposed to be up to 4,000 Hertz pulling rate which is pretty

00:03:33.959 --> 00:03:40.120
neat that's something that Razer has been pushing for a bit you know the 8K

00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:44.159
wired mice uh but they now sell this as a separate device the 4K one that works

00:03:42.519 --> 00:03:49.799
with I think three of their more modern mice but this one as it is their premium

00:03:47.239 --> 00:03:52.519
prices No Object Mouse they include it with this one one thing that's important

00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:56.280
to note is that this is made specifically with this mouse in mind it

00:03:54.720 --> 00:04:00.040
can't be unpaired and paired to another mouse and you can't use the separate

00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:03.840
version on this I'd imagine razor has you know a replacement program that you

00:04:01.760 --> 00:04:09.159
can do cuz that would suck if they don't Logitech does

00:04:05.799 --> 00:04:12.640
so that's it for the unboxing part Let's

00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:15.959
do an exploration of the mouse first

00:04:12.640 --> 00:04:17.840
impression is wow this is a light Mouse

00:04:15.959 --> 00:04:21.799
that's due primarily to three things you know it's a smaller Mouse it's a mini uh

00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:26.320
it has the honeycomb shape but what's kind of unique to this mouse is its

00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:31.600
magnesium alloy body most mice you know there's some formula of proprietary

00:04:28.479 --> 00:04:32.960
Plastics or rubber uh this is magnesium

00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:37.680
alloy that's the stuff they make you know premium premium laptops out of

00:04:35.479 --> 00:04:42.280
magnesium alloy is light it's premium feeling and it's durable you know to

00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:48.240
scratches and stuff but it's actually one of the more corrosive Alloys that

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:51.680
exists it's usually corroded by you know the wrong type of screws but I don't

00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:55.560
know if there's that many devices that are magnesium alloy that are you know in

00:04:53.680 --> 00:05:01.520
constant contact with my disgusting uh oily hands it remains to

00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:06.320
be seen this is a very new product if you know finger grease is going to mess

00:05:03.320 --> 00:05:08.280
this bad boy up but as it is it looks

00:05:06.320 --> 00:05:13.120
stunning let's just why did I add a sound it has its

00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:15.720
own sound my sounds better though I don't know if you can see but there's a

00:05:14.520 --> 00:05:20.360
difference in texture between the magnesium alloy sides and top and the

00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:23.400
plastic bottom that's a compromise that makes a lot of sense it's probably a

00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:28.360
cost-saving measure plastic still very light but the structural rigidity of the

00:05:26.039 --> 00:05:33.280
magnesium alloy is quite impressive it's thin uh and you know the honeycomb shape

00:05:30.960 --> 00:05:39.160
that's a lot of a lot of comb for your honey baby and it it feels solid like

00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:44.479
I've I've held Clos bodied mice that have felt much less rigid this is quite

00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:48.800
impressive it comes with switches that are rated for 90 million clicks which is

00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:52.000
very high often like Logitech mice they've come with 20 million I've see 50

00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:55.800
million very commonly they're not hot swappable like the Rog ones are which is

00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:00.039
fine that's not a super common feature even though this is a Minnie Mouse it

00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:05.039
doesn't feel tiny in the hands I've held some that with my hyber grip just feel

00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:09.120
off and this my palm doesn't immediately want to land on it but it's not hard to

00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:15.919
imagine just adjusting my grip a tiny bit so for claw this is totally a good

00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:17.520
Mouse for hybrid it's there for Palm it

00:06:15.919 --> 00:06:22.000
fits pretty comfortably even palm palm gripped this is uh a wellth thought out

00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:27.800
Mouse it's slightly smaller than a G Pro X feels like it was designed with a hand

00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:29.759
in mind not just theoretical weight uh

00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:36.080
elimination speaking of weight this thing is 49 G according to Razer let's

00:06:33.479 --> 00:06:40.160
find out 50 g that's close enough to 49 G for me this mouse is designed with

00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:44.199
competitive Shooters in mind both the weight reduction but also the amount of

00:06:42.479 --> 00:06:48.520
buttons on it it has the two primary buttons the scroll wheel with the click

00:06:45.960 --> 00:06:53.160
and two side buttons my first impression is that they're quite thoughtfully

00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:58.639
placed my thumb rests naturally on them uh and it's pretty easy to press both I

00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:00.639
feel like the buttons aren't separated

00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:04.759
enough from the body that that I would quite easily lose track of which button

00:07:03.039 --> 00:07:08.319
I'm pressing and you know if my thumb's resting on the button or Not In the Heat

00:07:06.400 --> 00:07:11.639
of a moment it's not a bad placement but I wish the buttons were just slightly

00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:17.319
more pronounced on the bottom we have the pre-installed skates uh we have our

00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:20.039
power and DPI button I don't love that

00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:23.879
it's a power hold I would prefer that it was a toggle again weight reduction but

00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:28.879
in the center they're hiding their focus Pro 30k optical sensor Razer touts three

00:07:27.080 --> 00:07:33.879
big features with the sensor no asymmetric cut off uh you can customize

00:07:31.440 --> 00:07:38.400
at what distance uh it's doing the liftoff sensor smart tracking which

00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:41.680
seems a little weird to me it keeps track of what material it's on and

00:07:39.960 --> 00:07:46.159
changes some settings so that it tracks better on different settings and then

00:07:43.400 --> 00:07:51.159
motion sync which I think is just uh razor gobl where they apparently tune

00:07:49.440 --> 00:07:55.479
the rate at which they're sending signal to the computer so that the computer can

00:07:53.319 --> 00:08:01.159
best accept it and you know there's uh there's fewer moments of input

00:07:58.280 --> 00:08:06.639
lag that that all being said on paper this mouse sounds absolutely fantastic I

00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:10.479
can't wait to plug it in and test it out after I tell you about our sponsor War

00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:14.199
Thunder War Thunder is a very comprehensive vehicle combat game it's

00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:18.520
free to play with crossplay across a variety of platforms there are over

00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:22.919
2,000 historically accurate aircrafts ships and planes to Pilot ranging from

00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:26.639
1920s all the way to today every vehicle is modeled down to individual components

00:08:24.840 --> 00:08:30.319

health bar with war thund damage x-ray system check the link below and start

00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:36.640
playing for free you'll also receive premium Vehicles boosters and more

00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:42.120
pairing the mouse was quite easy I plugged in the dongle held the power button and a green LED turned on to

00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:48.640
indicate that the mouse was paired and uh Bob's your uncle you're gone let's

00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:50.279
open up Razer synapse Razer cortex why

00:08:48.640 --> 00:08:54.360
why do you have so many apps Razer I don't even want one and also change the

00:08:52.839 --> 00:08:57.880
naming scheme but how am I supposed to know which one is you know the control

00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:01.000
synapse cortex like yeah they're all Brains it's cool like for an app I get

00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:06.360
it it but moving around the pre-installed PTF

00:09:04.079 --> 00:09:09.399
skates are very smooth what I would do is I would keep these on until they wore

00:09:07.760 --> 00:09:13.560
out and then you know switch them out after no need to waste perfectly good

00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:17.480
skates having it plugged in brings my attention to the fact that there is no

00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:21.200
RGB I'm totally okay with that I don't want any of my battery life wasted but

00:09:19.640 --> 00:09:25.480
that's a preference thing speaking of battery they say that this thing can do

00:09:22.959 --> 00:09:28.880
60 hours of battery depending on your polling rate so I'm guessing that's if

00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:34.440
you set it to 125 you're going to get the full once we're finally P all the we

00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:38.040
get our customization screens so you can customize what each button does that's

00:09:35.959 --> 00:09:41.680
neat uh you can save different profiles you can change what the indicator LED

00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:45.360
does so connection status battery status basically it's your battery indicator uh

00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:51.040
and you can turn that off have it be just you know is your mouse connected I don't see any reason for that or it's

00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:54.839
off but it'll display a blinking red when your mouse needs charging I think

00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:58.760
that's a nice little control feature we have control of our sensitivity I'm an

00:09:56.480 --> 00:10:03.680
800 DPI guy you can change even the number of stages that's actually neat I

00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:05.959
usually with my mice I'll set two dpis

00:10:03.680 --> 00:10:09.079
just so if I need it for a specific game some games have weird sensitivity

00:10:07.560 --> 00:10:12.920
ratings so I'll have like an alternate one for a game that'll just go back to

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:17.920
800 if I'm playing regular competitive shooter and then here confirmation that

00:10:14.560 --> 00:10:22.120
this dungle is 4K right here we can go

00:10:17.920 --> 00:10:25.480
up to 4,000 KZ polling rate or for sorry

00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:27.440
it's not Kilz that would be 4 million I

00:10:25.480 --> 00:10:30.240
apologize previous David misspoke here's where you can control your smart

00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:35.920
tracking set a single cut off point for your preferred distance regardless of the surface placed on I am not going to

00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:39.320
change that the asymmetric cut off just means that you can change the distance

00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:41.880
from liftoff and Landing the defaults are going to be fine neat that you can

00:10:40.800 --> 00:10:47.920
change it and then you have your wireless power saving so you can set the the length of time before it goes to

00:10:46.040 --> 00:10:51.800
sleep there's also the low power mode which you can set a percentage battery

00:10:49.519 --> 00:10:55.480
it'll go but if I'm using the 2,000 or the 4,000 HZ pulling rate that is not

00:10:53.800 --> 00:10:59.720
available excellent we're going to pop into some aim lab I'm going to see if I

00:10:57.480 --> 00:11:04.200
can shoot these C4s out of the air with this uh little beast first impression

00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:07.399
the tracking is perfect this is not the first Mouse to use that sensor the

00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:10.600
smoothest no these skates are are quite good this is a very smooth experience

00:11:09.079 --> 00:11:15.480
immediately yeah my hand found its comfortable position I'm finding that I

00:11:13.040 --> 00:11:20.680
my limitations are my own not this mouse this is a very good experience uh if I

00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:24.720
squeezed out of anger I'd be good if I slammed out of anger I feel like it's

00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:28.360
it's feeling pretty Rock Solid but I'm very curious about the glass gate so

00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:32.839
let's switch those out and uh see if I can tell the difference this feels like

00:11:29.880 --> 00:11:36.360
such a shame to peel off these feet it doesn't feel like I'd be able to reuse

00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:40.320
them like my nails kind of going into them oh yeah they're dead that's real

00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:45.000
smooth I can't tell if that's because I'm hyper aware of is is this a smoother

00:11:43.040 --> 00:11:49.360
experience or if it's actually smoother but that feels very good very premium

00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:53.920
even if I press harder it's it's moving along pretty well I almost feel like I'm

00:11:50.920 --> 00:11:56.120
hyper aware of the flaws in this

00:11:53.920 --> 00:12:01.040
well-loved desk pad it was perfect at launch LTT sore.com I don't often like

00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:05.920
razor products so I got to give credit where credit is due this feels very nice

00:12:03.800 --> 00:12:10.800
this feels very premium not luxury it's still a gaming product but I don't

00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:14.199
perceive any specific weak points whereas normally when I pick up like a

00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:18.199
Viper ultimate there's the grip on the side that plastic feels cheap or you

00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:24.320
know there's like a little squeeze somewhere this on first in inspection

00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:28.160
this is a pretty Flawless product QC remains to be seen longevity remains to

00:12:25.800 --> 00:12:32.279
be seen those concerns aside this has a 3-year warranty which which is pretty

00:12:29.680 --> 00:12:39.440
good but as far as unboxings go this razor Mouse is really impressive and it

00:12:34.880 --> 00:12:39.440
better be this thing cost

00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:45.399
$280 that ain't cheap at that price you

00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:51.199
could buy two G Pro X super lights and to be fair they can justify the price by

00:12:48.079 --> 00:12:53.600
you know 4K dongle magnesium alloy even

00:12:51.199 --> 00:13:00.639
lighter than a G Pro X it feels looks great it it plays great but $280 for a

00:12:57.639 --> 00:13:01.880
mouse that is is kind of a hard pill to

00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:05.600
swallow yeah there's you know some Starlight mice that are getting close to

00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:09.440
that but they're all like special editions beautiful mice I think that if

00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:14.440
Razer wants to justify that price they might have to bring some of their customization features from some of

00:13:12.160 --> 00:13:19.600
their other mice and let you personalize this mouse or make some you know

00:13:16.760 --> 00:13:25.040
signature signature editions but all in all I can't say that it's not worth the

00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:29.880
$280 I know it's expensive I know that's a really premium price and trust me I

00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:34.760
probably can't afford it myself but this mouse feels like $280 and I'm beyond

00:13:32.839 --> 00:13:38.720
impressed and totally taken back that Razer has managed to make a product that

00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:41.880
I really want thank you so much for watching ShortCircuit if you like

00:13:40.199 --> 00:13:47.800
unique mice why not check out my unboxing of the arrow one where the

00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:47.800
sensor is at the top
