today we'll be unboxing the Razer Death Adder black addic addiction maybe I'm
addicted to mice no probably not we're
going to be unboxing the Razer Death Adder Black Edition which is probably
very difficult for you guys to read the box of so I'll read it for you it
features a true ergonomic right-handed design 3500 DPI infrared sensor many
people prefer the infrared sensors to the laser sensors uh I personally don't
but that's that's definitely a selling point and 1,00 HZ Ultra pulling which is
the maximum supported by the USB interface there's a new sensor familiar
form factor okay so the Old Death Adder was uh released way way back when and
what they've pretty much done here is they've upgraded the look upgraded the sensor there is a non-black Edition
featuring The 3500 uh or the 3.5g infrared sensor but
this is not it okay this is pretty much everything we said before four times
more Precision than a standard 800 DPI Mouse cool on the back we see a bunch of
stuff that we can talk about once we actually open up the product and finally
there's a message from Razor guy sweet okay so this is part of their essential
tier of products so what that means is it's a more of a value product more what
you need to get fragging done rather than featuring a bunch of Frills and
gimmicks and extra accessories personally I like Frills and
gimmicks but I also like inexpensive products so I'm kind of torn but which
one I prefer razor packaging always excellent so so it's all black inside to
go with the black edition theme of this particular product going to go ahead
take that off take that off so inside here we're going to probably find the
usual Spiel inside so congratulations
there's no turning back you own Razer now Go to cult. razerzone.com and all
that good stuff you got a quick start guide you got a master guide you got a
product catalog showing you a bunch of other Razor stuff that you'll probably
also like cuz you bought this after all
and finally you've got some razor stickers which I used to think were UV
but it turns out they are not which is disappointing but not that big of a deal
I suppose in the big picture so I'm going to go ahead take off this plastic
right here where hopefully I'm not going to reflect it and show the cameraman who
is helping me today so let's have a look at the ACT let's start here so we've got
a goldplated connector gold you know here's something
I should talk about gold is not actually the best conductor see some people
believe that you use gold on connectors because it's the best conductor actually
silver is a better conductor than gold the reason we use gold is because it's
soft and malleable so even when you insert it and unplug it from your
computer a lot of times it's still going to make good contact because it's so
soft it'll just reform itself according
to whatever is is brushing up against it so you have a nice good contact surface
area on there okay you've got a nice braided cable here so it's not going to
snag on stuff whenever you're sliding the mouse across your table I mean it's
not a wireless mouse so you do have to take that into account the Death Adder
is most optimal for a palm type grip so
a palm type grip means you're making contact with the entire Mouse as you lay
your hand down on it it means that you operate the buttons using pretty much
your whole finger not just the fingertip like you would with a fingertip or a
claw grip okay the Death Adder does not
have any buttons on the side although it does have like a a grippy durable sweat
proofy feeling finish on this side this is more of a traditional plastic and
then over on the other side we find more grippiness so that means that your
fingers that are on the side to hold and control the mouse are going to have an
easy time gripping it even if you have to lift it off of your mousing surface
we have forward and back buttons on the side although you could set those to
other functionality should you so desire your standard left and right click your
mouse scroll wheel as well as a mouse click on the bottom of the mouse you
find your model number product number rating which is the voltage that it
takes and you find a little bit of information about your sensor so you got
your 3.5g infrared sensor Precision 3500
DPI you've also got some slippy pads
which are one two three so they're little ones but really that doesn't make
that much of a difference in terms of either friction or in terms of
durability so I wouldn't worry too much about that one way or the
other and I think that's pretty much all I have to say about the Death Adder
