When looking at a Razer product very high expectations tend to be thrown up. This remains the case with the Razer Mamba. Claiming to be the fastest mouse in the world, both wired and wireless this mouse has a lot to live up to.

Very attractive; Sleek curves that fit in the palm of your hand; Great battery life; Wired and wireless connections; Excellent tracking; Docking station; Conveniently placed DPI buttons; Smooth scroll wheel

Hefty price tag

Even semicompetitive PC gamers can get away with a less expensive mouse, but for the most dedicated, the Razer Mamba provides unmatched precision whether it's connected directly to your PC or set free in wireless mode.

Wired and wireless usage modes; high polling rate ensures seamless wireless connection, even at high resolutions; onboard memory lets you take your profiles and macros on the road.

Most expensive gaming mouse; no on-the-fly macro recording; clunky USB cable a hassle to plug into the mouse.

The gaming-grade peripheral breaks the barrier of 5,000 dpi, leaving the wiring and lag behind. See how it fared during our test.

Bottom Line: If you’ve got the cash to splash I would fully recommend the Razer Mamba. However, for the lot of us with not-so-deep pockets, there are many other good alternatives.

Razer delivers on the performance and it is pleasing to feel the response time wirelessly with absolutely no lag. Being on the cutting edge, however, does come at a price of a $130.

Excellent tracking and superb surface calibration; Sensitivity may be configured in specific stages (1-5); No lag on wireless operation; Pleasing form factor and well weighted.

Somewhat short battery life for a gaming mouse; Driver issues with system coming out of sleep mode.

While the Razer Mamba is not going to be perfect for all people and all scenarios, overall it is a very good mouse. The combination of years of research and refinement by Razer’s engineers really has created one very comfortable mouse.

The Mamba 4G is hands down the best wireless mouse we've ever used for gaming. If you hate cables, this is what to get

As a rule of thumb, we hate (nay, despise) giving credit to marketing teams, but 'the world's most advanced gaming mouse' is honestly not a bad way of describing the Mamba. With its 16,000 DPI sensor, full button customisation, deep RGB lighting options, wireless connectivity and Adjustable Click...

Along the the Mamba TE and the DeathAdder (Chroma), the Mamba (2015 Edition) is one of the most advanced gaming mice in the world. This device works with a laser sensor, a max speed of 210 IPS, acceleration of 50G, and an industry-leading 16,000 DPI sensor under the hood.

The Mamba's shape and materials feel great in the hand, but wireless comes at a high cost: in dollars, weight, and frequent charging.
