The new Razer Viper is a super-lightweight gaming mouse that’s lightning fast to boot

Need for speed

Meet the Razer Viper (£79), a new wired gaming mouse that promises to give players “absolute control.” Ominous totalitarian pledges aside, the Viper is an impressive piece of kit that combines a super-fast infrared optical mouse switch with a similarly powerful 5G optical sensor. What does all of that mean, exactly? Well, without getting too technical, the Viper will let you click really fast and with “deadly precision.” The tech will also help eliminate accidental clicks, which will be a godsend if you’re known for being a smidge trigger happy. The icing on the neon-infused cake is a super-lightweight, ambidextrous design (seriously, this thing weighs just 69 grams) that gives the Viper a bonus point for accessibility. Nice one, Razer boffins!

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
