There is a reason the Razer DeathAdder series has remained mostly the same over the years. Its contoured design fits comfortably in the hand and offers enough functionality for seasoned gamers without going overboard. The DeathAdder Elite builds upon that...

For testing the Elite we have used games like Doom, Mafia III, GTA V, Streamline and Paladins; we did steer away from MMORPGs since those game types usually need mice with more programmable buttons. Since we were already familiar with the DeathAdder Chrom...

We spent a couple of weeks with the Razer DeathAdder Elite running everything from FPS, RPG, MMORPG and strategy games. Razer Synapse, a familiar tool in our box, helped to customize the side keys and let us program macros as needed. Gameplay was crisp an...
Since the DeathAdder is probably one of the most popular gaming mice on earth, I really don't need to say much about it. If you liked the older DeathAdders, you'll definitely like this one. If you haven't tried a DeathAdder, the DeathAdder Elite is a grea...

The only real criticism I can level at the DeathAdder Elite is that adding two extra buttons is a very mild upgrade for a yearly refresh. On the other hand, nothing about the mouse really needed to be fixed. It's still easy to grasp and performs well acro...

All the sensitivity, please.But is it worth more than the Deathadder Chroma, which ships with similar (if not identical) rubber grips, full RGB support through the same Synapse software as the Elite, and the same shape?Yes. How a mouse feels in the hand i...
There are not much to talk about with the Razer DeathAdder Elite in terms of looks or a “never before seen feature”. We've seen the design before and it cannot hover, or make you a sandwich. But Razer is focusing on the technology inside and in a real...
Yes. The DeathAdder presents a solid value in the mid-range mouse category, with a modest feature set and robust software support. If your gaming routine demands specialized functionality like a bunch of extra buttons or wireless connectivity, you'll have...
