Deathadder - recommandable or not?

by Phazor • 8 Jun 2012, 16:42 • Journals
Yo folks, my newly bought G400 is about to die due to some LAN-ROOMMATE throwing my shampoo into my hardware bag...
I thought about buying a Razer Deathadder now, the last mices Ive used:

-Mx 518
-G400
-Razer Diamondback

budget: ~45 €

Does it feel very different to the Logitech mices or is it also that comfortable and would you recommand me to try it or not?

Thanks in advance!

Nah, eventhough he's kinda responsible for the damage, he was a very nice guy to stay in a room with, additionaly he helped me with my drive back and with some food :).

Got a seperated bag too, but my bags were already packed and I was too lazy to open them in that moment due to some "weed-business".

Phazor 8 Jun 2012, 17:47
Any large differences in handling, does it feel much more different than the mx518 for example?

eRRoRR 8 Jun 2012, 17:48
It doesn't imo. Its not the same of course, but I needed like 1 day to get used to it

but afterall its a razer, and they tend to have a broken cable after a rather short time :s

my razer is still working quite well but the deathadder really doesnt' feel all that durable ( the top on it moves a bit etc. )

Deathadder is awesome. But if you ask logitech they will send you another g400 for free.
▼
overdrive 8 Jun 2012, 19:42
this. Send a mail to logitech support telling them your g400 died. they will ask you to send a pic of the serial of the mouse, a pic of the mouse with the cord cut and you will get a new one. Not sure if this would work for g400 since the mouse isnt one year old and the shop should give you a replacement (which you wont get if you throw shampoo over your mouse obviously :)

mamouth 8 Jun 2012, 20:28
Well I just told them my G5's cable was dead, send a picture of serial and the thing that proof you bought it. They sent me a G400 in less than 2 weeks. I didn't want that G5 !

Buy it from Amazon or another reliable shop -> test it -> like? keep it -> do not like? send it back and get your money back/buy another mouse.
