Title: All-round, an excellent – and very subtle – wireless gaming mouse.
Review: I recently purchased myself a shiny new gaming laptop so, as is customary when I get myself a new slab of hardware, I decided to get myself a whole load of new gear to go with it, including a new mouse. Having used a wired one for a while now, I wanted a wireless one this time around – so I narrowed it down to this, the Razer Orochi v2 after reading about its epic battery life and features. I’ve been using it for a few days now, so let’s get cracking with some blurb about how it’s resonating with me so far…>>>WHAT’S IN THE BOX?In the nice (and, yay, mostly cardboard) retail packaging, you’ll find the mouse itself, a single AA battery, some instructions and some stickers. Because we all need stickers.>>>FIRST IMPRESSIONS?When I popped it out of its box, the first thing that struck me about the Orochi v2 was how unbelievably light it was. Seriously, it’s probably about the same weight as a packet of salt’n’vinegar crisps. The second thing that struck me was that I wasn’t immediately enamoured with the material that the mouse is made from; although it feels well-constructed, the plastic isn’t very premium-feeling – and I’m assuming that this material was chosen for its featherlight weight rather than its aesthetic appeal. Rather thankfully however, the mouse is very comfortable to hold, and I find that my fingers and thumb reach all of the buttons nicely.Design-wise, it’s very subtle – there’s very little about this mouse that gives any clue that it’s a £70 gaming mouse, rather unlike many of it’s RGB-adorned brethren – and this is something that I find very appealing, so brownie points go to Razer for this.>>>CONNECTIVIY & SETUPAn interesting thing about this squeaker is that there are two ways to connect it to your computer; you can use the supplied USB receiver (found inside the mouse) or you can connect it via Bluetooth – and this duality in connection is something I’ve never seen on a mouse before.You’re best off connecting it via USB for the first time to get it set up, as once you pop the USB receiver into your computer, the Razer Cortex/Synapse installer runs automatically and is very straightforward to install and get things up and running. More on the software in a bit.>>>CLICKS AND MOVEMENTAll of the buttons on the mouse have very positive-feeling microswitches, with the exception of the scroll-wheel, which feels a little less positive – but it feels nice and clicky nonetheless. The left-click on my Orochi v2 is pretty loud and took a little while to get used to as my previous mouse was pretty quiet, but it’s by no means a deal breaker.I’ve done some testing to see if I can detect any difference between the mouse when it’s connected via USB and Bluetooth, and I have to say that there is indeed a bit of a difference. When connected via USB, the movement is precise and smooth, but when connected via Bluetooth, things move slightly less smoothly, but this might be down to the fact that I’ve got a 165Hz screen and it might look less obvious on screens with a lower refresh rate. In any case, you can easily switch between both of them, but it would definitely be advantageous to use the USB connection when playing games in which precision is required.Taking a look at the underside of the mouse, you’ll see that it has two large (somewhat oversized!) gliding pads at its front and rear, and an additional ring of the same gliding material around its optical sensor – which means that it moves incredibly smoothly; possibly more smoothly than any mouse I’ve ever used. I’m using it on my Steelseries QcK polycarbonate pad and the pointer moves in a silky-smooth manner even when moving the mouse incredibly slowly. When gaming, this translates to equally silky-smooth movement.It also feels very precise and there are options to fully customise the DPI settings in the software, which is up next…>>>SOFTWAREAs mentioned before, when you plug the Orochi v2’s USB receiver into your computer, it will automatically launch the Razer software installer. This installs two separate apps; ‘Razer Cortex’ and ‘Razer Synapse’. ‘Razer Cortex’ is a multi-function app which has a game boosting mode that does some cool things with optimisation, as it kills unimportant tasks to free up memory and system resources when you launch a game, can show your FPS count, has a system optimisation function, offers on games and a rewards system. I’ve not explored much of it yet, but it looks very good.‘Razer Synapse’ is the app that controls the Orochi v2’s functions however, as you can use it to edit the function of the mouse’s buttons and set them to individual keys, media launchers and all sorts of stuff, which is pretty cool. Importantly, it allows you to adjust the DPI settings from a lowly 100DPI (very slow) to 18000DPI (impossibly fast), and allows you to set up to five different DPI settings which can be changed quickly by pressing the button on the top of the mouse. You can also save separate profiles if you want to assign game-specific settings to your buttons, and there are other options in there that allow you to control various other gadgets from the software, such as Philips Hue lighting, and there’s Amazon Alexa options and all sorts of other things.All in all, the software is excellent and rather more fully-featured than I expected – so it’s definitely an excellent bonus on top of a great piece of hardware.>>>BATTERY LIFEI’m writing this bit a couple of months after buying this mouse, and so far I have to say that its battery life has been fantastic; but I was marred by a collection of out-of-date AA batteries (which have now been chucked!) that at least allowed me to see if there was any difference in battery life when connected via USB versus connecting via Bluetooth, and… Well, there’s a huge difference! It would seem that the battery life when connecting via USB is considerably shorter than it is when connecting via Bluetooth; I can’t quantify this with figures as I wasn’t timing it, but I would say that you get roughly a third extra period of battery life when connecting via Bluetooth. This is, of course, served with the caveat that the movement is more precise and smooth when connecting via USB, but if you’re all about preserving battery life, I’d recommend connecting via Bluetooth when you’re doing everything other than gaming.>>>CONCLUSIONThe Razer Orochi v2 is an excellent all-rounder of a mouse, which offers more connectivity and customisation options than most, is very comfortable and precise to use, and comes with an excellent bundle of software. It’s definitely a winner.

Title: A seriously special mouse
Review: I basically think the G305 is the greatest mouse of all time so I’ve been sat here waiting for a lightweight version for a long time. When I first saw the Orochi V2 I had high hopes. I’ve waited a while to make sure any kinks are knocked out, it was worth the wait.I did have a problem with the first one in the fact it wobbled from side to side, that was the black model so I tried the white and it’s perfectly flat.The mouse comes with a AAA lithium battery which is a great touch, it keeps the weight down. You can choose between AA and AAA in the mouse which is great. I put the AAA in a converter and in the AA spot for better weight distribution. It feels great.I connected the mouse and it got picked up by synapse straight away, the firmware updated automatically. I calibrated the surface as well so it’s running tip top.The stock skates are excellent, really slippy, had no problem with my aim in apex or cod.In the hand it feels fantastic, it’s smaller than the g305 but fills my hand well. There’s a slight groove to the left of the mouse for the thumb and it feels really comfortable.The clicks are snappy, not oo spongey.Overall this is probably going to be my new main, until a lightweight g305 comes out anyway!

Title: Lighweight And Slick
Review: Been using this mouse for about 8-9 months now, and it’s been a real winner, especially if you’re into the claw grip.Gotta be straight, it’s a bit small. If you’ve got big hands, might not be your best bet. But for claw grippers, it’s comfy and light – like it’s made for it. Cool thing is, it plays nice with both big and small batteries. Flexibility is always a plus, and this mouse gets it.You can mess around with the front panel to make it look how you want. Nice little touch for personalizing your setup.No problems from day one. Clicks are sharp, and it’s fast. No drama, just plug and play.Price is sweet. Doesn’t break the bank, and it’s holding its own against pricier mice.If you’re into claw grip and don’t wanna spend big bucks, this mouse is solid. I’ve had a smooth ride with it, and I’d recommend it if you’re on a budget and want something reliable.Let me drop a quick note on the battery life of this mouse – it’s impressive. In the 8-9 months I’ve had it, I’ve only had to change the batteries twice.

Title: Finally a Razer mouse I can use on Mac!
Review: As a PC gamer you take decent Mice for granted. But as soon as you step into the world of Mac, its a issue. Its mainly an issue on Mac M1 which for hardware contraints only has 2 USB-C Ports. One port for monitor and the other for a charger leaves nothing for wired mouse (or wireless adapter). The Logi Anywhere 3 should be perfect, but it lag issues (I’m sure firmware will sort it eventually). The Magic Mouse 2 is fine, just not pleasant to use. So Razer Orochi, works well on Mac OS, has the Razer build quality. It has a switch between Wireless (whish is prefered when gaming) and Blutooth.I personally think that not having a rechargable battery is a plus, it means it has longer life than if it had a built in battery.I didn’t think that this mouse would work well on Mac as well as it does and replace my Razer Viper Ultimate on PC. I think I might sell my Viper Ultimate as nice as it is, the Orochi feels as nice to use, I prefer the smaller size, bettery battery life I only forego the RGB lighting.

Review: Me ha sorprendido mucho este ratón. Incluso no siendo fan de la marca Razer tengo que reconocer que el ratón es muy, muy preciso y robusto.Es bastante cómodo. No molesta la muñeca ni la mano tras horas y horas de uso. Llevo unos meses con él y perfecto.Puede utilizarse 1 pila AA para añadir duración o una AAA si se quiere quitar unos cuantos gramos de peso para gaming, aunque aguante un poco menos la batería.Lo uso diariamente para trabajar por bluetooth y en el sobremesa para jugar. El cambio se hace con un switch en 1 segundo.Por bluetooth puede apreciarse input lag, como con todos los dispositivos de este tipo, pero con el dongle va perfecto.Las pilas que uso (Eneloop AA de 1900mah) me duran más de 1 mes en modo 1 ms.Hay un problema con el gestor de energía del adaptador bluetooth de Windows, Cuando te llevas 1 minuto sin usarlo desactiva el ratón y no vuelve a encender cuando se mueve o se hace click. No es culpa del ratón, es de Windows.Si te sucede esto recomiendo 2 cosas:-Girar el ratón en tu mano, para que quede el sensor mirando hacia arriba y pulsar todos los botones (si se hace con el sensor en la alfombrilla no funciona). No sé por qué, pero casi siempre esto arregla el problema.-Bloquear el equipo (botón windows + L) y acceder de nuevo. Al bloquear se reactiva el 100% de las vecesMuy recomendado

Review: Purchased it in January 2022 and it has been working well until now. The mouse has a tendency to reconnect constantly, disrupting the flow of my gaming sessions. Software is up to date. USB is fine and not moving. Additionally, I’ve noticed occasional lag when clicking, which can be frustrating during crucial moments. On the bright side, I really appreciate its ergonomic shape, which suits my small hands perfectly. However, the search for a better replacement is on my agenda, hoping to find a device that combines comfort with reliable performance soon.

Review: Halli hallo,Nach nun über einem Jahr in welchem ich diese Maus besitze und regelmäßig für alles möglich benutze, möchte ich nun auch einmal meinen Senf dazu abgeben.Schlicht und ergreifend, sehr gut.Es gibt nichts an dieser Maus was ich bemängeln könnte.Beginnen wir bei dem offensichtlichstem: Der Form.Wer Freund von kleineren Mäusen ist, so wie ich, wird diese Maus lieben.Sie ist klein, leicht und gut zu bedienen. Auch wenn sie wie eine Standard Maus ausschaut ist sie dennoch Ergonomisch geformt. Zu keinem Zeitpunkt hatte ich das Gefühl die Maus aus der Hand zu verlieren oder dass sie unpassend verrutscht oder sich sonst wie Selbstständig macht.Sie erinnert mich sehr an meine vorherige Lieblings Maus welche leider seit vielen Jahren nicht mehr Produziert wird, die Logitech G303 Daedalus Apex. Sie ist zwar nicht Identisch, aber kommt schon ziemlich nah heran. Wesentlich näher als alle anderen Logitech Mäuse die behaupten dass sie sehr ähnlich seien.Die Technik:-Die Maus ist fast ausschließlich aus Kunststoff gebaut, welcher sich jedoch recht Stabil und oftmals, aber nicht immer Hochwertig anfühlt. Auch die Aufliege Flächen sind aus Kunststoff gefertigt, was im ersten Moment billig klingt aber in der Praxis durchaus sehr gut funktioniert und ich nur bemerke wenn ich die Flächen hin und wieder reinige.-Die Maus besitzt an der linken Seite 2 Zusatztasten die, via der Razer Software, frei belegt werden können. Andernfalls haben diese eine Standardeinstellung einprogrammiert bekommen, die ich ehrlicherweise bis heute nicht umgestellt habe weil diese schlicht sehr Praktisch ist.-Der Sensor: welcher Sensor verbaut ist könnte ihr selbst in der Beschreibung lesen. Im Endeffekt ist es wie bei allem nur Augenwischerei.Die wahre Frage ist doch: Wie verhält sich der Sensor in der Praxis?Die Antwort schlicht und ergreifend. Exakt so wie ich es erwarte und brauche. Was nicht heißen soll dass ich nach meinen Ansprüchen gehe, sondern viel mehr dass ich noch keine Situation erlebt habe in denen er versagt hat. Logitech Mäuse hatten ja schon öfters Probleme mit Sensoren, dass sie hin und wieder kleinere Aussetzer haben oder mit bestimmten Oberflächen einfach nicht klar kommen.Die Orochi V2 hat sowas meiner Meinung nach nicht. Ich benutze sie fast ausschließlich auf einer Polierten und Beschichteten Holzoberfläche, auf dieser haben selbst meine beiden ASUS ROG Gladius 2 Mäuse Probleme. Die Orochi V2 gar nicht. Keine Aussetzer, keine ungewollten Mausbewegungen. Absolute Präzision.-Wie bei vielen Mäusen kann man natürlich auch die DPI Zahl einstellen. Allerdings soweit ich weiß nur in Verbindung mit der Razer eigenen Software, was ich jetzt nicht so klasse finde. Ein kleiner Interner Speicher wäre schön gewesen mit der Zusätzlichen Option für die Software und nicht die Notwendigkeit.Die DPI Einstellungen für Bluetooth und 2,4GHz Verbindung via mitgelieferten Dongle sind getrennt voneinander. D.h. man kann und muss für beide Verbindungsarten Separate Einstellungen vornehmen.- Der 2,4GHz Dongle hat ganz nebenbei erwähnt, praktischerweise einen vorgesehenen Platz im Gehäuse der Maus wo er fest drin sitzt und nicht beschädigt werden kann oder sinnlos rumfliegt. Super mitgedacht.-Das Gehäuse der Maus lässt sich Extrem einfach öffnen. Leichter als ich es jemals woanders gesehen habe. Zumindest der obere Teil der Maus wo Dongle verstaut ist, die Batterien/Akkus eingesetzt werden, und leichtere Reinigungen durchgeführt werden können. Der Deckel ist lediglich durch mehrere kleine aber durchaus für ihre Größe Starke Magnete befestigt. Es wackelt nichts, es klappert nichts. Es wird kein Werkzeug benötigt. Wirklich Super gelöst und super mitgedacht.Um die Maus vollständig öffnen zu können, um z.b. die Taster auszutauschen wird jedoch ein Inbus Schlüssel benötigt.-Die Maus selbst wiegt nicht sonderlich viel. Ein großer Teil des Gewichts kommt durch die Batterien/Akkus. Was vollkommen OK ist. Ich brauche keine Schweren Mäuse.-Die Orochi V2 kann durch entweder einer AAA Batterie(Akku oder einer AA Batterie/Akku betrieben werden, dementsprechend variieren natürlich auch die Laufzeiten der Maus. Und, man sollte natürlich nicht vergessen dass Bluetooth weniger Leistung als 2,4GHz benötigt. Aber selbst mit einem AAA Akku kann ich mich über die Laufzeit der Orochi V2 absolute nicht beschweren, bei Täglicher benutzung ca. bis zu 8 Stunden am Tag, muss ich den Akku vielleicht einmal die Woche bis zu einmal alle 2 Wochen laden/tauschen. Was absolut kein Problem ist.Alles in allem kann ich nur sagen dass diese Maus zu den besten Mäusen gehört die ich jemals benutzt habe. Und das obwohl sehr viele immer wieder Hartnäckig behaupten dass Razer weder Mäuse noch Gamecontroller bauen könnte.Zu den Gamecontrollern kann ich bisher nichts sagen. Aber die Orochi V2 ist absolut genial insbesondere für den Preis.Zur selben Zeit als ich die Orochi V2 erwarb ich zwei Asus ROG Gladius 2 Mäuse. Ich mochte die Idee mit den leicht ersetzbaren Tastern. Leider muss ich aber sagen dass beide bzw. die Reihe Gladius 2 gegen die Orochi V2 absolute abstinkt. Dass ich die Form der Reihe nicht mag ist Subjektiv.Aber in der selben Laufzeit bei etwas gleicher Nutzung ist das Mausrad einer der beiden Gladius 2 defekt gegangen. Immer wieder Doppeleingaben oder gar keine Erkennung von eingaben. Und das Mausrad kann man eben nicht einfach so wechseln so wie die Tasten, wirklich schade und Ärgerlich, insbesondere wenn man den Preis der Maus (ca. 120€) und die Behauptungen seitens ASUS und deren Ruf bedenkt.Hätte ich mal lieber eine zweite Orochi V2 bestellt.
