With the Razer Viper V2 Pro, I have to flip it over then test to find the right DPI with default settings. I play games on low DPI to make the most out of my giant mouse mat (and for greater pinpoint accuracy), but I use higher DPI to shift my mouse across three monitors for everyday work. For the Razer Viper V2 Pro, this is now dual-purpose, controlling power on/off and the five default sensitivity settings, which you can also personalise (including limiting it to fewer options). My biggest issue is one that’s personal preference: the DPI button on the bottom of the mouse.

The Razer Viper V2 Pro never skipped a beat in extensive everyday and gaming tests, proving to be a faithful work mouse and fragging companion. Initially, I thought I’d be put off by the 58-gram weight, but the Razer Viper V2 Pro quickly won me over. Wireless battery life is all well and good, but not if the performance isn’t there. That was without turning the mouse off every day. While I disabled the battery-saving settings to ensure consistent performance, it took a week of heavy usage (8+ hours most days) for the low-battery indicator (15%) to pop up. Razer claims the wireless battery life lasts up to 80 hours and I believe it. You can use the Razer Viper V2 Pro in wired mode, but you really shouldn’t unless you’re out of juice. Alternatively, connect the 2.4GHz dongle to a spare USB port and charge as require with the USB-C cable. The Razer Viper V2 Pro charges with a USB-A to USB-C cable, which also plugs into a mini dock with the 2.4GHz dongle on the other end. It’s a cinch to set up, too, and works flawlessly with a USB hub if, like me, you have way too many peripherals connected to the back of your PC. In fact, the Razer Viper V2 Pro feels like it’s a great universal size that’ll work well with most gaming grips and hand sizes, and it certainly works well with my giant hands and fingertip-hybrid grip. I don’t usually like lighter mice, particularly not for gaming (I used to love my Logitech weighted mouse), but Razer thankfully doesn’t make weight sacrifices by shrinking the chassis size of the Razer Viper V2 Pro.
