    The past many years, Razer has been proven to be one of the best manufacturers for gaming mice. Back in 2000, the Boomslang made a revolution in the gaming industry.  This was to be the first of high DPI mice that gave Quake players an edge over anyone else that was still playing with a $10 Microsoft PS/2 mouse.  As time progressed, Razer has improved their designs and software to give the user a wide range of mice custom tailored to their gaming needs.  The...

    The new Diamondback 3G is a true performer offering the best sensor for low and medium sensitivity gamers out there for a mere $49.99. The infrared sensor that the Diamondback 3G features is the same as Razer used in the DeathAdder and it provides far superior performance compared to both conventional laser and optical mice, in terms of tracking performance at speed, and stability. Another major improvement over the old Diamondback is that the new one features a lot of... Read more

    This mouse is one of the best you can get from the market today. I was a user of G9, and my was I impressed when I laid my hand on this beauty. The surface grip was good, nothing that unpleasantly encourages palm sweating. Buttons are crisp, and not as noisy as generic mice. The customizable buttons are the highlight of this piece of hardware. Using the fool-proof GUI, setting it up was easy, and fast. Overall, a wonder addition to any gamer at heart. Read more

Been using it for over 3 years, and the only issues I have ever had were with certain games sometimes switching the thumb buttons around. Accurate, good value, and looks the part too. 5 stars every time. Read more
