Razer Mamba Tournament Edition Setting a new bar for sensitivity



This latest Mamba proves, there’s more to customisation than how big a mouse is. It’s not too different from the original, albeit with a slightly less fl ared design and it’s wired, with a 2.1m USB cable. The Philips laser sensor boasts precision up to a stunning 16,000dpi, which can be adjusted in 1dpi increments. You can also confi gure from three to fi ve different precision levels and fl ick between them using the two buttons that sit behind the mouse wheel. The Synapse software enables you to change the polling rate as well — to either 125,500 or 1,000 times a second — as well as confi guring separate X and Y sensitivities. There are 11 buttons that can be assigned to various actions using Synapse. The mouse wheel is home to fi ve of these, as it rocks left and right, scrolls up and down — and you can click it. The Mamba TE’s sports RGB illumination on the left and right sides of the main body, on the Razer logo and on the scroll wheel. You can independently set any of these to the colour of your choice, set up animated waves or have it fl ash when you click a button. We found the Mamba TE to be an impressive gaming mouse. It’s a little lighter than we usually prefer (and there’s no way of adding bulk), but we soon got used to it. It’s smooth and precise, and we found it comfortable after long gaming sessions. Which is all very glowing, apart from the price. Yes, $180 is a lot for a mouse, but the Mamba TE is well worth considering.
