Why we like it

The Viper V3 Pro is Razer's flagship ultralight for competitive play. At roughly 54g it is among the lightest symmetrical mice, with the Focus Pro 35K Gen-2 optical sensor, Gen-3 optical switches rated for 90M clicks and support for HyperPolling up to 8,000Hz (bundled or add-on dongle). Battery life reaches around 95 hours. For fast, flick-heavy shooters it is a benchmark option alongside the Superlight 2.
