Razer Adds Another Cool Gaming Mouse–For “On the Go” Gamers

Published on June 26, 2011 By DrJBHL In Personal Computing

Razer has added yet another gaming mouse to its catalog of devices for gamers with the Razer Orochi Black Chrome Edition.

“The mouse's laser sensor can track up to 100 inches per second, and boasts several features including on-board memory, on-the-fly sensitivity adjustment, and a symmetrical design for both left- and right-handed gamers. The Orochi is also small for on-the-go mobile gaming, measuring approximately 1.4 by 2.7 by 3.9 inches (HWD).”

The mouse can be used in either wireless or wired mode.

“The wireless mode (two AA batteries required) features up to 2000 dpi sensitivity and connects via Bluetooth 2.0 for freedom from your gaming rig. Razer recommends that users choosing to go wireless use "high performance batteries" to increase battery life. For those who don't mind being tethered to their computers, the wired mode uses a detachable, three-foot micro-USB cable and goes up to 4000 dpi sensitivity.”

Support: Windows and Mac computers. Supports Windows 7, Vista, XP, and Mac OSX (Tiger and above).

Customizable buttons can be found on both sides of the mouse.

I can't say enough about how well built a Razer mouse is. They are one of the best I've ever had my hand wrapped around.

My son bought me a Lachesis 3 years ago and it's still as precise as 1st day I hooked it up. It's nice to be able to set the dpi up high when you really need it.

I used to swear by logitech mice but the last two I bought lasted less than a year. With as sweet as this ones been, I doubt I will ever buy a brand other than a Razer.

I've had my fair share of gaming mouses thru out the years. Most can't stand my extreme gaming though. LOL.

My first gaming mouse was the Logitech VX Nano, yea, I know. Strange but I had a gaming laptop at the time and wanted something small. This worked like a charm believe it or not. Interesting to see how similar it is to this Razer Orochi Black Chrome Edition.

Then I got the Razer Deathadder, the best gaming mouse I have ever tried. It felt smooth, comfortable and fast. But, it couldnt stand my gaming style either so it eventually broke within a year.

Now I have the CM Storm Inferno. Not a bad mouse for gaming. My only beef is that when I shut down the PC and restart it the mouse is not always detected. Well, for some strange reason the right button works but the mouse wont move. I'm forced to disconnect it and reconnect and then works just fine. I miss my Razer mouse though. I actually wanted the Mamba but too expensive.

I use to like trackballs years ago but have not gotten one in a while. i think I'm just afraid of getting use to one and not always having one handy will become annoying to me.

Thanks, guys. My cat has stopped speaking with me.

Last thing he said after seeing these mice was, "Peon!".

Odd how that came about just as men in white over coats were at your door.
