I can deal with a lack of dedicated DPI buttons but the Essential has the worst cable ever.

Love this review. Quick and straight to the point. Sub earned

Good video brother. It all comes down to the consumer. If like me you work pay check to pay check and have just paid £2000 outright for a new Rig but don't have much more to spend on a mouse then you cannot go wrong with the Essential.. If you're all set up and can spare the extra buck then you can't go wrong with the V2. Had my Essential for 6 months and it has served me well.. Will upgrade probably next year.

i was wondering which mouse is the most similar to the 2014 chroma? And btw are the dpi/sensitivity buttons annoying when u scroll on the v2?

Great video! Thank you.

3:40 good tip using rtings 4:25 is the V2 sensor better only because of more DPI? oh 4:33 the LOD

I already have Model O but I want to try out an Ergo mouse for my claw grip.. this shipping is so slow tho can't wait to try it

Hmm, I got a few different deathadders it seems, haha. I have the essential, the V2 and the Elite. The grips on the side are rubber for all but the essential, but I know I have another one at my mom's place that was possibly the Elite...the grips are rubber, but they started flapping I don't think that will happen with the V2 because the rubber grips are more built in... I do kinda get you on the feel of the V2 vs essential. The Elite is glossy, but the V2 and essential feel grippy. Maybe it's that the V2 is older, but it feels a little less grippy on the top than the essential. On my elite and V2, it is cycling between colors, but the essential is just green. No biggie for me. I think the color shift is cool and all, but not an extra $20/$25 worth of cool. I kind of like not having the DPI on the mouse...I keep pressing it accidentally and my DPI jumps up a bunch randomly and I have to click it to go back down. I guess I have poor control over my clicking when I'm in the middle of a huge fight... The cable for the Elite is a little thinner than the V2, both braided, and the essential is rubber. (I have the essential, the elite and V2 as well, but I was wondering why it was 20 vs 40 and if I had done something wrong.) I mean, I don't need the V2 or elite on all my mice. I will test the essential out in game, but it seems good in initial tests and if I just needed a few more mice for my extra PCs that I was building, I can't see the harm in getting a couple of the essentials for the price of 1 V2/elite. Thanks for the side by side comparison. Now I don't feel so bad for grabbing the black and white essentials, haha.

Let's go Tekifyyy!

Great comparison. That wire kink made me cringe through. I'm still rocking a Deathadder 2013, although I did have to fix my scroll wheel at one point. Other than that it's been the best mouse I've ever owned. I would definitely get the V2 if I were to replace it.

Great video!

W vid 😁, I really wanna know how to setup a macro for my game

Idk is it just my death adder but the middle mouse button takes a bit more pressure to activate

That seems too lite. My logitech darkfield is 168gms with the battery in and that's what I like. I think a lite mouse with a cable is not a good combo.

Deathadder has nearly double acceleration and ips speed than essential.

I was having issues with mice and their mechanical switches failing sooner than expected. Switched to the Deathadder V2 and because they are optical they wont break mechanically and its been rock solid since day 1.

You can't really go wrong with either of them when it comes to performance.

Razer - DeathAdder V2 or Logitech G402 Hyperion

The essential is just trash. Had the Roccat Aimo for three years now until it got the double click problem. Despite that it still feels like new! Also the cable is great. Bought it for 40 bucks back then. I will try the V3 then.

Viper mini or deathadder v2?

U keep pumping out these vids too fast I CANT KEEP UP

ARE THE SIZES OF THE MOUSES EXACTLY THE SAME?

Mean while the death adder essential bieng the most expensive mouse i own 😭

I can lift weights so weight iisnt a big deal to me

Dont forget pple its Razer, who have shitty Quality Control. Just do yourselves a favour and buy other alternatives.

why do u got so few subs, it doesnt make sense

the Essential has shit scroll wheel. it starts scrolling backwards within a couple of months. and i seen a lot of people have this issue. avoid.

Funny. My essential has a braided cable like the v2 here has

Deathadder Essential blows the V2 out of the waters due to the price. V2 defiantly not worth it

😮

The Razer Deathadder Essential feels so trash! Feels like any 15$ Amazon Mouse

both have doubleclick left button problems after lot of gaming.
