I can vouch for Blacktrix's Mamba review; it was spot on.

Here's mine.
It's bloody fast, yes. You'll need time to get used to it. Or just drop the DPI settings (adjustable to increments of 100DPI) to whatever you're comfortable with. Have no doubts, you'll find your own favourable settings in no time.

What needs to be stressed is that the main attraction point of the Mamba is NOT its speed. No one will ever NEED 5600DPI, nor will anyone use it regularly. It's the 'feel good' factor that brings it to a totally new level in mice history.

I had no mouse jittering problem, it works flawlessly on a Destructor pad. From what I've felt so far (haven't been gaming much lately though), the tracking is very slightly better than the Lachesis (I seem to be getting headshots more easily with slight flick of the wrist), but then again maybe I was just looking for excuses to justify spending so much on a mouse.

I adore the DPI switch buttons. They're by far and away the best ones that I've tried (most recent gaming mice included), and infinitely better than the ones on the Lachesis. You'll need some time to memorise the DPI light displays (all of which are fully customisable), but once you do, you'll be switching between DPI settings like never before.

Can't really say much about the battery life, as I haven't really used it for any hardcore gaming sessions as of yet. Anyhow, that won't be much of a problem as you can just plug the cable into your mouse if you worry it'll die off soon.

As for the difference between wireless and wired mode, there is none. Period.

Ergonomics wise I find it perfectly fine. I rest my whole palm on it, and it feels natural, like I can game for hours and hours without any pains. Love the rubber grips on both sides of the mouse.

All in all it's an almost flawless mouse. I said almost because it's a tad sensitive to the surface it's being used on. For me it works perfectly fine on a Destructor, but it was close to being unusable on a Goliathus Control Ed.

That's about it.

Some might complain about the lack of gimmicky features like adjustable weights or changeable grips. To me they're just that. Gimmicks. The Mamba doesn't need them, it's special enough as it is.

So anyone thinking of getting the Mamba, go get it. You won't regret it. Just make sure you use it on a hard pad.


Oh and apologies to those who find this post TLTR.
