Whether it will last or not also depends on how you use it and also a bit of luck. If the Orochi you bought is problem free, then you are in luck plus if you take good care of it and perhaps if you sweat less than others during gaming then that should prolong its lifespan too.

hey, anyone got their spacebar key stuck between left and right alt sometimes?

Mine? So far, few drops and it's 100% functional. No such issues with it at all.
So yea. It passed its 1 year birthday liao

Orochi can be used without battery when the cable is plugged in. I usually do that.

Regarding another issue about Imperator vs Orochi, Its easier for me as I can switch 2 wireless when needed and wired when I wanna pawn people. Imperator can't do that, can't it? Mamba on the other hand, require the peddle-stone to go wireless. A bit annoying since I'm travelling with a laptop, DSLR n etc.

u mean BW Expert / Ultimate? Mine sometimes stuck between spacebar n left alt. What i do is remove d "extra" plastic of the left-alt using the nail trimmer. (not cut it, is trim it until it no longer touch d spacebar.)

Yup just cut those extra "plastic" that is not properly removed during production
Same happen to my G15 last time, only small matter. DIY with fingernail cutter and it work like charm

that seemed to work, thanks!

Noted!

Such a bad quality control?
Expecting nicely done key caps from such expensive keyboards.

How about the headset stand? Remember about it??

Today went my cousin house which i long time not been there, he is using MS Reclusa and Copperhead.
Copperhead is a superb mouse with very positive feedback, but no matter how long i try get use to his mouse i still feel bit weird. Wondering how u guys grip CH.

I used to grip my CH by the thumb and pinky below the rails. The ring finger is resting near the rails.

never tested the CH before, but i do have a diamondback 3G, gripping it with my thumb and ring ringer though, ring finger gripping it by the rails.

ya, think that is the best way, but the rail is a sharp rubber thingy, not a good place to rest finger, not comfortable for me.
if pinky and ring finger both below the rail, then feel like the clicking fingers no longer parallel with the button 1 and 2, hard to click.
When i use CH, always accidentally click the button 7 and 8, then adjusted the dpi, that is really killing me.
Therefore don't understand how those CH lover grip a mouse which really uncomfortable for me.

hey guys, any reviews by some users for Razer Mamba here?\
hope to hear some pro n cons before getting it..


thanks.

The software is buggy and laggy, battery life is terrible The Microsoft X8 pwns the Mamba in these 2 areas but on the other hand, the Mamba has better precision.

that sounds like a complete turn down..
anymore cons of the MAMBA?

LOL~

This is the time for you to go test the mouse 1st before hearing any form of critics from others. I own a mamba, don't find the software buggy nor laggy compared to my Orochi.

Its only that Mamba requires a peddle-stone 2 use wireless unlike Orochi that made it fall out of my favor recently.

i grip my CH...
thumb on side of cos, ring on the rail, little finger tip touching the bottom of the mouse and mat at same time acting as a little brake

tested already, the grip n design is fine but need to know what current user of MAMBA thinks of it n the prob after long term usage.
peddle-stone?

the scroll wheel tends to have creaking sound after a while of use, say a few months.....u may send it in for warranty of it but problem will come back.....my friend is on his 3rd Mamba....n the sound is starting to come back....I have sent mine for warranty for the same problem....still waiting it to come back. Now using my Logi VX Revo.

All I can say for Razer products is that the build quality is crap....

Performance wise, its one of the fastest and most precise wireless mouse out there.....

And indeed, the software for Mamba is also crap, lags like hell....end up, I didnt even install the software anymore....

That's the 2 main cons, other than that the mouse is fine. If you're a hardcore gamer planning to play on wireless all day long then I'm sorry, the battery will go flat within 2 hours or so

If you don't compare then obviously you think your Mamba works fine Now I've owned plenty of mouse and I hope I don't have to list all of them down and comparing Sidewinder X8 and Mamba, the battery life and software for Mamba sucks totally. If you think your Mamba's drivers/application is running without lag, wait till you try the Sidewinder X8's application. My friend and I have since sold this Mamba off and mind you, we bought it RM440 when it was launched about a month.

Added on December 26, 2010, 3:44 pmI agree boss That's why I find it weird how come someone can say the Mamba software is NOT LAGGY. Maybe he has not used any other gaming mouse before ever in his life and Mamba is his first. I've had quite a number of Razer products and no doubt they have good design but quality is very very filmsy and bad. My advice is, DON'T buy the Mamba.
