Imo, over rm400 still overpriced, altho kinda expected due the unnecessary items comes with it.. like "jewelry box" packaging and its charge-dock.

Tbh, who actually uses the charge-dock?.. as u can't use the mouse while its on the charge-dock, especially as it can be charge using the mini-usb plug, so that u can game while charging it.

QUOTE(enriquelee @ May 19 2009, 10:22 PM)
Let me do a brief review on my new toy, Razer Mamba.

When I receive the mouse in the box I was like ‘Wow…..what a stylish display box!’ and it gives me a feeling like the mouse is been displayed like a fine piece of art work by Michaelangelo’  tongue.gif
The box is like a jewelry box with trays at the bottom.
You can find charging dock, usb cable and battery with its cover respectively in each tray.
1 bad point here is, the acrylic cover is quite difficult to take out. At least, I need a help from my friend to get it open. Secondly, to detach the mouse from the plastic holder also take me sometime. Maybe I was too cautious to take it out.
The "drawers" looks like made from paper... is it?.. unsure.gif

QUOTE
Next is the ‘holding feel’ of the mouse. Actually, it is quite similar to the less expansive Death Adder. But it has a much more better build. It has an all-black exterior with a top surface coated with rubber. The whole top is coated with rubber, not like the other Razer mouse which only the buttons are rubberized. In fact, this make me a bit worry, coz as you all know, Razer is famous for rubber peeling off. Lets cross our fingers it doesn’t happen huh.

If not mistaken, nearly all Razer mice nowadays are fully rubberized (DeathAdder, Lachesis, Salmosa etc.), not just Mamba.

QUOTE
Another down side of Mamba is, I find the way they design the mini USB jack make it not flexible, coz it is so unique that other USB cable can’t fit in the mouse.

I saw some videos testing on the Mamba, it seems the mini-usb plug its pretty finicky to plug into the mice.

And hows abt its battery life?.. as most reviews saying it has short battery life, and i heard the new firmware might fix it.

Cheers smile.gif

the charging dock also doubles as a transmitter, else how to be wireless? tongue.gif
also the dock charges the mouse much faster than usb does.

yea, the 'drawers' are made of cardboard like material.

Yeah. i know the dock its a transmitter, but if they make it just as a transmitter (w/o charge-dock, drawers, jewelry box etc) which will make its size much more smaller like 50%-70% smaller than current ones, which im sure it will cost much less wink.gif

Thats another thing that cost more by having 2 types of charger.

By looking at the charge-dock, it looks like it charges directly to the mouse's battery rite?, instead going thru the mini-usb.

HEh.. 'drawers' made from cardboard, imo thats the only thing that Razer made Mamba cost effective tongue.gif

As Everdying mentioned earlier on.. the charge-dock its like a 'fast-charger', it charges much faster than wired mode which its a mini-sub plug.

Cheers biggrin.gif

it should.
but the weight without battery is the same as krait, ie. damn light.

i like the mamba shape more than DA, so im still hoping a optical wired mamba-like mouse will come out soon.

I see, i gotta say so far i haven't see online reviews abt its charge-dock that charges faster or abt can it be use without battery when on wired-mode.

Optical?.. i thought its "Infrared" sensor, the last optical sensor by Razer its Razer Viper rite?.. correct me if im wrong.. blush.gif

aiyah, infrared and laser both fall under optical.
but since everyone calls laser laser, then i just call infrared optical tongue.gif

cos the reviews concentrate on the wireless mode, which they should or perhaps they never both to rtfm.
razer has already said it works without battery in wired mode, just need to set it to 'off' mode.

I wonder why they make it more rubber huh, since their rubber keep peeling off.
