And then came the Mamba, Razer’s first wireless gaming mouse that sees the SideWinder’s high dpi, raises it another 1600dpi, for a whopping 5600 dots per freaking inch. This is the fastest gaming mouse on the planet, but “faster” doesn’t always mean “better.”Sporting an ambidextrous design, a common characteristic from Razer’s labs, the Mamba’s shape is equally suitable for lefties and righties.
However, its inclusion of side button (two on-the-fly dpi buttons and two thumb buttons) on the left side of the mouse caters the mouse more for righties. Like the recently reviewed SideWinder X8, the Mamba works both wired and wirelessly. With the cord plugged in, the Mamba can be used just as any regular wired mouse while also charging its battery. When charged, you can untether the rodent and frag wirelessly. When in use wirelessly, gamers are required to attach the cord to the charging base which also acts as the receiver.
If a gamer wants to get up and make a sandwich or something, he can dock the mouse on the base for a quick charge without the hassle of plugging the charging cord directly into the Mamba.
