Our Verdict

Razer DeathAdder Elite

ROCCAT Tyon

The Razer DeathAdder Elite is a better wired gaming mouse than the ROCCAT Tyon. The Razer is much lighter, and its slightly smaller body is better suited for small hands if you use a palm grip. It also has a much wider adjustable CPI range. On the other hand, the ROCCAT has way more programmable buttons.
