Our Verdict

Razer DeathAdder V2

Logitech M100

The Razer DeathAdder V2 is an excellent FPS gaming mouse, while the Logitech M100 is a sub-par, budget office mouse. The Razer feels sturdier, has two side buttons, a much more flexible cable, and better-gliding mouse feet. It also has an adjustable CPI, a much higher polling rate, a significantly lower click latency, and software for customization. The Razer is ideal for all grip types but unsuitable for small hands using a claw or fingertip grip. On the other hand, the Logitech is significantly lighter and well-suited to all grip types and most hand sizes.
