Our Verdict

Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro

Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed

The Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro and the Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed are lightweight, wireless gaming mice in the same lineup. Both mice have very similar right-handed shapes, but the V3 HyperSpeed is lighter and smaller, with a flared outer right front edge. The V3 HyperSpeed delivers better overall raw performance despite using a less performant sensor on paper. Both mice support a polling rate of 1000Hz out of the box but are compatible with Razer's Hyperpolling Dongle (available for a separate purchase), which increases the maximum polling rate to 8000Hz.

    How come the deathadder v3 hyperspeed has less click latency and sensor latency than the deathadder v3 pro? Could it be that the specs got mixed or are these the right specs for them? I mean the v3 pro is supposed to better right? Since it has a better sensor.

    That’s an excellent question King HArT!

    I can assure you that the results are correct. While the HyperSpeed technically performs better, the differences are very minor and certainly not noticeable. Still, they are measurable, and could be chalked up to a couple of things:

    • The most likely explanation is firmware. We tested the HyperSpeed on a newer firmware than the Pro, meaning that Razer has had more time to fine tune the HyperSpeed’s performance.
    • It’s possible that unit-to-unit variance and manufacturing tolerances played a role as well. If we bought and tested another V3 Pro, there’s a chance it would perform better.

    Thanks again for the question! don’t be afraid to reach out if you have any more!

    The cheaper Hyperspeed looks like it’s better than the Pro in basically every way. What’s the point of paying $20 more for the Pro?

    Hi Gordio283,

    That’s a great question. The two mice are very similar, but there are a couple of differences between them. Namely, the HyperSpeed is noticeably smaller than the Pro, so it’s not as suitable for those with large hands. Also, it has a slightly lower-end sensor than the V3 Pro that doesn’t support Motion Sync, even though it performed better in our tests. I’d only recommend the Pro over the HyperSpeed if you have large hands and need a bigger mouse.
