Our Verdict

Razer Mamba Elite

Razer Mamba Wireless

The Razer Mamba Elite and the Razer Mamba Wireless are very similar, except that the Elite is wired while the Wireless can be used wired or wirelessly. Other than that, the two look almost identical, and both feel very well-built and comfortable. The Elite has a lower lift-off distance, a more consistent sensor, and L/R tilt buttons on the mouse wheel. On the other hand, the Wireless is easier to take around with you as it doesn't require a cumbersome cable and has a low click latency even when used without a wire.
