Our Verdict

Razer Viper Mini

Ducky Feather

The Razer Viper Mini is better for most uses than the Ducky Feather. The Razer is smaller and lighter, making it a better choice for those with small hands, but the Ducky is suitable for those with larger hands using claw and palm grips. They each have an ambidextrous design, but the Ducky has side buttons on either side. Lastly, the Razer has programmable inputs thanks to its dedicated software, which the Ducky doesn't have.
