Our Verdict

Razer Viper Ultimate

Razer DeathAdder Essential

The Razer Viper Ultimate and the Razer DeathAdder Essential are gaming mice with different designs. The Viper Ultimate is a wireless mouse with an ambidextrous shape. It has a more flexible cable, smoother-gliding mouse feet, and three more programmable buttons. Also, it has a much wider CPI range, a more precisely adjustable CPI, a lower lift-off distance, and a much lower latency. On the other hand, the DeathAdder Essential is a wired right-handed mouse with a high back. It's better suited for large hands using a palm or claw grip, while the Viper Ultimate is better for smaller hands using a palm or claw grip.
