Razer DeathAdder Chroma Gaming Mouse Launched
Razer, a world leader in connected devices and software for gamers, today announced the launch of the Razer DeathAdder Chroma gaming mouse. The Razer DeathAdder Chroma features the renowned ergonomic design of its precursor. It is equipped with a 10,000 DPI optical sensor that is able to track lift-off distance as precise as 1 mm on most surfaces, including glass table tops. The upgraded sensor is capable of mouse movement speeds up to 200 inches per second with 50 G acceleration, ensuring exacting accuracy and organic fluidity onscreen.
Together with Razer Synapse: Stats & Heatmaps, the Razer DeathAdder Chroma provides gamers precise details such as game time, button presses, distance moved and even how much overall pressure was exerted while gaming. This incredible amount of technical tracking data coupled with the upgraded ultra accurate sensor allows gamers to tweak the Razer DeathAdder Chroma to their individual play style and further increase their accuracy more than with any other mouse on the planet.
"The Razer DeathAdder Chroma is the world's best gaming mouse favored by eSports athletes everywhere," says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. "Our Synapse software continues to add value to our hardware products, and this is the latest example of that. Validated by professional eSports athletes, the iconic ergonomic design and the ability for gamers to hone their accuracy make the Razer DeathAdder Chroma the perfect mouse for any play style."
The DeathAdder Chroma joins the BlackWidow Chroma and Kraken 7.1 Chroma that come with the option of 16.8 million customizable colors and a range of effects through Razer's cloud-based hardware configurator Razer Synapse. Chroma allows the device to sync lighting colors and patterns and comes with an open SDK that enables game developers to integrate advanced lighting effects based on in-game events such as a base being under attack and much more.

I love their design, and comfort, but I don't like their quality.
Mamba/imperator/orochi and now deathadder 2013
I dont know you guys maybe is just bad luck.
But there are gamer breed people from WOW/Diablo etc games, that has a habit clicking the damn mouse like gazillion times when cruising the mouse through screen, no matter where... imagine it is like Alzheimer's disease...
and well... okay the switch is broken... order some omron switch on farnel or digikey and you are ready to go further... where's the problem, everyone fixes their own cars too?
For those never had problem with their mouse, consider yourself lucky or you have different batch with different components within it.
I know first hand it's also problem in Logitech, Steelseries, CM, Mionix and Roccat. Basically every brand.
The same was with old button type mobile phones(like nokia 6310), there were people(I called them also pianists) that could crack the soldering underneath the CPU(it was on the opposite side of the keyboard , as they pressed the buttons so badly with force, the PCB bends and thus cold joints appear... few harsh clicks and same can be caused to the mouse...
It is a mouse not a rocket science, their problems are mere childish electromechanical issues, that all mice might suffer, maker does not matter, just coincidence, bad item batch, lunar phase and etc... bashing just razer is not serious... it is a good mouse for the given price.
I had same issues with Logitechs from last two years.
I have single Razer Salmosa from the early days when Razer was new to market - it's rock solid.
I have no doubt that their later products are 'quality optimized' in a negative way for us, and positive way for them.
