RazerOrochi V2 Mobile Wireless Gaming Mouse: Ultra Lightweight - 2 Wireless Modes - Up to 950 Hr Battery Life - Mechanical Mouse Switches - 5G Advanced 18K DPI Optical Sensor - Quartz Pink

I am on my computer often (hours a day for work and play). I gamed for decades and always had the best mice. But, the last year few years I haven't gamed much and had been using something not so great. I play a game here or there again and decided I wanted something great again. I want a mouse that will last many years (something that you have to put batteries into / not rechargeable), that is fairly small and light (which I've always preferred), has no fancy lights, long battery life, responsive & accurate, and good quality / feel.This clicks all the boxes! It allows you to use a AA or a AAA; only one at a time, do not insert both. The AAA option is for the lightest weight. I admit I haven't used that option. I want the longevity of the AA over the AAA (usually rechargeable AAA's are under 1000mah, and AA's are over 2000mah - so you get 2 to 3 times more battery life with the AA). I use rechargeable batteries in everything; however, the first battery I used in this mouse is an Energizer lithium. I want to see how long it lasts with a normal high quality battery (so far, 30 days with ~7 hours of computer use a day. I never turn the mouse off, it is always switched to 2.4 and turned on when I am away from computer). With the AA the feel and balance is great. One of best feeling mice I have used. Has plenty of buttons for my uses. Extreme gamers may want more. I barely use the few extra it has. The buttons all feel good and sturdy. They should last, I hope. It looks classy, I have the white color.I like that is has both bluetooth and 2.4 modes. The 2.4 mode will give you the best performance. However, it will also cut the battery life! The bluetooth mode will give you a ton more battery life; however, you will lack some performance. I have not tested bluetooth mode at all yet, I wanted to test the mouse fully with this first battery before doing that. In the future, I may switch between bluetooth mode and 2.4 mode when I switch from normal computing to gaming. I only game say, 1 out of 7 hours I am on the computer. So, that is a potential benefit. I also like it has the bluetooth in case I want to take it anywhere for work computing, with a laptop or tablet. Then, I can leave the 2.4 usb card in my desktop at home, and still have a great mouse for on the go. When I bring it home, it's all ready again.Overall I am very happy with it after having it for a month now and using it daily. I hope it lasts for years.*Update. My mouse battery finally died for the first time on March 27, 2022. It was working perfect, then suddenly the cursor stopped moving. It lasted about 2.5 months with an Energizer Lithium (2.4ghz whole time, mouse never turned off). Not bad! I assume a good rechargeable (Eneloop) will give me at least 2 months (and with rechargeable batteries, I will just replace every 2 months (maybe even every month), just so I know my mouse will never stop working when I need it)).

What I Love:Lightweight and Portable Design: Weighing under 60g (before adding a battery), this mouse is incredibly light and easy to carry around. Its small form factor fits perfectly into a laptop bag, making it ideal for gaming or work on the go.Dual Wireless Modes: The Orochi V2 offers both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz Hyperspeed Wireless connectivity. Switching between devices is seamless, and the Hyperspeed mode delivers ultra-low latency that’s perfect for competitive gaming.Exceptional Battery Life: With up to 950 hours of battery life in Bluetooth mode or 425 hours in 2.4GHz mode, this mouse ensures you won’t have to swap batteries often. It supports both AA and AAA batteries, giving you added flexibility depending on what’s available.Performance: The 18,000 DPI Razer 5G optical sensor is highly accurate, and the click latency is impressively low in Hyperspeed mode. It’s responsive and precise whether you’re gaming or working.Comfortable Grip Options: Despite its small size, the ergonomic design works well with various grip styles—fingertip, claw, or even palm for smaller hands. The textured surface also provides decent grip during extended sessions.What Could Be Improved:Grip and Build Quality: While the mouse feels solid overall, the lack of anti-slip grips on the sides might be an issue for some users, especially during intense gaming sessions. Adding grip tape solves this but comes at an extra cost.Software Limitations: Razer Synapse software is required for full customization but is only compatible with Windows. Mac users may find this limiting, and some might not appreciate how intrusive the software can feel on their system.Small Size Drawback: While great for portability, users with larger hands might find it less comfortable over long periods, particularly if they prefer a palm grip style.
