Looking more like something from the distant future, the Razer Ouroboros will also boast of a retractable back panel which can be set to any one of three positions, in addition to a quartet of interchangeable side panels, now how about that for a truly unique gaming mouse?

The Razer Ouroboros will make use of a cutting-edge 8200 dpi 4G laser sensor that is capable of accurately calibrating the mouse regardless of the surface, where it will also be able to provide improved tracking responsiveness as well as enabling users to customize lift-off tracking, creating precision control. Not only that, it comes with wireless capabilities that will feature 1000 Hz Ultrapolling between mouse and computer, where it makes sure that a user’s actuations will be instantly translated in a game so that you need not blame unresponsive hardware for your gaming failure, ever again.

Razer Naga MMO gaming mouse gets a refresh

razer-naga-2014Just what do you do when you happen to be at the pinnacle of your game? Why, you improve of course – remaining at the same place would just ensure that your competitors will catch up with you and eventually take over the coveted top spot that you used to occupy. Well, the Razer Naga MMO gaming mouse has been pretty much the best gaming mouse for the MMO genre to date, and also the best selling one, too, but even the best needs a kick in the butt once in a while, and that is exactly what Razer has done by offering the Razer Naga MMO gaming mouse 2014 edition.

This all new Razer Naga will boast of enhanced ergonomics, a re-designed mechanical thumb grid as well as a revolutionary in-game MMO configurator which should be able to make sure that your MMO gaming experience will never be the same again. For starters, its iconic 12-button thumb grid will now come outfitted with mechanical switches for increased tactility, speed and actuation assurance. Each of the buttons on the thumb grid will stand out in a more pronounced way than before, making it possible to blind-find them so that gamers can execute commands in a jiffy. Apart from that, its ergonomic form factor has also been updated, delivering a broader shape so that your hand will feel more comfortable holding it.

Both the fourth and fifth finger rests will now come with a gentler down-slope in order to promote better grip while reducing fatigue over an extended period of play. Not only that, Razer’s latest Naga will also boast of a tilt-click scroll wheel which can click in and out as well as left and right, giving gamers even more buttons than before at their disposal. This is definitely a nice bump from the 2009 predecessor, and if you are interested in upping your game, then the asking price of $79.99 for this puppy should not deter you, right?

Razer Naga gaming mouse reboot brings a tilting scroll wheel to the mix

Supposing you needed a full number pad on the side of your gaming mouse, there’s a brand new piece of equipment coming from Razer that you may want to have a peek at. This is the rebooted Naga MMO mouse, complete with a grip that’s made to work for righties and lefties – and mechanical switches galore. There’s a set of bright colorful lights around this accessory too, of course, so you can shine brightly beside your top-tier gaming rig with the LEDs all around.

This Razer Naga works with a tilting click scroll wheel, allowing you to up and down as well as left and right, strangely enough. While some rare games come with built-in connectivity with such input, you’ll likely have to retro-fit this set of tappers to your titles. This can be done with the mouse’s built-in in-game MMO configurator, complete with thumb grid – you’ll be able to light up the keys you want, when you want.

The folks at Razer have been so kind as to provide a chart which shows the differences between the 2012 model of the Naga and the 2013 edition, starting with the tilt-click scroll wheel, bouncing off a brand new more ergonomic form factor – left or right – and finishing off with he mechanical thumb grid buttons. Each button now has its own rather pronounced area, the whole setup tuned for “blind-find”.

Inside this device you’ve got a 32 bit ARM processor for miniature computing, allowing such features as temporary changes in sensitivity. Of course you’ll need a Razer keyboard to make that happen, as well. Such a connection happens with what’s called “Razer Synapse 2.0″, and it’s set to work just as well here with the 2013 edition of the Naga as it did with the 2012.

This device will cost consumers a cool $79.99 USD and it’s up for grabs this week. This is just one of many Naga mice available from Razer at the moment, with oddities like Epic, Molten, and Hex in the mix as well – watch for em.

That means if your preferred mousing hand is the left, it can be difficult to find a decent mouse. Add to that the fact that many high-end gaming mice can cost you $100 or more, and finding the perfect rodent can be a challenge. Genius has announced a new gaming mouse called the X-G510 that has an ambidextrous design.

That means it can be used with your right or left hand. It also features a crackled finish with a customizable lighting system. Like most gaming mice, and has adjustable sensitivity with four settings including 500/1000/1500/2000 DPI settings.
