The Viper Ultimate with the wireless charging dock is around $50 at BestBuy if you wanna try that

Yup, but Viper V2 Pro is kinda pricy, and Viper Ultimate is 74g compared to G Pro's 80g as well as costing $60 (with the charging dock) at BB compared to the G Pro costing around $90-100.

You're comparing the two B class tiers of these gaming mouse, compare the viper ultimate v2 vs g pro superlight if you want to be realistic. Those other options are on sale so often because they're less desirable.

Oh I thought he was talking about the regular G Pro Wireless, not the Superlight. In any case, I still think that the Viper Ult is a good choice if he doesn't already own it since it pretty much has the same shape as the V2 Pro, but weighs quite a bit more.

Actually I thought about getting the Viper Ultimate v2 because of the Mac compatibility or the G pro OR G Pro superlight since I’m not sure if the super light weight is even an advantage or if I prefer a more heavier mouse maybe.

Seems like the Viper Ultimate (v1) has some issues with MacOS, but a lot of people linked this github thing (I don’t know if it’s safe aha) that lets you customize your Razer products: https://github.com/1kc/razer-macos

Since I want to use it on my business laptop customizing wouldn’t be the best option for me. But thanks for the tip!

By the way, have you tried the DeathAdder V2 Pro at all?

Nah im still stuck with my Hyper X haste wired because I can't justify the extra $120 for a gpro wireless right now. I did have a wireless viper ultimate that I ended up gifting because it was too heavy and I wasn't a fan of how it felt almost like it was meant for my left hand.

I read that the Viper v1 isn’t compatible with Macs though. at least some functions aren’t working. that’s why I was thinking about the more expensive V2 with full compatibility.

Yea looking over the Razer forums about MacOS, seems like there's a lotta issues.. However, BestBuy does now offer free shipping with no order min. and free returns, so maybe it's worth a try to see!

Actually looking over some Reddit posts about Synapse and MacOS, it seems like only Synapse 2 is fully supported by MacOS. However, according to this page on Razer's site, Viper Ultimate as well as Viper V2 Pro are not supported by Synapse 2.

Oh, thanks for the tip. I read somewhere that the V2 is fully supported. Will do some more research on it. Otherwise I guess the G Pro is the way to go for me…

If it's just for business, I think the G305 might be a good option too. Mine lasts forever. (the clicks are pretty loud tho)
