About the Razer Cobra

The Cobra brings features from pricier Razer mice down to a budget: a compact symmetrical shape at 58 g, Gen-3 optical switches rated for 90 million clicks, 100% PTFE feet and a light Speedflex cable that drags less than a standard cord.

The 8,500 DPI optical sensor tracks up to 300 IPS, which is plenty for most games at normal sensitivities. Chroma RGB lights the underglow, six buttons are programmable in Synapse, and one profile is stored on the mouse. Side buttons are on the left, so it suits right-handed players best.
