Razer Cobra Pro Review. The best, most misunderstood mouse from Razer. (real unbiased review) 

UPDATE: I did in fact just return the mouse, and not because I didn't enjoy it. As a competitive mouse for me, it just was too small for my grip style to have a consistent experience. Other than that, I just wish it was slightly bigger otherwise it would have been my new main easily. Waiting for a lighter weight competitive level Basilisk or a complete new Razer Mouse to see if I main. Lancehead V2 soon?

You are 100% right. Gamers are absolutely awful at reviewing things. They go cray cray with placebo and marketing hype like "0.2ms vs 1ms". As for the size, I've already gotten used to the Logitech G903 Hero which is 110 grams and is only 8% longer, and basically the same width and height, so I think the size seems fine. It is just a matter of getting used. You know what would be really funny? A comparison of 500hz vs 8000hz. You know what 8000hz is good for? NOTHING except making your CPU melt by interrupting it 8000 times per second for absolutely zero reason. Guess what? 500hz is already just 2 milliseconds of latency. Yes, even 1000hz is overrated. So many pros use 500hz. Polling rate literally doesn't matter whatsoever. Humans are not even able to perceive a 2 millisecond latency. But try convincing a gamer of that. You could literally fool a gamer into believing anything. The mice brands have just spent years fooling people by putting more and more overkill specs on their mice to fool the easily fooled gamers. 😂🔥

Ultra lightweight is overhyped. 77g is light unless you have weak hands and a flimsy wrist. I completely agree with you, I think this is a good mouse in my opinion.

I love this mouse, everyone can keep hating. Their loss lol.

i have this mouse. when i saw tech ppl reviews i was shaken cuz they said it was awful. i love this mouse and it is very good

I just pulled the trigger for this one, I'm coming from a Mamba Chroma wireless and that's from 2018! Can't wait to get my hands on it. Thanks for taking the ime making this video bro!

been using it for a while now. love it

The Cobra Pro was way too perfect to me and i love it. I don’t care how much hate they got out there, 78g still light compare for the size with 100h batts life cmon guys. I upgraded from Abbysus essential(80g)

This is my next mouse .I have a Razer Viper Ultimate currently. TY great review.

Nearly exact my thoughts from someone who bought it but still mains a g903. Once they put a tilt and freewheel on the cobra and make it a bit bigger, I'll be all over it. 😀

Great review!!

I'm coming from a SteelSeries aerox 3 2022... I aam sure the size is almost the same? Will i have issues with the size

Great review!

I've come to the same conclusion, I don't even remember buying this mouse but it really grew on me. I used the GPro and GPX for years and I've always HATED the way it feels with my grip. But when I tried the Deathadder v3 the ergo was a over correction. The Cobra pro is THE mouse for fingertip/claw hybrid grips. I am glad to see someone give a actual review instead of just regurgitating bs because it isn't super popular yet. Also couldn't agree more when you said "it's 75g but it feels lighter than that", this thing has so much range of motion it feels great with the stock skates alone, but I suppose it would feel even more seamless with some aftermarket glass skates. Also a singular egg weighs roughly 70-75g, so for the people that say it weighs to much I suggest going to the kitchen and getting a egg to use for weight training so you can get up to par for this mouse, dually the egg has 6g of protein so you eat it after to recover from such a intensive workout! EDIT: Forgot to mention that my hand is 7in from middle finger tip to base of palm, and 4.5in wide from thumb knuckle to side of palm. Just in case somebody has a similar hand size and was curious. The only place it falls short is if you're a palm grip, I mean it is do-able, but not ideal. The thicker/tactile scroll clicks are actually a personal preference for me because I use mwheeldwn to jump and have yet jump accidentally from bumping it, which I noticed frequently happened using the Deathadder V3. I could see it becoming tiresome if you have to do a lot of scrolling outside of gaming so if you do a lot of editing/workflow stuff I'd recommend having a separate mouse for those things preferably one that is wired so you can just plug it in quickly when you need and not accidentally leave both on and get some random mouse movements from your work mouse on your gaming mouse when you bump the table etc etc.

thank you for this. its like every reviewer thinks a mouse should be a 50g 4 button shell or a 150g 20 button chunk and everything in-between is garbage to them.

I had the original Deathadder 2013 and the originally Wired Viper, and both of the rubber sides came off after a year or two of use. Does this happen with newer Razer mice, like the Cobra Pro? Hopefully not because I already bought it and arriving soon!

Ive just ordered this mouse. I do a lot of sim racing so dont use my mouse for gaming. Just wanted a nice mouse to use that I could also match up with my Deathstalker keyboard to share the same dongle. Also got a good deal on Amazon

My hand size is 18cm long and width 11cm should I go for it?Now I am using g305 its 92 gram,Is it perfect small mice for me?

I’m so glad I found your video on this mouse. I remember first going through the tech specs on the Razer site and liking everything I read, only to find almost everybody on RU-vid absolutely hating it. You brought up great counter arguments to what people are complaining about and answered questions I had that nobody else even bothered to answer. Ended up buying one myself. People are REALLY exaggerating when they call them “bricks” and whatever other bs. I’m coming from the very well-loved Deathadder v2 and that thing is 82g. So thank you for actually talking about the mouse and sharing valuable info. TLDR; you spit the truth, it’s a great mouse, IT’S NOT A BRICK

The following is of course just my opinion but here is why I think majority of people hate the mouse: I think a lot of the complaints were because people had been literally begging Razer for a Viper mini wireless for a long time, apparently what happened is that the designers and engineers were told "the sky is the limit, just make the absolute best mouse we can" which is why the signature edition is so expensive compared to the cheap and cheerful wired mini. The cynical side of me would also say this is Razer capitalising on the popularity of the mini. Anyway so of course some people bought it, and others just couldn't justify the purchase so they asked Razer rep on reddit if a "standard" version would release at the start of 2023 and he just said "wait until summer". Summer comes along and instead of a lightweight stripped down signature edition which was still wireless they were given the Cobra. I am not saying it is inherently a bad mouse, but it isn't aimed at the demographic that loved the viper mini lets be real. So I think that is where a lot of the hate comes from, because they've been waiting so long, and they released two mice that no one asked for, so they can either buy the premium one, or buy the super generic rgb one. Again I don't think the Cobra is inherently bad, but I would say the demographic is more just the average gamer than say fps grinder/viper mini fans.

good unbiased review... I think people have been blended by marketing / advertising of mice over the past years relatingn to the lightwheight trend. a lot of people would have more consistent aim if there mouse wouldn't be that lightwheight, based on hand dexterity. i mean, there was a time where most cs:go used zowie ec2/ec1 -> ec2-b to be precise, which was 90g.... i pulled the trigger on the cobra, for me it will always be shape over wheight....

Oh wow didn't even know this razer mouse was available. On their website I don't appear to see it listed on the main page, but as someone with small hands but prefers an rgb mouse to see at night which the viper doesn't have this is definitely a consideration! Thanks for showing this!

godly analysis, im stuck in picking between a basilisk v3 pro and a cobra pro, any advice? context: i currently use a deathadder v2 wired and literally do not care about actual pills worth of grams weight, i also have huge hands and use a hybrid paw grip

it's a great mouse except the rotary encoder on the scroll wheel is prone to failing all the time

Is the RGB really that bright?

Does it have wireless lag compared to wired connection?

Very nice video! This is an interesting mouse. Would this mouse be suitable as a daily driver mouse? Like for casual/work use? I'd would get it for a new gaming laptop but i game with a controller.

Hello, I have a small problem and I would like to ask anyone. I bought Razer Blackshark V2 Pro - White Ed. But when I want to activate THX Audio i have only 15 days trial and i cant activate. Does it require a code that I didn't get and I don't know where it could be? Its says enjoy this 50% discount with this promo code but when I bought headphones, I should get it for free, right? Could someone please help me please :/ ? Thank you so much

Thank you for making this video, I’ve been a huge fan of razer mice for a while now. I didn’t understand why people were hating on this mouse so much. I think it looks amazing and and an overall good release for razer.

i heard sensor suxs, is it true?

Just some nerds who can't handle and always whining about a 77g mouse

Awesome mouse. Nice review. Love mine. Screw the whiners and the sheep that follow.

Razer Cobra Pro is good but should weigh around 60g.

i have tried both heavy and lightweight. Lightweight always feels better for tactical shooters like valorant and csgo when playing on low sens. And this was a huge let down from razer. There are other mice by razer in the same budget with a bigger size in the lower weight category. They could have easily done it.

The viper mini signature is far and away the best mouse razer has made.

As someone who has used the mouse, the tech in it isn't inherintly bad, but it could have been executed so much better. Most people wanting a wireless Viper Mini were people who loved how light and cheap the old one was, which the Cobra didn't do. 130 for a mouse is a lot, and considering the Viper Mini was a "budget mouse", this definitley missed the mark in that regard. All people wanted was a wireless Viper Mini that was light, affordable, and not filled with unnessesary features, such as rgb. What further confuses me is the "pro" in the name. The pro line of Razer mice are usually super simple, ultra lightweight mice that are specifically designed for competative esports, which is definitley not what the cobra was aimed towards. This mouse isn't terrible, but it's definitley not what most people were asking for.

That doesnt real reflect why peopl critic the existing of the cobra . Instat of calling it a viper mini that woud make sens in there line up they used a new name for a mouse that has nothing spezial on top of denying again peopl a real viper mini wirless mouse thats not over priced like the viper mini SE but they have no problem to throw out a compleatly new line that lets be real is not realy anything spezial . It also shoudnt weight any were near 75gs

Honestly it's not the best one theyve released this year, because I think the razer viper v2 is sm betterrrr
