RAZER Abyssus Review

hey guys,it's Mashhud Hasan from frenzyweb360 and once again with a review of an ergonomic and ambidextrous gaming mouse by Razer.it's the Razer Abyssus V2.first of all,a big thanks to Startech BD for providing us a review sample of this gaming mouse.you'll find this mouse at 4.5k of BDT.here's the product link-click here

first off,the packaging.the unboxing experience was good.the packet was as usual,colored with a trademark combination of green and black.there's a pic of Razer Abyssus V2 at the cover of the packet.at the back,it shows some of it's features.the packet also displays some basic specs related to the mouse.

after unboxing,you'll find a welcome message from the CEO of Razer which will initiate you into the cult of Razer.Razer always adds this message to their flagship products.you'll have product guidelines.

it also contains a pair of stickers of Razer logo which will represent yourself as a Razer product user.

finally you'll have the mouse with it's cables wrapped up.everything inside the box including mouse are tidied up well.

at first,let's talk about the outer parts of the mouse.build quality of this mouse is very good.even after shaking it hard,you won't find any sort of rattling.mouse is quite ergonomic but palm and fingertip grippers will get the most of it's comforts.there's a 3-color lighting effect that cycles through green,cyan and blue color.it has a logo of Razer on it's palm grip.side grips are mould-rubberized which will help you create more friction between fingers and grips and will allow you to lift off without mouse getting slipped off from finger.the claw rest is comparably wide.cable is rubberized.while moving the mouse,it creates much friction with the surface.so my recommendation will be to use a mouse bungee with the mouse.this mouse is quite small and weight is only 79g.

there's a total of 4 buttons in this mouse including left & right buttons,a DPI button and a scroll wheel.with the DPI button,you can adjust the DPI of this mouse into 5 different modes(800/1600/2400/3600/5000 DPI).DPI button is very quiet while clicking.scroll wheel is pretty decent.it's rubberized and the texture is spiked up.left and right buttons are quite hard to click.which means,the buttons are agile and will last long.but this may cause higher latency.i've tested it's response speed and the result is given below

the latency is quite low.sometimes it crosses 10ms though but it's not noticeable.the average latency is 5.51ms which is quite high comparing to other mice that i've tested but it's good enough and will give you good responsive performance.

the polling rate of this mouse can reach upto 1kHz.i've tested it at 500Hz.

as we can see here,the polling rate constantly renders the rate that you desire and the average rate at 500Hz is 477Hz,which means the average accuracy of frequency spectrum is 95.4% but it can move down to 88% and move up to 98.2%.so the performance of the MCU is very much satisfying.

now let's talk about the sensor of this mouse.it has an optical sensor that can run upto 5k DPI.even though the sensor is optical but it can also work on the surface that's illuminated by laser emitter and thatswhy this mouse can also work on non-opaque surfaces.i've tested the accuracy of this mouse and i'm giving the results down below

*78% accuracy at 800DPI+5/11 Windows sensitivity

*accuracy is over 100% at 800DPI+6/11 Windows sensitivity

*82.33% accuracy at 2400DPI+5/11 Windows sensitivity

*plus deviation at 2400DPI+6/11 Windows sensitivity

*76.88% accuracy at 5000DPI+5/11 Windows sensitivity

i've tested it's accuracy at 800,2400 and 5k DPI cause many people get hyped at higher DPIs.i doubt about whether the DPI is really putting any impact on the accuracy or not.because as we can see here.comparing to 8-00DPI,2.4DPI's accuracy is better at a certain windows sensitivity.but at 5k DPI,the accuracy decreases significantly.Win.sensitivity is putting the main impact here.at 5/11,sensor is tracking quite accurate in almost all DPI modes.at 6/11,it starts skipping pixels a lot and it's noticeable while moving it precisely.at 4/11 win. sensitivity,it decelerates too much.so my recommendation is to use this mouse at 5/11 win sensitivity.

up here,this is another test that i've done to judge the sensor.tested it at 1600DPI.the frequency spectrum simultaneously moves up/down with the sensor's tracking speed and movement.the correlation is accurate and the rapport between MCU and sensor is very satisfying.

well,the sensor works well on certain options.as i've noticed before by testing the sensor,you have to calculate gingerly to adjust the win. sens. and DPI.even though the DPI doesn't give much impact but higher DPI surely tampers your gaming.after gaming,i've saw that at lower DPIs like 800 and 1600,it tracks pretty smooth and doesn't spin out at quick horizontal movements and tracks without any jitter.at 2400 and 3600DPI,the cursor sometimes spins out at quick horizontal moves but at 5000DPI,most of the times it spins out and interpolates while changing the vector of tracking.it also renders noticeable stutter.even though the DPI isn't affecting your accuracy,using this mouse at lower DPI will give you better performance than higher DPI.

so,these are overall explanations of Abyssus V2.build quality will attract you,loaded with effective features.buttons are decent for gaming but i think side buttons are needed.sensor is satisfying enough.accuracy is good on certain adjustments,sensor is pretty much prevented from higher acceleration,pixel skipping and angle snapping.even after having low tracking speed (100IPS),it still works smooth on quick movements and tracks well on almost all types of surfaces.

thanks a lot for reading.be sure to always stick with us and stay tuned for more.
