Asus ROG Keris II vs. Razer Deathadder V3 Pro -- An Ergonomic Mice Battle!

Today, we are going to compare Razer’s ergonomic gaming mouse, the Deathadder V3 Pro to Asus’s newly launched ergonomic entrant, the ROG Keris II Ace. Launched in August 2023, the Deathadder V3 Pro has been around the block and garnered a loyal following. Although we will touch upon the 4 / 8K debate, this video is really focused on two, top-tier ergonomic gaming mice. Interestingly, I’ve been using Logitech’s very excellent & ergonomic MX Master Series for years on my Mac and for editing. Bizarrely, I’ve never really considered an ergonomic gaming mouse until the Keris II Ace landed in my mailbox and won me over. I’m all-in to further explore ergonomic gaming mice and I think you’ll enjoy my conclusions from this comparison.

I've been using the ROG Chakram, and it's just perfect for me. I really like the size and how it forms to my hand. I've tried the Razer Viper, and it just doesn't work for me. It's just too small, so it's hard to get a good grip on it. I notice this especially when playing games like Overwatch where everything happens so quick. It's hard to be precise when the mouse is so small, and when the cable feels like it weighs more than the mouse itself xd Smaller and lighter is not always better.

@GamesCooky agree with you 100% that fit is the most important feature when considering a mouse as most of the other gaming features are on par with each other. I have medium-sized hands, so the smaller mice work better for me. Absoultey cannot play with a wired mouse...ever. Appreciate the comment! 👍

[@monsieurtimmy6838]

Perfect 😀 ! Thx for the job !

[@mynusten]

Thanks for the engagement and encouragement! Much appreciated. 👍

[@markus301]

which mouse is your main right now?

[@mynusten]

@markus301 after testing several ergonomic and hyper-polling mice, I decided to main the Asus ROG Keris Ace II. I keep the polling at 2K. After a couple months of daily use, imo, its the best ergo, hyper-polling mouse on the market right now.

nice review!!

[@mynusten]

Thanks for the nice comment!

[@sNova-nf5tj]

Maybe a review for ROG Harpe Ace and Razer Cobra Pro? )

[@mynusten]

sNova-nf5tj another good idea and will put it on the list. For the next few weeks, I'll be reviewing some lower-end gaming headphones that have been sitting on the shelf and ready to be reviewed. I'll check out the ROG Harpe and Razer Cobra Pro. So much great gaming gear out there today! I was living in the Stone Age as a kid as there was hardly anything good in the market. 😂

$159.00 for the asus my god man you should be able to save the world with this mouse

[@mynusten]

@gtf2584 funny comment! Inflation is definitely hitting every consumer product. I expect the Keris II will go on sell in the near future, but I've converted to using it as my daily driver.

[@gtf2584]

@@mynusten according to ole joe inflation is just fine maybe for him it is i really do like the mouse thou and a great review as always thx

[@mynusten]

@@gtf2584 Indeed; inflation is hitting us all hard...unless your bank account rains cash! Appreciate the engagement.👍
