8:00 something these reviews NEVER seem to mention: the on board profiles DONT SAVE THE RGB TO THE DEVICE. At least for razer stuff, only the key bindings are saved. Not some of the more advanced macros/functions and not the custom RGB patterns. It was a real bummer to find that out when I went to bring mine to work.

You are right, microphone mute function for an exemple dont`t work without synapse, and just the spectrum cycle of RGB will work, it`s a thing at least, but not the ideal like save the exact profile that i use in my device, i like the products and i never needed to use out of my rig, but it would be cool to at least save RGB stuff, shame on you Razer.

The Deathadder V2, just like every other Razer mouse released from 2018 onward, does NOT save the RGB lighting settings to the mouse. The onboard memory is limited to the basic DPI, LOD etc. The most the mouse can remember in terms of lighting without Synapse 3 is brightness. The Deathadder Elite can remember RGB settings but nothing else. Don't really know why Razer are not allowing this on their more recent mice but it's frustrating because if you wan't anything other than spectrum cycling rainbow lights or off entirely, you need that awful Synapse 3 software running in the background at all times...

8:09 I actually kind of doubt that. I have the Deathadder Elite and use Linux. There is an (unofficial) Open Source project called Open Razer which is a Linux driver for these to control RGB etc. (without the mouse still works but you can't configure the colors). So, after I configured it to stay green, I uninstalled the drivers and applications and since then the colors actually stay green even on other Linux devices (haven't tried Apple or Windows), and I can still configure the colors if I reinstall the software. No idea how it works if it really doesn't have on board memory, but whatever.

Maybe the eighth button is moving the mouse scroll wheel left or right, I remember having a mouse that had such a feature, maybe they also implemented it into this one

[@jakewini1728]

The 8th button is on the bottom of the mouse near the sensor from what I saw before when they announced it

[@HellSpawnRulerOfHell]

7:00 What I want is the mouse to have low "lift off distance" both ways.

[@smokyz_]

you can set that up in settings in Synapse. Its a slider.

[@AnthondeVries]

i am still waiting on a mouse that allows you to change the click pressure, my fingers are too heavy

[@charlesgollot473]

the razer mamba chroma has this feature: they call it "Adjustable Click Force Technology"

[@dancoolatta]

Swap out the switches if you know how to solder

[@trash3570]

Just buy a zowie they have heavy clicks

[@TheLEGENDofTydo]

This is the main reason I hate new Razer mice. The old ones had much higher need for pressure. I went from a Razer Naga Chroma to a Razer Naga Trinity and I hate it. Much heavier, click pressure is WAYY less, and the quality is just worse.

[@jeremyg9305]

The Razer StarCraft 2 mouse let you do that.

Cant wait to get RGB body implants to match my setup

[@typerightseesight]

Just got it from the 2.0 2013 edition as an upgrade and Holy moly what have I been missing besides everything.. literally, everything.

[@jimn7692]

How did you get on with weight difference between the two?

[@typerightseesight]

@@jimn7692 I upgraded from the 2013 to a basilisk v2. tbh I really cant tell the difference in weight but it seems to weigh more because it has a metal clutch button.
