Recently, Razer claims that its new mouse outperforms every other wireless gaming mouse on the market right now. This Razer's wireless mouse is positioned at the high-end spectrum as well as a viable for pro gamers.
According to Engadget, Razer is launching the Lancehead and Lancehead Tournament Edition gaming mice today for $140 and $80. The Lancehead is a wireless mouse which uses what Razer is calling Adaptive Frequency Technology, where the radio receiver jumps from channel to channel depending on interference.
The company claims that their mouse is far different from other wireless mice because it does this channel switching without lag or loss of information and it also uses an optical sensor. The Tournament Edition is the wired variation of this mouse that uses an optical sensor. This device uses the same body along with the mechanical mouse switches that Razer designed in cooperation with Omron.
Razer's Lancehead is not an entirely new redesign of the mouse for the company. Razer is using its popular and excellent DeathAdder Elite as a reference point. The biggest difference in terms of the shape of the Lancehead and the DeathAdder is that the former will work the same with either left-handed or right-handed people.
Recently, Razer also announced today that they are planning to launch Razer Synapse Pro, it is an upgraded version of its hardware configuration software. This improved software now enables players to save their personalized settings for their Razer devices to the cloud and to certain devices themselves, as noted by Tech Radar.
Razer's Lancehead has its own on-board storage which will ensure that it works exactly how you set it up on consumers home PC or even when they hit the road or try to use it on a PC without an internet connection. Meanwhile, Razer Synapse Pro is launching into beta soon, and players who get the Lancehead will get an invite to participate in the testing of that software.
