RazerNaga V2 Pro Wireless MMO Gaming Mouse: 19+1 Programmable Buttons w/Swappable Side Plates - HyperScroll Pro Wheel - Focus Pro 30K Optical Sensor - Optical Mouse Switches Gen-3-300 Hr BatteryECOLOGO

So, I was in need of a new mouse. My Logitech G604 died on me. I wanted something with a free wheel scrolling with 6+ side buttons. There is only one mouse that fits this. As of this writing that is this mouse the Razor Naga Pro v2. The G604 had two scroll modes, one bumped and free wheel scroll. To my surprise, the Razor Naga Pro v2 has a controlled wheel. In that you can make it bumpy, free wheel or less bumpy or quick bumpy, plus you can change the resistance of the wheel etc... AND it is software controlled by software or the non-analog button behind the wheel. I don't know how Razor pulled this off but it is amazing. Well worth the price of $170 verses the now $300+ Logitech G604 (only because it has been discontinued. Go ahead search for the G604 on Amazon if you don't believe me). And on top of that, once you program your macros or keyboard shortcuts using Razor's software, you won't need it anymore. Only to re-program your mouse. All your settings are stored on the mouse. I see many people complaining on other forums about the Logitech G604 and how there is nothing to replace it. There is. This mouse has it and then some.

I got this as an upgrade from my previous razer mouse to help emote with my avatar when streaming. Its been super useful and i absolutely love the swapable sides for whatever i need

Background: I have gone through two Naga Chroma's, two Naga Trinity's, and one Naga Pro (V1) since 2017, they each lasted roughly two years before starting to have issues. The Trinity and earlier Chroma versions had issues witht he left click switch/button waearing out over time, the Naga Pro V1, the switches were fine but the scroll wheel started to scroll in the opposite direction and not register scroll-clicks after two years but the left/right-click was still fine.Naga Pro V2 Review: This version boasts Gen 3 switches vs the Gen 2 in the Pro V1, so hopefully they are even more durable, they feel a little stiffer to click but that could also just be me comparing it to a 2-year old Naga Pro V1 that I am replacing. The wired cord is still removable and optional if you go wireless, but this year it is upgraded to USB-C instead of micro-usb. A welcome improvement! Not so welcome, is that the cable is sleeved instead of braided so it looks cheaper and the sleeve bunches up in places because it is longer than the cable itself. When paying double the price of the last gen Naga Pro V1 (roughly $80), this seems like a step in the wrong direction when shelling out $180 for the new version. I keep my mouse wired so it is always charging and I don't have an excuse for latency or input lag.Now, the big change here is the new HYPERSCROLL PRO WHEEL. My review after using it for a week so far, it's leaning to the gimmicky side but with some Razer Synapse improvements it could be made better with software updates. So what is it? Imagine being able to choose how granular/chunky/clicky/smooth your scroll wheel scrolls. For gaming I tend to keep it in "Distinct" mode, which has high scroll tension and only 15 "Scroll Steps" so with a normal finger length scroll it will only cycle between weapons for example about 5 times. Now if I switch over to excel and want to scroll through rows of data, that would be quite tedious, and with the higher tension, quite a finger workout, so you can swap the scrolling mode into Ultra-fine or even Smooth Scroll mode and get way more scroll steps per revolution of the scroll wheel.Now here are my gripes about this system. There is no true friction-less unlimited spin scrolling mode where the scroll wheel will keep rolling after you "fling" it in a direction. It DOES have a "Smooth Scroll" mode with basically no friction but the second you let off the wheel its stopped. Also, the Scroll Wheel Stages are not associated with a mouse profile, so you can't associate "Distinct" scrolling mode with one game for tactile/granular weapon cycling and "Ultra-fine" with another game, perhaps a civ game where you want to zoom in really close to see your city up close. You have to choose your profile (or have synapse associate a profile with a linked game) and then change the scrolling type independently. They did change the behavior of the up/down buttons under the scroll wheel, they used to be higher/lower DPI stages, now the top button cycles scroll stages and the bottom cycles DPI stages. To be fair, I can work with that. What frustrates me is that DPI stages are associated to mouse profiles, why cant scroll stages be as well? A simple software update could fix that. You can also disable Scroll Stage types you don't like/wouldn't ever use to skip them in the cycle when clicking through them. Some other people have also pointed out that there is only on "custom" slot in synapse where you can create your own Scroll Wheel Stage profile. I'll give it to them, seems dumb, let people make as many as they want.Overall, I am really disappointed there isn't a viable/equivalent replacement for the Naga Pro V1. The V2 Hyperspeed come sin at the right price ($80-ish, same as the old Naga Pro V1) but doesn't have swap-able side plates and doesn't have a wired option, battery only. I wish they made the Naga Pro V2 in a HyperScroll Variant and an option with just two modes, arbitrary standard notched scrolling, and truly free-spinning bearing scrolling like some of Logitech's mice. And if it came in considerably cheaper since it doesn't need to have variable scroll tension, that would be my dream mouse.The Naga Pro V2 is certainly neat/unique, but in my opinion not worth anywhere near $180. Some software updates could help swallow the sting of the price, but who knows if that will happen in the future. Always purchase based on today's features, not future promises/hopes. At the end of the day, I will probably always be buying the latest version of the Naga line since it's somehow still the ONLY cloud-synced mouse with 12 programmable side thumb switches and that's just hard to go back from once you've mastered your macros for gaming and office productivity. (Everyone that works in spreadsheets heavily or CAD style work should have a mouse like this)

Got this for my gamer child and he loves it. Not sure if worth the price. I know nothing about these electronics but if he gives it two thumbs up I will too.

I had to replace this mouse once, after the scroll wheel just randomly stopped working.Amazon was good about dealing with that issue. I've experienced Razer's "customer service" before, and it's HORRIBLE.I now have a new replacement. However, for some reason the Scroll options, the pre-sets you can choose, and modify, have completely stopped working. The ONLY scroll option I have now is a smooth scroll.I have completely shut down their Razer Synapse program, and killed all tasks in the Task Manager, to ensure it is completely shut down. I have done that, and restarted their app (Their app is bad in my opinion), and then killed the tasks, & then restarted the app. It changed nothing. For some reason, this mouse now locks me into a smooth scrolling option, constantly. It's both annoying, and unusable at times. I'm absolutely disgusted by the path Razer has taken regarding Quality, and Customer Service, and honestly, if this type of stuff wasn't occurring with this mouse, TWICE, i'd recommend the purchase. However, after my experiences, i'd recommend you buy from someone else.This is the SECOND exact same mouse, with "scroll wheel" issues, & all within a few months time I believe, based upon initial purchase and then replacement.This is ALSO the 2nd time a Razer mouse has completely crapped out and failed on me. I gave them another chance. This was the LAST time.I will NEVER purchase another low quality, low quality assurance tested mouse, or anything else form them. This is beyond ridiculous at this point.F Razer...i'll go with someone else for all my pc peripherals from this point on. Not only are their products prone to absolute failure a this point, but their customer service is some of the WORST i've ever experienced, and that is saying A LOT.If I could give Razer, & this mouse less than 1 star, I would.They actually demand you send them a VIDEO of the issue, as if that's going to help. All that is for is for them to try to dissuade you from returning their defective pile of crap. Also, it gives them an excuse to claim ignorance.Restarting the synapse program does nothing, even when killing it in task manager. Restarting the pc does nothing. Switching usb ports does nothing. ALL profiles are the same, and all scrolling options are the same, the mouse is STUCK in "smooth" scroll, at all times. This is a RAZER TRASH QUALITY issue, not a pc issue.Here are just a FEW of the issues i've found:1. https://insider.razer.com/razer-support-45/potential-bug-cycle-up-down-scroll-stages-not-working-with-onboard-profiles-414302. https://insider.razer.com/mice-and-surfaces-9/new-razer-naga-v2-proc-scroll-wheel-not-working-678043. https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/17b89za/shocking_customer_service_2nd_faulty_razer_naga/4. https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/17jtv87/naga_pro_v2_scroll_wheel_issues/5. https://insider.razer.com/razer-support-45/naga-v2-pro-scroll-wheel-not-working-635346. https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/1eu4ayo/custom_scroll_wheel_profile_on_razer_naga_v2_pro/7. https://insider.razer.com/razer-support-45/naga-v2-pro-scrollwheel-issues-431618. https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/18zhdur/naga_v2_pro_scroll_issues/9. https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/12qolks/razer_naga_v2_pro_huge_on_board_profile_and/Seriously...AVOID RAZER...ESPECIALLY this mouse...
