Taking A Closer Look

Continuing with the most venomous snakes in the world, the Razer Copperhead™ with unprecendented tracking, performance and technology goes above and beyond standards to create what is arguably the best mouse available. Let's look at some close up features and refinements of the Copperhead.

A mouse can make a world of a difference when it comes to gaming. Buttons, ergonomics and performance all come into play when competing for the top rank, and as usual some gamers are constantly looking for the latest edge. The Razer Copperhead™ is available in 3 different models, the Anarchy Red, Chaos Green and Tempest Blue. Our model is the Tempest Blue which offers stylish blue lighting.

One of the most important aspects of a mouse is how it feels. The Razer Copperhead™ is a lean mouse, low in height, slim, and rather long in length. That, combined with the incredibly lightweight body result in a mouse that's controlled more by fingertips than the wrist. This actually allows more control and quicker response. Another notable aspect of the Copperhead is it's symmetrical design, which unlike other mouse designs allows lefthands to play.

On either side of the Razer Copperhead™ are two rubber non-slip rails, the pinky and thumb resting on the body that angles inwards beneath them. One other thing that may or may not appeal to you is the Copperhead's illuminating personality. The scroll wheel is translucent to allow the light to pass through, also the side rails are segmented by plastic from the inside to give free way for the light to escape. On the topside is Razer's three headed snake emblem.

The Razer Copperhead™ is powered by a genuine 320nm (nanometer) wavelength laser diode. When the mouse is plugged into the computer, the Razer logo which has a blue LED behind it will fade in and out slowly. Currently there is no way to turn of the pulsing logo on the Copperhead, but Razer may add this functionality in the future.

Flipping the Razer Copperhead™ over, we get a nice look at the underbelly. The slick Teflon feet can be seen, as well as the 2000 DPI laser and a reset button in the bottom right corner. Also notice the 4 extra buttons, two by two on each side of the Copperhead.
