The Razer Naga V2 Pro is a high-end, wireless MMO gaming mouse that continues Razer's Naga lineup. Like the previous release in this lineup, the Razer Naga Pro, this mouse has a right-handed shape and modular design that lets you swap between three different side panels with either a 3, 6, or 12-button layout. New to this version are several performance upgrades, including a new sensor, a new generation of optical switches, and extended battery life. This version also has what Razer calls a 'hyperscroll pro wheel.' This scroll wheel allows you to customize various settings to adjust how it works. Examples of these adjustable settings include the smoothness or tactility, the number of steps in a full rotation, and how the wheel functions when you scroll at different speeds.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants
The Razer Naga V2 Pro is only available in a black colorway. You can see the label for our unit here. While it isn't strictly a variant, there's also a new version of this mouse called the Razer Naga Hyperspeed X. This separate version uses AA batteries for power and has fewer features overall, with a simplified scroll wheel and no support for wireless charging. It also doesn't have hot-swappable side panels with different button layouts.
Popular Mouse Comparisons
The Razer Naga V2 Pro is a high-end wireless gaming mouse and a continuation of Razer's Naga lineup. This version brings several under-the-hood updates to the series, including a new sensor, a new generation of optical switches, extended battery life, and a customizable scroll wheel. Otherwise, the mouse looks visually similar to the previous generation Razer Naga Pro, and it retains its three hot-swappable side panels, a feature that has become a signature of this series that sets it apart from MMO models from other manufacturers.
While this mouse is primarily geared towards MMO gaming, Razer advertises that the additional side button panels provide versatility for playing games in different genres, including Battle Royale, MOBA, and FPS games. However, it's important to note that this mouse is heavy, and its weight makes it challenging to make quick movements in fast-paced, competitive games.

Test Results
This mouse looks nearly identical to the previous generation Razer Naga Pro. It has a matte black plastic body with glossy black plastic accents near the scroll wheel. There are RGB lighting zones in the Razer logo on the palm rest and in the numbered legends of the 12-button side panel.
This mouse has excellent build quality, and the materials feel high-quality. The body is made of solid plastic with a matte finish that feels nice in hand. There isn't any noticeable flexing or creaking when you apply pressure to the body, and the hot-swappable side panels are held firmly in place with magnets and don't slip out of place during regular use. There's some very minor wobbling and rattling in the scroll wheel, but this is fairly normal for mice with scroll wheels with L/R tilt inputs, and it isn't very noticeable during regular usage.
This mouse is heavy. Its heaviest configuration includes the 12-button side panel, while the lightest configuration is with the two-button side panel and the small puck on the underside of the mouse removed.
This mouse has a comfortable, right-handed shape with an area for resting either your ring or pinky finger on the right side. There's also a small grip section on the right, and both the three and six-button panels also have textured sections for added grip.
Overall, this mouse is well-suited to a wide range of hand sizes, though it is fairly wide and may feel cumbersome for those with smaller hands. The buttons on each hot-swappable side panel are well-placed and easy to reach. However, you will likely have difficulty reaching some of the side buttons if you have extra-small or extra-large hands.
This mouse has an advertised battery life of up to 150 hours when connected with the HyperSpeed Wireless USB receiver and up to 300 hours connected via Bluetooth. This mouse supports wireless charging, but to use it you'll need to purchase a separate Qi-certified 'Razer Wireless Charging Puck' which replaces the default puck cover on the underside of the mouse. If you're interested in a similar wireless version of this mouse that uses AA batteries for power instead, check out the Razer Naga V2 HyperSpeed.
This mouse has an exceptional charging cable. It's quite flexible and lightweight, but it retains some minor kinks from how it's packaged.
The mouse feet on this mouse are outstanding. They provide a smooth gliding experience on mouse pads and directly on desks. There's some minor noise and scratching when using the mouse on a desk, but this doesn't affect the gliding experience.

You can program all buttons on this mouse, including the left/right scroll tilts. You can also choose to assign a 'Hypershift' button, which allows you to program a secondary layer of inputs. The total number of side buttons and programmable inputs are calculated using the default 12-button side panel. The left- and right-click buttons are Razer Gen-3 optical switches.
The Razer Naga V2 Pro has exceptionally low and consistent click latency. It delivers a highly responsive in-game experience for gaming in any genre.
Overall, this mouse has excellent sensor latency. However, there is a bit more delay before the start of movement than with the previous version of this mouse, the Razer Naga Pro, or other recent Razer releases using the same sensor, such as the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro. This may be a result of power-saving settings, and it may be something Razer alters with upcoming firmware updates. These results were confirmed multiple times after double-checking that all power-saving settings in the software were disabled. To provide context, these results are still great, and it's extremely unlikely that you will ever be able to notice delays before movement during gameplay with this mouse. That said, the added delay may still have an imperceptible effect if you mainly play fast-paced, competitive games where even milliseconds count.
The available polling settings are 125Hz, 500Hz, and 1000Hz.
Note: This mouse does not support Razer's HyperPolling Dongle. For more information, you can check out Razer's support page for the Razer HyperPolling Wireless Dongle here.

The Razer Naga V2 Pro has a customizable scroll wheel Razer calls a 'hyperscroll pro wheel.' It allows you to adjust the tactility, resistance, and the number of steps in a full rotation. Out of the box, there are five scroll wheel presets you can cycle between using the button below the scroll wheel, and you can add a sixth custom profile of your own design.
The Razer Naga V2 Pro uses Razer's Synapse 3 software. This software allows you to customize a variety of settings, including CPI, polling rate, lift-off distance, power settings, scroll wheel customization, and more. These options are reasonably well laid out, but the number of settings may be overwhelming to some. Additionally, some settings can't be saved to onboard memory, including RGB lighting effects.
As is the case with software from other major manufacturers, Synapse 3 receives significant criticism from the broader community. While there weren't any issues during the testing of this mouse, many users online criticize this software for requiring frequent updates, taking up disproportionate system resources, and a host of other complaints. This software may be frustrating to work with if you prefer more lightweight software options or no software at all.
Note that only the new version of this software, Razer Synapse 4, is available for macOS.
