Our Verdict

Razer DeathAdder V2

Logitech G703 LIGHTSPEED with HERO Sensor

The Razer DeathAdder V2 is marginally better than the Logitech G703 LIGHTSPEED with HERO Sensor. The Razer is lighter and more comfortable to use, and its PTFE feet provide a smoother glide. On the other hand, the Logitech is wireless and fully compatible with macOS, and its sensor is more consistent.
