Our Verdict
Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro
Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro
The Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro and the Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro are lightweight wireless gaming mice designed for competitive play. They share the same right-handed ergo shape, but the V4 Pro is lighter and offers a better-advertised battery life, an updated sensor, and an optical scroll wheel encoder that should improve long-term durability. The V4 Pro also includes an 8k-capable dongle in the box, while the V3 Pro supports 8k polling only with a separate purchase. Both feel comfortable for larger hands using a palm grip, but the V4 Pro's slightly wider side button spacing makes them easier to distinguish by feel. It also adds extra software features like Dynamic Sensitivity and Sensor Rotation, which the V3 lacks.

Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro vs Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro: Main Discussion

Looking for a personalized buying advice from the RTINGS.com experts? Insiders have direct access to buying advice on our insider forum.
You’re right, the DeathAdder V3 Pro can reach up to an 8000Hz polling rate when paired with Razer’s HyperPolling dongle. However, our review focuses on the mouse’s out-of-the-box performance. Since the HyperPolling dongle is sold separately, we don’t include it in the main data for this review.
There’s an error on DeahAdder V3 Pro Statistics - Maximum Polling Rate 1000 Hz. Yes it is corrected in text discription but still Maximum Polling Rate thru wireless connection is 8000 Hz (thru described hyperpolling dongle), moreover battery life time of this mouse (17h) on 8000 Hz polling is comparable to DeathAdder V4 Pro (22h).
