Our Verdict

Razer Viper Mini

Razer Orochi V2

The Razer Orochi V2 is a more versatile wireless gaming mouse than the Razer Viper Mini. The V2 connects wirelessly via a USB receiver or Bluetooth and uses a single AA or AAA battery. It also has a broader CPI range and a lower lift-off distance. It's best suited for smaller hands using a claw or palm grip. On the other hand, the Mini is a significantly lighter wired mouse with much better click latency. It's best suited for a fingertip grip for medium and large hands, but it's also suitable for a claw or palm grip for smaller hands.
