all right so what I'm trying to do is create a wireless set of gaming peripherals for MySpace and giving the new Razer lancehead Wireless a shot it's definitely got big shoes to fill at $139 because the rival 310 and the G Pro which are my current two favorite mice are half the price and more so let's see if this laser mouse stands a chance right after this Wow is this yours it sure is but how huuu huuu it pays off to stay loyal NZXT hue plus now available in black or white lighting up my air RGB fans to complement the crack and cooler all inside the beautiful Mantha ITX NZXT bring all those colorful dreams together test your own imagination links for parts in the description below so design wise I think Razer have done a good job here giving us this gunmetal gray type of top surface although it is a bit slippery the side rubber grips have that linear continuty from the front grills and they even managed to sneak in some glossy plastic bits at the back really not a fan of the glossy plastic however it looks fantastic on video and photos so again they're pushing their marketing agenda on to you but in reality they do can't get covered in little smudges and stuff by the surface is so little it's kind of not significant the illumination portions look fantastic with nice diffusion good color vibrancy excellent for product marketing again but terrible for battery life and so in five hours I lost 25% of the battery that's ridiculous that's what light use doing some chrome browsing and some video editing in the mouse kind of staying idle in between however when I jumped into a competitive match for 45 minutes of constant use I lost 5% of the battery so the battery life is actually comparable to that of the g4 3 Wireless with the lights on so you both get about two to three days of charge but if you turn off the illumination you get about a week's worth of charge now good thing the receiver brick is low profile and can't be hidden on your desk somewhere and the cable can be plugged in into the mouse when you need to charge up I do like the USB dongle it's very small and can be stored away on the mouse itself when you need to travel the mouse shuts off during the night or you can also manually switch that off with the button underneath and if the battery is below 15% or a threshold we get a blinking red LED on the scroll wheel now the body shaped to the most part is good but there are some quirks sofirst ambidextrous form is appreciated for left hand users but the front section flares out on both sides making for an uncomfortable grip on the right side where my ring and pinky fingers are so I wish the section was a bit slimmer and it immediately feels off when compared to something more comfortable like the rival 310 also the top of the thumb section where the browser buttons are are not angled so overtime my thumb eventually sits on the back browser button instead of it being underneath it and for smaller hands palm grip will be okay but the lion's head favors finger grip more with its flatter top surface the buttons are all good nice separation between the primary left and right clicks with good location for the DPI shift and a comfortable feedback on the browser buttons as well and the scroll wheel is textured wood like middle click and easy to feel scroll steps and so if you can get behind the price point of the land said you're okay with the shape and you're okay with charging this thing every two to three days you might actually be disappointed in a sense of performance because it is still laser despite very high quality optical sensors available on other Wireless iterations like the g4 3 or the G 900 not exactly sure what Razer is thinking because the wired version of this mouse has a optical sensor but the wireless comes with laser only now the issue with the lancet for me is not the latency everything feels ok there but the liftoff distance that despite calibration and Razer synapse software crashed on me twice in the three times that I've tried to calibrate for the surface so that's a bit ridiculous and despite the calibration the mouse cursor moves way too much when you lift off the mouse and when it comes down to be considered acceptable for such a premium product air or any competitor of gaming I've also experienced some sensor freezes where the mouse clicks will be registered but the mouse movement is not registering at all so I'm stuck with a dead mouse after three seconds once I start to move the mouse there is a bit of motion going on and eventually the sensor starts to pick up and everything goes back to normal so I figured out it was the crash during the surface calibration that caused this because after recalibrating my surface I've had no sensor stuttering issues after that and third despite playing on the same dpi level as my rival or the G pro I cannot control my flakes or the super fast in correction it still feels like there's some form of acceleration and for a gaming mouse that is the worst thing if you already have your wrist memory and how much you need to flick and how much you need to maneuver in order to aim control so yeah I am not comfortable using this even though I've been trying to you know game with this for like a week and usually I'm getting comfortable and get to know the mouse in one or two days but I'm still most learning exactly where to position you know where to aim with this thing and that's not a good thing and so combine that with a jerky liftoff movement it's just not a mouse for competitive shooters at all even when it's connected with a wire the laser sensor here is far inferior to what is available in the market for much lower price points and even if Wireless is your priority I would still recommend going for like g43 Wireless it has a much better shape and a fantastic sensor or the G 900 which has a bit of an odd shape for me but still I would recommend the g4 3 over any Wireless iterations that is available market right now and so that means that the razor lens head will not be in my wireless arsenal that I'm trying to build always stay charged with linky power up power banks Houston gorgeous aluminum enclosure with dual USB and type-c port with support for a quick charge 3.0 to get your device's recharged fast available up to twenty thousand one hundred million power capacities check them out in the description below and so that's it for my review of the Razer Lance had Wireless I am disappointed they decided to stick with the laser sensor and here instead of growing something more superior that still is compatible Wireless but make sure to check out those other videos that are more relevant for this wireless gaming arena so thanks so much for watching I'm going to meet RIT with our architects and we'll see you in the next video
