The latest Razer mouse features Razer’s proprietary “Adaptive Frequency Technology” (AFT), the world’s most precise laser sensor, hybrid on-board and cloud memory, and an all-new ambidextrous form factor.
Razer’s advanced AFT wireless technology ensures industry-leading transmission stability by not only syncing data reporting perfectly between the mouse and the user’s system, but also connecting to the strongest interference-free frequencies within the 2.4 GHz band and adaptively hopping only when necessary. The result is lag-free data transmission between the Razer Lancehead and PC that outperforms every other wireless gaming mouse.

In addition to full functionality on Razer Synapse, owners of the Razer Lancehead are exclusively invited to the upcoming Beta for Razer Synapse Pro.

The new switches have an extended durability of up to 50 million clicks, and are optimized to deliver the optimal response times for gaming with a click latency has been tuned to be one of the fastest in the world.

That price though. I can find great mice from other gaming companies that fit my hand just fine and do a great job. Why would anybody pay so much for a palm sized piece of plastic that does only one job?
Imagine if someone tried to charge you £120 for a cell phone that could only make calls, had no internet access, no camera, no music or video playback. You'd say "wtf this nokia 2110 is only worth £10, pull the other one mate."

Why is the Wireless version cheaper than the wired version? This makes no sense to me...
Wireless here in the UK is £83.99 and the Wired verison is £124.99
WTF? O_o
Nope this is probably the first ever Razer mouse I have actually been interested in. I hate ambidextrous mice, cause I am right handed those mice just feel weird to me to use as I am so used to right handed style.

Coming from the experience of a Mamba, stay away. Bad plastics, shoddy wheel, and horrible support lie ahead.

I wish it had more buttons. Once you get used to having a mouse with a lot of buttons it's tough to go back to not having them. I don't need 50 functions assigned to my left hand but only 5 buttons and a wheel assigned to my right.
