Razer Deathadder Chroma owners - quick Q

McBain · 6 Oct 2017 at 09:49

Hi all,

I just bought a Razer Deathadder Chroma which arrived today but the mouse wheel feels very loose, it has quite a bit of movement left and right and it actually rattles which is a tad annoying when using it.

The lighting also seems to dim when the mouse is lifted up, which worries me about how robust it's going to be in the future. I was wondering if owners of the mouse can please let me know if theirs is similar? I would assume not, but don't want to go down the route of a replacement if it's just the way it is...

Thanks
Aaron

razer produces crap as cheaply as possible, when I bought my chroma left click started double clickking in a few months on 3 new mice ( warranty replacements ), after that I chucked the mouse in the bin, and will never buy anything razer again, vote with your dollar and avoid cheap crap like razer.

I tried to get used to it but it's really annoying, it makes a crazy noise when moving the wheel, or just moving the mouse so it's getting returned, I find it hard to believe every Chroma mouse is built like that. Very poor.

I have one of these and wouldn't buy another, feels cheap and the wheel click sometimes doesn't work, it's only around 18 months old too.

I would be tempted to send it back for a replacement.

Mine is fine with no rattle and does not dim when lifted.

Thanks all, it's going back for sure. If that's how they all are it would be unacceptable but I just believe it's a dud, as above very poor build quality.
