Razer releases Viper V3 Pro gaming mouse with 8,000 Hz wireless polling rate for $159.99

Razer just launched its latest esports wireless mouse, the Viper V3 Pro. Weighing in at just 54 grams (55 grams for the white version), it features a revised right-handed symmetrical shape that debuted last year with the HyperSpeed edition.

The Viper V3 Pro ships with the company's brand-new Focus Pro 35K Gen 2 optical sensor with support for single-step DPI adjustments. Moreover, there's a new "Sensitivity Matcher" feature, which, as the name suggests, allows you to port over the exact sensitivity of your old mouse (taking into account DPI deviation).

Razer is now also including the HyperPolling wireless dongle in the box, meaning that users can utilize the mouse's maximum 8,000 Hz polling rate without any extra purchases.

The company is advertising up to 95 hours of battery life at 1,000 Hz, although that figure drops down to just 17 hours when set to 8,000 Hz. Other features include Razer's third-gen optical microswitches on the main mouse buttons, larger PTFE skates, and an improved smooth-touch coating.

The Razer Viper V3 Pro is available starting today for $159.99/€179.99/£159.99 on Razer's webstore and Amazon in black and white colorways.
