Greater than one weekAs a disclaimer I am not using it for games. Comfortable mouse although a bit small, but i guess thats the point of it being a mobile mouse and all. Battery life is insane, i havent had to charge it for 3 months now. My usage pattern is about 36 hours a week, about 12 hours of use 3 days a week. i also never turn the mouse off so im guessing it goes into a sleep mode. note i use it in bluetooth mode so it might be different for 2.4 ghz mode. theres a small button below the scroll wheel to change the sensitivity, thats convenient. another good convenience is the back and forward button on the left side. I just wish there was a dedicated programmable button, or dedicated double click button. The signal seems a bit weak but generally good, i had to plug my bluetooth adapter into the front of my desktop instead of the back but that could be an issue with the adapter. you can either use bluetooth to connect or 2.4 ghz signal with an included adapter that is contained within the mouse. you have to peel off the top to access it, and if you arent using it you can store it there. on my desktop the bluetooth seemed to have better signal but both bluetooth and 2.4 mode were both good. its pretty light altho noticeably weighed down a bit by the battery.

> 3 dayIve tried to love this mouse but it leave a room to be filled. this is definitely not a gaming mouse, it lags a bit and way to slow for anytime of gaming. I like that the 2.4 dongle can be stored in the mouse itself so it less likely to be lost. but whether you use it in bluetooth or 2.4 mode there is a noticeable lag. also the mouse goes to sleep by itself and takes maybe 1-2 seconds to wake up which I find extremely annoying. Anyway I was expecting more from Razer. this isnt a big improvement from the older version the orochi hopefully the next one will be the one.

> 3 dayUPDATE: Jul 8 2020 Changing back to 5 stars from 4, I did try the previous mouse with brand new batteries and seems ok. Hard to tell what happened, will keep using and see if the issue still happens. UPDATE: Jun 21 2020 I still think that the mouse is fantastic and way beyond excellent than MX Anywhere 2s. I will have to echo what a 2-star review said: Only lasted three months. It worked perfectly until I hit the 3-month mark. At that point it just died. Stopped tracking. Changed the batteries twice. Now, it just randomly stops. Ill pull the batteries out, put them back in, unplug the receiver, plug it back in. It will work fine for about 15 minutes and then freeze. Lather, rinse, rep That is exactly what is happening to me, bought another one brand new and everything seems fine, if use the older one bought few months ago it would work for about 15 - 20 min and then stops moving on the screen, then reconnects again, etc SUPER SUPER frustrating. Thinking that an OS update went horribly wrong and messed up the drivers had to reinstall the OS and tools to find out that issues was still there. This is when I purchased the second mouse and all is well now. This means I have hopefully a few months before it goes dead. This is an extremely well tracking mouse and ergonomically perfect, I even dropped the use of high perming Logitech G305 in favor of this one. Hopefully razed keeps this formula exactly as is just workout the bugs. Im ok paying higher price if this is rock solid reliability like the logitech is. Removed 1 star for this to bring attention, other than that this is an extremely top notch mouse - when it works. Sadness creeps in to see this model die because of not listening to customers. ORIGINAL: Feb 4, 2020: FANTASTIC ! Way better than the Logitech MX Anywhere 2S both in precision, DPI adjustments and feel better in hand as well but that can be a subjective thing. The critical tech wise is it miles better than the 2S, precision, DPI adjustments accross platforms and OSes. For logitech there is some software to be installed to barely tune the DPI - which requires mac or windows.

> 3 dayI have small hands and this is just perfect! Gaming wise, it is more than good enough for me in terms of sensitivity— I am a noob & light player. :) All in all, I love the size & fit to my hand when I’m using it!

> 3 dayThe laser is perfectly centered on the mouse, how all laser mice should be. Perfect size for travel with a laptop. Smaller than your typical mouse without feeling unfamiliar. It’s got Bluetooth so you don’t have to take up a usb port. It takes batteries, so you don’t have to worry about charging it and the built in battery dying over time. This mouse will last as long as I take care of it and the left click eventually wears out. I would pay double this price, I was actually surprised at how cheap it is, considering it checks all the boxes and has no real downsides.

> 3 dayThis is basically a glorified travel mouse. It works well, good functionality, but its too small to be a gaming mouse. Thats fine, Ill use it for work.

> 3 dayLove this mouse. Love the feel, battery life, and performance. Dont listen to the 1-star reviews on here. As far as I can tell this was only from the bluetooth feature being wonky. Ive had mine for 2 years and never needed to use the bluetooth feature once. Im not even sure why you would need it as the 2.4 works perfectly and barely drains the battery. I believe the bluetooth adds an extra feature of being able to use it on a phone that doesnt have a usb port. This is a handy feature but certainly not a necessity. Amazing mouse. If mine ever breaks (probably not for a long time) Ill happily buy another.

> 3 dayIve had a couple other Razer mice, and this is by far my favorite. Good weight, comfortable to hold (if you use a claw grip), amazing responsiveness, and incredibly long battery life. I havent needed to change the batteries in the year that Ive had it.

> 3 dayIn Bluetooth mode, this is a pretty solid little mouse (assuming youre right-handed), but I found the 2.4GHz mode to be basically unusable. The mouse includes a pre-paired 2.4GHz transceiver, but with the mouse not more than 5 feet away from the computer, movement tracking was very sporadic. If I move the mouse in one direction at a constant speed, the mouse cursor stops periodically as if the computers temporarily lost communication with the mouse. This is even more noticeable (and problematic) in 3D games, where navigating your character or the camera with the mouse results in the character/camera lurching in unexpected directions with every other mouse movement. So, just always use the thing in Bluetooth mode, right? Well that only works if your computer is Bluetooth-equipped. I wanted to use this mouse with a desktop that lacks onboard Bluetooth. In order to use the mouse I had to buy a USB Bluetooth adapter (I picked up this one:

> 3 dayIt’s a great gaming mouse for people with tiny hands. For reference my hand from wrist to top of middle finger is somewhere between 5.75 and 6 inches.
