Razer Naga Chroma

Actually my favorite out of the Razer Naga line. I've tried Razer Naga special edition, as well as Razer Naga Epic Chroma, and now this. The DPI settings are a nice added bonus. Not to mention I would get frustrated with the wired/wireless settings of the Epic Chroma, since it was rather annoying to interchange (wanting to restart, as well as needing a couple seconds to re-calibrate / re-sync if you didn't restart. So it being wired completely is a nice change, since IMHO wireless mice are garbage for gaming at all. The main complaint I have about any of these three mice isn't with the mice themselves, but the software. It tends to glitch out once in a while and you need to close razer synpase and reboot it to get your mouse configuration back in working order. Also my only complaint about this mouse specifically is that the side buttons are set to your 1 - = keys instead of your number pad, and there's no option that I've found to switch it outside of rewriting all the keys in the software unlike the other mice. Other than that, it's comfortable, great lighting, nice DPI settings, and the buttons are easy to press, but not so easy you'll hit them by accident, I would definitely buy this product again. P.S. It also runs great on the Razer Firefly mouse mat. Which I would highly recommend looking into: Razer Firefly - Hard Gaming Mouse Mat with Chroma Custom Lighting - Mouse Pad Preferred by Pro Gamers

I've been using Razer products since they became a thing ages ago. I needed a new mouse because my last one kicked the bucket, so I decided to stick with the Naga because of the muscle memory I've developed with it over a decade of MMOs, rather than switching to one of the other brands with a button grid. The Naga Chroma seems like a solid build and I'm very happy with it so far (I previously had the older version). It does what I need at a moderate price. However, Razer products have historically had short lifespans. I've been through at least six of the Naga series mice since I began buying them. Usually their scroll wheel begins skipping or sticking after awhile. I've had some develop double-clicking on the mouse buttons. I had one completely brick from a firmware update. Only time will tell if this one will hold up well. In my experience they usually last through about a year of heavy usage (8+ hours a day), which I feel is pretty good. If you want a nice, relatively cheap gaming mouse with a ton of customizable buttons, this is the way to go. If you want a gaming mouse that will last years and years, use caution and don't expect much. Razer may have upped their game since my last purchase, but I'll believe it when I see it. Fingers crossed!

Very pleased. Razer never fails to deliver on the high end. I am only 2 days in but I will update this review as things go accordingly. I bought this mouse to replace my everyday one. I needed something I could use for shooters MMOs and pretty much any game under the sun. I am not disappointed in the comfort, utility and style this mouse has to offer. I have to admit, I didn't think I would use the chroma function but I spent an hour making color presets, it's really a wonderful feature. I have used it in SWTOR and so far it's AMAZING to eliminate the annoying keyboard numbers. If you have never used an MMO mouse and you get this one, be patient with it, the key switches are really responsive and are positioned in such a good way to learn them very easily by memory. As of now I am still looking down from time to time and looking to make sure I press the right number. As for shooters, I played CSGO and MGS5 and I noticed the sensor is very accurate and shows no acceleration. Do not worry about pressing the buttons accidentally, I have a heavy hand and it takes a very comfortable amount of force to make a key press. The ergonomics also focus more on your pinkie doing most of the liftoff, the very rubberized grip makes sure there is minimal weight bearing on your thumb so you can use it all for you key presses. This is a highly regarded mouse and now I see why.

This will be a long one so buckle up. So I've been a Razer fan for years. Loyally followed them as a gamer from everything to RTS (Starcraft 2, upper gold on NA) to MOBAs (League of Legends, Gold 1 for 3 seasons close to Plat) to MMORPGs (World of Warcraft, pushing Mythic AOTC achievements) so I am, by no small stretch, a very heavy and dedicated user. I'm also a digital artist who does advertizing with a lot of work in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign so I spend roughly 6-12 hours at my computer daily. But I also take care of my stuff. I don't throw is around, slam it on the table, grab it too tight, bind up the cord, yank it out or anything else. So enough about me. The pros. I'm 6'3" and I have large hands. The Naga feels incredibly good in my hand even after extended use. No cramps, awkward numbness in my pinky. All the buttons are easy to reach, discernible from one another, responsive and durable. I have loved using a Naga for many years and it has and will be my go to mouse for quite a while assuming Razer doesn't make any major changes to the design. The cons. After 6 months of current use on my current mouse it becomes randomly unresponsive. And this is not a one-of kind of problem, I have owned in total 3 Nagas and each one between 4-8 months starts tracking (sensing lateral movements on my mouse pad) poorly. Randomly it will stop tracking completely for anywhere between 4 seconds and 15. Which is REALLY bad. I am a heavy user but by no means should it be THIS bad. Now, to Razer's credit, I have never had an issue returning a mouse to get a new one. I keep track of my receipts, take care of my stuff and am polite with support. If I did have issues this review would have been 3 stars. Side con. This mouse NEAR requires (you can still use it without but at MUCH reduced functionality) Razer's proprietary program, Synapse. It allows you to set up custom commands (macros, ex. copy a block of text and paste it 5 times in the span of half a second to complex actions involving 10 different keys in order with times hundredth of a second delays and screen coordinate positions) lighting patterns, surface texture sensitivity and different profiles (think how a couple of different heights keep the driver seat but on a mouse) and they recently revamped the program so it's both extremely slow and unresponsive on older machines (I travel so I'm on a laptop a lot) and uses up quite a bit of system resources. Now in conclusion. If you want a gaming mouse this is a good option. There are better choices and there are much worse ones. If the tracking issues were fixed this mouse would EASILY be 5 stars. I would not have bought 3 separate ones over just as many years (one got lost in moving another was a gift that they got a second one of) if it was bad. As I'm writing this I'm also going to start a request to get this one replaced. But if the possibility of this doesn't bother you much and you want a capable and robust mouse I'd highly recommend this OR the Corsair Scimitar. To be honest I chose the Naga over the Scimitar because I'm very OCD with my computer set up and my peripherals NEED to match and Corsair's headphones have horrendous sound quality as well as some features in keyboards I lean towards the Blackwidow Chroma V2 over the K95.

So here is the thing, if you are a gamer you know what "clickers" are in reference to playing MMO's. If not, they are people that click the ability or spells on their toolbar which can become annoying to hear and also slows their reaction time down. I was a clicker before this mouse. I bought this because a friend told me it would change gaming for me and he was absolutely right. I have been playing MMOs since Everquest was brand new. Not only did this increase my reaction time with my abilities but it has more customization than I ever thought possible. You can change the pattern type of the light, the color, and you can customize all of the buttons to whatever you would like them to be. Want the side number 5 key to be V, done. Instead of using your left hand for WASD you want to play a game solely with your right? Done and done within 30 seconds. You can even have the lights shut off when your screen turns off! I have read a lot of reviews about a lot of different mice our there, but honestly I would recommend this to any gamer that wants to play any sort of fast paced game. I wouldn't recommend it to people that play Facebook games, there are much cheaper mice than this for games like that. Hope this helps.

Overview: I just purchased the naga chroma after 3 years of owning a regular naga from 2014 (right after they changed the body type). I played a variety of games including WoW, SWTOR, League of Legends, and Overwatch. I enjoy using the buttons for various things such as items in MOBAs and MMOs, melees and crouches in shooters, and even become comfortable placing my main rotation abilities on the keys for MMOs. The naga has become my favorite mouse due to its form factor and button feel. Price: The price is good compared to other mice of this caliber. I did not believe the wireless mouse was worth the purchase as it has the large receiver/charger combo and okay battery life. Software and Chroma: The software is fine, being able to remap keys to essentially any keyboard button, which you may have to do if you are using the numbers on your keyboard for different functions. You can also adjust your DPI. It does not take up too much memory. The chroma options leave a bit to be desired, but is still nice. The keypad's color is not controlled per key but altogether, and the options are not quite as diverse as with the blackwidow keyboard. Grip: The naga has a wide set grip that I favor to any mouse I have tried. I would not say I have particularly large hands but it is possible you may run into issues if you have much smaller hands. My pinky fingers have a strange bend in them making it harder to grip. For this reason, when using mice such as the logitech G602 which bend inward to the right of the right button my pinky finger tends to drag on the mouse pad. The naga has two ridges each giving plenty of space to grip with your ring and pinky finger. I typically use a fingertip grip but find claw and palm to be just as comfortable. The only improvement I would add would be fingertip contours similar to the deathadder (which is a grip I also enjoy). Logitech G602 Gaming Wireless Mouse with 250 Hour Battery Life Razer DeathAdder Chroma - Multi-Color Ergonomic Gaming Mouse - 10,000 DPI Sensor - Comfortable Grip - World's Most Popular Gaming Mouse Keypad Mice Comparison: Corsair and Logitech have similar mice, but I have felt these mice in various stores and the buttons just do not feel quite as good. The buttons on the naga feel tighter, with a more linear click, which is what ultimately makes me believe the naga is the more superior of the three. The button layouts for the three are a matter of preference. The logitech grid makes it much easier to tell the buttons apart, but more difficult to move around, while the corsair buttons are not raised at all. The naga has a nice balance of ease of movement and button distinction. I had a few misclicks at first, but it only took me about a week to learn the contours of the keypad. Corsair Gaming SCIMITAR RGB MOBA/MMO Gaming Mouse, Key Slider Mechanical Buttons, 12000 DPI, Yellow Logitech G600 MMO Gaming Mouse, Black Longevity: I can't speak for the longevity of the naga chroma, but my past naga went 3 years before the scroll wheel began flicking. I did not encounter the double click issue which many users report, but typically I believe razer products may not last quite as long as other brands.

I thought, after using a regular Razer Naga from a friend, that I had found my match. The mouse just had the perfect ergonomics for me. And after looking at countless mixed reviews about the Naga, I was excited to hear about the new Chroma Edition, as it would go in nicely with my setup. It's been around 6 months, and I will now share my experience with you. Pros: -Great Shape (Length and Height) -Good Sensor (When Working) -Defined Clicks on Side and DPI Buttons Cons: -Faulty LEDs, broke within 2 months, and can hear rattle in the mouse -Left and Right Clicks seem to get looser as time goes by, which was a plus for me, but not to many others. -Texture: It's like a cheap plastic, not too great... -And the most important, the faulty sensor: It worked great for around 3 months, then started to get weird. The sensor (may have been my mousepad, but when tried on different mousepads, it had the same issue) started to disconnect for around 5-10 seconds mid-game and while web browsing. I tried multiple things, such as cleaning with a Q Tip, Recalibrating in Software (Multiple Times), Resetting mouse, Changing Liftoff Distance, but it is still a continuous issue with the mouse. May have been just me, but reading other reviews, it seems to be a common issue. Conclusion (For those who don't want to read an essay): The shape and button quality was great, but after time, there were many faulty issues like the sensor and the LEDs, and I would not recommend to others. You might be better off going for a different company. Razer is for the looks, not the quality. Thanks for reading my Honest Review :D

Hello there. I am a Naga 2012 user. Back when Swifty was handing them out left and right. I loved that mouse. The curvature in the left click button, the satisfying scroll wheel, the weight of the mouse and the feel of the button pad on the side. I used that mouse for years until it wore out from wear and tear. I tried buying another immediately afterwards. It felt cheap, light, with cheap switches and didn’t sit well in my hand. I was disappointed so I swapped to the Corsair which satisfied me until now. The Corsair died a few days back and I though I would give Razer one more chance to impress me with a mouse. Surely by 2018 they had taken the naga back to the drawing board and improved it. Well, they have. The Chroma reminds me of the 2012 edition with slight contouring and general feel, but has a few differences - most notably the scroll wheel and the side pad. Each side pad button has unique ridges which helps when feeling for which key you want. The wheel is slightly lighter than before but maintains a similar feel to the older model. All in all good work Razer, I might have to glance at Razer products again when looking for PC accessories.
