Razer Copperhead Tempest Review

[devilmaybelaugh]

omg on the picture i thought it's small...now i see as big as deathadder

[akinn97]

i got mine for 25.00 :P

[Toodlem]

Thanks for an articulate and comprehensive review. I just bought a Copperhead after my wireless intellimouse quit on me. I think it's going to take a while to adjust to the new mouse, but once the adjustment is made, I think I'll wonder how I ever got by without it. I just wish I could have scored a blue one but settled for red. After seeing your review, I'm really psyched and can't wait till it arrives.

[UploaderA]

copperhead is sexy

[henrydamaster]

the blue looks brighter than mine:(

[Ne0nLiteZ]

can this mouse move diagonally without skipping like the deathadder does?

[CriticalGamingCG]

It's not the mouse thats skipping its your computer (numnut)

[Ne0nLiteZ]

@CriticalGamingCG actualy its not i tried it on different computers (ignorantfaggot)

[CriticalGamingCG]

Im a ignorant faggot the whole numnut was a joke but you have no life if you spend your time dissing on other people on the damn internet... ( XD JK )

Anyway... maybe the mouse you have is deffective?

[Ne0nLiteZ]

@CriticalGamingCG you dissed me too bud. and it only did this on my mouse pad for some reason but it stopped jerking when i used it on my plain wood desk. weird a mouse doesnt work on a mousepad.

[CriticalGamingCG]

Ya my mouse skipped on a mousepad but I did the same thing but it's not doing that anymore P:P

[henrydamaster]

@Ne0nLiteZ wat u mean by skipping? if u mean by tipping over to side then no

[joachimekstrom]

i've seen on a couple of pictures that its translucent plastic glass on the mouse, can i take away the black plastic shit and then i can see that it's translucent plastic?

[THECRIME87]

i had quiet few of mouses and the first mouse i have a problem is the FUCKING RAZER COPPERHEAD!

[eXs7azZy]

i bought a Death Adder yesterday but its not comfortable because i use a "claw" gripping style.

So is the CopperHead comfortable for a "claw" gripping style ?

[P3nk0]

@eXs7azZy it's made for clawers dude :D

[nikanj]

This doesn't have to be for gaming. I used to use a MX Revolution for work but when I bought one of these for my home PC it was so smooth and responsive I bought another one for work.

It looks a little silly but when it comes to feel the MX Revolution doesn't compare. The Logitech just looks good and has a lot of buttons. The Razer is actually a great mouse to use.

[devo85x]

i liked my copperhead, but i ended up selling it to a friend and buying a microsoft sidewinder because the copperhead was so small...

[qwertygustaf]

under my razer mouse theres not a laser that you can see, but i can see your blue laser under! so.. i wonder if its wrong? :S

please respond!!

[VFVhho]

u cant see it with the naked eye, but the camera lince can see it.

[JamesProduction0]

because he cant se it to only with a videocamera u can se it go look with your mobile u will se it.

[Curt1Tyrell]

does any 1 want to swap a razercopper head for deathadder thanks

[newkie2008]

i hope max112112112 is a kid because if he is a adult that will be such a epic fail

[Bolekano13]

chaos green ftw

[Shorty20122012]

do you have to slightly lift the mouse to hit the 2 side buttons on the left side if you're using your right hand with the mouse?

[bloodsythesharp]

Please reply me the lift off distance of the Razer Copperhead!!!

[windgod2000]

around 5mm-6mm

[SyProductions]

I got this mouse coz I really think it looks cool LOL. But well yeah it does serve it's purpose.

Good review, better than most half-assed done.

[DryWhiskey]

that mousepad pisses me off!

[vonaffiaknuff]

Can some 1 help me?! i got 1 problem when i going to do my settnings on my mouse it says when i press apply: no mouse detected. press okay to scan USB port agin or cancel to continue. (no settnings will be saved)

It allways say so can some 1 help? :(

[Harkz0r]

Instead of getting a Copperhead nowadays I would recommend a Diamondback 3G instead, which uses the same amazing optical sensor as the DeathAdder (Laser mice skip with fast swipes, bad for low sens). I really like the low profile, easy to hold/ambidextrous design of the Razer mice - my G5 is very comfortable to hold, but when swiping a lot with a low sens, is awkward to grip and makes my hand cramped up... but the Copperhead is just lightweight and smooth in all respects.

[Ambid3x]

Very good review. It answered all of my questions.

Also, I'm getting a Razer Copperhead (Tempest Blue) for Christmas! :)

[Neutral666]

whats the difference with razer diamondback and copperhead? they look pretty much the same

[legi0naire]

Higher DPI only makes lower senetivetly more then normal, so any DPI above 1500/1800 is just marketing.

I got a Deathadder i am loving it.

[seyhank93]

lol theres a full version of this review?

[Kilenz94]

written review

[kyleknaus]

now all ya need is the lycosa keyboard and the piranha headset!

[cybersnipa445]

i got razer barracuda soundcard and headset :)

[kyleknaus]

"wash your hands" ahhaahah hecka funny.this better than deathadder?2000 instead of 1800

[Dniffla]

Yes Bobokun,this mouse is perfect for any kind of sensivity and usage.

[spinnerweb72]

i bought one and there brillant mouse to use quick and reliable i have the green version bro with razor exactx control mat

[Bobokun]

Hey would you say this mouse is good for low sensitivity gamers? :S Cuz i play everything on very low sensitivity. Would that still be fine? =]

[evildwarf]

You know what they say about guys with big hands?

[DARKSTAR13SPENCER]

u have a gaming grade mouse and then i see the crappy key board lol

[r4na]

vengaaaaaaaa xDDDD le falta un abujerillo pa k se la metas al raton eso es lo k pretendes decirme no? xDDDDD

[GamesGear]

Ofc g5 and il tell u why the razer copperhead is very light and its very hard to aim with an light mouse if u want an great mouse choose the g5 he got the fabouls weigth system more progamble buttons mean to the editon 2 strong lazer eginge much more then the razer oh and anohter great gameing mouse its the habu gameing mouse read about him also ye its razer but also with the microsoft hardwares

[ChonKrispyLA]

would this mouse last for years

[NGT2O6]

why would you keep the same mouse for years? ;D are u poor? haha :D

[bass6352]

should i get this or a g5

[jngtigmsmff]

g5  by far

[madmanminiclips]

razer

[jonnypui]

@madmanminiclips Random...

[SwordMasterz2]

you should get the copperhead, ive tried all the other razer mice and the g5, and i like razer better

[pahoresyavash]

man the g5's weight system is uselss and it looks kinda fat and not very good looking. This on the otherhand looks cool and is a great mouse. Read the reviews of the copperhead on google and see for urself. This mouse rocks and me gonna buy it!

[max112112112]

you should also take a look at few better mice:

-NZXT Avatar (ranked on worlds second best mouse)

-Roccat Kone (pretty new, no ranking yet)

-Razer Deathadder (rank 1, but I personally think that even copperhead is better...)

[pahoresyavash]

What do u mean better?

I got the Lachesis.

It is the most advanced mouse in the world after the mamba at 4000dpi.

[max112112112]

lol? I see you know nothing about gaming mice... The dpi does not tell you nothing, I don't know any great gamer who uses over 1800dpi, and if you care about dpi, buy "Logitech G9x"(new G9), it has 5000dpi

But anyways, the dpi means nothing! The feel, and buttons mean more than dpi... you have alot to learn about gaming mice

[pahoresyavash]

DOnt tell me that crap that no gamer uses above 1800dpi. I use 400dpi.

And anyway the lachesis has 9 buttons. It fulfills my needs very well so SHUTUP.

[max112112112]

400dpi? you mean 4000 dpi? and btw i said: I don't know any "!!great!!" gamer who uses over 1800dpi. and your not great gamer. Also buttons on the other side (if your right handed, the buttons on right) are really hard to use, and its no use.

So SHUTUP.

[pahoresyavash]

MAn i dont know wht u talking abt.

I am right handed and I can user all the buttons easily. AND I have seen plenty of great gamers who definetly use more than 1800dpi.

[max112112112]

You really are noob... "wow" you've seen great gamers who definetly use mroe than 1800dpi? How do you know? And what game? Quake?

Well maybe someone uses 2400... But no one uses like 3200, cause its just useless! between 1200 and 1800, there is big difference, but between 2400 and 3200, there is like no difference at all!

Tell me. Where do you need over 1800dpi?

[pahoresyavash]

WHat about Battlefeild 2 and Counter-Strike.

I'm getting tired of all of you 12 year olds on Youtube.

Gamers can use whatever DPI they want to. What mouse is the best is based on personal preferences not on what GREAT GAMERS PLAY WITH.

AND no need to reply cause I dont have time to clear a 12year olds misconceptions.

[max112112112]

Omg.. I meant that in Quake you maybe need big dpi.. I play Cs and cod myself, and i use 1800dpi..

Also, I'm 17years old, and I'm getting tired of people like you... they just dont understand anything, and I see that you really dont know anything about gaming mice... (too long comment)

[max112112112]

(Comment continues)

"Gamers can use whatever DPI they want to. What mouse is the best is based on personal preferences not on what GREAT GAMERS PLAY WITH." well before you said that your mouse is good and it has 4000 dpi!! well i agree. Its good, but not cause of its 4000 dpi!! The dpi doesn't matter, as long as max dpi on that mouse is atleast 1800, mouse is good, so shut up already

[pahoresyavash]

just becuase u use 1800dpi doesnt mean everyone else has to.

[max112112112]

"doesnt mean everyone else has to." What the fuck are you talking about? I never said they have to, i just said that its useless, cause 1800 is enought, and everyone uses 2400 (expect noobs like you, who dont understand anything about gaming, i bet that you have a table computer) And now shut up, I won't answer your comments anymore, cause i already understood that your an idiot, who doesn't understand anything

[pahoresyavash]

thats what i mean u fool. Just beacuse its useless to you doesnt mean it is to evryone else too.

[BlocK934]

Max, you're a total retard.

Do you know what dpi does at least? (DOES NOT MEAN, DON'T COME LIKE A SMART FUCK AND SAY DOTS PER INCH)

[pahoresyavash]

ofcourse he is.

[Yougottobecreative]

CAN ANYONE TELL ME IF YOU CAN SWITCH OFF THE LIGHT ON THE SIDES OF THE MOUSE. its kind of bright and disturbing light to me :/ :( thanks!

[SwordMasterz2]

yes you can, open the driver and you can

[DARKSTAR13SPENCER]

THATS ONE OF THE BEST FEATURES

[pahoresyavash]

no ucant this feature is only available on deathaddar,lachesisis and mamba

[pahoresyavash]

no u cant unless u got the deathaddar lachesis or mamba

[evilicono]

=D dude! im lefthanded usah tho..so i am usin Razer Copperhead.its actually designed for both left+right..

[roflolmaowtf]

Hey there!!

I am a LEFT HANDED USER and i was wondering which mouse will be suitable for me..

I need a mouse in the range of 1000-2000 dpi..

I was thinking of a Death Adder BUT its design is such that it is suitable to only Right Handed users..

I guess the Copperhead, Diamondback, Death Adder, Logitech MX518 and the G5 are the best but i wanna know which one will be best for MY NEEDS... I usually play RPG's, and very little of FPS.

Thanks!

[FtKiVeR]

I am so getting this mouse :D

[pahoresyavash]

me too this mouse rocks!!!

[BiskSLO]

I have this mouse and is the best

[apetroaeicoosmyn]

razer mouse is the best in the world mouse

[razercooler]

This video motivated me to buy one... it's brilliant... the best mouse i ever had...

[TheDrunkMunk]

only chinese people have small hands

[koolaiddew]

Does this work on a Macbook pro?

[Asatiir]

I'm using it on my Mac Pro at work, works great

[koolaiddew]

thanks

[2napoleon6]

Just ordered one of these bambinos, can't wait!

(who knew you could speak for 15 mins straight about a mouse! :O)

[flamingbullets]

i just got mine, but you know the buttons on the side, i realy dont know where i have to get my hands on it!, i always press the site buttons in when i want to hold on the mouse, but where you need to have you fingers? on the light on the site or what!, i think that my hands is to big to get in the side, but im just 14 old, so i should could!.. but, if you know what css is, so what is good to have the mouse dpi on?, and the mouse sense in the game:)? ty!

[lolkid94]

NEWEGG FTW

[XxSoberxX]

hey man whats better.. Razer Copperhead or Razer Diamondback 3G?? reply please because i need a new mouse soon!

[Zejex15]

Copperhead, 2000 dpi. DB: 1800 dpi. CH got more light, the DB doenst got so much light at the sides, it just look like at the pictures on therazerstore. CH got a light in the razer symbol, that pulsates. DB = 49 eu. CH 69 eu.

[Odinn08]

Ok hey i got a question, i got a logitec G5 mouse and im thinking of getting a new mouse. So my choices are Razor Copperhead or a Logitech G9 mouse, i play counter-strike and lots of online shooting games and often for house to come... so im looking for a accurate mouse that has alot of grip but also is comfortable. BTW im using a steelseries QcK mousepad

[Boerseun303]

great review thanks man

[forgen88]

how long is the cable?

[connor8001]

7 Feet

[historywillabsolve]

it looks nice but i dont think it would fit my hand. i always have a problem w/ mice that have a low profile

[vlaho565]

I got the same mice.

[injn0719]

razer mice are like the best at looks while the microsoft intellimouse 3.0 is the one with the highest FPS of 9000. razer has around 7000

[flamingbullets]

what mouse is best: razer deathadder or razer copperhead?.. and what mouse isnt there problems with?

[Budsmokee]

hope this thing balls i got a green 1 on the way!!

[endr117]

i dunno what scroll sound youre talking about... I have used a lot of different cheap mouses but all they do is make a fairly quiet clicking sound.

[boboterrifico]

awesome my chaotic green razor copperhead. and my steelpad S&S are coming in the mail in 5 days

[Haze1219723433425]

iv had this mouse for like 3 months its great but the scroll wheel aint silent its rele loud. great mouse i deffinetly recomend it.

[bosoxdanc1]

I heard someone say something about weights for the mx518. Can someone link this for me?

[faberhr]

the way you change the weight on the mouse is with the razer kit you can buy(dont know where) and its around 10 dollars or smth...and then you change the weight inside of it. Btw if you open it it loses varanty so think twice before you open it. The only thing i like about g5 and that copperhead doesnt have is the weight socket which you just clip in and its more easy and simple...but overall i like the razor better..nice review btw

bit long but theral ;D

[Darkel08]

Good review, and LOL about the dell scroll sound, I had a dell mouse for years and it was the most annoying shit ever. It sounded like I was scraping metal against concrete every time I wanted to scroll.

[tlascar]

Nice Review btw...

I atm have...

Trust MI-4500X Wireless OPTICAL Mouse

NOT LASER....

and i am getting along really fine and well with it,, im really happy with this mouse workz well :) no problemz,, duno why but i just feel like buying a new mouse ROFL :S...

i might consider this one because u did such a GREAT REVIEW!!!

CHEERZ

[flojacko123]

i have same but i have green and its oowns!

[RealityBurns]

Don't get me wrong, I loved the copperhead and the diamondback would have been great if not for the driver issues(not booting, firmware updates didn't help), but spending somewhere between $120-150 for two mice that couldn't last 2 years between them? Sorry, I think I will probably being going back to buy a new logitech...

[RealityBurns]

I'm guessing right where it connects internally right at the mouse(not the usb port side of the cable). If the wire was sitting just right, it would work, but if you moved the mouse so it bent the cord at all, it would stop responding. Now I'm using my 6 year old logitech laser mouse(probably first gen). They just use cheap parts or have no quality control or something.

[RealityBurns]

I have owned two Razer mice in the last year and they are both dead. First was the Diamondback plasma edition, which lasted about six months and the left clicker died. Second was the copperhead tempest blue and that one lasted almost a year before it started cutting in and out, I thought it was my computer on the fritz so I put up with it for a while and then ended up reformatting, to no avail. Then I figured out that it was the wire,

[mntzn]

i have the same mouse, and i must say this mouse kick ass.

[g4llic]

how many times did u use the word 'extremely'?

[hellgatezz]

lol

[Cmzje]

"umm"

[hejelias]

holy cow u cam is freaky fucking laggy

[yoeeb]

did you ever have any troubles with it since you have had it over a year?

[Bobo31790]

this is so conffusing and fuckin annoying

[alienorz]

wash ur hands!!!!! lololol

[99931221]

how is it compared to the diamondback or deathadder?

[leonhartsq]

diamond back is an optical mouse

[99931221]

so copperhead is better...

[Dinkymod]

They're all optical mice. The only non-optical mouse that Razer made was it's original Boomslang ball mouse - Which was AWESOME. In fact I was lucky enough to pick up a Collector's Edition of the new Boomslang. I got number 291 out of 10,000. The best mouse ever.

[tyler7878]

g9 owns all

[MANDM72]

do the glowing tubes really sick out? or have they fixed it?

[longboardking]

damnit, i hate it wen it dosent appear under the comment u reply to but that was aimed at the chevron

[l2ebel]

todays trivia question: how many times did he say "uhm"?

seriously, dont make reviews if you can speak properly :|

mousepads matter too, time to get a new one ;)

[Ryukikun]

Let see you do an better one. He just reviewing the material of the Mouse. I don't care how well he talk only if he give me information on the products.

[gogogo111]

This was his first hardware review ever. Added Sep 26, 2006. Over 1 year ago.

[keepitridin112]

great mouse, I've just got it today! :D

you really have to get used to the sensitivty, It's crazy! ^^

[hellgatezz]

Hi, the ajust dpi is just right on the side of the mouse! I have both copperhead and G7, both is good for different situations

[thechevron]

14.51 to review a fucking mouse?

"mouse, has buttons, moves pointer on screen, has lights, feels comfy"

6 seconds done.

[longboardking]

your obviously not a gamer

[99931221]

ill own u in halo using my 4000 dpi razor lachesis btw i look forward to reviews from anyone on the lachesis (very good) and the diamond back (not bad)

[nukem858]

try out the CREATIVE Gamer HD7600L mouse... its amazing

price: 15 dollars... wow...

sensitivity: 400, 800, 1600, or even 2400 DPI... and changing them is REALLY easy... same buttons as the copper head (minus the ambidexterity, sorry lefties =[ ), plus it has a sensitivity change switch and customizable FACEPLATES :D!!!

[omarm1644]

trust me, the razer is one of the worst company for mouse ever. I buy the habu like 1 month ago and now don't work

[trojans681]

Actually it's one of the best, just because you have a fault with one of their products doesn't make it a bad company.

[chimaira6668]

Its a badass mouse

[avengance123]

ive had one for ages now, now lag cuz ive got a beasty pc so it can take it ;)

[Monokster]

the mouse is gay. why the fuck do they sell that mouse for loads of money?

its looks like a modded fucking $10 logitech mouse.

[coltezeu]

personaly i regret the day i bought this mouse because it costed me a fortune 100$ (europe)

and if i had to choose between the copperhead and any other mouse .. id choose the other mouse because i would save money!!!!! this mouse is a waste of money and fucking nervs

[coltezeu]

the best mouse ive ever played with is the g5 .. its not laggy , it responds perfectly , the cursor is fucking awesome and best of all ... it doesnt die on me!

ive compared the two with usb

the razer dies inevitabilly but the g5 is running great no dies!

the driver software isnt compatible with windows xp professional , or atleast thats what it says.

it says that if i continue with the instalation of the driver .. complications may occur that would make windows unstable or crash

[bennemann]

try updating the firmware.

[coltezeu]

third .. not before recently , it started dying on me , the lights are on but its stops responding to commands .. i have to restart the pc to make it work again ,!

i have on a steel pad qck+ AND THE CURSOR DOESNT GO WHERE YOU WANT IT IF THE WINDOWS OR THE GAME THAT YOURE RUNNING HAS pointer acceleration on .. try playing battlezone2 with this mouse ;) thrust me you wont be so happy anymore

[bennemann]

try updating the firmware.

[coltezeu]

stfu

i have this mouse for about 5 months .. its the most fucked mouse ive ever played with !

i previously had a x750f a mx518 and a g5

first of all ...if you dont have a steel pad or a plastic pad .. the cursor doesnt go where you want .. especially if you have acceleration ,

second.. the CUrsor jumps up to the top left corner of the screen wich is extremely unpleasent when youre playing counter-strike

[hpnotiq253]

i love razers but i always have the prob of them always dying i think its because of the cord on the inside but ya watch out for that

[bennemann]

try updating the firmware.

[WakaWakaWee]

I recently bought a Razer copperhead, its sooo smooth! :D But, how doo you get so intense light in the mouse, mine's so weak.. +: i don't see my laser beneath..?

[age0fchaos]

the razer is so gayy and yes the g5 is better

[caboose1320]

dude, i have a krait right now. but i'm gonna get a saitek eclipse (not eclipse II) + a tempest copperhead. its gonna be sexy.

[razzsupermccool]

This is an exellent review thank you

I also Have HUGE hands my hands are 2 times the size of my current mouse (some dell ball mouse).I will buy this mouse post haste

[sflab]

Nice review, thx for the 15 minutes...

[maximilia1]

the scollwheel is silent, but can you feel cliks?

[BubbaDingo]

who cares if its silent

my comp looks like a jet taking off why would i care abou ta click sound??

[maximilia1]

because if you got a pc that doesn't make a lot of sound, then it's important

[BubbaDingo]

my pc is SLI

so it got 4 additional coolers and they are loud as hell

[MikSane]

.....are you gay?

[JKx]

prefare the diamond back tbh

[oleedee]

G5 is better.

[itshimkevinkim]

not really g5 only has 1 side button so it isnt all that great i dont even think the weight things help much either and the G5 didnt get that high of a rating they called the weights a "useless" luxury =/

[s34mu5]

thanks for that video, just bought the mouse.

[Tonzaraj]

I got my Copperhead today :) Fulfilled all my expectations, VERY nice mouse.

[login66]

My Copper head is a peice of shit, I have a razer copper had mosue I use a Saeitek key bored USB elcipse III and I thought i might not have enough usb power or something it turns it off its self, stops in middle of games

[s34mu5]

thats not the mouses problem, thats your crappy computers USB slots. USB 1.1 aye?

[Phil006snipe]

yo man whats your x-fire got a serious question

[tehrealdjcrossfire]

hahaha wash ur hands classic lolol great mouse i got it in red =D

[SilentKiller01]

[s0nic306]
