Once the champion of all wireless gaming mice, Razer's DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed is now an absolute bargain through Cyber Monday

So, Black Friday is over but Cyber Monday is just beginning (yes, I know it's still a few days away, but it's honestly already started), and we're wading knee-deep through the flood of tech deals. As always, there's a lot of junk being sold at a low price, with retailers trying once more to clear their shelves to make room for new stuff.

I tested and reviewed the V3 HyperSpeed back in June 2024, and came away seriously impressed. Gaming mice, like lots of PC gaming gear, follow hardware trends like a tenacious terrier, with ever-higher polling rates, sensors with DPI figures bigger than the diameter of a planet, and battery lives so brief that muons from space last longer.

Not so the V3 HyperSpeed. It ignores all of that but still offers a very impressive specification list. The Razer Focus X sensor sports a maximum DPI of 26,000 and that's backed up with a peak tracking speed of 500 IPS and a top acceleration of 40 G. Not the best numbers out there, but more than good enough for the vast majority of PC gamers.

The HyperSpeed wireless dongle it uses has the same vibe, with a maximum polling rate of 1,000 Hz. You can upgrade to Razer's 8 kHz version, but all that will do is ruin the mouse's excellent battery life (100 hours), and only top-tier pro-gamers will notice the difference.

For everyone else, it's just a really good, all-round wireless gaming mouse. So good, in fact, that it was our top recommendation for the best gaming mouse for a good while, until Razer launched the DeathAdder V4 Pro. That's a glorious mouse, but it's also more than double the price of the V3 HyperSpeed.

Nick, gaming, and computers all first met in the early 1980s. After leaving university, he became a physics and IT teacher and started writing about tech in the late 1990s. That resulted in him working with MadOnion to write the help files for 3DMark and PCMark. After a short stint working at Beyond3D.com, Nick joined Futuremark (MadOnion rebranded) full-time, as editor-in-chief for its PC gaming section, YouGamers. After the site shutdown, he became an engineering and computing lecturer for many years, but missed the writing bug. Cue four years at TechSpot.com covering everything and anything to do with tech and PCs. He freely admits to being far too obsessed with GPUs and open-world grindy RPGs, but who isn't these days?
