Smells like a Mamba,scaled like a chic munk,but performs as well as others do.The Razer Orochi is the second offspring of Razer’s Hybrid mice solutions,also dubbed as the sibling of Mamba,Orochi has a whopping 4000DPI in spite it’s scaled in such compact form.In this season,we have a lot of ’snakes’ on the testbed,having more than one mouse on the desk is literally the joy of what we are craving for.
Orochi is briefly a gaming mouse designed for nomad gamers whom game with notebook computers while not having to be compromised with the limitation of tiny mouse,in this post we mean the ‘Speed’.
In regards of the specification,despite Orochi has a whopping 4000DPI tracking sensitivity,but it does only works in wired mode,unlike Mamba users may experience full speed even in wireless mode.Due to the limitation of Bluetooth technology,Orochi appears to 2000DPI in wireless mode.though it’s still acceptable for its class as we knew all the features are shrinked into the little chic munk.If you demand for more,then just plug in the wire and sprint to the maximum speed.
Looks like a pair crap’s hands…both sibling meets on a Kabuto surface.
In note for wireless,Orochi connects with a pc in less than 5 seconds without the need of additional drivers.User might want to press the 4 programmables button to activate the bluetooth pairing service.Being filled with 2 AAs battery,Orochi weights slightly heavier than it should.We are expecting for an integrated lion battery like Mamba does which is more convenient for the user.Nevertheless,Orochi doesn’t failed in gaming,it performed unprecedentedly well in tracking and clicking,the shape ergonomically fits our hand,no hands displeasure along the gameplay.
When its batman’s cover is taken off,Orochi’s nudity is infront of your sight.
The ON/OFF button is placed at the bottom of the sensor,turn on and it works on battery.
Orochi weary laid on my palm…XD
The activity led works as the indicator of battery,activity of pairing services.Splints in a tiny line!
I am sorry to have a mighty hand instead of small hand,my fingers has overlength-ed the Orochi.I shall prefer to big mouse instead in no time.
Orochi comes with an exclusive carrying pouch.User may go anywhere with the carrying pouch..everyone will notices it’s a Razer when just by showing the pouch on.
Conclusion
Razer has redefined another cutting edge product for the mobility market,this is the fastest ever gaming mouse we have seen.Despite it’s sized at rather small form,but works decently with 3G laser sensor.Nomad gamers can be delighted with the presence of gaming grade performance packed in a small chic munk.But there are indeed several improvements that could be done,for instance the battery can be replaced with a dedicated lion-cell instead.More,the placement of programmable buttons can be shifted to a single side,as user would get wrong with both sided design.Else are just very exquisitely well,we have nothing to rant for this ‘chic munk’.
In conjunction with the near coming Hari Raya,we would like to wish everyone for a Resplendent Raya! Happy Raya!Spend all the holidays with your family,try to get along with Muslim friends as we are One Malaysia,dont we?=)

Does it required batteries when in wired mode?
It is needless for batteries to work in wired mode,without the batteries,Orochi will works lighter as it should.=)
I just got a review unit of the Orochi today from Razer for a review :D Will try to play around with it before posting my review up
Wish I can try the Mamba though ><
@Michael Aulia
I guess yours would be the 2nd batch of the Orochi,which is an improved version for the battery issue.Congratulation Michael,fortunately we will be having another orochi review soon!Good luck!=)
