This article introduces Razer's Cobra series gaming mouse that will be released in July 2023!
There are both wireless and wired types, and the wireless type Cobra Pro can also be charged wirelessly. The wired type can be purchased for as low as 6,000 yen.
Please read until the end as we have summarized the features of Cobra.
Wired type Razer Cobra
Symmetrical right-handed
The shape is symmetrical, and the side buttons are on the left side, making it a right-handed gaming mouse.
I think the simple shape makes it easy to hold without any quirks.
Wired connection using Speedflex cable
Cobra uses Razer's Speedflex cable. This Speedflex has the characteristic of less dragging sensation, so you can use it without worrying about cables than a regular wired mouse.
Also good to use with Razer Mouse Bungee V3 Chroma
A product called Razer Mouse Bungee V3 Chroma is also available. By placing the mouse cable on this mouse bungee, you can avoid situations where the cable gets in the way and makes it difficult to move the mouse.
The base is also made of rubber, making it difficult to move and providing stability, so you can use it with confidence. Furthermore, it also supports RGB lighting, so it is recommended for those who like RGB lighting typical of gaming products.
The price on the official website is approximately 5,000 yen.

It weighs 58g, which is quite light.
The weight is 58g, which is quite light. A lightweight mouse has the advantage that your arms and hands won't get tired even when playing games for long periods of time. It also allows you to move the mouse quickly with less force.
A lightweight mouse like this is recommended for people who play games that require intense mouse movement, such as FPS. On the other hand, for people who play games such as MMOs, heavier mice with lots of side buttons are popular.
*58g is the weight of the main unit only and does not include the weight of the cable, so it would be around 60g with the cable inserted.
Equipped with 6 customizable buttons
There are six buttons in total, and you can customize them using Razer Synapse software.
Although six is a small number, it has the advantage of making it harder to press the wrong button. If there are a large number of side buttons, it's easy to make mistakes by pressing the wrong button, or by touching the button with your finger and pressing it even when you didn't mean to press it.
It is said that games such as FPS do not need that many side buttons, so it is recommended to use it in games where there are no problems with fewer side buttons.
Adopts an optical mouse switch with a response time of 0.2ms
The button switches use Razer's 3rd generation optical switches.
This optical switch is durable enough to withstand 90 million clicks and has a response time of just 0.2ms.
This switch is useful even in games where speed is important.
Maximum DPI is 8,500
The maximum DPI is 8,500, which is not that high. It may not be suitable for people who want to use ultra-high DPI.
If you want to make adjustments, you can make adjustments in increments of 50 DPI, so you can make relatively fine adjustments.
By the way, DPI refers to mouse sensitivity, and you can also use it by switching the DPI according to each game, or by setting only one DPI and adjusting the sensitivity in the in-game settings.
Official price is 5,980 yen
The price at Razer's official store is 5,980 yen. Since it is a wired type, the price is quite low.
I think the good things about Cobra are that it is light in weight, uses cables that are easy to move, and is cheap.

Wireless type Razer Cobra Pro
Symmetrical right-handed
The shape is symmetrical like the wired type, and the side buttons are on the left side, making it a right-handed gaming mouse.
Connectable via 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth and wired
Cobra Pro's wireless connection methods include 2.4GHz wireless (Razer Hyperspeed Wireless) and Bluetooth, as well as wired connection.
In the case of 2.4GHz wireless, it uses a USB dongle for high-speed communication, so it can be used with less delay than Bluetooth. You can also connect Razer's wireless keyboard and this mouse with a single dongle, eliminating the need to use more USB ports than necessary.
Battery life varies depending on connection method
Many gaming mice support 2.4GHz wireless connectivity to reduce delays, but the disadvantage is that the battery life is shorter than that of Bluetooth.
The Cobra Pro's battery life is 100 hours with 2.4GHz wireless and 170 hours with Bluetooth, a difference of 70 hours.
If charging is a hassle and you want to make the battery last longer, you may want to switch the connection method depending on the situation.
Easy to charge with wireless charging
Cobra Pro supports wireless charging and can be charged by simply placing it on Razer's Mouse Dock Pro. You don't have to plug the cable into the mouse every time you put it on, so you can just put it on your dog and it will charge automatically even when you're taking a short break.
The Mouse Dock Pro can also be used in place of a dongle and connects at a higher than normal 4,000Hz polling rate, further reducing latency.
However, the price is about 10,000 yen, so if you don't have to worry about charging that much, I don't think you need to buy it.

Average weight: 77g
The weight of the main unit alone is 77g. I think 77g is an average weight among gaming mice.
Some ultra-light mice weigh about 50g, so it's heavier than that, but it's not a problem as this weight is normal.
8 customizable buttons
There are 8 buttons that can be customized, which is more than the wireless type.
I don't think it makes much sense since the number of side buttons hasn't changed. This is also recommended for games such as FPS, but on the contrary, it is not recommended for games such as MMO.
Adopts an optical mouse switch with a response time of 0.2ms
Like the wired type, the switch uses Razer's 3rd generation optical switch.
The maximum DPI is 30,00 which is quite high.
Unlike the wired type, the wireless type has a DPI of up to 30,000.
I don't think many people would set the DPI to 30,000, but it would be better to have a wider range of settings.
Official price is 20,480 yen
The selling price at Razer official store is 20,480 yen. It is more than three times the price of the wired type.
I think 2.4GHz wireless, RGB lighting, wireless charging function, etc. are the reasons why the price is high. There is no doubt that it has high performance, so if you are interested, please buy it.
