The Razer Viper line is well recognized for its ultra lightweight FPS-first design, and at first glance the new Razer Viper V3 Hyperspeed is a departure from this tried and tested form factor. The lower $69.99 / £69.99 price tag, larger body, and AA battery power sit inline with one of the brand's more budget-friendly releases - and yet we don't have a Razer Viper V3 or Pro model to compare it to. There could be bigger changes coming to this line in the next few months, then, but for now we've got a particularly cost effective rodent in our hands.
Cheap or not, this new release has some big boots to fill. The Razer Viper V2 Pro is the best gaming mouse we've tested so far. That's $150 / £150 down the price scale, though, so I spent four weeks seeing exactly what $70 / £70 gets you in Razer's next generation.
