Razer Mice usually last


I got a Razer DeathAdder Essential for $15 a few weeks ago. I've been using it as my daily productivity mouse and I can say that this is easily the best mouse I've ever used in my life. This is the first gaming mouse I've owned and I'm very impressed by its performance. That being said, I plan to use this as my daily mouse for all my computer-related tasks in school and during my free time.

My computer is a MacBook Air and I prefer to use the DeathAdder instead of the trackpad. I'm pretty old-school in the sense that I prefer to use mice over laptop trackpads for day-to-day use. Anyway, I don't intend to use the DeathAdder for gaming (at least for now). I'll probably only use it for daily computer work in school such as Excel, Word, as well as for browsing on sites such as Google, Youtube, and Netflix. Aside from this, I also plan to use the DeathAdder for basic graphic design projects on Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.

So yeah, how long do you think omeglz my mouse will last if I only use it as my daily mouse for school and for some graphic design projects?

It's hard to predict how long it'll last. It also depends how much care you take about it.
The 1st thing that will fail is the mouse switch, but it's easy and cheap to repair.
For eg. my 1st original DeathAdder 1800DPI lasted 7 years of use, Viper Mini about year (faulty scroll switch, but RMA'ed and got brand new, flawless unit).

Mine took solid 2+ years until right and left click get loosen
