The DeathAdder is the most successful gaming mouse shape ever made — favored by more than 20 million players — and the V3 is its lightest, most refined wired form. This is the standard wired model, the value entry point into the DeathAdder V3 family that sits below the wireless DeathAdder V3 Pro. Same iconic right-handed ergonomic shape, refined with top esports pros, now at just 59 grams — over 25% lighter than the mouse it replaced, with no holes and no drag.
What makes the wired V3 special at this price is the polling rate: it runs a true 8000Hz natively, no separate dongle required. On the wireless Pro you'd pay extra for a HyperPolling dongle to hit those numbers — here it's built in. Pair that with Razer's Focus Pro 30K optical sensor (which tracks even on glass), Gen-3 optical switches rated for 90 million clicks with a 0.2ms actuation, and the low-drag Speedflex cable, and you have genuine flagship sensor and switch tech in a wired package.
The trade-off is the cable — this is wired only, no battery, no wireless. For a lot of players that's a feature, not a limitation: no charging, no latency questions, and a lower price. If you want the same shape untethered, the V3 Pro is the wireless route. But if you're happy on a cable and want one of the best ergonomic shapes in gaming with native 8K and a flagship sensor for well under €100, the wired V3 is hard to beat.

- Medium to large hands
- Players who prefer wired — no charging
- Native 8K polling without a dongle

- Left-handed players
- Small hands / fingertip-only grip

The wired DeathAdder V3 is one of the easiest value recommendations in the catalog. You're getting the most proven ergonomic shape in gaming, a genuine flagship sensor and switch package, and native 8000Hz polling — all on a cable, all for well under €100. The only thing you give up versus the V3 Pro is the wireless, and if you don't need it, you're effectively paying less for the same aim performance. For right-handed palm and claw players with medium to large hands who don't mind a cord, this is the smart pick.
