Razer's Ambidextrous Ouroboros Now Available for Purchase
Are you a righty or a lefty? It doesn't really matter.
This past summer, Razer unveiled the Razer Ouroboros, a gaming mouse with fully-customizable ergonomics to suit a range of hand sizes and grips whether you're left- or right-handed. This week, it emerged that the the mouse is now shipping to customers.
We first got wind of the Ouroboros earlier this year but the mouse was only made official in July. Designed with the idea that no two people have the same sized hands and everyone grips a mouse differently, Razer's team of ergonomic scientists and engineers designed a mouse with several adjustable aspects so you can adjust the mouse to match how you personally grip the device.
The Ouroboros boasts two interchangeable side panels for altering the footprint of the mouse to suit claw, palm or hybrid grip styles, and has an adjustable back tilt angle to ensure palm support. It also packs enhanced sensor technology is capable of up to 8200 dpi, and a dedicated, built-in dpi clutch trigger button for precision. The Ouroboros runs on a rechargeable AA battery and Razer claims you'll get a minimum of 12 hours of play on one charge. Check out the full specs below:
- Customizable ergonomics to fit all hand sizes and grip styles
- 8200 dpi 4G Dual Sensor System
- Gaming-grade wireless technology with dock
- Razer Synapse 2.0 enabled
- 11 programmable Hyperesponse buttons
- 1000 Hz Ultrapolling/1 ms response time
- Up to 200 in. per sec./50 g acceleration
- 2.1 m/7 ft. braided fiber cable
- Approximate Size : 116 mm to 136 mm/4.57 in. to 5.35 in. (length) x 71 mm/2.80 in. (width) x 42 mm/1.65 in. (height)
- Approximate Weight: 115 g/0.25 lbs. (without battery) to 135 g/0.29 lbs. (with battery)
- Battery life: Approx. 12 hrs. (continuous gaming)
The Ouroboros is now listed as in stock on Razer's website and is priced at $129.99, or €129.99 if you're in Europe.

At least you can justify the purchase of a mechanical keyboard.
nice catch
Why copy something thats piece of shit to begin with.
It does look similar.....
I disagree. The side skates go all the way to the back of the mouse. It also has interchangeable parts. It's neat but more than I want to spend on a mouse. Logitech G5 for life... haha

I'm not assuming that this is a flaw. This has already been commented on by testers. It is a noted design flaw.
they sell a deathadder leftie edition for like $45 i think.

I concede to the poster about the design flaw. The price is a flaw too. So maybe naming it "ouroboros" foretold of a device that's biting its own ass?
The logo isn't an Ouroboros logo. It's Razer's logo. Read up on its meaning on Wikipedia for example:

There is a DPI clutch button (you can't see it, it's on the side right where your thumb rests) and it doesn't work well at all. It's supposed to be a "press and hold" feature to reduce the DPI, but sometimes when you release the DPI doesn't go back up, and sometimes it just sits there and freezes for a couple of seconds, then works again. It's not a wireless issue either as it doesn't happen if you don't use the button.
Furthermore, the mouse displays on the screen the DPI change when holding/releasing that button. Randomly it will move from the right side of the screen to the very bottom left. You can't move it and you can't turn it off either.
Perhaps a software update down the road will make this guy live up to expectations, but their software is already bloated and slow.
Same problem for me, except Position-Change of the DPI Display
If they dont fix the Clutch Button next Week, i will send my Mice back,
130€ is too much for a not working Mice
