Microwitches for the DeathAdder 2013 sidebuttons are produced by Kailh (Kaihua Electronics Co., Ltd.). Generally I find that the plastic that bridges the button to the microswitch wears out much earlier than the actual switch itself. These are 10 million click lifecycle (no load) microswitches, which should last the life of the mouse. Taking a look at the left and right click buttons, Razer is using Omron D2FC-F-7N (10M) microswitches on the DeathAdder 2013. Here’s a look at the top of the PCB on the DeathAdder 2013. Since the DeathAdder 2013 is using a brand new optical sensor I’ve never seen before, I just had to pull it apart to take a look at what’s under the hood. The DeathAdder 2013 is among the lightest of the bunch weighing in at only 97 grams. This simple LED design is very similar to most of the new mice they’ve been introducing lately.įor those interested, here’s also a weight comparison between the DeathAdder 2013 and a number of popular mice on the market today. Plugging in the mouse, we can see that Razer has gone with just a simple front scroll wheel LED and a Razer logo LED. That said, these pieces are replaceable via the Razer website. Unfortunately, Razer is still using extremely small pieces of Teflon, which tend to wear out quickly. At the top corners and the bottom, we also get 3 Teflon feet. At the center, we get the 4G Infared Sensor which is capable of up to 6400 DPI. Here’s a look at the bottom of the DeathAdder 2013. Taking a look at the right side of the mouse, we get another large rubber piece for enhanced grip. The sides are finished in the same matte finish as the top, which I think looks much better than the glossy finish on the older DeathAdder.
Below that, we get a Razer Taipan inspired rubber piece as well for better grip. Taking a look at the left side of the mouse, we get two very large buttons. Unfortunately Razer didn’t include any additional buttons for DPI adjustment. At the rear of the top we get a Razer logo which includes a LED underneath. Razer has gone with a stealthy textured matte finish here which looks great and helps reduce fingerprints/dust.įrom the top, we get two buttons (left click, right click) along with the center scroll wheel. Of course, this is a good thing since I’ve found that the DeathAdder is one of the most comfortable right handed gaming mice on the market. Taking a look at the mouse itself, we can see that the overall design is fairly similar to the original DeathAdder. They’ve also included a 7 ft braided cord. Here we can see that Razer went with the usual gold plated USB connector.
Included of course is also the DeathAdder 2013 itself.

Overall it’s pretty light on the accessories There’s no software included, so software must be downloaded from the Razer website. Included we get a couple pieces of documentation along with some Razer stickers. Here’s a look at the packaging for the Razer DeathAdder 2013. A Closer Look at the Razer DeathAdder 2013
At the time I didn’t know anything about sensors or microswitches or acceleration. When I first used the original Razer DeathAdder many moons ago, I admit it was a purchase solely made because of how cool it looked in the store.
