I bought this mouse for my girlfriend for Christmas. I have a Razor Copperhead mouse that she loved to use. The only problem with that was the Copperhead is a larger mouse which works great for me but she has small hands so it was too big for her to be comfortable. After doing some research on the other Razor mice I found the Krait. The measurements were listed on their website and low and behold it was a smaller mouse. The price on Amazon was cheaper than their site and the shipping was very fast. The mouse is excellent. It is very responsive and glides oh so smoothly on a laser mouse pad. If you have smaller hands and still want a great gaming mouse I highly suggest this mouse.

I have the Copperhead and this one I bought for my son, we are both gamers World of Warcraft to name a few. This mouse blew him away! Better than his old wireless!

My secretary hates this mouse because it requires too much control, but it works like a charm for me.

This is a great mouse and a very successful hit from Razer ! They say it's made for RTS and MMORPGs and that's eligible , because it does just right in those kind of games.
Just try to play Starcraft or Warcraft III with this piece of hardware...
Oh and get a Mantis pad , too.....

I've owned one of these for many years. And it still looks as well as performs like new! Feels good in the hand and never gives you a lick of trouble. I personally like that the wheel is lit as well as the sides so that you can easily find it in low light.

I bought BOTH the Krait and the Deathadder and have used both for several weeks. I like the Krait better because it is lighter, smaller, easier to use with your fingertips (instead of resting your whole hand as on the Deathadder), and the mouse buttons are quicker and easier to click. Krait is a bit of a narrow mouse but is easy to adapt to. Some may like the "full-bodied" feel of the Deathadder which I can appreciate, as well. Love the super-high responsiveness of both mice and fast tracking that never faults. You cannot go wrong with either of these top-end mice.

overall great mouse. all the good features of a razor but in a slightly more compact design. for those looking for a size comparison to, say, the copperhead, its about 20-25% smaller. i would not call this mouse a laptop mouse, its still fair size.

i would have also liked at least 1 more button on it. perhaps the thumb buttons. they market this mouse as an "rpg mouse" or whatever. I play wow and I ues 5 mouse buttons on my copperhead consistantly so I could not use this mouse for gaming in wow and probably most first person shooters for sure. the buttons that are on it work great, never any accidental double clicks or phantom clicks like the crappy fatality mouse by creative labs. nothing like that peice of junk at all.

otherwise the mouse glides really nice, nicer than the copperhead with really great teflon (or whatever the heck it is) feet. i use it at work and it is a great mouse, never skips or jumps, instant response from idle, etc.

fantastic quality mouse for the low price it has.

Best mouse I've ever used. If you play RTS than this is the mouse for you, if you're an FPS fan you should obviously pick up the IME 3.0 or Death Adder.

Side buttons might be nice to bind inventory items to in Wc3, but I'm so used to the numpad, it doesn't matter much anymore.

I have a Copperhead on my main tower, my brother has a Diamondback on his, the Krait had just come out and I thought it would be good for my laptop as it is smaller in size, and is designed for MMORPGs, RTSs and the like. I do my FPS on my main(better system), and most of my EQ2/MMOs on my laptop. This mouse is WAY to sensitive and inaccurate for MMOs. It likes to jump around a bit, kind of like when the old ball mice would get crude on the ball and not spin right. With a resonable resolution the icons you want to click on are decently small, this mouse will just fly right past the icon. Targeting enemies is almost impossible, best to just let them hit you first. And trying to surf the web is an exercise in anger managment as it is VERY hard to hit the right button(back arrow, minimize, maximize, the right email to read). I have turned the sensitivity all the way down to the point where it doesn't do these things, and it runs slower than my old ball mouse making the purchese a pointless one as you buy it for the speed and accuracy.

It does work ok for twitch FPSs though. Although with it's small size, if you have normal sized or larger hands, this will only cause issues for your kill-shots.

I can not say enough good things about my Copperhead or my bro's Diamondback, but I can not recommend this PoS to anyone. I gave it 2 stars as it might be just the right mouse for someone, but I've never met that person.
