Razer rolls out Abyssus Mirror Special Edition gaming mouse

Razer just rolled out its basic Abyssus gaming mouse in November of last year, but it's now already back with a followup: the Abyssus Mirror Special Edition. This one packs the same 3.5G 3500dpi infrared sensor and other internals as before, but adds a new black chrome mirror finish to the exterior of the mouse that Razer says "adds a certain stylistic sensibility to the desktop." It also hangs on to the same $50 price tag as the standard Abyssus, and it's available in the US directly from Razer right now -- a worldwide release is promised "soon." Hit up the gallery below for a closer look.

Xoxide.com should be carrying this mouse soon, and they ship internationally.

@NeoPhyt3
Why the hell would you want a mouse with a glossy finish..? Grease magnet.

[briguyd Posted May 5th 2010 7:47AM]

No side buttons? I'll stick with what I got.

[Grizz Posted May 5th 2010 8:30AM]

@briguyd
+1 Lame without 2 thumb buttons.

Might as well put a smooth scroll on it and sell it as a web mouse.....

@briguyd
I don't see why Razer would make a mouse without side buttons.
I have both the DeathAdder (Work mouse) and the Mamba (home) and they both rock my s0x0rz...but they both have side buttons, heh.

People still use mice?

[I like things Posted May 5th 2010 7:56AM]

Anything with the words "mirror edition" is a fail in my books. I got the lycosa mirror edition and its the worst keyboard I've had so far, its a grease magnet, I just can't keep it clean for 1 second.

I have the same problem with my IKEA desk with a glass top. Looks badass if I clean it though, can't imagine how dirty a mouse could get though

[acme64 Posted May 5th 2010 8:11AM]

wireless mouse w/ atleast 4 buttons. why is this so hard to make razor?

[hq Posted May 5th 2010 9:48AM]

@acme64
Have you *ever* visited the Razer website?
Razer Mamba?

[acme64 Posted May 5th 2010 6:03PM]

@hq
let me refine my statement to include "DOESN'T COST A MILLION DOLLARS" kthx

[schultz Posted May 5th 2010 8:38AM]

a less featured, finger print magnet version of my razer mouse... let me hop on that :P

[encler Posted May 5th 2010 9:53AM]

Deathadder still serves me fine, would consider this as a cheap work mouse if it had side buttons :-/

Razer = we suck at drivers/software

[(Unverified) Posted May 5th 2010 10:06AM]

@JClaude

True that. Great hardware, but they are the laziest company ever in terms of getting working driver out to multi-platforms, and getting reliable, solid software coded. It is a shame because their mice do rock.

[ECH Posted May 5th 2010 10:35AM]

@JClaude

Razer Mamba = sexiness in the palm of your hand

[Ambient80 Posted May 5th 2010 10:41AM]

@Unverified User

Agreed. I love their headphones too. Can't remember the exact name
of the ones I have, but damn they're nice. Very comfortable, and excellent quality. I need to get a mouse when they release mac support, if they haven't already. I haven't checked in a while.

[THJ Posted May 5th 2010 12:51PM]

@Ambient80

I've been using Razer mice since 10.4 w/ SteerMouse for fine-tuning (though it works with w/o any drivers as a standard mouse, SteerMouse gives you better customization). Personally used with Diamondback, Copperhead, DeathAdder.

Haven't tried to save any profiles to the mouse (Don't even remember which ones have that capability), but I do remember trying out the Razer Mac driver briefly, and uninstalled it shortly after and went back to SteerMouse.

HTH

[benjgvps Posted May 5th 2010 4:41PM]

@JClaude Never had a problem with drivers ever. Of the four people I know with these mice, nobody has ever complained about a driver issue. I've used it on the infamous Windows XP x64, Windows XP, Windows 7 x64, Windows 7 32 bit and Vista 32 bit. No issues on any of them.

[aRcane Posted May 5th 2010 11:31AM]

MX518 ftw for me.
But Razor does have sexy mice.

[orangedog Posted May 5th 2010 11:51AM]

That mouse has a tramp stamp.

[questionexclamation Posted May 5th 2010 1:10PM]

Any news on the Mad Catz R.A.T. mouse? Engadget said to expect around April didn't they? Well, its May.

[yarly Posted May 5th 2010 3:23PM]

I'll have an order of my fingerprints to go with that, thank you!
