I have two copies of this mouse and the only rubber part is the middle scroll wheel. The two side buttons on the left inside are a hard plastic. **Q: Is there an appp for this mouse?** A: Yes. Download the Razer app. Also, I have had this mouse and it is the toughest mouse I have owned. It is like a tank and it is very accurate. **Q: Can this mouse drag click?** A: Not this particular model. However, the Deathadder Elite is amazing for drag clicking. **Q: Will this mouse work on a Mac?** A: But it appears the Control software (Synapse) is not available for Macs.... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thanks *by A***N on 16 September 2025* Not so good on clothes, always have to use solid space and mouse pad. Thanks pretty fast. Thanks Amazon ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good *by N***D on 18 October 2025* Good quality ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lower quality then the old version *by H***R on 1 September 2025* My old mouse from the same model feels higher quality. The old one clicks with less noise and the wire is cut resistant material, while this one click louder and with normal plastic wire. ## Frequently Bought Together - Razer DeathAdder Essential Gaming Mouse: 6400 DPI Optical Sensor - 5 Programmable Buttons - Mechanical Switches - Rubber Side Grips - Classic Black - Razer Ornata V3 X Gaming Keyboard: Low Profile Keys - Silent Membrane Switches - Spill Resistant - Chroma RGB Lighting - Ergonomic Wrist Rest - Snap Tap - Razer BlackShark V2 X Gaming Headset: 7.1 Surround Sound - 50mm Drivers - Memory Foam Cushion - For PC, PS4, PS5, Switch - 3.5mm Audio Jack - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/353266108-deathadder-essential-gaming-mouse-6400-dpi-optical-sensor-5-programmable](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/353266108-deathadder-essential-gaming-mouse-6400-dpi-optical-sensor-5-programmable) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-08-02*
