Razer is the world’s leading brand in high-end computer gaming peripherals. We reinvented the computer gaming industry by bringing the competitive edge to gamers when professional computer gaming was in its infancy. In the mid 90s, with the advent of networked gaming and competitive first-person-shooter (FPS) games, gamers found that their legacy peripherals were inhibiting rather than enhancing their gameplay.
In the late 90s, after years of research and development, the Razer Boomslang™ gaming mouse, the stuff of gaming legends, was launched. Featuring an unprecedented precision of up to 2000 dpi when other mice maxed out at 400 dpi, the Razer Boomslang™ offered up to five times the accuracy of other gaming mice of its time. The Razer Boomslang™’s precision technology was powered by proprietary opto-mechanical technology developed by the Razer engineering team and its sleek design and profile sculpted by ergonomics experts of its day.
And the rest is history. The Razer Boomslang™ is now part of gaming culture and legend with some of the top gamers of its time adopting it as their weapon of choice. Jonathon “Fatal1ty” Wendell, Sujoy Roy, Hakeem and Xenon, some of the many professional gamers that have sworn by their Razer Boomslang™ gaming mice.
While the Razer Boomslang™ has been succeeded by the Razer Viper™, which featured a 1000 dpi optical engine, the next quantum leap in computer gaming peripherals arrived when Razer unveiled the Razer Diamondback™ in San Francisco at the Grand Finals of the World Cyber Games 2004.
The Razer Diamondback™ is the world’s first 1600 dpi optical gaming mouse. Powered by Razer Precision™, the Razer Diamondback™ was the first gaming mouse in the world to sweep all the major gaming awards available at that time. It also outclassed an entire genre of gaming hardware to be awarded the highly coveted Gamespot’s Gaming Hardware of the Year 2004 accolade. The Razer Diamondback was considered the de rigueur gaming mouse of its prime with most of the leading gaming professionals adopting it as their weapon of choice.
Having led the technology arms race and overpowering its competitors for the past few years, Razer has stamped its leadership in gaming technology in the fall of 2005 again. In the hallowed tradition of the Razer Boomslang™ and the Razer Diamondback™, we decided to revolutionize the gaming mouse again in 2005.
The Razer Copperhead™ is the world’s most advanced mousing peripheral today. It’s the world’s first laser gaming mouse, the world’s only thinking mouse and the world’s fastest gaming mouse.
Featuring a laser sensor Powered by Razer Precision™, the Razer Copperhead™ has an unparalleled tracking precision of up to 2000 dpi. It is also the fastest mouse today utilizing a full speed USB bus when other mice are still low speed USB devices. The Razer Copperhead is up to 8 times faster in terms of data polling and is also the first mouse in the world to feature onboard memory capabilities Powered by Razer Synapse™. Each Razer Copperhead can also be personalized in terms of weights and buttons to meet the demanding standards of professional gamers.
