Naga epic?

I may have missed it, but I have been looking around unsuccessfully on these forums for a review of the Naga epic. I'm look at buying one to go with my M11x I will be ordering shortly and had a few questions. I was wondering how portable it is. I reilize it comes with a fairly big charger but it can be used with usb while at school and the charger can stay at home for wirless gaming. And just wanted to know what owners of the mouse think of the mouse in general, any issues or problems. Thanks in advance.

 

I don't have the Naga Epic or know anyone who does, but I have the Mamba, i.e. the other wireless Razer mouse.

Obviously portability is not the primary purpose of this sort of mouse, but you can generally carry any mouse with you if you really want to. It would be especially easy for you since you plan to just bring the USB cable and not the charging dock. I used to carry my DeathAdder in my backpack in a thick sock for protection. It worked well for a couple years, and I'd still do that with my Mamba (in wired mode) if I didn't buy another mouse specifically for portability (the Orochi).

So, as far as I know, the Naga Epic is a little larger than my Mamba, but realistically it should be decently portable as long as your bag has space. You can take a leaf out of my book and just protect the mouse with a sock, or use a carrying case/pouch for some other similar-sized electronic, maybe a camera or something like that.

 

Thanks so much for the reply, great idea to use a camera bag, never even thought of that. And ya you are right about any mouse being portable, just wasn't sure how much bigger it was to the original naga. I read that it is the same size just a little fatter but that was just one persons opinion.

And I was considering the mamba as well. Really want a good wireless mouse for gaming. I play RPGs and FPSs mostly. Have been doing research and have heard good And bad things about the mamba as well as the G700. Just not too much about the naga epic.

Anyway, I think I've read a few of your posts about the mamba. Do you mind if I ask you some questions? From what if read online about it, The general consensus is pretty positive. But Do you have any issues or problems with it? I realize the battery life is not amazing but thats not a huge deal to me. How is it for extended use comfort wise? Have you run into any issues with the wireless signal droping ouy? Thanks again, I really appreciate the input

 

The Mamba's battery life is supposedly 14 hours of straight use, or 72 hours of "normal" use, whatever the hell that means. Personally, I take it off the charger when I turn my computer on in the morning, and put it back on when I go to bed at night, and it's never run out on me.

In terms of comfort, it's the most perfect fit my hand has ever felt. If you've ever held the DeathAdder, it's basically the same shape but with additional rubber grips for the thumb and pinkie.

As for signal quality, I've owned my Mamba for about a year now, and I have not yet experienced any loss of connection or interference, so it's pretty much perfect as far as I'm concerned.

I guess my only real complaint about the Mamba would be the $130 price tag, but I bought mine refurbished for $70, so I can't really even whine about that.
