Configuring the Mamba
The Razer application allows the user to customize six individual buttons plus three different functions for the scroll wheel, and also configure advanced settings. You can set five sensitivity stages raging from 100 to 5,600 dpi (and also independent X/Y sensitivity), record macros for work-related applications or games (useful to unleash powers and abilities in games like World of Warcraft or run complex tasks in Photoshop). Thanks to its internal memory, the user can take his Mamba anywhere – a friend’s house, a local competition, a LAN house – and have his settings always (and literally) at hand.

Unfortunately the Razer application is not very user-friendly. It is kinda clunky and takes forever to save and load any changes or profiles. It even slows down the PC’s performance (bear in mind that it was testing on a Core 2 Quad with 4 GB RAM). We did some meddling in the name of this review but frankly we got tired of the non-intuitive button assignment and macro recording. The really good thing is the feature that allows the user to set different sensitivity stages with no pre-chosen options. For instance, we set dpi increments of 800, 1,200, 1,800, 2,400 and the extreme 5,600.
