Having disliked the DAV3 Pro, they tried the cheaper DAV3 HyperSpeed with a slightly different shape for their large hands and fingertip/claw grip.

mixed

Had to download the original Synapse to pair their DAV3 HyperSpeed with its hyperpolling dongle and change settings.

negativebad software

Their new DAV3 HyperSpeed rattles when shaken and has play in both main buttons, and they are considering a return.

negativequality control issues

Their first DAV3 HyperSpeed had a loose, hollow right click and Razer refused a replacement, though they still enjoy the mouse overall.

mixedquality control issues

Owning both, they find the DAV3 HyperSpeed slightly smaller than an EC2-CW and enjoy it for being 20 grams lighter.

positivelightweight

After three months of daily use, their DAV3 HyperSpeed has no creaking and the coating feels like day one.

positivesolid build

Chose the DAV3 HyperSpeed as their first Razer mouse after avoiding Pulsar's QC issues and a stock shortage.

positive

Their new DAV3 HyperSpeed has a good palm-grip shape, but the right-side flare bothers them in longer sessions.

mixeduncomfortable

The DAV3 HyperSpeed's thumb-side flare digs into their palm unless they tilt it, leaving them doubting ergos.

negativeuncomfortable

Hears a rattle when shaking their DAV3 HyperSpeed, unlike their wired mouse and GPX2.

negativequality control issues

Bought in December, their DAV3 HyperSpeed suddenly shut off while at 1% battery and wouldn't turn back on.

negativedurability issues

Calls the DAV3 HyperSpeed perfect, noting that many 4K mice have better sensor implementations but latency tests align with their experience.

positivegreat performance

Owning both, they prefer the Zowie EC2-DW to the DAV3 HyperSpeed and would pick a Vaxee E1 over the Razer for coating and mechanical switches.

mixed

Their first wireless mouse was a DAV3 HyperSpeed grabbed on sale for $60.

positivegreat value

Returned a Burst II Air to buy the DAV3 HyperSpeed and compares it with an XM2we and others at 1000Hz.

positive

Rates the DAV3 HyperSpeed 9/10, finding it feels amazing with the dongle and has the best coating of any mouse they've used.

positivesolid buildgreat performance

Calls the DAV3 HyperSpeed essentially a smaller DAV4 Pro at 53-54g with upgraded coating, skates, wheel and buttons, drawn by strong long-term reviews.

positivelightweightgreat performance

Stayed with the DAV3 HyperSpeed, the smallest size they'd go for in an ergo mouse of this shape.

positive

Razer replaced their failing Viper 8KHz with a DAV3 HyperSpeed for about $30, but they report that it just died.

negativedurability issues

The DAV3 HyperSpeed has been their main since release: great clicks, coating and long-session comfort in a reduced size, working fine with the $30 8K dongle.

positivecomfortablegreat performance

Likes the DAV3 HyperSpeed's weight, clicks, DPI options, build and discreet design, but its optical switches are very loud.

mixedlightweightsolid build

Replacing a 290g wired mouse with the DAV3 HyperSpeed was a huge weight reduction that surprised them.

positivelightweight

At 37 they bought the DAV3 HyperSpeed as their first gaming mouse after good recommendations and liked its simplicity.

positive

Owning three similar mice, they find the DAV3 HyperSpeed feels like a flatter EC2 rather than a wide, stubby EC3.

positive

Their brand-new DAV3 HyperSpeed has an M1 button slightly lower than M2, though it works fine.

mixedquality control issues

Bought a brand-new DAV3 HyperSpeed secondhand for €30 and calls it a very good deal.

positivegreat value

Their DAV3 HyperSpeed's M1 click has developed a sticky half-way point, as if an adhesive pad is catching, possibly due to heat and humidity.

negativequality control issues

Their used DAV3 HyperSpeed has the same sticky-click problem, reminiscent of the Pulsar X2H's.

negativequality control issues

The DAV3 HyperSpeed fits their 18x8cm palm grip better than all other mice, with a balanced coating and fine main clicks, but they dislike the soft side clicks.

mixedcomfortable

Finds the DAV3 HyperSpeed phenomenal and comfortable, but it bugs out in certain games like Rainbow Six Siege unlike their wired DAV4 Pro.

mixedcomfortableconnection issues

Their DAV3 HyperSpeed works perfectly fine on a Razer Atlas glass pad.

positive

Owning many high-end mice, they think the DAV3 HyperSpeed is very well done in weight, shape, performance, price and battery life.

positivegreat valuelightweight

Both DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed units they bought had bad switch grind, so they returned them.

negativequality control issues

Mains the Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed and recommends it as a great ergo shape and a very good ergo mouse.

“Personally I main the pulsefire haste and deathadder v3 hyperspeed.”
positivecomfortable

Loves the shape of the Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed, a smaller DeathAdder V3.

“Razer DAv3 Hyperspeed I just like the shape way too much”
positivecomfortable

Coming from the DeathAdder V3 Pro with big hands, they find the HyperSpeed's shape perfect.

“shape is definition of perfection for me. coming from da v3 pro and i got big hands”
positivecomfortable

The DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed is awesome and paired fine with their HyperPolling dongle once the firmware was updated. They liked the V3 Pro but wanted it smaller, and this is basically that.

“The mouse is really awesome and I had no issues pairing it with my hyper-polling dongle.”
positivegreat performance

The best-built mouse they've used: great clicks, no creaking, great side buttons, and lighter and more comfortable than their creaky Zowie S2-DW. A really good claw mouse close to EC2 size, with great battery life at 1kHz.

“It is honestly the best built mouse I have ever used. Clicks are great, no creaking.”
positivesolid buildcomfortable

After a month, the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed feels great, is well made and fairly priced, with a dongle storage slot, etched labels and adjustable sensor rotation. Coming from a Viper Mini, it's their new main.

“It feels great in hand, the quality is great, and the pricing is nice. Severely underrated ergo mouse”
positivecomfortablesolid buildgreat value

Has big hands and loves the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed, preferring it to the bigger regular DAV3; the coating feels better than on other soft-touch Razer mice.

“I love the mouse too, I have big hands and I like it more than the regular Dav3 which is bigger”
positivecomfortable

Just bought the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed, their first wireless gaming mouse, after a DeathAdder Elite. It looks and feels nice, but they dislike the RGB and may return it.

“I just bought it, coming from the DeathAdder elite from 2017-2018. It looks and feels nice”
mixedwireless

After two months of their DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed waking slowly from sleep, a real problem when switching from controller or watching films, they bought a Viper V3 Pro, which wakes instantly and is almost as comfortable.

“The Viper V3 Pro gives me just as much comfort as the DAv3 HS, just a little less, but it instantly wakes up after sleep”
negativeconnection issues

Ordered the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed because the original is too big, but finds its coating awful; in a shop only the wired V3's coating gave them enough grip to lift it.

“I ordered a DAv3 HyperSpeed because the original is too big for my taste and my god that coating in the non wired is awful”
negative

Bought the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed looking for something like the Outset: a slimmer profile, good build, Viper V3-like clicks and coating, and great battery life at 1kHz. They hate the normal-size DAV3.

“I enjoy the slimmer profile. Build quality is good. Clicks and coating feel reminiscent of the VV3.”
positivesolid buildcomfortable

A few months in: the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed picks up sweat and fingerprints badly but wipes clean daily, and in use they love it, calling it perfect for them.

“Have owned the DAV3 Hyperspeed for a few months now”
positivecomfortable

The DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed's coating is grippy if a bit rubbery, and it's holding up apart from slight side play in the main buttons, but its sensor skips on their ceramic-coated mousepad.

“coating is good, maybe abit too rubbery for my taste but it's grippy for sure.”
mixedquality control issues

Three months in, everything is great: better build than the wired DeathAdder V3, with no creaking, a more tactile scroll wheel and tighter, less mushy clicks.

“had mine for about 3 months and everything is great about it”
positivesolid buildgreat performance

With 19x10cm hands, the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed felt too small, and a slight right-click wobble made loud, distracting pops, so they returned it.

“When I tried it, it was too small and the right click has this minimal wobble”
negativequality control issues

A lifelong ambi user (19.5x10.5cm hands) trying an ergo for the first time: their Overwatch 2 tracking felt aimbot-like and they stayed relaxed under pressure. The shape balances support and space well, and they aim best with it of all the mice they've tested.

“My tracking felt aimbot-like and it was easy to stay relaxed during high-intensity moments.”
positivegreat performancecomfortable

Using the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed for work, their hand got sweaty over long hours, so they drilled holes and cuts into the shell, which they say brought the mouse back to life.

“basically I use for works and notice that not suitable for using long hours, my hand get sweaty”
mixeduncomfortable

Coming from the G305 and Mchose G3 and after trying the Viper V3 Pro, the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed has the Viper's qualities with a shape that fits their palm-claw grip like a glove, so it may be their endgame. The surface feels a bit slippery.

“DAV3 HS had all the qualities of viper v3 but with a shape that fit like a glove.”
positivecomfortablegreat performance

Owns both the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed and the Xlite V3 Medium; with a palm or relaxed-claw grip the DAV3 HS is more comfortable for long work and gaming sessions.

“I could say that dav3 is more comfortable for long hours, depending on your grip style(i do palm/relaxed claw).”
positivecomfortable

Bought the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed alongside the Xlite Medium and other ergos, and it stood out. They prefer it to all the EC2 clones and call it the most underrated ergo mouse.

“Honestly it’s probably the most underrated ergo mouse out there.”
positivecomfortable

Switched from the wired DeathAdder V3, a bit too large for their 19x10.5cm hands, to the HyperSpeed. Loving it so far and landing more shots in The Finals.

“I just picked one up also, I went from a DA V3 wired which I felt was a little too large for my grip style with 19 x 10.5 cm.”
positivegreat performancecomfortable

A user got the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed for $55 from Amazon Warehouse and calls it a great replacement for their DeathAdder V2 Pro.

“I got a Deathadder V3 Hyperspeed for 55 bucks on Amazon warehouse. A great replacement”
positivegreat value

A user calls the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed the best mouse Razer has made.

“i use the deathadder v3 hyperspeed, imo best mouse razer has ever made.”
positive

Finds the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed the most comfortable DeathAdder and keeps it as their backup mouse.

“I find the v3 hyperspeed to be the best comfort razer deathadder mouse for me”
positivecomfortable

They love its shape, size and weight; after long use the feet are worn and the buttons getting mushy.

“Love the mouse, shape,size, weight etc should I just buy another”
