Title: Thoughts on the Razer Boomslang 20th Anniversary Edition
Post by: noisyturtle on Tue, 10 February 2026, 02:10:36

Personally, the Boomslang was my first ever performance mouse (analogue ball version) so I was excited to hear about this.

Then I kept reading, and the more I learned, the more disappointed I got.

It looks fantastic. I genuinely think it is a beautiful piece of hardware.

That being said; The price point, limited availability, and pomp surrounding it, makes it one of the dumbest and most pointless pieces of hardware to ever be made.

What do yall think?

I think that friends don't let friends buy Razer.

It is a brand that exploits its consumers. It has insecure, bloated "drivers". Their marketing over-exaggerates (as a rule). And then when called out, shuffles problems under the rug or outright lies about it.
