In the world of FPS gaming, where every reaction time is measured in milliseconds, choosing the right mouse and headset combination is essential for achieving stability and accuracy in competition. With the DeathAdder V4 Pro and BlackShark V3 Pro – the two newest flagship devices in Razer's HyperSpeed Gen-2 wireless ecosystem – users can achieve a natural control feel and superior directional sound without compromising on latency or usability.
Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro: Lightweight, smooth, and instantly responsive.
The DeathAdder V4 Pro is the lightest mouse in DeathAdder history, weighing only 56g for the black version. Despite the significant weight reduction, the design maintains stability thanks to a restructured chassis and a side panel that is 72% more robust than its predecessor. The matte surface resists fingerprints and doesn't overheat during extended use. The large, separate, and easy-to-use auxiliary buttons are suitable for both palm and claw grip styles.

The Focus Pro 45K Gen-2 optical sensor boasts a resolution of 45,000 DPI, a tracking speed of 900 IPS, and acceleration of 85G. A major advantage of this sensor lies in its extensive customization capabilities via Synapse software: DPI can be adjusted in increments, X/Y axis sensitivity can be changed independently, mouse rotation can be fine-tuned, and dynamic sensitivity can be set based on mouse movement speed.
In games requiring high reaction speed like Valorant or PUBG , the mouse allows for more precise flicks or 180-degree spins thanks to its DPI switching system based on hand speed. Adjusting the lift-off and landing movements via the Asymmetric Cut-off feature helps maintain stable mouse accuracy, even when frequently lifting the mouse.

Wireless connectivity utilizes the Razer HyperSpeed Wireless Gen-2 platform, supporting a maximum polling rate of 8000Hz – currently the fastest wireless standard for gaming mice. When paired with a 240Hz monitor, the responsiveness and smoothness at 8000Hz are significantly better than with the traditional 1000Hz. With the included HyperSpeed Gen-2 dongle, users can directly monitor battery status, signal quality, and polling rate thanks to the integrated LED indicators.
Razer BlackShark V3 Pro: Richly detailed sound and active noise cancellation.
As the latest product in the BlackShark line, the V3 Pro offers a host of upgrades designed for professional competition. Its over-ear design, inspired by pilot headphones, features dual-layer memory foam ear cushions for effective passive noise cancellation. Despite weighing only 320g, the lightweight frame and even weight distribution ensure comfort during extended use.
The Razer BlackShark V3 Pro is a major upgrade with a metal dial, ANC noise cancellation, and multi-device connectivity.

The BlackShark V3 Pro utilizes next-generation 50mm TriForce Bio-Cellulose drivers, reproducing clean and accurate sound. With up to 50% reduction in distortion and a 75% increase in magnet size, the headset allows for clear differentiation of sound layers: from footsteps and reloading to ambient noise at long distances. The surround sound system supports THX Spatial Audio 7.1.4 on PC – recreating a vertical effect, allowing you to clearly hear footsteps or enemy movement from high floors, rooftops, or drones hovering overhead.
Razer Synapse 4 software allows for detailed adjustments to the audio profile, from bass enhancement and vocal clarity to overall frequency balance. In addition to four basic EQ presets, Razer also provides users with pre-set EQs for popular FPS games like CS2 and Valorant to further enhance the headset's performance.

The 12mm HyperClear Full Band microphone on the BlackShark V3 Pro also received significant software upgrades. Compared to the BlackShark V2 Pro, the microphone processing system on the V3 Pro is noticeably different – not only suitable for in-game communication, but also usable in streaming or semi-professional recording environments thanks to the Broadcast preset. A total of four microphone modes (Default, Esports, Broadcast, Flat) each have distinct characteristics, allowing for selection based on intended use and room environment.
Furthermore, the V3 Pro is also the first BlackShark headset to integrate active noise cancellation (Hybrid ANC). While not as perfect as dedicated ANC headsets, the four microphones integrated into the headset are still capable of suppressing minor noises such as fan noise, air conditioning, or ambient sounds in a closed room. This helps increase concentration during long gaming sessions or online competitions.
A synchronized and flexibly connected ecosystem.
Both the DeathAdder V4 Pro and BlackShark V3 Pro utilize the HyperSpeed Wireless Gen-2 standard. Thanks to this platform, input latency on the mouse can reach 0.29ms and on the headset below 10ms – figures that are very difficult to achieve on conventional wireless systems. In a competitive FPS environment, this means that movement, clicks, and audio signals are transmitted to the system almost instantaneously.
The Razer product ecosystem is managed within Synapse 4 software.

In addition to 2.4GHz connectivity, the BlackShark V3 Pro also supports both Bluetooth and USB/3.5mm – allowing you to play music from your phone while maintaining a smooth 2.4GHz gaming connection without lag or stuttering. This is a rare advantage, especially for gamers who need to stay in touch outside of the game without interrupting the main audio. Notably, the headset also features a separate physical dial on the right side, allowing you to adjust the balance between game audio and chat audio. Users can quickly prioritize one of the two audio streams depending on the situation, whether gaming or entertainment, without needing to access software or switch devices.
Overall assessment
When used in conjunction, the DeathAdder V4 Pro and BlackShark V3 Pro create a wireless gear combination capable of meeting the most demanding requirements in competitive FPS gaming. This combo is aimed at competitive FPS gamers where every millisecond and the smallest sound can be a deciding factor.
With serious investment in both hardware design and synchronized software systems, the DeathAdder V4 Pro and BlackShark V3 Pro are worthwhile options for anyone looking for a complete and effective wireless gear setup for FPS games.
