To use your macro, click back over to the Customize tab in the Mouse area, click a button, and assign it your macro. Although the above portions of the software will certainly appeal to a great number of Diamondback users, Synapse has a couple of features for those with too much time to kill. Chroma Apps enable third-party integration with games and applications if the Chroma Configurator does not sate your need for complex lighting effects.
There's a whole "workshop" you can dig through, as well as a developer portal , if you're interested in more. If you're keen to track your stats in games, click the Stats area and enjoy seeing how many mouse clicks, wheel rotations, macros, profile switches and more you've performed. There's also a heat map available to show you your clicks, movements and keystrokes in a more graphical format.
This is all game-specific, so you need to add whichever games you want to track manually. It takes just a few clicks to locate and add any title you have available. I don't mind a light mouse, especially if the balance works for me, and the Diamondback fits that description.
The nose is a little light for my taste, but much of the weight seems to be located towards the middle of the mouse rather than the rear, which I like. Further, although you can use a claw grip with the Diamondback, I found a fingertip grip worked for me on this particular peripheral. Because the rear is tapered so much, it fits snugly into my palm, giving me a satisfactory and secure base for my fingertips to control the movement.
For someone like me with normal-sized adult male hands, but with a larger palm and not especially long fingers, there's no way that a palm grip would work with this mouse.
However, if you have a slender hand and longer fingers, you might find that the Diamondback is a stellar option for palm gripping. One issue I found grating is that there was nowhere ideal for my thumb to rest. My thumb is too thick to fit into the severe taper on the side, so my only option was to grip the side of the mouse, right on the two seemingly rather sensitive navigation buttons.
This meant that I kept accidentally clicking them if I gripped the mouse just a little too tightly. The scroll wheel on the Diamondback is physically smaller and thinner than the one on the Mamba, but it has the same nubby rubber grip. I found that the smaller size didn't bother me in the slightest -- Razer wisely crafted it so that the amount of the wheel that extends up from the body of the Diamondback is the same as on the Mamba.
I personally prefer a smoother scroll wheel surface, as nubs tend to annoy my fingertip somewhat, but the amount of no-slip control this design offers is undeniable. The stops on the wheel are clear and strong and frankly kind of noisy when you're rolling fast , with obvious haptic feedback, so if you prefer a smoother scroll wheel experience, look elsewhere.
A minor issue -- and one that I seem to have with any ambidextrous mouse -- is that I found myself constantly angling the Diamondback slightly inward, towards my left. It's not a dealbreaker for me, but I do prefer a true right-handed mouse, so if I was going with a Razer product, I'd opt for the design and feel of the Mamba over the Diamondback.
In day-to-day use, I had no issues with this mouse. Once I had Synapse updated which needs to happen often and requires a PC restart for the Diamondback, I could even plug-and-play with no issue. I experienced no tracking issues in gaming nor in day-to-day work. The Diamondback responded to settings adjustments made via Synapse almost instantaneously, without my having to click "Apply. There's a downside to that, though: Just try cranking up the dpi settings when the changes take place right away, for example.
That's a good bit pricier than many other well-appointed gaming mice, although it's by no means outrageous. Some of what you're paying for is Razer's excellent lighting features, so if lighting isn't something that gets your heart pumping, you may want to opt for a less expensive mouse. But if you like all the bells and whistles and a well-done though unique ambidextrous design, the Diamondback is worth a look.

My problem is that on every setting, whether playing or just browsing the internet, the mouse just disconnects from my laptop where all other mouses I have used so far worked just fine. I have tried every UBS port on the laptop, reinstalled the drivers. The mouse runs perfectly well and is very responsive for a few minutes, then for wathever reason, it just disconnects at 4mns of use or so. I seem to only be able to get it back working by unpluging and pluging it back.
I am running out of ideas on how to fix the problem. Jul 15, 80, 13, Since its a laptop with Vista: Check your power settings in the control panel. You may have a laptop mode enabled which turns off inactive or perceived inactive USB ports to save power.
Debut at the World Cyber Games in , the Razer Diamondback gaming mouse took over the gaming world. This absolute iconic gaming mouse was a creation of research and engineering, hundreds of almost identical designs, and test evaluations done by eSport athletes. What set the original Diamondback mouse apart was the first ever optical gaming sensor — delivering the greatest accuracy and speed.
The original mouse received every gaming award and over reviews and awards worldwide. People wanted this mouse more than anything, making it the most wanted gaming product of the s. The Razer Diamondback has returned after a decade of redesigning. The top speed and accuracy still remain true with this new version of the mouse. The internal mechanisms, the ambidextrous form factor, and so much more, lives on in this new mouse.
The mouse has gotten thinner, sleeker, lighter, and smaller, all while still maintaining the necessities needed to make it considered the absolute best. Not only is this mouse still featuring the ambidextrous form factor, but the even more so improved mouse features a large variety of grips and hand sizes.
So basically, no matter what sort of hand you have — right or left, big or small, use a palm or finger — this new and improved Razer Diamondback mouse has got the right fit for you somewhere in the adjustments. No matter how intense your battles get, this mouse has got the right grip style for you to stay comfortable with. As an added bonus, Razer has included rubber side grips for more control when in lift-off or fast swipes.
Also for a nice feature, you can disable the buttons on whichever side you are not using — which would help marginally with accidental clicks.
Razer says that the need for high DPI is for the high resolute graphics and the multi-monitor setups. The wheel on the mouse is a little stiffer. This can help prevent wrongful scrolling, but it can also take more time and effort. Comparatively, other mice have better scrolling capabilities.
