The Laser Sensor
The Razer Copperhead Gaming Mouse uses a laser sensor for tracking purpose and has its advantage over LED based sensors. The sensor used in the Copperhead is ADNS-6010 LaserStream, a second generation laser sensor developed by Avago Technology. Logitech's G5 and Genius's Ergo 525 incorporate the same sensor.
This laser sensor works at 6.4 Megapixels/second and is able to process around 7080 frames per second that is currently the highest compared to all the mice. Its high performance architecture is capable of sensing high-speed mouse motion with resolution up to 2000 dpi, velocities up to 45 inches per second (ips), and acceleration up to 20g. This laser sensor is a perfect one for users who favor extreme high sensitivity. Besides that, it has the ability to downshift to 400 dpi, which makes sure that any person using anything from low sensitivity to high sensitivity is comfortable with the mouse.
The Razer Copperhead has four different dpi settings, which can be increased or decreased on the fly at the click of the button.
USB Connectivity
Razer Copperhead also features 1000MHz Ultrapolling rate (USB Rate), which gives it a response time of 1ms. This gives it an edge over Logitech's G5, which supports only up to 500 reports per second (rps). Besides that, it features 16 bit data path, as compared to 8 bit(Ergo 525) and 12 bit(G5) data paths used by other conventional mice. It also has a gold plated USB connector to ensure maximum connectivity.
