the thorn is the most unique of these shapes and if you already know you like the deathadder I'd say go for that. if you have smaller hands maybe look at the deathadder hyperspeed.

I've used the thorn for a week now and I'll say that the battery is kinda weird. Sometimes if loses charge quickly and sometimes it loses charge slowly. But on a full charge the battery lasts about 5 days for me. (1K HP mode)

These brands are wasting no time with rolling out 3950's. I'm having to remind myself the 3395 in my Sora v2 is just fine. It's great that new and improved options are constantly being released, but I'm definitely having to fight the FOMO.

Unfortunately the Sora is allergic to Valorants game code and it will literally burst into flames if you try to play Valorant with it.
