The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical is a wireless vertical mouse that's designed for both productivity and gaming. Its vertical design keeps your hand and wrist in a more neutral 'handshake' position than a traditional mouse, which can help reduce strain, especially after long sessions. It features Razer's Focus Pro 30K gaming sensor and a maximum wireless polling rate of 1000Hz while connected to the included 2.4GHz HyperSpeed Wireless USB receiver. It has a premium, businesslike design, but also has an RGB lighting strip at its base.
The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical is very good for office and productivity work. It has a comfortable vertical shape that you hold in a 'handshake' position, keeping your hand, wrist, and arm in a neutral position to prevent strain. It has outstanding build quality and uses premium-feeling and looking materials throughout. Functionally, it connects wirelessly with an included 2.4GHz USB receiver or with up to three devices simultaneously with Bluetooth. Its configuration software is compatible with macOS and Windows and lets you adjust a host of settings and reassign buttons. It does, however, lack a couple of handy scroll wheel features, like a free-scrolling mode and L/R tilt inputs.

The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical is a great FPS gaming mouse if you're okay with its weight. It delivers fantastic raw performance with a 1000Hz polling rate, an extremely responsive and accurate sensor, and incredibly low click latency. That said, it's very heavy, and while its vertical shape reduces strain over long sessions, you have to fight against it to make the precise and quick adjustments necessary for competitive play.

The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical occupies a unique niche in the mouse market. As Razer's first vertical mouse, it combines the ergonomic benefits of a vertical mouse, like the Logitech MX Vertical, with the gaming performance of a flagship FPS mouse, like the Razer Viper V3 Pro. This combination makes it stand alone as an option for those who want a comfortable and ergonomically designed vertical mouse that has the gaming chops to hang when you Alt+Tab from the spreadsheet to the battlefield. It's not perfect, though, as it's very heavy, making it significantly more difficult to move quickly and accurately compared to its more svelte FPS gaming contemporaries like the Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX.

The Logitech Lift and the Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical are both wireless vertical mice designed to keep your hand, wrist, and arm in a neutral 'handshake' position to help prevent strain. While the two mice are quite different in size, with the Logitech being on the smaller side and the Razer being significantly bigger, both mice are fairly accommodating for most hand sizes. The Razer has better build quality than the Logitech, and is much better suited for gaming as it delivers remarkable raw click and sensor latency performance. That said, the Logitech's scroll wheel can scroll freely, convenient for scrolling through large spreadsheets or long documents.
The Logitech MX Vertical and the Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical are wireless vertical mice. While the two are similar in size, the Logitech is unwieldy for smaller hands, while the Razer's thumb and palm/pinky rests make it suitable for a wider range of hand sizes. While both mice are designed primarily for productivity, the Razer has a much higher 1000Hz polling rate and delivers remarkable gaming performance.
The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical and the Keychron M5 are wireless vertical mice designed for gaming and productivity. Shape-wise, the Razer is more vertical at a ~72° angle, while the Keychron is at a ~47° angle. The Razer is also bigger and heavier, and it uses more premium materials with better build quality, although both mice are comfortable for a range of hand sizes. The Keychron is slightly better for gaming overall, thanks to its better click latency, sensor latency, 8000Hz polling rate, and smoother gliding mouse feet.
The Razer Pro Click and the Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical are wireless productivity mice with gaming chops from the same lineup. The V2 Vertical employs a vertical shape that you hold in a 'handshake' position, while the Pro Click has a more traditional right-handed shape. Both mice deliver great gaming performance, but the V2 Vertical has a newer sensor that works on glass surfaces and has a lower minimum lift-off distance. The Pro Click's scroll wheel has L/R tilt scrolling while the V2 Vertical's doesn't, but the V2 can connect to up to four devices simultaneously compared to the Pro Click's two.
The Razer Viper V3 Pro and the Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical are wireless mice designed for different purposes. The Viper V3 Pro is a lightweight FPS gaming mouse that delivers top-tier gaming performance with its 8000Hz polling rate, flagship sensor, and super slick mouse feet. On the other hand, the Pro Click V2 Vertical is a vertical mouse designed to keep your hand in a 'handshake' position to reduce strain. The Pro Click V2 Vertical actually has some gaming chops, too, and delivers remarkable raw performance. Due to its weight, it's a lot more difficult to aim quickly and accurately than the Viper, and its shape isn't designed for that kind of movement, but it's still a great option if you play some games after work.
The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical has modern and professional styling. It has a premium-looking matte plastic finish on one side and a textured finish on the other. A gunmetal gray accent strip with a Razer logo runs from the top of the mouse to the front. If business casual isn't your thing, there's an RGB ring around the bottom of the mouse for an underglow effect when the lights are on.
The texture of the mouse's 3D scan contains some visual artifacts on the bottom plate. Know that these are only visible in the scan and don't reflect the accuracy of the measurements.
We applied an aerosol spray, adding small white particles to the mouse to help ensure we capture a readable scan. While these spots show up on the scan, they're not physically on the mouse.
This mouse is fairly big and bulky, making it cumbersome to tote. However, there's a slot on its underside to store the USB receiver so it doesn't get lost in transit.
The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical has outstanding build quality. It's made of very premium-feeling plastics with a metal strip in the middle. It's assembled well with tight tolerances and doesn't exhibit any flex or make any rattling sounds when you use it. The only minor issue is that the right side of the mouse is quite the fingerprint magnet.
This mouse has a vertical design that you hold in a handshake position. There's a cutout on the left side of the mouse for a thumb rest, as well as a pinky rest on the right side of the mouse. This design effectively locks your grip in comfortably, and despite this mouse's larger size, it helps accommodate smaller hand sizes. That said, there isn't much room above the pinky/palm rest, so your pinky and ring finger could feel cramped if you have bigger hands.
Razer advertises a battery life of up to six months, which, while unspecified, is very likely with a Bluetooth connection. The battery life will likely be significantly shorter using the 2.4GHz receiver.
A fairly short and cheap-feeling rubber charging cable is included. It retains many kinks from its packaging and is much stiffer and heavier than the charging cables included with Razer's more FPS gaming-oriented mice.
This mouse uses black-dyed PTFE feet that glide smoothly across mousepads and directly on desktops. They're not as smooth as the virgin-grade PTFE skates that Razer includes on their FPS gaming mice, like the Razer Viper V3 Pro or the Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro.
Note that the lines on the actuation graph appear 'wobbly' because we had to lay the mouse on its side to measure the actuation force of the click buttons. This isn't noticeable during normal use.
You can reprogram all of the buttons on the Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical, but left click always has to be bound to a button. You can also set a Hypershift button to access a second layer of programmable inputs. Long-pressing the CPI button on the top activates 'AI Prompt Master,' a feature that triggers a macro to launch a third-party AI tool of your choice.
The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical has remarkable click latency performance that's absolutely suitable for games of any genre and at any competitive level.
This mouse's sensor operates as expected and doesn't exhibit any tracking issues.

Razer's Synapse 4 is easily navigable and allows you to easily change the CPI, polling rate, power modes, and RGB lighting and reprogram buttons. It also has some useful features, like a setting to automatically switch to a lower polling rate when you're not in-game to save battery, as well as the ability to set custom profiles that switch automatically based on what application you're using.
Razer Synapse has often been criticized by its users for inefficiently using system resources, requiring frequent updates, and being generally buggy, among other complaints. Razer claims Synapse 4 is faster and more stable than previous software iterations. While we didn't encounter issues in our testing, users online have been reporting mixed experiences with the software, with some saying it's a definite improvement, and others claiming it's worse. If you have this mouse or any other that uses Razer Synapse 4, we encourage you to reach out in the comments and share your experience with it.
