The Wolverine V4 Pro is built for players who treat a controller like a gaming mouse. Razer lists up to 8000 Hz HyperPolling on PC with sub-2 ms latency over its HyperSpeed Wireless, native Steam support, and new capacitive thumbstick sensors with over 10X the resolution of the previous generation and a true 0% dead zone. There are 4 removable magnetic back buttons with mouse-click switches, 2 claw grip macro bumpers, and HyperTriggers that switch between instant mouse-click actuation and full-range pulls for racing games. Razer Synapse adds 4 onboard profiles, adjustable dead zones and trigger actuation ranges. It costs from $199.99 at Razer US, the highest verified price here, and battery is rated at up to 27 hours, against 40 hours on the Xbox Elite Series 2. The 8000 Hz figure applies to PC; on Xbox it works as a licensed wireless controller.
