Razer is a company known for its high-quality PC peripherals, and recently announced the release of its new mousepad, the Razer Atlas. This mousepad is quite different from those normally found on the market, since it is made of 5mm thick tempered glass and does not have RGB lighting as the brand usually offers. Although the price of $99 USD may seem high, the Razer Atlas delivers a premium user experience, or at least it promises.
However, what really caught my attention was that the Razer Atlas product page includes some unexpected warnings. In an illustration, Razer points out that the Atlas should not be used to harness sunlight to start a fire like a magnifying glass, or to shield the face from the sun’s rays. Users are also asked not to use it as a weapon to hit other people in the head.
Don’t you believe us? Here’s the warning Razer included:

Why did Razer include these warnings?
These warnings may seem ridiculous at first glance, but it is important to remember that manufacturers have a responsibility to provide clear and precise instructions for use for their products. This is especially important when it comes to products like the Razer Atlas, which are not common and can be potentially dangerous if used incorrectly.
Yes, the Razer Atlas’s warnings may seem obvious, but it’s important to remember that accidents can happen anytime, anywhere. A person may decide to use the Razer Atlas incorrectly without realizing the risks, which can lead to serious injury.
It is likely that Razer has decided to include these warnings after considering the possible legal consequences of misuse of the product. If a user decides to use the Razer Atlas incorrectly and is injured or causes damage, the company could face legal claims. In this way, the company washes its hands and avoids problems caused by individuals without common sense.
In addition, following the Razer Atlas usage warnings can help extend the life of the product. Tempered glass is a tough material, but if it’s subjected to misuse, it can crack or even break.
The Razer Atlas went on sale on March 24 in various parts of the world. If you plan to buy it, we just ask that you be careful and follow all Razer instructions. A tragedy is not going to happen for misusing it.
