Even chinkshit is more reliable, because they use more reliable components. Stop shilling garbage Logitech mice, nigger. That's reliability, the tech inside of their mice is shit as well

>>715149265
Because you're a disgusting troglodyte? There's an optical sensor in most wheels these days. If your gamer gunk and hair and what not gets inside the mouse it can get to the sensor and cause it to malfunction. It will literally last forever if you keep it clean.

>>715148951 (OP)
i have this exact mouse, i cant believe it survive more than my other mouses

>>715148951 (OP)
>give me one (1) good reason why you'd ever need to spend more than 30 bucks on a mouse
g502 costs $35 therefore 30 is insufficient

cant believe they got rid of g600 ffs i dont know what i will do when my eventually breaks

because i have a gorilla grip and just kill any mouse without optical switches

>>715148951 (OP)
I bought a deathadder v2 with the optical switches when it first came out, and it's never double clicked on me. All of MG Logitech mind double clicked on me in 6 months or so. Glad I spent more than 30 dollars.

>>715149990
cope, faggot. I bet your shitty G305 battery cover wobbles. Everyone knows about their shitty microswitches that they refuse to change. Even their original G pro mice has double clicking issues, and that's a fucking $150 mouse.
Imagine being a consoomer retard and paying $150 for a shitty quality mice

>>715150257
Razer redeemed themselves the past couple of years. They started to use more acceptable component quality in recent years. Although I can only speak for their mice. If you can find a good deal for a Razer mouse, it's worth it. There was a time where Razer products were completely unusable.

>>715150323
>Even their original G pro mice has double clicking issues, and that's a fucking $150 mouse.
It's 100% true. I have a G Pro right here and the scroll wheel is dead. DO NOT EVER BUY LOGITECH. Horrific quality.

Because my DAV3 Pro is literally perfect.

You shouldn't, but you shouldn't buy Logitech either.

30g is huge when you play on low sens bro
But here it was 40g

man i am so glad the wired meme is dead and everyone on /v/ can finally agree that wireless is superior in ever way

>>715150564
I've been using the Ninjutso Sora V2 for a year now and it's still working absolutely perfectly. Only downside is the software experience is kind of poor, but I'm not using that all the time

>>715150420
>>715150323
Logitech is the only brand that fits my hand. I have to keep buying their subpar quality shit

>>715150671
You still unfortunately have a bunch of old boomers who refuse to acknowledge that wireless is superior. They still think wireless has significant input delay.

>>715150671
Not superior. It needs charging. That's the only difference I felt when buying a wireless mouse

I bought this goofy motherfucker for 30 bucks back in 2015 and it lasted me up until this year and I replaced it with a g305 for the same price. let's see how long this one holds up

>>715150671
The latency is about 0.3ms worse on the flagship sensor tier but both can reach under 1 millisecond so who really cares
No cable drag pays for it

>>715150809
Never ever felt like this was a problem desu

I want a mouse that uses metal for materials. What's a good one? I like the cool feeling because it's always cold as FUCK here.

Scyrox V6 or keychron m5?
One is 40g and standard ambidextrous layout and the other is 100g with a vertical layout

Zoomers can't solder in a $1 button switch once their mouse starts doubleclicking so they have to buy a new one every few months.

Do you match your mouse's colours with your keyboard, or do you not give a fuck?

>>715151078
My keyboard is so old it only has single color, and i disable lighting on my mouse because it drains the battery faster

>>715151078
Good question. After going with white/silver products over the years, I've noticed that I always come to regret it eventually. Now, my soul is dead, and I like to play it safe. I buy EVERYTHING in black. Just everything.

Overpriced garbage is not even worth $5. How is it that their wheel controllers will last 20+ years but their headsets and mice won't last two without something fucking up? The cable for my wired G635 headset fucking melted.

I literally "fixed" my g400s' wheel by simply cleaning it for a gorillion times. Kill yourself.

cuz thats not the g502 and it costs more than 30 dollars where i live

>>715148951 (OP)
Dunno. But after buying a Series X controller for my PC and having it die in less than a year, I'm never buying an expensive controller ever again.

>>715159167
these days you gotta go chink for controllers.
ironically more durable despite being cheaper.

>>715148951 (OP)
I'd pay a little bit more($60). Then be set for life.

>>715150564
I got one of these mice, for some reason using the wireless sensor causes random shutdowns on multiple systems (wired seem to work fine). So there is definitely something sussy with quality control but other than that it's like 90% as good as some of the 100$+ mice I've used.

I just like the shape man

>>715160307
same.

if they could make a 2025 version ~50g weight, seperate M1/M2 from the rest of the shell, have 2 side buttons, and use optical switches I'd get one.

imo that thumb area was perfect, just big enough to reduce drag but not retarded like the G502 and razer basilisk.

I can't comprehend how anyone functions with only two side buttons

Microsoft Pro Intellimouse is my favourite shape, but I needed a wireless mouse so I got the G305 and it's been great. Shape isn't my favourite, but it's definitely good enough. A bit too small. I'll never buy any Razer shit again in my life.

>>715160950
easy, you have a keyboard with 104 buttons right next to it

>>715160950
name what those buttons do and i'll tell you

ordered this from amazon. 10 bucks, wired, and not ugly as fuck like so many modern mice.

>>715149265
My last G305 lasted 7 years before starting to double click. Got a new one last year

I really liked the OP1 but its just too damn small

>>715162341
Ah so it's not just me. I have average hands and a semi claw grip and I would always fuck mouse 4 with mouse 5 before the opi started misfunctioning anyway.

>>715149265
Because it's cheaper for them to honor the warranty when they fail than bother increasing the costs of production by a few cents and using better switches from the beginning.

>buying symmetrical mice
stop giving l*ft-handed freaks recognition

>>715165951
symmetrical mice just feel better
ergos are inherently subpar if you don't palm grip

Because I want a mouse with better clicks, better sensor, lighter and more responsive.

>>715165951
I love/hate this mouse.

its good for a very specific grip but if you try to change it up a bit it feels kinda shitty.

the front end IMO is too high and the mouse is not quite long enough for me and its a bit too wide

>he buys a mouse with >2ms click latency
what's your excuse

I only buy mice that have non rubbery sides and optical switches at minimum, even if I gotta pay $100 for it idc.

>>715167996
>tfw we live in a world where optical switches isn't even enough anymore
We need optical scroll wheels too now. Hopefully now that Razer Deathadder V4 Pro just launched with it, other brands will start adapting it too.

Enough of this stupid shit where "high-end" mice sometimes only last 1 year.

>>715148951 (OP)
What's a good budget mouse for people with big hands?

I'm thinking of buying Razer Basilisk V3. Is there something I could spend my money better on?

>>715168201
yea thats another thing, when a scroll wheel happens to stop half way between a step and finishes randomly at the worst time.

I have to unbind my scrollwheel in games on some mice because of this

>>715168415
how big?

the basilisk is not really that good for gaming IMO

endgame makes really good mice like the XM2
lamzu maya x is apparently really good

the best mouse i have ever owned

>>715168747
ive almost bought this a few times. idk why something in my gut tells me not to.

For fun

>>715168465
>when a scroll wheel happens to stop half way between a step and finishes randomly at the worst time
My current Superlight(third one, because of previous RMAs due to double clicking M1/M2) has developed this after I swapped the switches due to double clicking and it's extremely annoying even just trying to browse sites. I'm pretty much done with Logitech's mice at this point. Just ordered a Fnatic x Lamzu Maya X.

ultralight vertical mouse when

So are ergonomic mice a gimmick, are do they have actual merit?

>>715168842
Wait until they make a Superlight 3 that has optical thumb buttons and optical scroll encoder. These mice will almost always end up having issues with either doubleclicks, scrollwheel, or side buttons within the first 2-3 years, sometimes within the first year if you are unlucky.

If you are super unlucky you can get all 3 at the same time.

What do you guys map the top button to? I have mine set to mute my PC which is kind of handy.

>>715168576
>How big

I have Logitech G203 and it looks like this in my hands.

>>715169129
yea I guess theres a reason why I stopped buying logitech after my G500s failed back in the day.

once I started using razer I never stopped, I just bought new ones for a different shape feel.

but razer doesnt really seem to care about making new shapes anymore

>>715148951 (OP)
You can buy basically flagship mice for $20 now and people are still buying a G305. You even even buy a better cheaper G305 shaped mouse for cheaper than the G305.

Truly sad times.

if you want wired then probably mchose l7 pro

My 203 started double clicking after 18 months, so I replaced it with a viper mini, which was too narrow and started cramping my hand.
I'm using this now

>>715148951 (OP)
More? I need less.

>>715149265
just replace the switches and it will last forever. this is an extremely easy process that will teach you new skills and realistically anyone can easily accomplish by following along with a youtube video or photo guide.

>you shouldn't buy logitech
Name one brand that can switch between multiple devices using the same mouse with only a button press like my mx keys and M720 can using the same reciever, and I might consider buying it.

>>715170093
>best wireless latency in the world
that would be dav v4 pro

>>715170093
Heard about the scryox but not the mchose, thanks

Started off with a Razer Lachesis in like 2007 or so. Loved that sexy beast. Still werks to this day. Then I moved to an EVGA Torq X10 in 2014 (my buddy and I both got them with a cool mouse pad, also he had a CM Storm Trooper and I have a Storm Stryker), but the chinsy plastic broke while I was trying to take it apart in 2019 (poor build design). Luckily I had a Razer Naga HEX on backup that I found on sale (I wanted more side buttons) about four years prior. That was fine until one day it stopped working. I dunno what happened. Perhaps a component went bad when my PSU shat the bed, but the software wouldn't recognize it and I couldn't get the side buttons to work. Anyway, luckily I had another mouse on backup, a Steel Series Rival that my wife got me for my birthday. The software is atrocious and the buttons are crude and insensitive (I get a lot of failed clicks), but it has three side buttons and it has some kind of macro program. I need to get another mouse for when this one breaks.

>Moral of the story
Expensive mice break, too.
Always have a mouse on backup.
>To answer your question
You need a specific functionality that other, cheaper mice on the market do not provide (sensitivity, buttons, software) or you are autistic (possibly retarded as well) and you need something with a high(er) quality fit & finish.

>>715149930
>There's an optical sensor in most wheels these days
This is deeply funny, because the exact opposite is true. All wheels USED to be optical, and they would fail after the heat death of the universe. All "modern" mice have started using mechanical scroll encoders, which break within a year or two, because people were starting to get too annoyed about the broken mouse buttons so they pivoted to fucking up another vital component to ensure the zoomers buy a new mouse every 2 years.

This is the first time I've bought a mouse that didn't feel like cheap shit. Only had it for like 2 months though so hoping it will last.

20 years and still going, gonna outlive me someday

The reason to pay more than 30 bucks for a mouse is to buy one made in the first world by white people.

My mouse was made by a small company who provide mice for industry work, as in the kind of shit where you can't fuck up the circuit on purpose for "muh planned obsolescence".

If you are buying CONSUMER grade hardware in the modern day, you are completely fucking braindead. Big companies have spent the past 30 years trying their very hardest to make products that just barely work for long enough that you're forced to buy a new one the second your consumer protection runs out, and they have gotten very good at it.

I bought a Kone Pro half off because it fits in my hand very nicely. With the LEDs off its a very clean looking mouse too.

technically anything with optical switches.

>>715178798
any good ones with optical?

>>715178997
I'm currently using a Lamzu mouse but those are expensive and I only had it for a few months so I dont know how long it will last. Previous ones were ROCCAT but the company doesnt exist anymore and while they never developed double clicking the wheel started to jump within three months. Optical switches arent that rare anymore there should be plenty of options.

>>715171757
If they are that great and durable, why did Logitech stop making them?
