Not even the famed double clicking issue and I've been playing a lot of games since I got my PC. I swear, every single mouse I have owned ends with a faulty wheel after some months of use.

Recommend me a new mouse, preferably something with a proven good scroll wheel that won't die after staring at it for too long.

Glorious Model O

Dareu chinky brands are good, have a good sensor + come with grip tape in the box + good battery life and have a charging dock bundled in

If you're a hobbyist you can also widen the pin holes and put millmax hotswap sockets into your mouse

Have you tried cleaning it? it fixes like 90% of that shit

>>724074079 (OP)
I've had one for 5 years now. Zero issues.

Caiman here. No problems.

i bought a corsair m65 because it matched my keyboard and i hate it

>>724074079 (OP)
mine is 4 years old and 0 issues

Sorry you learned the hard way that western gamer brands sell dogshit, anon

Logitech is THE shittiest mouse brand. this is a fact

Never buy logitech. There is a reason they have to pay all the pro FPS players to use their shit. Nobody is using it out of choice

>>724074957
i have their k55 keyboard and absolutely love it but yeah, learned the hard way that I made a shit decision

I'm a G305 slave but I bought this abomination on sale since it's the supposed replacement of the G305.
I actually fucking love it. The shape is better and the clicks are really good. Feels premium.

Something like a Keychron Q5 Max or Q6 Pro will suck your cock clean off if you're good with Corsair

glorious is worse qc than logishit.

>>724075167
i got this shit for 35 bucks of the bay i don't like the mouse wheel it doesn't click like g305. also if you wanted a replacement for g305 there is a better chink one already.

>>724075538
i like the design alone from a glance. How are their mice?

>>724075657
what's the chink equivalent of g305

>>724075704
Very regularly sold out, especially in the case of their vertical mouse which is apparently one of the best-in-class options for verticals

Zowie EC2

>>724075167
still using my G305, its been 8 years. lately scroll wheels feels a little loose, but i don't want to trash it still

I've had a g102 for 8 years.
One day the middle click stopped working, so I went and bought one of those fancy chink mice with optical switches and PAW3950. It died in less than a year.

>>724075762
MCHOSE G3

>>724074079 (OP)
I have five and a half years of heavy use on my G203 and there's no signs of wear on it. If your mousewheels are always breaking on you, then the problem might be on your end.

>>724074079 (OP)
Buy a chink mouse, don't spend more than $30. FYI - ALL mice are chink shit and will break eventually.

>>724075939
did they make shiny one or has it been polished in use? bought mine used couple years ago for 5 bucks or whatever. dunno how old it is originally, but it's matte black and the logo has been worn out or it's just meant to be like black on black hard to notice

I've been using a deathadder v2 for 3 years now and never had a single issue, haven't even had to clean it yet

>>724075939
get the chink improved(lighter,rechargeable,better sensor) one or learn to solder and add metal wheel, but a hotswap board, buy and solder a new encoder and new feet

>>724075976
the prices for this are varying wildly on aliexpress. either this is old stock and chang needs to clear it out for the newer model or there are a lot of fakes
>20bux

>>724076154
it has 8 years man, i consumed its surface that's why

g203 was the only logitech mouse that didnt shit the bed in regards to the scroll wheel to me, cheapest too

g502x plus and most recently a superlight x, both got scroll wheel issues like within a year of usage. logitech fucking sucks

>>724076193
Same. Had a G703 previously, which is arguably a much shaped mouse, but I got used to the Deathadder being smaller in a few weeks. The G703's scroll wheel died within a year, and after 2 it not only started double clicking, but triple clicking as well. What a piece of shit.

>>724074079 (OP)

G502 X

>>724076220
That just sounds retarded. It's already too almost light and it's possibly to make it lighter without buying shit anyway if you really need to.
Recharging on a mouse where single aa battery lasts year or more?
Sensor I don't know. The sensor does it job. It works.

>>724074079 (OP)
it has really shitty scroll, but for the money its a solid mouse with very good sensor

>>724075227
sorry about your hygene

>>724076193
before swapping to G305 i went through 3 death adders, they lasted me less than a year each. haven't bought anything from razor since

>>724075584
dead G Pros?
3
dead Model Ds?
0
fuck you

>>724074079 (OP)
I had two of these. Both had its scroll wheel fucked up in a year. G502 same story. Logitech is on my blacklist now.

>>724074079 (OP)
Razer Naga is unironically a good mouse type to get on a budget if you can find one.

>>724074079 (OP)
>logitech m100r

the best mouse i've ever had

>>724076114
some are better quality china shit though.

>>724076729
What'd you do to them?

>>724074079 (OP)
if all of your scroll wheels die, it's probably because you have the negative habit of having dirty hands before using your mouse. Scroll wheels are suspetable to dirt. Try washing your hands before using your keyboard and mouse. This will increase the lifespan of your keyboard, too.

>>724074079 (OP)
I have had the same scroll wheel issue as well

>>724075073
Logitech is the only brand under 150 dollars that doesn't have jitter. Its basically the only thing they are good at

op disgusting ass deathgrips his meat, don't wash his hand after finishing then deathgrips his mice

G703 bros, where we at?

Love my enormous thumb buttons

>>724076528
>>724075073

I'm using a Logitech G403 and it's double clicking sometimes which is annoying as shit, but I love the simple mouse shape, it's comfortable to hold at least. Does anyone know of a good mouse that's like Logitech?

>>724075762
I bought an Attack Shark G3 I think, it's all the same chinkmouse they rebrand.
It was tiny, it was super light and it had very crisp clicks but I didn't feel comfortable using it so I went with the G309.

I donated it to a friend who had a shit mouse and his KD went positive

>not using the 7 inch HUGE (tm)
Only real men in this thread please.

>>724075657
I agree that the clicking the mouse wheel is definitely the weakest click.
Scrolling and side buttons feel very good though. Finger buttons are good.

>>724074079 (OP)
good mice don't get made anymore, you either get some beige high end office mouse from 2003 or you accept that you're going to have to replace your mouse every year because of planned obsolescence

>>724076729
the first mouse I bought for myself was a DeathAdder 3500. It lasted almost 10 years of daily use before the scroll wheel gave out. stop cumming on your mice anon

>>724074079 (OP)
I have a 102, looks exactly like that and the wheel got fucked after like 2 months
I physically can't click the middle button without scrolling the wheel to find a specific position where I can. It's a shame because it's the perfect mouse other than that problem

>>724075939
I have gone through at least 3 G305's in the last 8 years or so. Double clicking appeared on all of them within 2 years.
309 has optical switches which should prevent this from happening. Otherwise G305 is absolute godlike.

>>724077730
I always have my hands clean, but I do admit that it could be a matter of dust accumulation. I'll see if I can open it and clean it up, or at least use some compressed air. And I actually just tested something quick, which was pressing on the wheel and scrolling up and down at least two full rotations each, and it kind of fixes the issue, so it's very likely that it's just dirty on the inside.

>>724078721
Bought a logitech G502 SE Hero at the end of 2020 for 30 euros on sale, fully expecting it to not last long after reading about the logitech doubleclick and shit.
Only swapped it last month to go wireless. It's still working completely fine, just with the side rubber worn out.
you guys just need to stop slamming the mouse on the desk everytime you lose

What's the K120 of mice? I just want a mouse without the modern bullshit, just one or two side buttons because having ctrl on the mouse is too convenient

>>724074079 (OP)
for me it's
LOGITECH
MX500/MX510/MX518
G400/G400s
G5V2/G500/G500s
and currently MX518/G400 LEGENDARY HERO

>>724074079 (OP)
I own a g102 for like 5 years now
I changed the scroll wheel because the rubber got swollen and started rubbing against the buttons

idk what the fuck everyone is talking about

>>724079309
The real problem with modern mice is that it's a total diceroll, so you might get a good mouse first try while somebody else buys 5 mice over time and gets five mice that die in 6 months.

let me guess, you need "more"

I don't even understand how because I'm a healthy and clean person yet my peripherals always get a bit greasy/dirty around the keys and buttons.

>>724078721
I think this is because of Amazon. When you are buying a mouse from amazon you are often buying a mouse that has been returned, "refurbished" then resold dozens of times.

>>724074079 (OP)
Still rocking G102 from 2017, all button are fucked lmao, left click right click, button 3 button 4 registered twice. Scroll wheel can't be clicked, can still scroll tho. I'm fine with it.

>>724074079 (OP)
>have a 203 for over 5 years
It took until the past few months for one of the mouse buttons to begin double-clicking (not even that often) and earlier this year one of the side buttons began double-clicking.
Are you faggots manhandling and throwing and slamming your mouses constantly to tear them up so fast?

>>724079112
I have very high confidence this till will fix your scroll wheel issue. I will add dust accumulation, too, to this reasons why scroll wheels malfunction.

>>724080320
I have unironic spergouts when I'm losing at a videogame

>>724080373
Yeah I used to get real heated when I played dota 10+ years ago but I wouldn't damage my physical possessions lol oh well I understand you

How safe is it to open a g102? I usually break my shit when I try to open and clean them

>>724074079 (OP)
I will never use a wired mouse again. Fuck cable snag/drag.
>>724074250
I like the O minus but these shit break so easily. Scroll wheel just broke on my third O minus this one didn't even last a year. I just bought a model D 2 pro as it was on clearance for $30 and the right click was dodgy out of the box.

Got 4x xrtfy m42 wireless which I got on sale as backup mice but the model O- feels better.

>>724080113
Your body is always going to be excreting some kind of oil, especially with prolonged use, but if it's creating problems then you're clearly not as clean as you thought.

>>724080113
Because no matter how clean you are, your skin will always be a little bit oily and it wil always shed. It's just a fact of life. Just clean your shit every now and then.

i used a g300 for years and when it broke i got another one and that one died in a year
logitech has good keyboards but the quality feels completely random when it comes to mice

>>724076193
have had two deathadders and both ended up having a busted middle click after lkike a year. the second one straight up stopped scrolling too

>>724074079 (OP)
OP I have the exact same mouse and I bought it because I heard it has no double clicking issues, and so far its been perfect for clicking.
But I did develop the exact same issue with the scroll wheel not working well after like 6 months.

But then one day I got really annoyed and mashed/pushed down on it and scrolled really hard for like 20 seconds and now it works perfectly again. Maybe try doing that or blowing some compressed air in there.

>>724074079 (OP)
I had to throw away 2 of them, the scroll wheel just gunks up and gets stuck. Awful.
You can replace it with a metal one if you buy a replacement online but honestly, cheap chinese mice with better sensors and similar form factors are a dime a dozen AND usually cost less.

I will miss them dearly though, those mice served me great.

>>724075538
I have a K10 Pro
except for one of the rubber feet ungluing itself, it's a very good keyboard

>>724074079 (OP)
razer viper mini, if you want a small one

>>724074079 (OP)
the g102 is the exactly the same mouse but you can find it under $10 in temu

Any mouse for playing one-handed while I'm doing anything with the other hand?

>>724081958
every mouse is one-handed anon

let me guess, you need more?

>>724082125
>he doesn't double wield his mouse for extra damage

>>724078721
This is more just the nature of the modern mouse. The switch that is used because it has low latency just can not survive many clicks. Scroll wheels are simply a faulty system. Optical switches are replacing Omicrom switches but they also inroduce potental failure points into the system.

>>724082125
A mouse that can substitute wasd.

>>724080235
yeah, people will rebuy their model then return their shit one and keep the new one so someone else gets the shit one. op, try to see if logitech will replace it if you're still under warranty. they were really good about that in the past.

i bet this mouse doesn't have double clicking and scroll wheel death

>>724076193
this cracka know what's up

>>724074079 (OP)
That is from the copper parts getting oxydised. Just scroll it really fast for some time and it will go back to normal. Or turn the mouse upside down and roll the scroll wheel on a table. Its a well known issue with thease things

>>724085239
Delete this

you don't need more

>>724074250
The colors are a bit off.

>>724074079 (OP)
Do you guys scroll with your feet?
I have this mouse for 5 years, not a single problem besides the feet being worn out.

>>724076193
Razer posters are shills. Dont buy this garbage

>>724089590
Razer stuff is overpriced and their software/driver suite is hot dogshit but the actual devices are fine if you buy them on sale

>>724076705
you dont have skin?

>>724085239
I got rid of a mouse that had a top like this for the same reason. It was full of cookie crumbs, chocolate, chip crumbs etc. Even that didnt bother me too much but it started smelling when I was eating a hamburger and some ground beef got stuck in there.

>>724085239
Quit eating Chips Ahoy directly over your fucking mouse

>>724089715

I had issues with G402 middle mouse click for years until I found out you just need to slap the mouse on the bottom a few times, now it works just fine. Contact spray might also help

i buy dollar chinkshit mouse and never had an issue
logitech, hp and dell have always crapped before a year or have design issues that make them unusable

>>724074079 (OP)
good wheels are near impossible to find now. even a high end mouse is gonna be a crapshoot on the wheel. any lower end mouse is guaranteed to have a shit wheel.

you can try your luck with aftermarket wheels from china

Thinking of getting picrel (Asus ROG Harpe Ace II).
It's overpriced as shit but it's the only modern mouse that still has the small USB dongle instead of a massive brick receiver.

>>724095050
>good wheels are near impossible to find now
why

>>724095232
Most mice that have dedicated docks + receivers use the dock as a USB port for a small dongle

>>724096289
They used to but not anymore. All the new models sans logishit come with a brick receiver and I'm not wasting any more money on logishit.

>>724096447
Stop buying big brands then, buy a Dareu piece of shit or something

Cheapest decent mouse is G305.

So, gamepads seem to have figured out hall effect/tmr/whatever the fuck, what about the mice? Is the double clicking just inevitable?

>>724096535
Chink mouses are the same now. Big 8k receiver brick.

>>724096854
Analog input is the big draw for those, pointless when it's an on/off binary input
In Logitech it's a voltage mismatch issue for the switches iirc

My stupid chinkmouse drops connection randomly for no reason but I'm still using it because it's the most comfortable mouse I have
Plus it was like $15 so I can't regret buying it

I bought a razer viper v3 hyperspeed for 45 bucks on sale. It has a tiny usb dongle. But it does use AA batteries instead of usb charging, which I prefer since I have rechargeable AA batteries and I can just swap on the fly.

why do all peripherals with decent specs have to throw in RGB cancer for no reason

>>724101147
Because throwing RGB has become so cheap and common that sometimes it's cheaper than a non-RGB equivalent, and it's a non-issue since you can either just turn it off or set it to one color.

>>724095679
aside from cost cutting, i think it's because people have a preference for wheels that have short/rapid clicks because it's more responsive. but this requires the internal gear mechanism to be finer-grained than they used to be and the teeth are likely physically smaller to not increase cost. so they wear out much faster leading to both issues with missed detections and double-clicks. to counter this you would need more durable material - denser plastic or metal parts. which the manufacturers don't want because they have to custom order it for $0.20/unit while the shit parts that are premade and ready to ship from a warehouse cost $0.003/unit

>>724101257
Yeah people gotta realize it's not 1994 anymore and LEDs don't cost any credible amount to add
