What mice do you have?
What mice do you want?
I'm looking at buying a mouse for my Dell XPS 15, since the trackpad still unfortunately sucks.
I have a Razer gaming mouse for my desktop, and a magic mouse for my MacBook Pro, but want something cheap, yet elegant and nice for my XPS. Suggestions?

>I have a Razer gaming mouse for my desktop
i am all into razer, but shit's kinda expensive. am using a ms sidewinder mouse at work, works great and is better for the bank
I was using a Logitech G400 ( the popular one). However i started developing wrist fatigue, as I have manlet hands and the G400 is huge.
So I ended up seeing this mouse on sale, decided to pick it up for temporary reasons, turned out to be quite good so I'm still using it for designing and gaming.
Red Dragon M601.
Has your usual gaming mouse bullshit like DPI Change, LED lights, thumb buttons.
The best part is it has adjustable weights.
Bad part is that the LED never turns off,unless you unplug the mouse.
Got it for 10$.
Used Razer Diamondback before, it was GOAT but lately had to click hard as fuck for it to register.
Very happy with Savu, it's pretty cheap and comfy.
Zowie FK1
has issues with the scroll wheel getting stuck, but asides from that it just werks and has the best sensor in any mouse I've used. May look into ricing it up some.
I have the SS Rival (OP's picture)
rubber thing on the side is coming apart
>>53982461
the rival 100 is infamous for having issues with that. I've heard they fixed it with the 300's release, but wouldn't know firsthand.
>>53982502
Eh, if I buy another I will switch anyways.
Logitech G303
Sup with best sensor on the market?
I got the newest models of the Corsair sabre RGB (with 10K DPI) and the Corsair M65 (with 12K DPI). They're the best mice I've ever owned! Pic is the Sabre.
>>53982317
That's the mouse that I use at work. I had a Redragon lavawolf 701 that I was using at home, but I dropped a laptop on it and it crushed the left click.
I have a g500, along with 2x MX Masters
gud shit
Was a long term Logitech fanboy, I've only bought 1 MX518 years ago and when they break their top tier customer support send me another. When they stopped making MXs they sent me a G400 instead which was just as good.
Decided to try a roccat savu after that and hated it. The model I had broke after a few months and the back button would only work if I was holding down M1.
Then I bought a Razor Deathadder Chroma and I'm sold, best mouse I've ever used.

what's wrong with logitech?
>>53982936
Nothing, just fancied a change. Using one at work now as it happens.

Get on my level. My gaming mouse. The logo has worn off.
>>53982960
Kek. Those are PS2 iirc
>>53982952
Not everyone on the internet is mean
>>53982998
Its usb ;)
>>53982724
I love this mouse
Logitech G402, comfiest mouse I've had by far. The grip and dpi are perfect for both regular use and gaming. I do want to try the deathadder though since so many people love it.
>>53983296
I really want a talon blu, thermaltake is making big moves with this thing
>perfect switches
>perfect sensor
>huge DPI range
>$20
>>53981459
I use the steel series rival. It's pretty good, I've had it for maybe 2 years now and its been pretty solid.
>perfect switches
>perfect sensor
>comfy shape
>PBT body, no coating to wear off
>no drivers or software
>muh arrgeebee lighting
Might as well personal blog.

JUST
>>53982317
Had one. Went full autistic and broke it. Now got another in the mail. Good mouse.
>>53981653
Actually I play CSGO a lot and I loved my infared Deathadder, it's a shame Razer stuff is meme-tier, the side buttons stopped working and the scroll wheel became unreliable.
I went to the CSGO major and saw the CSGO edition Steelseries Rival, it was functionally identical to the Deathadder and it was only 40 dollars so I bought it and it's really nice. I miss the weight of the Deathadder though, the infared sensor (supposed to be marginally better than laser and optical) was heavy as fuuuuck and I loved the feel of how heavy it was
This thing. It's pretty good
ps2 port > usb
>>53983167
Deathadder was amazing maaannn but Razer is shit :'(
The side buttons break quickly (less than a year) and the scroll wheel becomes unreliable after about 2 years
Steelseries Rival is functionally the same, I just got one as my replacement and it's really nice.
Have SS Rival 300, it's pretty good, no defects after few months of use
Although I like it, it does cost a lot of money when compared to other mice I've used and it doesn't magically make me better at games or life, so I atleast hope it will last 2+ years without any bullshit, if not, expensive mice are a meme
what does /g/ think about the rat mouse?
Steel Series Raw.
Fuck bitches adjust dpi.
i have a logitech g9 and a g9x. i bought the g9x as a backup as soon as i heard that it's been discontinued.
best mouse i've ever used, it's super comfy. the braided cable is shit, though.
>>53984619
Had a R.A.T. 3 and 2 R.A.T. 5s. The 3 is still working fine, both 5s started having problems after a few months.
Shape is surprisingly comfortable.
R.A.T. 5 and up are heavy fuckers, even with weights removed.
Sensor in R.A.T. 3 is good, but the laser sensor in the higher models suffers from the Z-axis bug (cursor jumps when lifting the mouse and putting it back down).
Coating on the matte models is kinda prone to wear, glossy models get dirty real quick.
>>53981459
Own the mouse in OP pic.
Served me well for over a year now, didn't have any of the build quality issues. Great size and fit. Liking it more than i thought i would.
>>53984201
Ay I was there as well. What pin you get?
If only the MX Master had a wired counterpart.
>>53984619
>>53985754
G700s mater race
>>53986149
>tfw i want to be bald because hair is annoying and cutting your hair takes time
literally the GOAT.
you can not name a better mouse.
>>53986919
mah nigga
>>53985573
Me too. Only con is the LOD which is too high.
I've been using a Thermaltake Black Element for around three years now, only issue so far was the mouse wheel randomly registering double clicks. I fixed it by bending the little plate on that switch a bit to give it tension again.
I bought this mouse because it was cheap and I am really happy with how good it is for what I paid.
I've got a G400 I've been using for a few years. Still running great. Although I'm terrified that when it dies I'll never be able to replace it for a reasonable price. It's really the perfect mouse, perfect sensor, comfy as fuck, great button placement. I guess it may suck for clawfags but you guys need to join the palm grip master race anyway.
>>53987106
It's gonna die anyway if you didn't do the cable fix already, mark my words.
got this a few days ago
Would prefer a quieter click and a tilt-wheel + 2 top buttons instead of 4 on top. But it fits my grip perfectly and has plenty of extra buttons
honestly don't use a wired mouse with laptops.
pic related is what I use with my macbook pro. comfy with long battery life, a bit heavy and looks kinda weird.
I have other mice with but this one is my favorite
>>53987151
It's been going for two or three years already, it'll be fine.
I have an ikari and its too small to palm grip for my hands. Is there anything quite bigger?
>>53984619
I fucking loved how incredibly heavy my RAT7 was. Sliding that thick bitch around was so comfortable. Shame the laser finally died after like 5 years.
What's a good replacement for the EC1-A that isn't a Deathadder or another EC1-A? Can't seem to get them any more in the UK.
[spoiler]My one has started having tracking issues and sticking to the sides of the screen until after 5 minutes of the PC being on.
I can RMA it but I thought I'd buy a new one and then return this one and use it at work if they fix it.[/spoiler]
>>53987707
Zowie partnered up with BenQ recently and will probably release new EC1-A versions with added BenQ logo. Hardware retailers in my country are getting them at the end of april it seems, so they will probably come to UK aswell soon
Is the Logitech G502 any good?
ordered a za-12, hope I'm not let down. I've got an fk14 which is the same size but without the hump.
Just bought the optical version if this, did I fuck up?
Tips on cleaning mice? I currently have the G502 and wipe the grime off with an alcohol wipe, or some screen cleaner on a microfibre cloth.
How the FUCK are you actually supposed to clean this bullshit part though?
>>53989456
Old toothbrush?
>>53987332
stole a couple of the black ones from my university excess box, now that the polling rate is at 1000 they work like a dream, gonna get a sheet of teflon tho to replace the shittyass stock feet
Zowie FK1 is a great mouse, highly recommend
>>53989456
is it one of those rubber pads that are glued on? Mine started getting a little loose so I just tore it off and washed both sides with warm water, after drying it stuck back on and held even better
>steelseries designs are great but performance is shit
>logitech designs are shit but performance is top of the line
>runs hands through golden hair*
Step aside.... filthy children
>>53984138
does right/left click feel loose to you? cus if i touch them without actually clicking them they rattle :<
>>53990750
They're separate from the rest of the shell and I can feel that they are. There's a tiny little bit of play before it hits the switch.
>>53983980
comfy
Just bought this. How'd I do?

Sensei raw for about 2 years
Fucking scroll wheel is breaking is typical steelseries fashion. Scroll down down down -- oh no, go back up a couple notches.
I have the steelseries rival. I really like it. Affordable, same guts as the more expensive mice, and you can turn off the rgb logo.
>>53991406
Have the 100 series, it's good for fps. A lot of csgo pros endorse it and I can see why
I'll probably go with the 300 next time though
>>53981459
Steelseries sensai raw.
Roccat Lua @ 500 DPI
Decent mouse I got for $20
>>53981459
I have one of these and I really dislike the bumpy rubber on the side for the thumb. My hands are always get sweaty so it would make sense to have it for a good grip right? Thing is the sweat makes it dirty too and that part of the mouse is really hard to clean, fucking disgusting dirt building up in between the bumps.
>>53981459
I have a Logitech B100
I want pic related because my Xornet 1's scroll wheel got rekt.
I have the Logitech "Discomforto" M100. This mouse is ergonomically designed to make you regret buying it, because it has a sharp corner and it's not comfortable.
I have been shopping for a new mouse lately and I'm appalled at how the market is so full of wireless shit. It don't even care about the performance aspect, I just don't get why I'd want a heavier mouse I have to recharge all the time just to remove one cable from the cable spaghetti. Fuck this.
>>53984619
Not enough corners. Could use a few spikes and razor blades too.
>>53981459
Have:
WMO
Abyssus
Kana
Kinzu V1
Kinzu V2
EC1
G100s
Want:
Not really that sold on anything else that is out right now. Favorite is G100s.
>>53987332
I use this for work.
My main complaints with it are the cord is heavy and stiff as fuck for how light the mouse is, and the plastic isn't the nicest feel.
For simple reliable control though, the design is fantastic.
GS700 Logitech Mouse & Logitech Gaming G500s Laser Mouse
Anything new?
>>53994587
I have that mouse. I will give it to a local thrift store along with other old tech that'll never use again by me.
>>53984619
I used a RAT3 for awhile. Swapped it out for one with more buttons. Then that one died and I got another. Then that one died and I got another.
Then that one died and I pulled by RAT3 back out and have been using it since.
>>53981459
Pic related is quite solid. Would recommend
>>53986919
I had one of the old models. my first "gaming" mouse. I loved how long it was since I have big hands and long fingers all these razer mice like the naga I have right now feel really short and make my hand cramp fast.
Zowie FK1
It's alright. Wish it were a bit heavier and faster to change the DPI though.
>>53982049
I just realized that the razer logo is cool as fuck, I love celtic stuff.
