Well, my Razr mouse is dying. What gaming mice do you all recommend?
Bluetooth doesn't work on my Razr mouse anymore and my brother has also had bad charging issues with his Razr. Thinking of switching to a different brand, so what do you all use?

I use logitech g503 (wired) since 2019. I had to replace switch/clicker under right mouse button. It is still pretty decent mouse tbh.
I had to replace switch/clicker under right mouse button.
I have a similar model to this and while they do go for pretty cheap and are decent quality, be aware you'll need to replace switches after like 2-3 years of use. Mine also had issues with both left and right click and replacing the switches wasn't as easy as I'd liked.
Same with my g502 with 2 years of use. The right switch being the problem in my case. And I'm not that inclined to replace the switch.
The sensor is great, but quality of the switches not so much.
Don’t ever under any circumstances give money to Logitech, worst mouse maker I have had the misfortune in dealing with.
I actually switched from Logitech to Razer after the left mouse button on my G502 died. I tried out a few other brands but nothing comes close to the shape of the G502 except the Basilisk. The Hyperspeed is typically 1/3 the price of the Lightspeed.
Their keyboards suck as well. The G710 was the GOAT but they've been trash since they stopped using cherry switches. I was eyeing the MX Mechanical for the longest time before I realized that Keychron makes a superior keyboard at half the price.
I have only good experience with Logitech mice, except one time with Performance MX, but I got it replaced for a new one without issues.
I've had a G502 and G403 wireless for years now and they've been solid.
What's your experience?
The Logitech G305 is the single best budget wireless mouse ever and nothing will change my mind about it. I've had it for about a year now and my friend, who got me to buy the G305, has had his for 4-5 years.
No problems so far for either of us, but I wouldn't discard the possibility of it happening to me since I've had it only for a year so far. Altough he has had it for 4-5 years and it still works like new.
The G502 is like the "standard" gaming mouse at this point. I have two, one for work and one at home.
It's nothing over the top but it's perfectly adequate, great shape, good weight, top of the line accuracy.
Used a Razer Deathadder for years and switched to a Zowie EC-2B. Identical form and measures and a lot more reliable.
Logitech usually has something good, like the G502 series. I heard decent stuff about Steelseries, but haven't reid them. I bought Roccat Kone a while back because they supported Linux drivers and it lasted a long time and was surprisingly good. It too eventually broke though, just like any gaming mouse.
Do new 502s have the same button issues the 903s have? My old 502 is going strong but is pretty ugly at this point but I'm afraid a replacement would be lower quality.
Very satisfied with the logitech g50x series. Currently using a 502hero. Fits my hand perfectly, programmable, adjustable weight, unlockable scrollwheel (which I cant live without anymore) and the price is okay.
Seconding the G502. I bought mine back in 2014 and it's still going strong! My favorite mouse of all time
Have been using a steelseries sensei type mouse for a long while now.
In my years of PC gaming i have learned that i don't need a bells and whistles on my mouse and keyboard.
For keyboard i'm using a DASkeyboard and i don't think ill ever use anything else.
The sensei and the rival are great mice that you can't go wrong with. And I'm still using a tt eSports meka g1 black cherry mechanical keyboard that is a decade old that I swear is buyitforlife
Logitech G Pro Wireless with the Soarking Charging Dock. Normally a wired mouse fan but this mouse is top notch.
I can't speak for the charging dock (is that worth it?), but I can second this mouse. It's solidly reliable and holds a charge for a long time. I was getting annoyed of the wire causing pull, anyway.
IME the Logitech G305 wireless has been great for me. Good battery life, very responsive, and feels great.
I also have a Model D wireless which I prefer the feel of better, but the battery life is awful by comparison to the G305.
I have a glorious model O which is decent, though I would get a G502 if I had to buy another one.
Logitech G600. Yes, it's wired and a bit old but it is EXTREMELY reliable, easy to program, and VERY comfortable. It's so good that I have 5 of them; 1 that I'm using and 4 to replace it with when this one dies.
I've gone through quite a few different mmo mice, I always go back to the G600. I'm on my third mouse right now, probably should just get good enough at soldering to replace the left click button when it wears out.
I keep hoping for something spiffy to replace it but nothing does! I've gotten so used to the pinky button on the g600 that at this point any replacement would have to have that.
Thought about checking out Azeron's project cheddar mouse. But as I don't really -need- a new mouse it's a bit out of my budget.
I'll second this. I got mine after caving in to all the good reviews of it. Stupid good for a mouse, if this one ever dies, I'll buy a second one.
I have had nothing but problems with Razr. I suggest one the Logitech gaming mice. I love my g900.
I really like razor, when my synapse dies I'm just goma get another TBH. Also there are some really decent $20 gaming mice on amazon, just read reviews.
I use the Corsair Dark Core rgb pro se. But that's mostly because I wanted both a thumb and pinky rest.
I'll jump in here to ask. Does anyone have a good replacement for an old MMO mouse with 12 thumb buttons.
I've had three of them, without fail after a year the scroll wheel just stops working. Not gonna say I probably didn't overuse it, I love making sure I'm zoomed out, especially with most games tendency to zoom in whenever it's horribly inconvenient, but it seemed to stretch incredulity with how much they just decided to stop scrolling with multiple iterations.
I've been loving my Steel Series Aerox 9 wireless. I got it on amazon for 30% off, because the standard price is pretty steep. I've only had it for about a month now so I can't talk to longevity but I haven't had any complaints yet
I use Balilisks for all my computers now. None of them have failed. All of my Logitech mice fail in a year or just a little more.
Its not a “gaming” mouse but its still a high quality mouse, I got the Logitech MX Vertical and it’s spectacular
Always wanted that mouse but always been weirded out - would you say there was an adjustment period to get used to a vertical mouse?
I didnt expect much of an adjustment period and there was even less of an adjustment period than that. Granted i do not have a claw grip and like to rest my whole hand on mice so coming from that then yes Id say theres at least a little adjustment but for someone like me it feels really natural, more like its a tool rather than an input device
