    Logitech G502 is an awesome wired mouse, and the Mx Master 2S is the best mouse I’ve ever had. Both are worth considering. Both have a wheel that can free spin if you want, which is nicer than you might initially think. The master has a lot of cool shit it does, and has shockingly low latency for a wireless mouse.

    Razer Deathadders are extremely popular, but just know that Razer peripherals have (or used to have) high failure rates. I had 2 different adders that failed under normal use in about a year before I ended up with the Logitech options I mentioned above. Had both Logitech mice for several years - no issues.

      The high failure rates of both Razer and recently Logitech made me try the Razer Basilisk with the optical switches. So far so good on multiclick failures, and it works fine without Razer’s garbage software. It’s a 502 knockoff ergonomically, so its also got that going for it.

      I just with someone would recreate the G701 with optical or hall switches, and a decent battery life.

      We have similar tastes in mice. I have a bunch of variants of the MX Master mice, some from old jobs, some I purchased outright. The full sized clicker variant is my favorite. I can’t vibe with the soft-click buttons like I can with the clickies. They’re all decent mice though and work well under Linux and even Android. I have a very similar Logitech (but including wireless) and it’s great for gaming. I remapped the forward and backward keys to raise and lower DPI using a Linux tool (I forget what it was, probably Piper). Now it’s perfect. I don’t see myself buying a mouse for quite some time.

      I haven’t been crazy about Razer stuff. Had a keyboard die and a mouse that was meh.

      Tl:dr the user above me is right and knows their mice!

      Thanks! Yeah I have a Logitech G500s and a Razer Basilisk V3 X Hyper speed right now. After using my computer for a while, my wrist gets uncomfortable. I’m thinking of moving to a vertical mouse. Maybe a Keychron M5 or a Logitech MX Vertical.
