Choosing between 2 mice

Hello,  I am currently looking at Razer's Mamba & Lancehead mice and would like to know which one would you guys recommend. I have read something about Mamba not being good build quality and breaking after just few months use - is this true ? How is with Lancehead on the other hand ? Also, is it worth paying more and getting wireless options for each of them ?

 

Thanks in advance !

I've had the Mamba Tournament Edition for 2 years now. No issues whatsoever. 

No clue on the Lancehead.

If you're competitive gaming than I would stick to wired. Casual playing and normal use, wireless is fine.

 

I'd recommend something like Logitech's G502. I love it.

My brother is using Mamba for over a year now and its working perfectly fine. He bough it after his G402 Hyperion Fury died is less than 6 months, so yeah.

I'm currently using Deathadder for 2 years now and I have no issues with it. So theres that.

 

I wouldn't pick wireless mouse because I don't like heavy mouses.

Main system: Ryzen 7 7800X3D / Asus TUF Gaming B650-Plus / G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO 32GB 6000Mhz / Zotac RTX 5090 SOLID OC/ x2 WD_BLACK NS770 2TBs/ Corsair HX1000i/ NZXT H5 Flow

Wirless is fine even if you're playing competetively, if it's from logitech, razer or something like that (the higher end ones) I'm playing cs:go and stuff with a g703 and it's by far the best mouse I've had for it. But if possible I'd say go to a store and and try out a few mice, see which one fits in your hands the best, cause most mice from reputable brands nowadays are more than enough for casual gaming.
