Hi Guys. I currently have a Razer Naga 2014 but the scroll wheel has been broken for a long time, (it won't scroll properly).

This is starting to annoy me, therefore I need a new mouse. I'd like a mouse with buttons on it, like the Naga.

Preferably 3 or more buttons but at the same time, I don't want a Razer product because I am afraid to run into the same issue with the scroll wheel.

 

Any recommendations for a new mouse that would suit my needs?

 

Thanks.

Mice is something extremely personal but it's a consensus that Corsair and Logitech makes the best ones so you should probably research the models these brands have to offer if you want something of good quality and endurance.

 

I personally use the M65 Pro which I very much enjoy but like I said only you can tell what will please you the most.

Glorious Model O is insane for the price.

 

If you want wireless go for the G Pro Wireless, or the G502 Lightspeed if you like heavy mice.

My 1st gaming mouse is the Logitech G300S. It's a great cheap mouse with ambidextrous shape and 6 additional buttons, decent sensor, I was pleased by its performance but unfortunately its size is too small which makes it feel like crap under my hand.

 

Then I moved to Roccat Tyon as at the time I dont like wireless mouse because battery life and weight concerns. But not long with this one because I found myself dont like the cable drags of a wired mouse. I feel a cable drag is more annoying than having a heavier mouse without cable.

 

After that problems, I want a good wireless mouse, and I fell into a Logitech G703 wireless, because the G Pro Wireless is too expensive, and the Roccat Leadr which suits my needs by its features the most is way too heavy than what I can tolerate.

 

So I would recommend the Logitech G703 if you want to get good wireless without being too heavy and too expensive and if you hate cable drags.

I suggest looking at Rocket Jump Ninja top 40 list.

Measure your hand and stuff, he explains it all on his website and on youtube.

 

Mice atm come with good sensors, it's all about the shape and comfort nowadays.

 

Good luck

Still based on rocketjumpninja's statements, the Logitech G403/G703 was the top rated mouse before the Logitech G Pro Wireless came out..

Dont look at the top "rated". This has to do with his grip style, hand size and comfort, alongside hows the mouse quality.

 

His top One wont be neccesarily Your top One.

Choose what's best for your grip style and size.

I know. You also can see on his list that his personal top choices is not the G703 nor the G Pro Wireless. But he made the top 40 as a general list not as it's his own personal favorite. He mentioned that the best mouse is the G Pro Wireless and the G403/G703 were the best before GPW came out but they're not necessarily become his favorite mice.

 

You can see clearly on his own Personal Favorite list vs the Top 40 list.

 

And my current favorite is the G703 I'm using right now, as it suits my hand size and grip style perfectly, cable drag free, it has great performance, lightweight (as a wireless) and balance weight distribution, good battery life.
