Razer lancehead upgrade

[markr54632]

Right now I am using a Razer lancehead wireless mouse. I like the way it feels, I like the size, shape, and weight. The sensor seems nice, although really anything with a high enough dpi that allows me to span my multiple monitors without lifting the mouse would be fine.

 

I cant use it wirelessly because it prompts to install the razer chroma software everytime the dongle is plugged in, so most of the time it gets used wired. I also do not like the proprietary charging cable (not a deal breaker tho). I would prefer something without all the goofy rgb lighting and some decent battery life (this thing gets like 8-12 hours, less if a game is controlling the lighting, definitely a deal breaker). 

 

Mouse will be used for some gaming, and alot of productivity work.

I guess I should clarify I would like to replace this mouse with something similar that is not made by Razer.

Under 99 would be nice. The lower the better at this point. I cant return the lancehead and it is pretty much unusable for 99 percent of my use case. Around 70 would be great.

i would recommend the G604, basically a productivity mouse designed for gamers imo, a lot of features including the infinite scroll and Bluetooth connectivity

I've seen that one, I kind of like the smaller mouse shape without the thumb thing. I also cannot stand having all the buttons on the side. I constantly hit them with my thumb and they never get used for anything.

are there any features you would like besides being wireless?

Pretty much looking for something as close as possible to what I have, just from a different manufacturer, one that doesnt prompt for software install when you plug in the wireless dongle. And with better battery life, I dont really care about rgb or lighting, but it would be preferable if it could be turned off without having separate software.

the g305 is what i could think of at the moment, given it is the most similar one i could think of, would probably recommend you to check out the g603 or the g703
