Best mouse under $80
everybody says optical and laser are just personal preference, but since my bad experience with the g400s i think optical are not for me
What happened is pixart (company with monopoly on building mouse sensors) ruined the 3090 sensor. It was designed to have a max dpi no higher then 3500 and then for marketing hype they increased the max to 4000 and it ruined the feel of the sensor because it required massive smoothing. The S3988 sensor in the 2013 deathadder and deathadder chroma has a similar issue. But if you get a modern optical mouse, using the 3310, 3366, or the AM010 optical sensor you should be fine.
There aren't good and bad things about optical and laser. There are good and bad things about individual sensors. Unfortunately all modern laser sensors have significant acceleration. In the future, there could be good laser sensors. While there is no flaw with the 3366 or 3310 and only a relatively low max speed for the AM010 that 99% of people won't reach. AM010 and 3366 right now are Logitech exclusive. The g502 has the 3366, while the g602, g402, g302, and the g100s has the AM010. Every optical mouse with a max dpi of 5,000 has a 3310 sensor. The Mionix 7000 series also has a 3310 sensor, and the zowie fk1 also has a 3310 sensor. Corsair's implementation of the 3310 is worse then average. Zowie's implementation of the 3310 sensor is better then average.
