Need a mouse for work.

Vortex1496 · January 9, 2016

So i'm the most indecisive person in the world, but i want a new mouse (and keyboard but i think rosewell with mx browns would be a fine keyboard for work.)

So I work in IT and half the time I have like 8 computers on my desk and 4 projects and typically am using my mouse on whatever happens to be flat and big enough to be reasonably useable.

A little mouse history, I LOVE my g600 like if that mouse broke tomorrow for whatever reason i would just buy another one the next day. I keep it at like 1600 to about 1700dpi. However, that mouse isn't going to work for work because it's weird and too big (that hurts me to have to say). My current mouse at work is a Logitech m510 its ok maybe alittle big but the sensor is the most inaccurate thing i have ever used(this is why i want a new mouse), it's also not the most ergonomic thing i have ever used either.

So i was thinking about getting the Logitech anywhere 2 but it looks the same as the Anywhere mx first gen but more expensive then there is the Razer Orochi that i like for some reason(i have no idea why it just looks cool i suppose).

Does anyone have any advice for me? Any suggestions on mice would also be helpful.

I would get a Logitech trackball mouse(the one you spin the ball with your thumb) if I wasn't using my pc for gaming... Thats just my preference, but the dpi is really low they need to come out with a new one...

Some of our users have those on the odd chance i actually have to go to one of their desks and physically use there computer for something. It's odd for sure but by the time i'm done with whatever i'm doing i'm typically getting used to it, don't think i could permanently switch however.

yeah it's a good mouse for some but the whole thumb shelf thing is more annoying than anything else for me, not to mention it's too big for my work space.

well trackball were the first mice I learned to use, because my dad and his family... I just think they are very comfortable for extended use, and no one cares for the mouse I am using now, because its for claw grip and its like 5 years old... but I love it (side note, might have to get the better version of my mouse since I'm getting a higher resolution screen. or does dpi and ppi not relate like that?[well I know they are partially related])
