Razer Deathadder Chroma vs. Logitech g502 Proteus Core

Background: My hands are long and skinny and I have been using a Razer Orochi for a couple of years and it just died on me, the mouse was way to small but I liked where the buttons were on it. I have been looking into the Deathadder and G502 proteus core, but I welcome any suggestions.

 

Requirements:

Large

Macros

Wired

Decent/Good Sensor

 

 

Thanks  :)

The G502 is smaller than the razer but I really like the placement of the buttons as well as the scroll wheel.  If you choose the G502, wait for the Proteus Spectrum to come out.

Yep.  It's the same price as the Proteus core so there's no point in buying a core right now.

Yeah the spectrum is RGB.

 

I recommend G502.

Don't really know what to put here.

Really? At Best Buy the Proteus is $50 and the Spectrum is $79

They dropped the price of the core and added the spectrum at the same price as the previous core.

"It's the same price as the Proteus core so there's no point in buying a core right now." So there is a point to buy the Proteus Core

Had it been a Razer adding RGB and nothing else to one of their existing non-RGB products, the price would have gone up.

The Logitech one is more refined than the Razer one.  I rock a Deathadder myself and don't have any issues with it.  Razer just gets stereotyped a lot, I am not exactly a fanboy of them... well... may be just a little bit somehow.  Generally, I see them functionally the same mouse.  Trying them myself, I don't see a difference but I am no eSports pro.  So it is pretty much down to aesthetics.
