Which mouse to buy?

OK guys the decision has been made. The g502 was my chosen mouse. Thanks guys!

 

Hi LTT forums.

I am just a wild CS:GO player looking for a decent mouse for gaming. I currently use a Steelseries Kinzu v2 and would like an upgrade. I am right handed, I use a fingertip grip and my hands are approximately 18cm long. Here is what I'd like from my mouse:

. Accuracy is a must.
. Buttons on the side are equally important (I don't need a 12 button MMO mouse, two would be fine).

. As for weight I prefer medium light-medium.

. Aesthetics are nice, but I don't care that much so long as it doesn't look like someone took a dump on my mouse mat.

. In terms of comfort my Kinzu v2 is great but I'd be willing to adjust to a slightly different shape so long as it still works with a fingertip grip.


All help is appreciated greatly.

Or 402 if on budget, same sensor w/o RGB or weight tuning. Eez egg-saladant

The G502 comes in blue or RGB, unless the SKU's were folded.

If you fingertip grip, take a look at the Logitech G Pro. People who suggest the brick G502 for fingertip grip and CS GO obviously don't know anything about gaming mice.

The new one is RGB, the old one blue. The 402 doesn't have that option but has the same internals

They have different internals. The G502 uses the PWM3366 sensor, while the G402 has a lower end AM010 sensor with a gyro to fix the low maximum tracking speed. Not to mention that it's not suitable for fingertip grip at all.
