Hello guys, 

my actual mouse (crappy thing) is having some troubles and since I'm still under warranty, I'm going to bring it back. Since it's pretty hard to use a computer without a mouse, I'd like to get one for the same price (25 euro), more or less. I've searched a bit through amazon and found tons of unknown brands that sell them for 9 euros, so I'm a bit skeptical about that.
Do you know a decent mouse in that price range? 

 

I don't care if it's wireless or not, but if it's wireless it'll be better.
Also, if it's has RGB lighting would be perfect, but I highly doubt it.

Do not buy a no-name wireless mouse for that cheap. It will break over time. If you want a cheap wireless mouse (not for gaming), go with a trusted brand like Logitech https://www.amazon.fr/Logitech-Wireless-Mouse-Souris-sans-fil/dp/B00552K0GM/ref=sr_1_1?s=english-books&ie=UTF8&qid=1479491110&sr=8-1&keywords=logitech+wireless+mouse  EDIT: this is just one, there are tons of cheap Logitech mice on amazon)

(I assumed youre in Belgium given ur name...)

 

If you want a "gaming" mouse, stick with wired in that price range.

When in doubt, re-format.

Ok thx, so If I want quality, I might as well forget RBG lighting and stick with dem wires?

Yea, I'm sure there are SOME cheap wired gaming mice in the 25E range to be found, but if you want it to be reliable AND have all the bling, I would definitely recommend getting something "more solid". Consider it an investment, because a good mouse can last you several builds.

When in doubt, re-format.

Check Microsoft's store you can get a basic optical mouse for dirt cheap from a reliable brand. You can also view the wireless option (not as cheap though)

Ok thanks :) 

One last question : How much should I play for a bling bling (:p) wired mouse with colors lighting?

I live in Canada, so I don't have a good baseline because our prices are shit for most of these things. I know that decent Logitech and Razer mice with bling are in the $75-100 range, So I would guess somewhere in the 50E or so range. Basically, you cant go wrong if you go with a trusted brand (Logitech, Razer, Steelseries, Corsair, Asus + some others) I have seen reviews of good cheap gaming mice but I prefer to stick with the pricier options as I like to go all out when I build.

 

Mice are very subjective though and you can spend $150 on one and not actually like how it feels in your hand, even though your best friend says its the greatest mouse he's ever used. If you have the ability to go to a computer store that actually has some of these on display, I would highly recommend you actually go in and try to use them to see if you like how they feel. Then order it on amazon because its cheaper most of the time.

I'll try that out. Thanks :) 
Probably going to discard this kind of mice, then :P

Hello, have you ever heard about NPET? If yes, is it a reliable brand?
