Rinkles posted:Why do some people want heavier mice? Mostly out of habit? As a "casual", I wasn't a big fan of super light mice like the Viper. On the other hand, I think the Basilisk Ultimate is a bit heavier than ideal. My preference would probably be in the 80-90g range. That's why I'm tempted to try the wireless DeathAdder, but I'd likely prefer the ergonomics of the Basilisk and am tired of buying and returning mice at this point.

Sniper button no longer works as the g-shift key. I'm not sure if I did something or the software's bugging out. I can't find an option to reset to default settings (it's only available for onboard memory). Also for whatever reason, you can't g-shift scroll up or down. e:a reboot fixed it. in general, not a fan of G hub. e2:it happened again. this time with my old mouse.

Rinkles posted:Why do some people want heavier mice? Mostly out of habit? There's probably some human psychology involved where big heavy things just feel more solid and premium. I think for the majority of people the lighter the better in practice however. wolrah posted:What I don't get are people who used some middle weight combination on the adjustable mice. I can see someone who has a lot of muscle memory on a specific mouse wanting to keep the weight as close as possible when moving to a new one. It's pretty niche though.

Cefte posted:I did indeed, and updated to the newest (which achieved no change), and specifically asked the Razer rep about it, to be told that the Atheris doesn't have firmware. Which makes sense. As a mouse, it emerges spontaneously, from grain. 9/10 times it take no time at all to wake up, but once in a blue moon it refuses to wake unless I pick it up and put it back down a couple of times, could be my black mousepad though

Any wireless ambidextrous mouse suggestions? Wanna use it on my left hand a bit more as I work from home and feel like I'm edging closer and closer to carpal tunnel. I tried looking on Shopee but putting in ambidextrous mouse and I see some designs being sold under it that are very clearly not ambidextrous. And wireless because I has cat. Cat sees moving wire, cat pounce. Wireless!

Do you mean “has extra buttons on both sides” or “has an ambidextrous shape”? If you just need the ambi shape, there are a lot of options for wireless mice where the shape is ambi but they only have extra buttons for a right handed person. The Logitech 305 would probably be good if so. The G Pro Wireless is actually fully ambi afaik, but a lot more expensive. You could also try a vertical mouse or rollerball if you’re just looking for ergonomics. The above are all also gaming mice more or less (tho the 305 is reasonably priced)— I’m not sure if there’s something outside that world which would be better.

Thanks for the suggestions! Looked a few of these up and they cost a bomb, which I should've expected. Maybe the 305 will do since that's pretty reasonable price for a "spare but good on the left hand and still wireless" mouse! Shame on the lack of buttons on the right side but shouldn't be too big a deal

The Basilisk retains the G502/402's ridge at the left end of the LMB. Except they took off G7 and G8, so I keep trying to hit buttons that feel like they're there but aren't.

Couple months in with the Deathadder V2 wireless and I really love this mouse, holds a charge pretty well even with near constant use. I don't think I'd want a lighter mouse than this, and I was skepticle how much I'd appreciate wireless vs wired but it's great.

2 pronged question: For WAH office use, is the Logitech MX Master 3 basically the best option? For gaming use, if I love the G502 but wish it was wireless and lighter, is the G502 wireless the best option or should I consider a different manufacturer?

I have a mx master 3 for WAH use. It's a pretty nice mouse, and I like the thumb button/gestures available for the Mac OS. Swapping between virtual desktops and bringing up expose view is neat. I'm still not 100% sold on the scroll wheel though, but I'm getting used to it. So far no real complaints, and it's better than the 10-,year old mouse with tracking problems I used before.

Is there a way to disable acceleration (or cancel out if its built-in, as I understand it might be?) the mouse acceleration on a MX Master 3? I still keep an old G403 close by for the casual black ops zombie but I'd much rather not have to switch

LUBE UP YOUR BUTT posted:Is there a way to disable acceleration (or cancel out if its built-in, as I understand it might be?) the mouse acceleration on a MX Master 3? I still keep an old G403 close by for the casual black ops zombie but I'd much rather not have to switch Sensor acceleration is very different from windows/game mouse acceleration. Those work by accumulating the effect of motion events over short periods of time; sensor acceleration is the tendency for ratio between the physical distance the mouse moves and the number of events to change when the speed at which the mouse moves changes. The problem is as hard as calculating where your mouse is based on an initial position and the mouse events it has emitted, knowing that either some of those events are spurious or (in the case of negative acceleration) that there are "missing" events (i.e. the mouse has moved and didn't tell you). In short, your mouse manufacturer did their professional best when designing the mouse to linearize the distance:event relationship and you're unlikely to do any better without a lot of work.

I got a Logitech Performance MX that has been my mouse at work for like the past 8 years or something. it still works fine but I find the MX anywhere I use at home comfier since I dont have giant hands. Is there anything out there with similar stlying/button customisability that isnt logitech that is worth looking at besides the latest version of each of my current mice?

Josh Lyman posted:2 pronged question: For gaming, the Razer Basilisk Ultimate is better than the G502 wireless. Literally the only thing the G502 has on it is the infinite scroll wheel and slightly more accessible sniper button. The scroll on its lowest resistance has no tactile feel and is kind of similar, and I find the sniper button position useless on both of them, so that makes no difference to me. Oh and the Basilisk has the optical switches instead of the lovely ones that fail after a year that Logitech have been using. I use my G502 wireless for work, but for literally everything else I use the Basilisk. Tornhelm fucked around with this message at 14:29 on Jan 22, 2021 |

Seeing that I was unsatisfied with all the mice I'd recently tried, my sister decided to buy me... a Naga Trinity for a laugh. It's chunky and a bit heavy, but I can't deny the swappable side panels are neat. It's seems well made. And the clicking on the numpad side panel feels so good. The middle click is near perfect. So light! (idk if these things are just luck of the draw) The circular side panel has just the right amount of buttons I'd like, but my thumb rests in slightly forward of where I think Razer was intending.

They're designed so you use your upper arm and shoulder to move them around, so they're big and chunky. There's a generic design that gets rebranded by a bunch of different companies including Monoprice and Anker. It's even chunkier than the Logitech version, but if you want to see whether you like the concept before you throw down $80-100 on the MX Vertical, it works well enough to try it out.

Neat! In the meantime, I recommend Dreammachines DM2 Comfy series; they're like $40 and have a much better scroll wheel. Not as rubberized as well.

Does a mouse like this exist: -lightweight, no more than ~90g -index finger button(s), like on a g502 -ideally with an extra thumb button in addition to mouse 4 and 5 (like a sniper button) ? I'm guessing the fact that most lightweight mice don't have many buttons isn't coincidental.

I'm also looking into buying a new mouse, as my Roccat Kone Pure is starting to age poorly. I would say I'm looking to have: - Good quality build / materials - Configurable buttons, at least the back/previous - Decently usable customization software I'm unsure if I should pick up the new generation of the Kone Pure, the plastics didn't age really gracefully on this one.

Roumba posted:Maybe the G402 if you drill some speed holes in it? 90g seems pretty tough to reach. I'm actually upgrading from the G402 (it double clicks). I've been considering picking up a new one if I can find one cheap. But since discovering how great lightweight mice feel, I'd prefer something lighter. Twerkdad posted:Although no index finger buttons, the Razer Basilisk X is 92g with a thumb button With a AA it ends up weighing a fair bit more. I tried out the slightly more expensive Basilisk V2, and I liked it a lot, but it was far enough from perfect for me to not want to spend that much money on. On that note I'm now trying out a Deathadder v2. Its lightness actually makes up for its lack of buttons to an extent, cause you don't need a dedicated shortcut if just moving your mouse is that much less of an exertion. Still it's expensive and I would really miss at least having a "sniper" button (I never use it for that function). But it has convinced me that I really want a lightweight.
