Another mouse question but somewhat different from last week
Hey, I saw the post last week about a quest for a MMORPG mouse and it inspired me to ask for help as well. My needs are similar but not exactly the same from the OP last week:
Gaming MMORPGs and FPS (like everyone I guess)
I want specific 3 or 4 buttons additional to the front buttons, placed on the sides
Under 100g
Length up to 127mm (small hands)
No thumb rest is probably best.
It doesn't seem that we have many new mouse models with those requirements which is a bummer. I identified some ambidextrous mouses distributing the buttons which I think I could perhaps make it work but not sure. Here are the ones that I found. PLEASE COMMENT IF I SHOULD REMOVE ONE OF THOSE FROM MY LIST OF CONTENDERS AND WHAT WOULD YOU PICK:
i. Kone XP Air -- looks to be what I'm looking -- at 126mm it may be too large for short hands (in another context this sentence would be quite odd)
j. Pwnage -- having to adopt a criteria this one uses 3370 sensor and the newest mouses are using the 3395 sensor. So, keeping the mouses with 3389 and 3395 sensor in this list. It also features only 38mm of height and it may not be ergonomic to use the buttons on the right side
k. Ducky Feather -- this has option to choose between Kailh 8.0, Huano Blue and 60M Switches, however they doesn't seem swapable and given that it is not wireless it may be better to cut off
l. Lenovo Legion M7 -- at 127mm it may be too large for small hands (in another context this sentence would be quite odd)
n. Glorious Model l 2 -- probably the winner. Although, I will need to find a way to either accept the thumb rest or get rid of it
Final considerations, I don't care if is wired or not. I see myself almost all the time with the mouse wired. Although would be nice to be USB C featured for a paracord cable.
I need most help to understand those techinical differences that I'm not very familiar.
Thank you for the inputs
EDIT: I gave up. The mouse that I'm looking was not created yet. I decided to go with a light regular 2 side buttons mouse.
Personally I've had bad experience with razer devices failing early. I went through 2 mice in just over a year and then couldn't be bothered to warranty it, so I got a Logitech. 4 years later and now the right mouse button is failing (can't hold it and when I click it double clicks), but that's a more reasonable life span at least.
I'm all about the wireless. I splurged on their power play mat and cut it apart, then modded it into my keyboard tray.
Before you throw it away, keep in mind you can fix it in less than an hour for less than $2 if you have a soldering iron. Get yourself an Omron or similar switch and replace it. Even better, replace both, just in case.
Really? I bought a Death Adder back in...2011? Or '12, maybe. And it JUST started to fail me, still works, but sometimes double-clicks for no reason. I was actually gonna get another one too
I have small hands and I really like the Logitech G mouse I have, it's comfortable and lightweight and has really good dpi options. I have the wired version but I've heard good things of the wireless version
