Spec me a mouse!

[Nevakonaza]

Currently have a Logitech MX518,This thing is great its the right size, Weight and feels comfortable to use.
and feels accurate with its Hero 25K sensor.

Only issue is the wire on mine is now starting to give way at the usb port, I would simply buy another but i think they're discontinued,

Anyone got any recommendations in terms of similar mice with equal or better sensor?
Wouldn't mind wireless, Do Logitech have an upper hand with their wireless tech?

Budget id like to stay under £100.

Sensors have equalized in the sense that any decent modern mouse will feel indistinguishable compared to eachother. Mice have become quite a bit lighter over the years. The MX518 has quite a unique shape, you could try any of the new variants of the G502 depending on if you want wired or wireless. The old version is the G502 HERO which is 120g compared to the 100g of the newer variants which is closer to your MX518.

I have a VXE R1 Pro and been pretty impressed with it compared to what it costs compared to the likes of Logitech and Razer etc. Mice are subjective though and what feels great for me, may not for you.

G402 and G502 are the closest in shape that I can think of, I'd actually say the 402 is closer.

Some (but not all) versions of the G502 come with adjustable weights for those who prefer a heavier mouse, but it is also on the larger side if that matters.

I'd honestly buy a handful of potential options at the same time but from somewhere with super easy returns like the rainforest, mouse preference can vary a fair bit and what some people might get on with others will hate as mentioned by maj above.

VXE Dragonfly (check the Pro/Max/Ultra variations). Bought my son the 8k polling version and he's thrilled with it (competitive Fortnite/Rocket League)
