I have been using this Steelseries XAI mouse since early 2011. It has been faithful and problem free for over five years (almost six) and gets a good 10 hours of use a day (I am on disability and I live my life in front of my computer.). The soft touch coating has worn off as well as the steelseries logo, but it works flawlessly.
I'm just thinking that the sensors in mice must have evolved since 2011 and there must be something better out there. I am looking for a mouse with a design similar to the XAI in terms of the shape and ergonomics of the actual mouse itself, with superior technical specifications. I don't need extra buttons. I can't wrap my head around them. Left/right click and scroll wheel is ok for me. I will take additional buttons gladly though as long as they don't interfere with my claw grip. That's another thing, I use a claw grip. My hands are too big for any other grip.
Budget is up to $100 Canadian (Which is like 60 something pounds I think? Not sure...) but I'm willing to go over that for an excellent mouse.
Also what mouse pad are people using these days for ultimate tracking accuracy?
