Wireless Mouse for Uni/Gaming?

Random Guy Esq. · 22 Apr 2018 at 11:14

Hi all. I'm looking for recommendations for a decent, small-medium sized, wireless mouse for both gaming on my laptop, and general uni work. I've seen a few YouTubers recommend the Razer Atheris. Any other contenders?

Do you need an ambidextrous mouse?

No, I'm a rightie.

I'll be adding the G305 to the shortlist. RJN was well impressed with it.

I'm using a G602 with my new laptop.

Really pleased with it, only had it a couple of weeks but already the six thumb and dual index finger buttons are second nature.

Have auto profiles setup for my most used apps/games.

Moved from an MX Master as wanted a more gaming orientated device.

Cheers! Do you genuinely find the 6 side buttons useful?

Wireless g203 / g pro. Oh yeah...!

If you want cheap, I've got a Tecknet M003 mouse from Amazon, works like a charm.

Did you find much improvement for gaming? I'm on a MX Master currently.

How is the hand comfort on the G602 compared to the MX Master ? Or maybe you have the opportunity to take a photo of them side by side ?

Sold the Mx master yesterday, had it on the mm, but traded it in at CEX.

The 602 is fine for my claw type grip.

Yes as can easily control ten buttons with just my thumb and index finger.

By uni work you mean copy and pasting from wiki?

They said uni work, not programming from Stack Overflow

Using a logitech MX Master 2S here, working great. Only issue I see is the battery isn't obviously replaceable like the previous version. Most likely still a AA rechargable though when opened up.

Goes several weeks without a charge.

G403 is decent - bought it for my gf and prefer it over my pricier G900

G703 is available at a reasonable price at the moment. Actually cheaper than the G403.
