Hi guys, thought Id start a thread, really thinking about getting a wireless mouse, I have a Razor Deathadder that I like, wired USB.

I think I had an old mindset but believe wireless now have no letency issues for gaming and not having a wire would be ideal.

The only thing is I am bit lost as to what to get, I know everybody raves about the Logitech mice but I just dont like how they look.

I like the weight and feel of this Razor mouse, I have more of a "claw" grip so small and light is what I prefer. I am a bit wary of Razor build quality as of late and I would be a bit upset dropping £150 for it to start playing up a few months out of warranty.

I am not boothered about RGB (at all) but it would be nice to have an integrated lithium battery as a apposed to ones that take an AA/AAA battery. And as little or no software needed, because I hate all that ****.

What are steel series like?

Any other suggestions?

DIT: Oh and I wont buy Asus anything.

Logitech G502 Lightspeed Wireless.
I have the standard 502 and it ticks all the above boxes, apart from looks... but then, I don't look at my mouse when playing anyway and I never see it from all the 'beauty angles' you get in the marketing photos.
A friend, who is far more of a competitive FPS player, so of course is a superior 'Gamer' to me, got the Lightspeed Wireless after trying my standard 502 and really rates it highly. The LIghtspeed has a lot more 'Gamer' features, so could still be worth a look...
 
Hi bit of a thread bump and thanks for the replies. I've been considering on and off but my Razor wired was giving me false scroll wheel inputs and I got back into PUBG again.

I did look at all the suggestions.

Went for this in the end, only been using it 3-4 hours but love it.

I dunno why I didn't go wireless years ago now, the freedom is so good, particularly as I use reasonably low sensitivity settings on PUBG.

Also no need for any software, works fine on just windows, which is a big plus for me as I hate all that ****

If you want a laugh though it took me a while to figure out how to get it working, I put the little USB dongle into the back of the mouse and whilst I could get it working wired, couldn't figure out how it was supposed to work wirelessly. Doh!

This is not a gaming mouse and there is noticeable latency when gaming, even in desktop you can notice the 125Hz polling rate if used side by side against a 1000Hz mouse (wireless or wired doesn't matter).

I have the MX Master 3 and Master 3S and they are great mice for desktop use, but for wireless gaming you need a dedicated gaming mouse which has 1000Hz polling rate minimum.

I can highly recommend the Endgame XM2we, really light, really long battery life, virtually no latency difference between wired and wireless. And best of all it's actually really well priced. I keep both mice on the desk and use the XM2 when gaming, then switch to the MX when not. I especially like the Endgame because the plastic finish is better than what Logitech use, it also doesn't have that crappy texture that goes shiny after a while.

I have just got the G502 x plus lightspeed I moved from a G502 wireless lightspeed its a amazing mouse and I love it ....its not a heavy mouse its pretty light but I am fine with that plus you have the added support from Logitech which is one of the best support and warranties around.
 
If you've got monstrous size hands like me, get a Corsair IronClaw RGB Wireless. Love mine. Had the wired version before then went for the wireless, 2.4GHz and bluetooth.

I use it with BT 90% the time until I want to play CS2 online then flick the switch to 2.4GHz, it's not light, but I'm not a fan of light mice, IMHO it feels just right.

It has mad amounts of customiaation with the RGB if that's your thing, and obviously buttons can be mapped to whatever, I just leave the dpi setting lights on which also function as a battery indicator when turned on/bars go down, it lasts ages on bluetooth and more than long enough on 2.4GHz.

Only downside if you're picky, is that it isn't usb-c, but I couldn't care less, as 1 it comes with a cable and 2 I already have some other products with the same micro usb connection. 2 Year warranty too :) IIRC it was £80?

Piggybacking on this thread, can anyone recommend a good wireless gaming mouse without rubber grips or fancy coatings?
I've had the Corsair IronClaw RGB Wireless for less than a year and the coating and rubber is trashed! It's not very cleanable and I have hyperhidrosis so sweaty hands so a simple plastic coating would be better and easier to clean. I do love the ergonomics and weight of the IronClaw so ideally something similar and prefer USB charging to batteries.
