Don’t ever under any circumstances give money to Logitech, worst mouse maker I have had the misfortune in dealing with.
Go ahead and tell us the story.
I have only good experience with Logitech mice, except one time with Performance MX, but I got it replaced for a new one without issues.
I've had a G502 and G403 wireless for years now and they've been solid.
What's your experience?
I actually switched from Logitech to Razer after the left mouse button on my G502 died. I tried out a few other brands but nothing comes close to the shape of the G502 except the Basilisk. The Hyperspeed is typically 1/3 the price of the Lightspeed.
Their keyboards suck as well. The G710 was the GOAT but they've been trash since they stopped using cherry switches. I was eyeing the MX Mechanical for the longest time before I realized that Keychron makes a superior keyboard at half the price.
Those switches aren't too hard to replace if you still have it laying around.
I use logitech g503 (wired) since 2019. I had to replace switch/clicker under right mouse button. It is still pretty decent mouse tbh.

I have a similar model to this and while they do go for pretty cheap and are decent quality, be aware you'll need to replace switches after like 2-3 years of use. Mine also had issues with both left and right click and replacing the switches wasn't as easy as I'd liked.
Logitech G600. Yes, it's wired and a bit old but it is EXTREMELY reliable, easy to program, and VERY comfortable. It's so good that I have 5 of them; 1 that I'm using and 4 to replace it with when this one dies.
I've gone through quite a few different mmo mice, I always go back to the G600. I'm on my third mouse right now, probably should just get good enough at soldering to replace the left click button when it wears out.
I keep hoping for something spiffy to replace it but nothing does! I've gotten so used to the pinky button on the g600 that at this point any replacement would have to have that.
Thought about checking out Azeron's project cheddar mouse. But as I don't really -need- a new mouse it's a bit out of my budget.
Razer are terrible for reliability, I've had a Logi Pro X Superlight for a year and it hasn't let me (or a sub) down.
I been using a wired Glorious Model O 2 for two months. Zero problems.
I use the Corsair Dark Core rgb pro se. But that's mostly because I wanted both a thumb and pinky rest.
The Logitech G305 is the single best budget wireless mouse ever and nothing will change my mind about it. I've had it for about a year now and my friend, who got me to buy the G305, has had his for 4-5 years.
I really like razor, when my synapse dies I'm just goma get another TBH. Also there are some really decent $20 gaming mice on amazon, just read reviews.
If budget isn’t an issue I’d highly recommend the G Pro Wireless / Pro X Superlight.
I'll second this. I got mine after caving in to all the good reviews of it. Stupid good for a mouse, if this one ever dies, I'll buy a second one.
G502 wireless
Its not a “gaming” mouse but its still a high quality mouse, I got the Logitech MX Vertical and it’s spectacular
My favorite mice at the moment:
Logitech G Pro Superlight if you primarily play shooters.
Logitech G502 Lightspeed for a more general purpose mouse. After using the superlight for almost a year, I find going back to this thing kind of hard purely due to its weight. But I miss it’s top notch ergonomics and the extra button on the left side.
I agree with the Logitech G Pro Superlight, even if I don't really play games that much anymore it's just a very good mouse to use.
I have a cooler master MM720 and I really like it.
I use this one at work. If you want it in a wireless flavor check out Xenics Titan GE - same body just added wireless and a USB cable.
Logitech G600 if you like having a LOT of buttons. Had mine for years and it still hasn't broken.
I came here to recommend this, as well! It went out of production for a few years but they started making them again so I bought a second one for home. I have used one at work for... WHAT??? Amazon says I ordered this thing 9.5 years ago!
Xenics Titan GE wireless is the best mouse I've owned, just in front of a Ducky. Razer has their USB dongle install spyware/software every time you plug it in - so no thanks. I have a Logitech Pro that I use for travel because the left switch burned out. Easy to replace but don't want to have to do it every year.
I love the way logi mice feel, but I've had 3 die on me with a double click issue, I just can't bring myself to give them more money.
I've heard that the Xenics Titan is built well, but has abnormally high click latency, which I'm not a fan of. Right now I'm sticking with an old school Razer Deathadder wireless, but you're not wrong about their software being a cancer.
I'll jump in here to ask. Does anyone have a good replacement for an old MMO mouse with 12 thumb buttons.
I use the corsair scimitar rgb had it for ~5 years now with no complaint.
