    I’ve owned two razor mice, they both had the scrollwheel break within a year. I left the cult of razer then.

      Same, although more than just the scroll wheel broke. And I think I was on three in a row breaking within a year before I gave up. It’s a shame because feature-wise I like some of their stuff, but it’s just impossible to buy products with this level of QC.

        I’ve used logitech g502s for about 10 years now and the only time I’ve had issues was when I accidentally knocked it off my desk. I’m not a fanboy but logitech makes some good quality stuff for relatively decent prices

          I have two 602s that I’ve had forever. Unfortunately both are having issues with the switches failing so I’m going to have to figure out something. I replaced the one for the left mouse button in one of them but the ones I bought are so stiff that if you don’t click it exactly right button just flexes, so that’s annoying.

              No, not in a long time. I just find it’s very nice to have, you can do actions without lifting your fingers off WASD. Or use the PC one handed in some cases and have a coffee.

                Yeah, people really sleep on the programmable keys. Even just for web browsing it’s nice to be able to do extra stuff with one button press.

                  I could literally not live without them anymore. It’s great even for browsing/desktop use with some extra common actions, and pretty much every single game plays smoother with a few thumb-bound hotkeys.
