• Need to find a decent mouse
    21 replies, posted
I was convinced to buy a new mouse over my old Dell Premium one. I want one that's wired, [B]comfortable[/B], has back/forward side buttons and isn't too expensive. Also no gimmicky gaming shit. I was looking at the Microsoft Laser Mouse 7000, but it's wireless (and I hate wireless mice, don't ask). I've ordered the Logitech G5.

You're basing your opinion on a mouse on [i]looks[/i]? Just buy the G5, that's a great deal.
[QUOTE=Odellus;19786802]Looks? You're basing your opinion on a mouse on [I]looks[/I]?[/QUOTE] No, comfort. The one I have at the moment isn't very comfortable, so if that one looks almost exactly the same, it will feel the same.
[QUOTE=he-did-it-->;19786819]No, comfort. The one I have at the moment isn't very comfortable, so if that one looks almost exactly the same, it will feel the same.[/QUOTE] Trust me, it won't. The G5 is one of the most comfortable mice out there. [editline]05:06PM[/editline] It's a fairly large and heavy mouse though.
OK, I'll go for it. If I don't like it I could probably sell it for the same amount as I got it. [editline]10:12PM[/editline] It's done. £33. Thanks.

I would have suggested the Logitech Trackman. Imagine not having to move your arm when using the mouse. I personally love it. No repetitive movement injuries for me!
My brother got the G5 and constantly complains about how it gives him wrist pains. >.<

[QUOTE=Ravage5665;19787508]My brother got the G5 and constantly complains about how it gives him wrist pains. >.<[/QUOTE] Tell him to get a wrist rest or something. I've never had this problem.

I like the adjustable weights :3: No not really, why would anyone need that?
[QUOTE=ManningQB18;19801877]I like the adjustable weights :3: No not really, why would anyone need that?[/QUOTE] comfort, just because you don't like heavier mice doesn't mean someone else doesn't it's like asking why they would bother making a mouse in a shape to fit to your hand
Well, that website stopped selling the G5. So I thought fuck it, I have money to burn and bought myself a Razer Imperator. [IMG]http://www.pcworld.com.vn/pcworld/Media/Mess/2009-11/500x500_02_1.jpg[/IMG] I really like it. It's sexy, comfortable, fast and smooth. £60 was steep though. Very steep.
Isn't G5 discontinued?
[QUOTE=winsanity;19883411]Isn't G5 discontinued?[/QUOTE] yep [editline]09:42PM[/editline] replaced by the G500

Very steep.[/QUOTE] So basically you didn't need to make a thread. The MX518 is £17 and it's exactly the same as the G5 apart from the weights (pretty much)
