For a budget like that, it is the best you're going to get by a lot other than the Endgame XM1 which is also on sale on NewEgg. I've never used either in-game and only used the DeathAdder at a friend's house causally, so I don't really have a strong opinion either way.

https://www.newegg.com/p/32K-00F8-00001

Does anyone else have and good Black Friday deals they've seen? Obviously more sales will come on Cyber Monday, but I haven't seen much today.

Intellimouse pro is slightly longer and has bigger hump to fill out your hand. Deathadder is also an option. The new one comes out on 14th. For anyone who's about to buy Endgame XM1, hold off for a bit cause they're updating it with a flexible cable

The ZA11 is slightly thinner, but much taller. As such, it may feel larger in your hand. Just another suggestion for wanting an ambi mouse still. Would ultimately recommend the Intellimouse, though, in line with hush's comment

mousewheel died on my G PRO. whats good these days (mind you i LOVE my G PRO and will probably just get another unless theres something else with the same shape/weight I should be looking into).
edit: sensor went too... just picked up another g pro because the local mem ex had them for $30 off.

hi anyone know decent gamer gaming mouse that is highly ergonomic?

when I try to find one I either find ones with trackballs or just standard 'right hand ergonomic' shapes, I'm looking for one that is sort of highly angled like those vertical mice, but I would like one with a decent sensor, doesn't really have to be perfect because I can't really aim anyway but I'd rather it was

anyone got experience with razer viper mini and/or deathadder V2?
ive got a deathadder elite and its 105g id like to try a lighter razer mouse and these 2 seem like my best options with a few things in the consideration:

the viper mini is cheaper, doesnt have the deathadder shape(which i have used for the past 3 and a half years), is 20 grams lighter than the V2(61g vs 82g), and has the same new optical switches and the flexible paracord ish cable just like the V2

on other hand, the deathadder V2 holds the shape im familliar with, has onboard memory so i can remove synapse and central(both of which i really despise but not a massive dealbreaker), has a superior sensor than the viper mini(not just the dpi but the max speeds(i go over 5m/s every now and then); viper mini 7.6m/s, deathadder elite 11.4m/s, deathadder V2 16.5m/s)

the dilemma is: viper mini is cheaper and lighter than V2, but has a different shape, a worse sensor and still requires the razer bloatware ,while the V2 is heavier, has a way better sensor and no bloatware needed, im just afraid that V2 being only 23 grams lighter than the mouse i own will make incremental difference as opposed to the viper mini which is literally like half the weight

return policy is not great where i live, if i unbox and use the mouse i cant refund it

Viper Mini is a fine mouse but its on the complete opposite end of the shape spectrum compared to the DA.
The DA is large, ergo and fills out your hand, while the Mini is tiny in comparison, ambi, and optimized for fingertip and claw. Going from 105g to 61g will obviously give you a completely different mouse feel. Personally I love low weight but there are also plenty of people who say they lose mouse control if they go ultralight.

Viper mini does support synapse 3.0 as far as I have tested (I only changed the dpi button to play/pause music), it should save all important settings on the internal memory

The sensor on the mini is perfectly fine and you will never feel a difference to the DA V2 sensor unless you have the fastest arm swipes on the planet. Same case as the Logitech G203 which is supposed to have an inferior sensor than the G Pro Hero but 99% of users can't tell the difference.

I would not recommend going from the DA straight to the viper mini unless you are looking for a mouse that feels much much smaller. Just get the V2 if you are happy with the shape, or maybe consider the normal viper if you want something new with similar dimensions to the DA.

Does anyone have experience going from a g403 to the g703?

I'm considering a wireless mouse and I think logitech stopped making the g403 wireless (don't know if it's just because of covid though), and I really don't want to change to a different shape mouse, the g403 has been perfect for me for years, just want wireless now.

I made that jump a couple months ago, when my wire started acting up. I had used the G403 for more than 2 years. I had also wanted to try a wireless mouse a while and since the shape was good enough for me I thought I may as well try it. As for the mouse itself the quality difference is indistinguishable to me. The only difference is the tiny difference in the force I have to use to move it around, BUT I got used to it within a day or two (also because the weight is a tiny bit different). However looking up and down in game is a lot easier without wire though and it took me longer to adjust to. (Thats just wireless mice in general tho)

TL;DR If you make the jump you will likely get used to it quickly, the mice are of indistinguishable quality.

bktshey ill buy wireless mouse and im thinking of buying logitech g305 or g603 , which one is better and why?

If you like the shape and size of the g305 I suggest buying that one, since it's lighter (especially if you use AAA batteries with some tin foil or adapter) and lighter for most people playing FPSes means more control

I currently own, but stopped using, the g603 because I don't like the shape of it (it made my wrist hurt pretty badly after a couple of days of using it, I use a palm claw grip and have decently large hands)

Also the g305 is a bit cheaper, and sensor performance wise I don't think they are distinguishable.

PS: I haven't owned the g305 but a friend of mine does and I haven't heard any complaints from him in the past two months or so that he used it.

Also, I suggest this guide as well if you want to go down the rabbit hole of choosing the perfect mice for you :D

I have one. It's good. It's nicely balanced, comes with a paracord cable, and having PTFE feet is a nice bonus. People have complained about quality control on G-Wolves mice, but mine works like a charm. Feels solid too. The only downside I can think of is that it's more expensive than a HK Gaming Mira or a Model O.
