Hello, not sure whether this is right place to ask, but I’ll ask anyway. I’m looking for mouse replacement, but I do need the mouse to be quieter than your usual “click click clik”, as I often use it in the evening in a room with other people sleeping. Usage is about 50:50 office and single player gaming, so I don’t need the best sensor tracking or the fanciest RGB (I nor need nor want that at all), I just want well working, silent mouse.
I hold my mouse mostly in claw/fingertip grip, so I can’t operate something big, Deathadder-like. Ambidextrous shape is fine (maybe even preferred), as long as it has 2 thumb buttons on the left side. I used to have Logitech G305 which was almost perfect, except for 2 things: 1) very loud clicks and 2) mouse wheel got nasty swollen over time to the point it stopped rolling at all.
I’m using something people describe as “PWNAGE symm 2 clone” from local store brand, that is exactly what I need (smaller shape, silent), but its sensor is somehow starting to act weird after like 3 years? It’s been discontinued so I can’t buy replacement one.
Or if you know better place to ask (other than /r/…), I’d be glad. Thank you very much!
I used a Nexus (nxstek.com) for years and it still worked great, only replaced it when I switched to a vertical mouse for wrist ergo, now my wife still uses, and it’s the mouse that’s lasted her the longest (she’s hard as fuck on mice for some reason). I’d suggest you check out the SM-8000B from them.
Sorry to slightly derail the thread, but I’ll probably be on the market for a vertical mouse soon as well, which one do you use / recommend? I’ve been using Logitech mice for decades now, so I’ve naturally looked into their options and I’m not quite convinced on the ergonomics of the ones I’ve seen.
I’ve been using the Zelotes C-10 (wired for my desktop) and F-17 (wireless for work laptop), when they say vertical, they mean it. Anecdotally, it has helped with my wrist pains. I also wanted the extra buttons on the C-10, so I could map them for gaming (I also use a Razer Tartarus for my left hand for gaming).
