I’m looking for a new mouse with MMO side buttons, and was wondering what Lemmy thought about it.

My current mouse is a cheapo Red Dragon M901. I love the ergononics, but the durability of the scroll wheel isn’t great. I had to replace the mouse about a year ago because the scroll wheel died (really stiff + wouldn’t click), and now this one is starting to show the same symptoms.

I would like wireless (esp. bluetooth), but I’m a little skeptical about it because my last wireless mouse (EVGA X20) had really inconsistent wakeup. Sometimes it would fall asleep while I was reading something, and I’d have to shake it for 2-5 seconds to wake it back up. That’s extremely annoying :/

The razer naga mice seem like the top tier stuff, but they’re very pricey and my experience with razer hardware reliability in the past has not been great.

Also I’m a linux user, so if the mouse comes with a linux compatible configuration utility, that’s a plus (open source? that’s a plus plus even if the mouse itself is mid :P)

    I personally have the Corsair Scimitar which I like quite a bit but I had to get used to how to hold it. I honestly think that if I were shopping again today I would just go with the Naga. I think that the Naga is a “buy once, cry once” type of purchase. Mice with 6+ side buttons is just a really sparse product category and if you can manage you should try to get a few of these mice in hand and choose based on comfort

    Edit: I specifically chose a wired mouse. The battery in my old Naga was so heavy that I ended up taking it out and just using it wired anyways. If you don’t need to be un-tethered, I would avoid wireless but again, that’s personal preference
