Hey, I saw the post last week about a quest for a MMORPG mouse and it inspired me to ask for help as well. My needs are similar but not exactly the same from the OP last week:
- Gaming MMORPGs and FPS (like everyone I guess)
- I want specific 3 or 4 buttons additional to the front buttons, placed on the sides
- Under 100g
- Length up to 127mm (small hands)
- No thumb rest is probably best.
It doesn't seem that we have many new mouse models with those requirements which is a bummer. I identified some ambidextrous mouses distributing the buttons which I think I could perhaps make it work but not sure. Here are the ones that I found. PLEASE COMMENT IF I SHOULD REMOVE ONE OF THOSE FROM MY LIST OF CONTENDERS AND WHAT WOULD YOU PICK:
a. ~~Razer Viper Ultimate~~ -- disqualified because is Razer
b. ~~Logitech G PRO~~ -- 60 hours battery may not be enough for today standard
c. Pulsar X2A
d. ~~Razer Viper 8khz~~ -- disqualified because is Razer
e. ~~Alienware Tri-Mode~~ -- side buttons can't be disabled if desired
f. ~~MMOPRO~~ -- mouse sensor not optimal
g. ~~Machenike L8 Pro~~ -- not sure if it has a third button on the sides
i. Kone XP Air -- looks to be what I'm looking -- at 126mm it may be too large for short hands (in another context this sentence would be quite odd)
j. ~~Pwnage~~ -- having to adopt a criteria this one uses 3370 sensor and the newest mouses are using the 3395 sensor. So, keeping the mouses with 3389 and 3395 sensor in this list. It also features only 38mm of height and it may not be ergonomic to use the buttons on the right side
k. ~~Ducky Feather~~ -- this has option to choose between Kailh 8.0, Huano Blue and 60M Switches, however they doesn't seem swapable and given that it is not wireless it may be better to cut off
l. Lenovo Legion M7 -- at 127mm it may be too large for small hands (in another context this sentence would be quite odd)
m. Keychron M6
n. Glorious Model l 2 -- probably the winner. Although, I will need to find a way to either accept the thumb rest or get rid of it
Final considerations, I don't care if is wired or not. I see myself almost all the time with the mouse wired. Although would be nice to be USB C featured for a paracord cable.
I need most help to understand those techinical differences that I'm not very familiar.
Thank you for the inputs
EDIT: I gave up. The mouse that I'm looking was not created yet. I decided to go with a light regular 2 side buttons mouse.
Nothing against the project but the price seems a bit salty. $367 for a WiFi 6 router!?
