Using Logitech G9xs (with the small grips) on my gaming PCs. Love the shape, but I have no idea what I'll replace them with when they eventually die.

I'm using one of these on my home PC too. I love it, its a no-nonsense basic mouse that is not bad for gaming at all. Had it a few years now and it barely looks like its worn at all.
At work I use a Logitech performance MX, which is great for my usual day-to-day IT stuff (Was using some microsoft one before but it was giving me hand cramps..), but it looks hella worn out even though its a year old...

Logitech G400s Optical Gaming Mouse
So good.
So good.

THIS!
MX Performance mouse.
I don't think I could ever go back to wired mice after using them so for long.
G700 is the best looking and performing. Logitech is really good about honoring the warranty. I recently broke the button that switches the wheel from smooth scroll to click (everything else is perfect) and they just sent me a brand new mouse. I now have two in nearly perfect working condition. The ability to go from wired to wireless is awesome and I'm actually glad the battery is a regular replaceable AA.

I feel like I posted here already...
But Sensei.
Every other mice companies add a ton of junk. Steelseries just keeps it a pure mouse performance.

Is it worth upgrading to one of these snazzier mice if I don't play PC games often? I've just been using a generic Dell wired mouse.
Bolded is objectively wrong.
Most accurate mice right now are the Steelseries Rival, Corsair M45, Mionix Avior, and Logitech Proteus.
If you are at your PC often, it's definitely worth finding something that is really comfortable.

I'm still chugging along with this little guy, from, like, 2002.
Building a new rig is on my list of things to save for, so I'll probably pick up some new peripherals whenever that ends up actually happening.

Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical
Sadly they don't make these anymore. I've tried all sorts of high end mice but they always have some deal-breaking issue like the feel, the buttons, the wheel, or the weight. This one is perfect.
Its successor, the Comfort Mouse 3000, requires significantly more pressure on the buttons to register a click, and it also feels worse in the hand.
I wish they'd make an optical, USB version of the original Intellimouse.
Most comfy mouse ever, but I guess it wasn't very fair to lefties.

Have you tried the Steelseries Sensei? Its mold is extremely similar and it really doesn't have any major flaws.
I have one and it pretty good, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the 700 series, and I miss the fast scroll wheel like in other mice.
But it's very accurate, no wireless lag, and has dpi settings, also he battery life is really good, it lasts a month on average for me, as my only mouse. With some eneloops, you are set.

Anyone have a good idea for a Logitech G9x replacement? Needs to be mostly symmetrical, compatible with a fingertip grip and keep customization and the 4K+ DPI resolution.

CM Storm Xornet. It's alright, though it does feel a little too light and could have some more weight to it.
I haven't looked too much into mice since a little over a year, and these appear to be somewhat recent. What advantages do they offer over the G400 (Angle Snapping Off)? I'm mostly interested in sensor differences, overall build quality, and optimal tracking at 400-800 CPI.

The later Intellimouse models were USB.

Yeah dat G500 I'd had some Razer products but logitech is the golden standard.
I love my Ducky, it have MX Brown which I believe is the best ones for both gaming and writing.

Agreed, Browns are the happy medium. I have them on my Max Keyboard Nighthawk X8.

same here. i love its shape and being able to put weights in it. i don't know what i'm going to do once that thing stops working, because i don't know of any comparable mouse.

I'm a lefty and limited in choice, I use an amibdextrous Razer Lachesis, it has 9 programmable buttons and can run off the standard windows drivers. I don't even have the Razer drivers installed at all as they're poor. Great mouse though with over 3 years solid use.

Indeed I did... it was close but I kept accidentally hitting the side buttons. Really wanted to like it.

We've had this thread a bunch, but I highly recommend the Zowie EC1 Evo.

Previous mice were everything from the first optical mice, MX 518, G5, Razer deathadders, intelli mouse, to trackballs and wacoms.

Logitech M570 wireless trackball. Suits my comfy couch PC use just fine these days considering I use an Xbox pad for most game types.

Same, but the X version.
Been using this for 5+ years. Great mouse.
I've used an MX518 quite extensively and I find the G9X the better mouse in every respect.
Claw grip, mind.

I was in the town today and found this mouse in Cash Generators in perfect as new condition (not a mark on it, feet look like new etc), I got it for 99p. I forgot just how comfy this mouse is, it will be a nice backup mousethis bastard is over 13 years old and still works. MS Intellimouse

Logi G300. Great range of functions, sexy in the hand, and cheap!
::highfive::
I used the MS Intellimouse for so long. I loved that thing, then it finally started crapping out on me a few years ago so I switched to the Razer Deathadder (blue light version). It's been great since, but the material on the wire has started to fall apart.
I've been hearing how the 2013 version is a nice improvement on the Deathadder. Is it worth it getting?
