Sounds about right. But if controllers can have hall effect to prevent stick drift (third party controllers at least), then why can't mouse switches have something similar?
I don't think it's drift, they just gets worn out.
Often it's just a bit of dirt. Other times it wears out. My point wasn't that it's the same as drift, but that both are wear and tear that should be avoidable or less of a problem. Like hall effect joysticks in controllers, which are still not available on first party controllers because they want you buying new ones all the time.
Same thing with these switches. There has to be a better switch that makes this less of a problem or at least prevents it from happening so damn quickly.
Sure, I bet there are more sturdy microswitches out there, but maybe they doesn't have that distinct click? Or maybe they're 0.20€ more expensive...
Of course. And then the mouse is suddenly $20 more or something.
So, if I ever get around to learning how to replace the switches myself, I'll go looking for something that might be more reliable.
"extra reliable switches" +20€
Yeah I can see that happening...
BTW I just did it with a pair of plyers and a soldering iron and some perseverance.
Yeah I have zero experience soldering. That's why I said if I get to it. Definitely a skill I want to learn though.
If you do, aliexpress has it all IMO.
