Fuck Razor mice. They can't do a mouse wheel right without it slipping backwards when scrolling. Garbage.

Their earbuds are good tho. So far.

Whats a good alternative to Razor? The wheel is slipping on my DeathAdder.

[–] anonymous_bot 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Logitech I guess. There is the mousereview subreddit if you want to research some alternatives. Don't know if there is a Lemmy community equivalent.

I just tossed my fancy Logitech headset after only 3 years. My kid's mouse was double clicking after less. And G Hub makes Razer's software look like poetry.

I was a die hard Logitech fan since I was a kid. I bought shares.

Done with them.

Don't think Razer software will be that much better. After trying razor I am now on a g502 x lightspeed. I really hope these new switches address the double-clicking issues for good.

Lol the g502x lightspeed is the last piece of Logitech hardware I own. About half the time on wake it gets stuck at 0.5fps. The other day a software/firmware bug made it stop reporting clicks and I had to reboot my PC. It's good hardware but something is very wrong with either the firmware or G-Hub.

Why is all gamer equipment garbage?

[–] anonymous_bot 2 points 1 year ago

Ugh don't tell me that. Knock on wood that mine is okay.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Upvote cause you're the only one who spelled Razer correctly

I like Corsair products. My weighted mouse has been perfect for the last 4ish years for gaming.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's the model that the mouse wheel kept slipping.

Anything really I'm using some brand that has a ship as a logo that I got for like $5 clearance from Walmart that's been pretty good. Not super fancy but has all 5 buttons and a button for quick change of sensitivity (which I've never got used to, I grew up on Ball nice, I have to remind myself that I got side buttons).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I got a basic 3-button black HP mouse that I've used for many years of continuous use and dropping and I've never had a problem

[–] warmaster 2 points 1 year ago

Keychron, just go all in on that brand.

[–] BurnedOliveTree 1 points 1 year ago

I can recommend Keychron M3, it’s really a steal for its price. Been using it since the release day for Mac, Windows and Linux and I had zero issues
