Anyone else still using an original G9? Anyone ever find a solid replacement?

I settled on the G502. Not as compact but it works well.

I'd love a slightly smaller-in-the-palm G502. I have a smaller hand or shorter fingers or something and its a problem with any mouse. Its a pretty good mouse and I've used a few over the years.

One of my kids has that one and likes it. X-model looks nice too.

I went from the mx1000 to the g900 and have been happy with it for the past couple of years.

Looks sick. I've never had an ambidextrous mouse before, could be cool. Thanks for the suggestion.

This deserves to be honored and put on display :)

It's earned it.

The Logitech I have has lasted so long that I'm hesitant to switch brands, but I'm looking into Razer's line now.

I really like the Basilisk design. Have multiple models.

I got a Razer mouse and had no end of software issues with it. Ended up getting a Logitech g502 lightspeed and it’s been awesome and issue free

yes and it feels nice my dad got me in to it

[–] TimeNaan 1 points 1 year ago

But the precision is awful and it needs constant cleaning.

[–] DocMcStuffin 2 points 1 year ago

I had one. I ended up replacing it because I found the middle click too stiff. I swapped to a Gigabyte Ghost, but alas, that too is defunct.

Thanks for the input folks! Looking like the Logitech has the best prospects for a long life. G502X Lightspeed. Maybe next year my keyboard will go wireless too.
