I have a (shi....) mouse, that I would like to replace without spending too much money.  I have seen the following:  Etekcity Scroll X1 (M55)(2800 dpi)  and the Anker CG100 (8200 dpi). Both have reasonable pricing with the Etekcity at a lower price.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

with mice its all about feeling, have you actually put these mice in your hands and made sure they feel good according to you grip? also since you don't seem to want to spend more than 40 on a mouse (which is understandable) your limited in your selection.

 

I recently had the chance to try out a roccat kova and I was amazed at how nice it felt, If your looking for a cheap but solid and comfortable mouse that can work with almost any grip you should consider it at least.

couple of reviews:

I honestly have no opinions on the two you have listed, haven't ever tried them.

@@papithegun  I say go with Logitech or Razer. You are going to need to spend between  50-120 smackers for gaming grade, I know nothing of the 2 brands you speak of.

nooooooooooo  do not buy a RAT7.  Do not buy anything from Mad Catz.  I went through 3 of their RAT7s in a period of 2 years.  Man were they awesome mouses.  For the first two months they worked....

 

Their support department didnt respond to me until 2 1/2 months after I filled out 3 support requests.  Nor did they speak anymore than about 5 words of English.  At one point they had good products.  Until they were bought out.  They are complete junk now.  If you want my RAT7 for free you can have it.  

 

JUNK.

There's nothing wrong with the RAT 7 or the other one Boomslang is talking about and we've both had them for a few years and they work just fine.Mine just feels good in my palm cause I could lengthen it and widen it,

I use Creative Aviva M8600 v2 (two really good batteries for wireless or connect cable for wired). Paid 995 SEK = 140.334 USD for it.

 

Now this week my mouse been acting wired.

 

What I would recommend is to find that fits your hand and grip style yet ergonomic long time use.

Thanks for all the suggestions.  Will do some research and decide.  Hopefully the new mouse will help improve my game.

Papithegun before you buy you need to determine what you want your mouse to do for you! If you don't knife ot run and gun but sit back and take it easy kind of playing then the cheapies will do for you. IF you want more then bro you will pay more! I have had the RAT7 X2 times and like odd said they work great for a short time then they break and are pointless to have. At the moment I have a Corsair Vengeance M65 It does not perform the way the Rat7 did but it has much greater overall dependability! M<y gaming style cslls for a very quick respnse so I look for the better brands which means you will pay more. Also the dpi on the higher priced ones are where you can manually set them where ever you want them. So think about it and themn go buy what you ether need or what your budget will handle. I been on both sides of that equation! Good luck and I hope you get one that performs well for you!

I'm not even sure how long I've owned this mouse it's been years!  It is the most comfortable mouse I've ever owned.  It has excellent gaming features, but is perfect for non-gaming applications as well.  When not playing games, I unlock the scroll wheel and I can freewheel through a document or webpage at warp speed.  Most people just never understand what a beautiful thing that is because they've only experienced a mouse that limits rotation of the wheel to a couple of ratchet clicks at best thereby forcing you to continuously roll the wheel yourself to get anywhere. 

 

Personally I can't think of a better mouse!

Read any review of Rat mice from any website of your choosing.  Amazon, newegg, toms hardware.  The reviews are much lower than all other mice, and if you read through them it is due to hardware issue.  

Owning it for two years should work fine.  But just wait that third year.  

From someone who has gone through two of them in three years, I agree.  Junk product.  It WILL break on you some how some way.  I promise.

 

Too bad since it was a great mouse.  But after 3 years of its use, I couldnt be more happy switching to the G700s.  Its like a Rat7 but so much better.

Agree.  Been using the Logitech trackballs for years now.  M570 is far better than their older attempt at a wireless trackball.

Alright I’m quite intrigued that there is this many responses on Mouse's (or is it Mice?).  Does it really make that much of a difference when gaming? Not talking about feel or comfort but on speed? (in BF4) I think i have an older Logitech corded g500, but I'm due for a newer one.
