Might be a bit late but for under 70€ the keychron m7 is the lightest your going to get

Unfortunately, brands only make good shit when they're new/growing. So for a new G402, look for a brand that is still trying to build brand-loyalty and grow a wide gamer-stan audience. Dareu will do you right. The web-software compatible ASUS mice are actually goated and exactly what you're looking for (though they've yet to release a new browser-software Chakram, only 2 button mice). Glorious is perpetually stuck in decent-quality limbo due to their extremely flaky fanbase (which is a score cause it keeps Glorious mostly on the straight and narrow). Keychron is experiencing growing pains, the M6 is trash due to a hardware glitch in the sensor, but the M7 and M5 are actually great. And of course, Mad Catz will always make the single-most over-built indestructible mice on the planet (and then go bankrupt for the 7 billionth time, have another worker union go on strike and overthrow the CEO during a revolution, go bankrupt again, then come back from the dead right when you least expect it). My original R.A.T. 3 is still my travel mouse, it's been with me for over half my life (and is older than the G402) and still works as it did brand-new (earlier this year the rubberized coating did finally goober, but after going at it with the 50 grit it's good as new again). That thing survived getting thrown full force against a brick wall and a concrete floor during my 12yo gamer-rage era, has moved 16 times, survived 8 years of getting crammed into a backpack that was yeeted around during commutes (was usually in the bottom of the backpack getting crushed by textbooks) and never used on a mouse-pad (only wood tables, glass tables, really worn cutting-mats, marble and masonry counters too). That shit don't break like genuinely I thought people were joking about bad switches, glitchy sensors, and back-scrolling scroll-wheels until I got a Razer mouse and it broke in 4 months (with very delicate use cause I actually really cared about the Razer mouse cause it was expensive). The only other brand that rivals the absolute-unit built quality of my first ever gaming mouse, is Pulsar. Unfortunately Pulsar only makes 2 button mice, but their software and build quality are absolutely top-dollar. Just wish they made an MMO mouse, fortunately Mad Catz has released a revised MMO7+ so when I have the cash that's my new MMO mouse that'll last me the rest of my life probably. I mean the Rat 3 is still going strong and the MMO7+ has metal-reinforcements throughout it's shell for enhanced durability so I seriously doubt that mouse will break anytime soon as I no longer yeet mice into brick walls full-force (though somehow the MMO7+ is the second lightest wireless MMO mouse out there, second to the Aerox 9 which has such a terrible shape it genuinely feels twice as heavy than it actually is, plus I accidentally dipped my Aerox 9 in acid and it's slowly turning into a sponge. Of course if you're happy with a 2 button mouse, the Kysona Uranus Pro is absolutely GOATED that thing is built like a tank, I haven't yeeted it but I'd have 100% confidence the Uranus Pro would survive a year of the brick wall treatment no questions.

I'm talking about a mouse with the typical forward and back buttons, plus one button placed for the thumb which is apparently usually called a "sniper button." There's like 3 mice that exist with this layout and they're all varying degrees of awful for various reasons. I have owned all of the mice on this list at one point or another on my search for the Perfect Mouse. First up is the Keychron M7. It's... _fine_. Keychron's software is decent, the mouse has probably my favorite shape among the 3 here. But the battery life is among the *worst* I've ever seen, and the quality of the side button switches is pretty bad. It took only about four months for the back button on mine to start to stick, and require tons of force to press. The M7 is also obnoxiously difficult to open up to even attempt repair. Next is the Razer Basilisk v3. Again, overall fine - it works, and the layout is pretty much the same as the M7. The shape is a slightly different profile to the M7 but is still ergonomic. Unfortunately, being a Razer mouse, the quality of the side switches isn't great, so you can expect them to only last a year or two before developing issues, and Razer software is of course awful. It's also the heaviest of these 3 mice. The last one that I know about is the Redragon M719. It's a budget mouse from a budget brand. The layout is there, but without the ergonomic shape of the M7 or Basilisk, pressing the sniper button is kinda uncomfortable. Additionally, being a budget mouse from a budget brand, its construction is not the best. In my year or so using this mouse I actually didn't experience problems with the switches (though they don't feel great to actually press) but I thought the plastic felt cheap - the area where I rest my palm pretty quickly became shiny and smooth, not something I experienced with either the M7 or Basilisk. So is there REALLY just barely any mice with this specific side button layout? Why is it so underrepresented? It seems to me that when searching for mice like this, most of what you'll find either only has two buttons (forward and back) and no sniper button, or you have the sniper button, but you've also got some other cluster of ~7 other buttons along with the forward and back. Am I just weird for preferring this layout?

As a G502 X user, that mouse looks like everything I wanted on a more "G Pro shaped" mouse, the third side button, the thumb rest, ergo shape, but 70h only battery is a huge L... my ATK X1 V2 Ultra has like 800h for example, it can go without charging for months.

G502 X user here, and yeah, this is hell to find any mouse with these "pro" shapes (G PRO X, Viper V3, Deathadder, EC2-CW etc.) with just a simple fucking 3rd button on the side... Like, I can't even play most of games that I play now without the thumb button, normally I let the "interact" action of the game on that button and the gameplay feels 1000x better, then normally these two forward/backward buttons I use to Skill/Ultimate on RPG games or E/Q leaning on FPS games, I basically use the keyboard just for movement at this point.

Your grip style and hand size make a huge impact on recommendations. I have 6.5inch hands roughly, and a full palm grip and I had a lot of issues replacing my previous generation glorious model d. That mouse gave me no hand pain and it took several purchases to find ones I like. Shape is king for me and always will be. I like the razer deathadder hyperspeed, and mchose A7 ultra. These two really feel great in my hand and aren't too big like many mice are for me. I tried pulsar x3 crazylight, logitech dex 2 superlight, mchose m7, keychron m3 mini and m7, steelseries aerox 3 gen 2, logitech g705 All the above gave me hand pain except A7 ultra and DeathAdder hyperspeed. Hope this helps and you find something you like.

You do realize you could bind middle click to other button? For example infinite scroll with tilt scroll buttons can become easier to press middle click.

How doesn't it recognize mouse buttons? If the mouse button becomes other mouse button in software it should recognize. It happens on mouse through firmware.

The specs seem to be good, similar to the GPX2 ones, we’ll see how it goes. I am a bit tired of that platform though and would prefer a more unique case, perhaps a third button on the side as well. The Keychron M7 8K did it well
