Razer Deathadder Elite. 8 years. Mousewheel works really badly because of dust and similar, but you could open it up and try to clean it in some way, that's how i did when i had problems with my left click.

My Deathadder Elite from 2018 is still going strong. When it dies, I’m getting another Deathadder.

Anyone who recommends anything but the Razer Deathadder is wrong.

Recently had to replace the scroll sensor on my DA Elite. 4 bucks on AliExpress and works like a charm again.

I've had my Deathadder elite for 6 years and it's still fine. It did lose the rubber thingies to the side though.
