"The roborock I have kicked and smashed with my foot so many times out of anger when it doesn't collaborate, and still he rocks 4-5 yrs later and no broken parts"


"they are extremely durable. ... I’ve got well over 1000 miles out of a pair and they still have grip and the uppers are in great shape"


"I've used them for 1500 miles of multi-day hiking with no issues!"

"With the Naga I map the center button on the bottom row to shift. ... And with that I can roll my thumb up, left, or right and get another three keybinds. ... And just having shift there also lets me press that for shift, instead of my left pinky. One less thing for my left hand to do. Makes Shift+4 while moving and jumping easier. ... This gives me ready, instant access to the entire hotbar. And with shift, an entire second hotbar (excepting shift+7 and shift+9)."


"Macros will let that be enough to play even a druid in all forms with every spell being useable. ... And this is without stopping movement to reach and without any annoying left pinky stretch ever being required."


"Only the Naga let's me assign shift to one of the middle row buttons, then easily roll my thumb left and right to get shift4 or shift6 from just my thumb."

"it has the 3 switchable side plates"


"Being able to switch out the side panel is really nice ... made me realize I prefer 6 buttons with room for my thumb to rest versus the typical 12 button layout"


"I love being able to change the side panel as I hated playing shooters with the MMO side, so it feels more versatile."

"could play one handed. ... I'd be playing fetch with my dog while raid healing, it definitely confused the fuck out of a lot of people."

"And it leaks. Consistently. It sometimes even manages to flood things."


"it seems to be failing on me entirely after only two years of ownership."


"at least half of its fails are because it gets stuck trying to get on its own docking station (which is in an easy to reach and clear spot) to charge. ... I've sat there and watched it back up, go back forward, miss, back up, spin around, miss again. It literally does this until it either manages to get itself stuck on the dock, or just runs its power down."

"the headband fatigues my skull"


"wanted a more FPS friendly gaming mouse ... Mice as big as the Razer Naga, but lighter ... I still use my Naga for mmorpgs and I switch to the Pulsar for every other game."


"Or the Razer Naga that is 122g ... I've used all of them and the weight savings on the Aerox helped me no longer get any kind of wrist discomfort after days of longer gaming sessions."

"The keys start double pressing after a couple months of moderate use. ... it's basically useless once that starts. ... It just stops functioning as a useful keyboard when the keys start double clicking. ... I've had 4 of the keys go so far."


"After 7-ish, double clicking Nagas"


"I returned the G Pro to Amazon myself after the left button started acting up after three weeks. ... Also I remember a few years ago, Canada Computers had 15-20 open boxes of the G Pro Wired in every store due to mass returns. ... The ghost clicks have been a common issue with all Logitech mice for the past 5-6 years. ... My conclusion is that there is something wrong with the design of the Logitech mice themselves that causes the switches to wear out very quickly."

"Noticed this problem from my G305 now to the Deathadder V3… and the deathadder I have just gotten a week ago and already causing issues."


"it’ll stop working and reset constantly"


"Lubricating the scroll wheel fixed all my broken mice. ... I even pulled one I thought was toast forever out of the closet and put it back in service. ... Brought two of my scimitars back from the junk drawer."

"learned you CAN actually have TOO many buttons. ... Took some pliers and actually snapped off 7_12 because I kept misclicking, so hard to differentiate between rows."


"Naga is too many small buttons for my fat greasy fingers."


"Naga's side buttons feel the best - very snappy, but its shape causes me to misclick at times."

Ive been running the Razer Naga for years, it's just part of my setup now. Had the first wireless model 10 years ago but batteries back then weren't too great so had to use it plugged in all the time, then grabbed the wired model. and now taking the leap and trying wireless again. suits my hand size pretty well and can swap sideplates to suit different games

You will not get the best of both worlds depending on what you want from the productivity side. Does your workflow require or utilize more buttons? Do you care about weight when youre playing games? If the answer is yes, you should just get two cheaper seperate mice. Im sure people will give you good gaming specific reccomendations so I wont get into them. I use a lot of keybinds for productivity to accelerate my workflow, and thats only possible with mice that have more than two side buttons, I've found a few that sort of work for both gaming and productivity: - The G502x is a good balance, but its as heavy as a brick which is fine for some games but I find uncomfortable for FPS. - Lightweight MMO mice like the Steelseries Aerox 9 are great if you need the buttons, and its lightweight but its not suitable for a claw grip let alone a fingertip grip. - The razer Naga has variants with swappable side buttons and depending on your hand they may be suitable grip wise, but id sooner drink paint than recommend them with their issues and they are not worth the cost. I can keep listing reccomendations, but you'll find drawbacks and negatives that will significantly degrade your end experience trying to have a one mice fits all solution, you will constantly be trading away things and in my opinion - no options exist that I can say is worth $150 in value. 2x $75 mice will get you very far, especially in todays markets where Chinese mice are on par if not better than mainstream options in many instances. Ive settled on the G502x for work. The side buttons and the index finger buttons are very useful, but more importantly the scroll wheel has a button to switch to a free spinning wheel, and has side tilt buttons - those two things alone make it extremely useful if you utilize them.

Wife and I both use a naga I’ve got fairly large hands she’s got tiny hands and she’s had zero issues. The problem is trying to find the naga at a good price and I heard the newer versions break quick. Ours are several years old so hoping they continue chugging along.

As a many-years MMORPG player (Lineage2, Mu Online, WoW), cRPG fan and owner of G700 and G602 (and now Roccat Kone XP as g700 replacement) i never understood this love for Razer's Naga (which i had for a brief moment) and its children. Four buttons is max which thumb can use effectively (fast and without any thinking about function or its placement). You add more and you loose the benefits because of poor mnemonics and (later) egonomics (cant reach all of them effectively). Its like typing with pointing finger only - you can be fast and quite effective but never as fast and without looking at keyboard as when you use all fingers. So 4 for thumb, 3 for pointing finger (including LMB), 2 for middle (including RMB) and two small are for grip - thats the most reasonable setup for a mouse. If you want more buttons just use keypads with WASD on a stick -> Razer Tartarus, Hori TAC, so you don't have to use 3 fingers for movement (just 1) and can use them on other functions. I own two PZ31a's since 2007, a year ago i bought Hori TAC PS5 and recently i even created my own such device with RP2040 Zero - 1 joystick + 25 keys + 4 buttons as pedals and its more than enough for most of games (even STALKER GAMMA which is most key-demanding game ive played recently). Its still in prototype phase (some changes have to be made) but it already works perfectly. Way better than trying to cramp all keys on a mouse which is a device not designed for that.

For me, I've been using the Razer Naga with the 12 button side for more than a decade. It takes a while to get used to, no lie. But I picked one button and mapped it to one action (a spell) and got used to that one button. Then I expanded as quickly as I felt comfortable. I wouldn't play without it now.

Make sure it’s actually dead. I had the same issue and I was about to toss my naga but my friend told me he had the same issue and it was one of the razer drivers and it works, no more double clicks.

I tried using a different one for a while but switched back to the Naga after not being able to live without the side numpad
