Razer - Naga Left-Handed

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

Naga and keybind mousewheel left/right to ctrl/shift, movement might be tough

The reverse version of the Razer Naga MMO course might help you keep your right hand on the keyboard more [https://www.razer.com/gaming-mice/razer-naga-left-handed-edition](https://www.razer.com/gaming-mice/razer-naga-left-handed-edition) and you can remap buttons on that so you could use your thumb for more of the action also kinda similar to the Azerons keypad, I use a razer tartarus pro because it just makes so much more sense to have the thumb doing WASD instead of using two or three fingers for that. Azeron's devices might be a better fit for you because of how the individual finger switches can be set to different heights, but the damn things look so delicate idk I just see the cats knocking it off of something and it breaking into a million pieces

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.

I’ve had mine exactly nine years and have had no trouble.

Do not buy razer. After my third fucking razer naga broke I have up with razer products... I got a corsair scimitar for Christmas hehe the same 12 button and the scroll is sooo much better 

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.
