Can you go to a local PC store and try any? I absolutely hate the g502 shape and design. For casual gaming I use the Glorious Model O and for competitive the Razer Viper Ultimate.

I wouldn't call Razer jank. I have owned and used quite a lot of mice from Logitech gaming (g502, retired) to the 3 and own 2 MX 3s. I also have 3 Razer mice.   * Razer Basilisk v3 Pro (previous was the Gen 1 Ultimate version which I owned as well)-> hybrid mouse between productivity and gaming, more on the heavier side vs traditional Razer mice. Intelligent charging setup (magnetic base charging) and the comes with a dongle and USB connector that is interesting. * Razer Basilisk X HyperSpeed Wireless Gaming (travel or out of my home office, mostly collects dust in a drawer now) * Razer Viper Ultimate (gaming mouse, lightweight and my go to for that) Neither companies' software is ideal, though Razer's latest release (still bloated) is better than the prior version. I prefer the MX 3s for productivity working, and Basilisk 3 for casual use, browsing, some gaming, if my Viper is charging or I want to go with a heavier feel mouse.

I have viper as well. It is super good. However again you won't have access to the side buttons.

I’ve used the Viper Mini and Viper Ultimate before, and as a **fingertip grip CS2 player**, the Superlight 2 honestly feels great. The shape is super safe and comfortable—nothing awkward about it. It works well with fingertip, claw, and even relaxed grips, which is why I think it’s such a versatile mouse. You don’t have to fight the shape at all. Battery life is solid too. I play a lot, and for such a small, lightweight mouse, it lasts way longer than I expected. Even near 20% it’s still usable and not like my previous viper ultimate that would start skipping when its in that 20% range. People love to say *“you got ripped off”* or compare specs nonstop, but mouse wars are kinda dumb. You can have the best sensor on paper and still hate how it feels. Every mouse has downsides—there’s no perfect one. For CS2, consistency and comfort matter more than anything, and this mouse delivers. If you want a **safe, reliable, no-BS mouse**, I’d easily give it a **10/10**.
