r/BuyItForLifeAre bifl computer mice out there?
4 months ago

I love my Steelseries Rival 600 though I can’t find it on their website anymore. Wired mouse with weights to customize the feel. Had it for over 3 years now, no issues. A lot of people *hate* the software though. Before this one, the longest I’ve gone before needing a replacement mouse was, at most, 2 years and I’ve tried Logitech, Razer, and Corsair mice. Keep in mind though that the switches are going to fail eventually. You can replace them yourself if you have a soldering iron or try to find a mouse with swappable switches.

r/CitiesSkylinesWhat mouse do you use?
4 months ago

I love my MX Master 3, but its more of a work mouse, i have one in the office and its more comfortable if you arent moving around super quick like you do with gaming. I'd suggest either a Razer Basilisk V3, has a lot of customisability, tactile feedback is beautiful, ticky magnetic scroll like the MX with custom buttons, and is a good weight. Or Steelseries Rival 600, has eight small weights you can add and remove on each side to perfect the weight, and its very comfortable with good proportions. Smooth all over so no dirt build up, whilst still being grippy. Both have wireless options, only choose wired. Steelseries wireless mice have a tendency to brick themselves, but for desktop gaming i generally prefer wired anyway. The Steelseries isnt sold brand new anymore but sure you can get one used. Preloved is just as good :) These are just the ones I use, so updated ones may have improvements.

Keychron Q6 Max and Steelseries Rival 600 worked like a charm for me. ☺️

I used a Steelseries Rival 600 since its launch in 2018 until like a month ago when i bought a Glorious Model I 2. Had no issues just wanted to try something new. Gonna refurb the Rival, already have grips and skates just waiting on switches to arrive.

Steel series rival 600 fits relatively well in my quite large hands. With all the weights in too it's nice and heavy

r/MouseReviewIs the VXE R1 pro a good budget mouse?
4 months ago

The ATK Z1 seems a little small for me. I'm more of a claw grip guy so I can kinda see the vision on the ipi float. I currently have the steelseries rival 600 and I'm comfortable with the size.

r/pcmasterraceHelp for a mouse that fits my hand
9 months ago

Damn dude your hands are massive, maybe even bigger than mine. Ill give you the list of all of the mice I've tried. 1. Steel Series Aerox 5 - probably my favorite but it is expensive, I don't particularly like the software, It had an issue where it would disconnect randomly sometimes, and after a few years the scroll wheel stopped working. But the weight and button configuration are what are great about this one. It also has a comfortable shape for big hands. 2. Pulsar xlite v4 large - great mouse, great shape, i can almost palm it, I can if im feeling lazy, wide enough for a comfy finger tip grip that large hands pretty much have to use. I wish it had more side buttons but this is my current mouse that i replaced the Aerox with and I love it. I whole heartedly recommend giving this one a try. It has a simple software that just does what its supposed to and nothing else. The software also doesnt need to be running all the time. 3. Mionix Naos Pro - its almost perfect, its almost what i want it to be. if it were just a little taller i would be able to palm it. I think its a solid choice for xxl hands but its just not quite there, the pulsar is far lighter and has a better shape for fingertip grip. 4. Steel series rival - solid, heavy, you can actually add weights to make it heavier. back when i used this i didnt think i would like a light mouse. over all a good mouse with a good shape for large hands. 5. Logi G604 - great mouse, i dont think they make them anymore so they are hard to find/expensive. Scroll wheel is great. Probably about as close to an mx master as your gonna get. Has the weird shape where it gets skinnier where the ring and pinky finger rest so you end up dragging or sticking out your pinky. Lots of thumb buttons, did i mention i like that. 6. Roccat kone xp air - weird shape, almost looks like a left handed mouse but its not. i really like the button configuration but the shape just makes it uncomfortable for the ring and pinky finger, side buttons arent worth an uncomfortable grip 7. Logi G900 - meh one of the first "large" mice i aquired. Its too narrow to be comfortable for xxl hands. 8. Logi G502 - dont listen to anyone who recommends this mouse, its actually not really any smaller than any of the other mice here but the button placement is verry uncomfortable for xxl large hands. I think that about covers it other than I use an mxMaster 3 at work. I would still like for these all to be a little bigger but gaming mice don't get any bigger than this that i have found. TLDR I RECCOMEND THE PULSAR XLITE V4 LARGE Edit - I've held some of the razers at the store and i didn't particularly care for them.

r/swtorWired MMO mice suggestions for SWTOR?
5 months ago

I've been using a Steelseries Rival for the past 6 years and I have no complaints. It doesn't have a lot of buttons tho! I used to use the buttons for my rotation on WoW but kinda fell off raiding and keyboard and clicking are enough for my daily play. I haven't tried to keybind anything to the extra buttons. Also you might be able to just take your mouse apart and clean out the gunk buildup from under / around the keys and it might fix your issue. I did that with the (also Steelseries) WoW Cataclysm mouse I have had for like 8 years and it helped with the wheel sticking. It fucking had cat hair in it because of course it did 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Razer also makes pretty good mice! Or at least they used to.
