"UtechSmart Venus has got me through many many years of MMO gaming at low price point. ... Yep, they hold up well. I got mine about the same time. It gets probably 35-40 hours of use per week."

Ive used the utech Venus for over a decade
My UtechSmart Venus. $35 on Amazon and I’ve had it almost 10 years.
same issue here, got the wired mouse and it's not connecting. i left a ticket about it on the github so hopefully it gets resolved for us, fingers crossed :)
been using that Utech Venus at the bottom for almost a decade now, Im pretty sure id be completely incapable of swapping at this point
I use a UtechSmart Venus Gaming Mouse that I got on Amazon. It’s relatively cheap and off-brand, but it works well. My first mouse from them started double-clicking on left click after 10 months of pretty heavy use (6+ hours a day), I reached out to the manufacturer and they sent me a completely new one, which I still use to this day.
Seconded. I've had mine for years, and it's still doing great.
I also use the redragon M908 and I love it, very pretty, runs smooth, great battery, no issues. A similar mouse for close to the same price is the Utech smart MMO mouse on Amazon, which is almost identical to the red dragon one except that the top of it has a different texture and a different logo.
Im a big fan of the Utech Venus. Its got the mmo buttons in the side, but I programmed em for media/volume control, along with a couple of quick shortcuts for overwatch voice lines. Its also got customizable weights and a triple clicker next to the left click
i use a UTECH Smart Venus Pro. it was a random amazon find for about $40 usd but actually really nice. i’m on my second one, not bc the first died, but because they came out with a purple one that perfectly matches my setup 😂 old one is now used by my wife. i’ve probably put in about 3.5k hours in xiv between the two and no signs of issues yet. i have the wireless version; can be used plugged in as well (i often plug in to charge and keep playing lmao)
I replaced my black g600 with a white utechsmart venus pro, I really like it so far! being wireless is nice, though you do lose that 3rd click button. i haven't missed it but i also haven't played mmos in a bit (I also rarely used it in fear of it not working at a crucial moment lol). biggest peeve is that if you have the LEDs turned off you can't tell if the battery is low, but other than that it's great and matches my setup. there's also a red dragon white wireless mmo mouse out there iirc
