I used to look around reddit for product suggestions, reddit sucks and I don’t trust the bias anymore due to gorilla marketing.

I figured I could pop the question here, maybe help drive some lemmy traffic!

Any mouse suggestions? Wireless is preferred and the main use case is general desktop. I do play games with it but I play single player rpgs, so it doesn’t need competitive specs.

If you know of a mouse that doesn’t meet the criteria post it anyway, just add the different use case!

    I got a Logitech MX Master for general desktop use and am happy with it.

    Good battery life, comfortable, accurate, and the multiple extra function buttons don’t get in the way. I like the motorized flywheel scroll and ability to maintain 3 bluetooth pairings (selectable via button on bottom)

      Yes this. Been using mine for a few years now and it’s proven to be dependable. It’s comfortable to use and I love the side scrolling wheel (I work with loooong spreadsheets often).

      This seems to be the most recommended mouse, I couldn’t tell if it was marketing hype or genuinely good. Seems genuinely good!

        Love the mouse. Hate that it cannot store presets onboard anymore. The Mx master 2 could.

        Looking for a new mouse too.

        It’s a big mouse, I couldn’t get used to it. I got the G305 instead and bought an extra because it fits me much better.

      I’ve used two MxMasters over the last 10+ years and I couldn’t be happier with them. I only replaced my first one because it was white and I couldn’t really clean the rubber scroll wheel properly. The new one has a metal scroll wheel and is much better.
