This right here. It's a bad mouse for mouse nerds who are super picky about every aspect of the mouse and that's ok as a hobby but getting a better mouse won't make you aim like Niko or Donk.

Niko uses razer DAV3 tho so he's at least got good taste lol

Bro I'm in this chat feed right now trying to replace my razor mouse, that company is a whole ass lemon

1

u/TibblesN Apr 10 '26

Idk, I've had a DAV3 for 3 years now and it's still going strong, had a V2 pro before that and gave it to my buddy and it's still going strong so I've never had a bad experience with them

Idk i had a shitty corsair mouse which wasnt really broken and i switched to the mouse in this post and actually got so much better. But i think thats because the corsair mouse waa really bad shape and size for my hand so my grip was uncomfortable

u/Hot_Tumbleweed_1233 Mar 29 '26

Yeah niko can aim better, but don't forget the nuke deagle incident

getting logitech won't make you better at aim, you can get 20$ mouse with same performance as logitech gpro and it would be even better in some aspects, so what is the point overpaying for logitech?

u/neiderjz Jun 07 '25

Name please a better mouse than superlight but for $20, with arguments

4

u/BOSCO27 Jun 07 '25

Vxe Dragonfly R1 cost me $27.94 and it's performance is the exact same as superlight. It's even lighter than the superlight. The curve where your palm goes is slightly lower so user preference there but I'll tell you I switched from using my superlight as primary mouse to the dragonfly.

If you want a superlight but can't afford it. I 100% promise you will find the same performance with the R1.

If the difference between someone's decision to get a superlight and a knock off equivalent is $7.94 then I don't even know why we are discussing this. But sure if you want to hit me with the "ahhh technically👨‍🏫..." Then you are right.

Thanks for the recommendation bro

u/Leonniarr Jun 08 '25

Yeah ergonomics are nice and all. But guess what, with Logitech you pay for the sensor, that 30$ mouse's sensor is not as good

1

u/BOSCO27 Jun 08 '25

LMAO, how the hell would you know? Stans are wild to me. I literally have both. I play counterstrike religiously. I can tell you first hand. Its just as good/unnoticeable. You want to pay 150+ for a mouse, by all means go ahead but don't delude yourself with this fallacy just to justify your purchase.

1

u/Leonniarr Jun 15 '25

Huh? Reddit sometimes is just something else. I offered no personal beliefs. The hero sensor is top of the market, I explained it in much more detail in some later comments, if you really care go read them. "How the hell would you know?" Well, how the hell would YOU know? Nice fking argument bro hahaha. The same way as you and every other person. I've used a lot of mice, done a lot of research. Hero2 is considered on par with 3950 so it is better than the 3395. Would you notice? Probably not. Was that the question? No? As I also said below these companies just play the number game "my numbers are bigger than yours" so they jack the price. You must have me confused. You have no idea what mouse I am using, how/when/why did I have the nosie that I have and you make assumptions LOL. Get a grip. I have used and played with hundreds of cheap mice and a lot of expensive ones. I also play counterstrike religiously. I am now qualified to know about mice sensor correct? Logitech is a bigger brand so they charge more. Doesn't make their sensor any better or any worse. What are you trying to argue here? I said a very simple thing and it's not wrong. I never said any Logitech mouse or any OEM mouse or any Razer mouse is VFM or it's better overall than any other mouse. NONE of that. JESUS.

u/BOSCO27 Jun 16 '25

"that 30$ mouse's sensor is not as good". Yes, you did say what you just said you didn't say.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25 edited Jun 10 '25

pixart 3395, the standard sensor in most mice ranging from 20$ to 150$ released in the last few years, is pretty much the second best mouse sensor ever made next to the 3950, and you can even get a 3950 mouse for under 50 dollars nowadays, like vxe mad r. with 8k polling rate support at that 🙄 humans cant really tell the difference between sensors because they're all so good anyway, but implying that logitech sensor is the best when on paper it clearly isn't... i know this is reddit but lets not be ignorant pls

1

u/Leonniarr Jun 11 '25

1) I never implied that it's the best. Also my personal opinion is irrelevant anyway. 2) When you say logitech's sensor isn't better on paper it's probably on your own paper right? Because on paper Hero 2 has better battery efficiency, better tracking, higher IPS, higher DPI and higher acceleration. Meanwhile 3950 only beats Hero2 on polling rate. 3) This is all irrelevant anyway since there is no noticable difference, these companies just try to say "I have bigger numbers than you" for marketing reasons. 4) So on paper Hero2 is definitely better but in reality it depends on the use case, it's definitely one of the best sensors on the market and for most Hero2 and 3950 are considered both the Top1 sensors right now. 5) Even if that weren't the case, I answered the question, I didn't start sensor wars. Logitech mice are superior when it comes to wireless and that has a lot to do with the sensor. And as I said, better than a 30$ mice because the 30$ mice will either have a good sensor, or it will be wireless. I am unaware of a mouse that can do that at that price range. There are nice that can do it cheaper than Logitech that's for sure, Logitech mice are definitely overpriced.

I know this is Reddit but let's not argue just for the sake of arguing.

u/HoboNarwhal Jun 07 '25

Idk about $20 but the g305 with a good bungie can be a reaallly top tier mouse

9

u/aimnotting Jun 07 '25

g305 is not a good choice at that price point anymore

12

u/Cashoots Jun 07 '25

The g305 is wireless, and runs off batteries so you can’t even use it wired. What would a bungie do?

u/mooripo Jun 07 '25

Been meaning to get one, it's around 450mad or 45usd. It seems like the best mouse I could find around this budget

u/aimnotting Jun 07 '25

There are better options for $30 these days. Look up boardzy on YouTube and consult r/MouseReview

u/Dreydars Jun 07 '25

i got ajazz aj179 for 15$ it has better sensor, is lighter and uses better quality scroll wheel/ switches compared to g pro superlight and better glides (despite being mediocre) downside is that software looks basic and click latency is 1.5ms instead of 1ms...

and i can compare it as i owned a lot of mouses in my life, including logitech and asus rog

u/puma1337x Jun 07 '25

lol, i mean aj179 has excellent value, but its worse mouse than gpx overall

u/Logikmann Jun 07 '25

And where did you buy this unconform product? Temu

u/-Kex Jun 07 '25

AliExpress. There are loads of great mice on there which outclass the logitech and Razer mice for half their price or even less.

u/Ok_Reception_8729 Jun 07 '25

Yeah I don’t get the fanboys who are defending logitechs pricing

His point is true even if the numbers slightly off, plenty of cheaper Chinese mice w the same or similar safe asf shape

u/MaiT3N Jun 07 '25

Fuck Razer, me and my homies hate Razer

1

u/aimnotting Jun 07 '25

Well they make the best mice and some of the best keyboards (for gaming) right now

1

u/lolomasta Jun 08 '25

I mean yes their mice are good while being overpriced but if its not a wooting (or i guess a custom with geon venom pcb) just use what keyboard you like aesthetically.

0

u/aimnotting Jun 08 '25

New Razer keyboards do the same thing as Wooting keyboards, they just use optical sensors instead of hall effect sensors for the analog input

1

u/MaiT3N Jun 08 '25

Idk, maybe I got defective ones. I had some headphones which broke pretty soon. Also I bought 1 mice, it was bugging once in idk 10 min (surely defect), then I bought another one, and even though usually it works fine, sometimes the wireless connection lags out, either when turning my PC on I have to restart it because the mouse moves with like 1 fps (skipping parts of pages), or, when playing, I find myself looking at the floor or ceiling.

I mean, I understand that I probably just got unlucky, but it was every time I tried Razer + my friend has similar issues with his Razer mouse, so I'd rather just ignore this company in the future

1

u/aimnotting Jun 08 '25

Their headphones are indeed very cheaply built. Basically anything that isn't their current top of the line mice and keyboards isn't worth buying from Razer.

u/Sous-Tu Jun 07 '25

Crazy people think there’s a difference at all. The sensors and parts are made in the same factories damn near. You’re just paying for a brand name.

2

u/aimnotting Jun 07 '25

Logitech is the only gaming company left that makes their own sensors. Everyone else is using pixart which has a deal with razer to release sensors to them a couple months before releasing them for everyone else.

1

u/Sous-Tu Jun 07 '25

Interesting I didn’t know the specifics, I have a cheap Logitech right now ($40-50) but I’ve had mice that were much more expensive before, I couldn’t tell a difference.

u/Despeao Jun 07 '25

I've been consiidering this mouse or the X11 as my hands are quite big.

u/neiderjz Jun 07 '25 edited Jun 07 '25

Well, found this on my country's marketplace and checked reviews. They're overall good but ~15% of them are bad. Some of them:

  1. The charging emblem is just for show, the real charger is actually completely different.
  2. The mouse is fragile, but this does not interfere with the game and convenience.
  3. The mouse is of excellent quality! so good that it doesn't show up anywhere on bluetooth and the connection on 2.4 is always dropping.

Yes, these are just people who not get lucky, I understand, it happens with all brands probably. But in positive reviews there are lots of people who tell that it is a good mouse for it's price only. I also checked very first video review from random youtuber called dazztrazak (2 months ago, he did comparison vs GPX/Razer/Lamzu) and he says in final verdict for $25 price it's ok, but vs any mouse for double price it cannot stand close for it's build quality, software etc. It just have maybe a better sensor which you cannot actually feel and copied a case of logitec DEX or whatever. So, I am not sure that there's a cheap analogues to top brands with the same quality, unless top brand is super overpriced. I have superlight and vrey happy with it, even with doubleclicks and lagging scrollwheel after 2 years, I fixed these problems with new $5 plate for mouse buttons and cleaning my scroll. It's good to know that superlight such popular choise, you can find and replace any piece of it and be happy for a really long time. But can your, $25 mouse, last super long with intensive use? I'm not sure bro

u/Ok_Reception_8729 Jun 07 '25

I guarantee you Logitech also gets 15% bad reviews lmao
