logitech g700... got one a month ago, AMAZING mouse.. wired + wireless, comes with a rechargeable battery, 13 buttons (or something close to that), really good!

I bought an MX518 long ago and when it broke I cycled through a bunch of different mice: the G700, the G9x, and finally the G400.

The G700 was comfortable but a bit too heavy for me. The batteries didn't last all that long either, and while I could use it wired that defeated the purpose of buying it.

The G9x is a good mouse for claw grippers, but seeing as you've come from a G7 you're probably a palm gripper.

The G400 has the same shape as the MX518 and the G7, and ended up being the perfect mouse for me. It sounds like it'd be a great fit for you, too! I love that they transitioned to a matte finish this time around; it feels much better than the glossy finish the MX518 (and G7 apparently) had. It's a fantastic mouse and I highly recommend it!

I use a Logitech Gaming mouse the G5

had it since 2005 and still going strong

Had the same mouse since 2005. Never have a wanted or needed another mouse. I've used the G500 and imo it's not as good, feels cheaper, though they are similar.

I use the MX518 at the moment and it's a great mouse. If I was to recommend a mouse, I'd say the G400 or above (not the G500 though as I've heard that it doesn't last very long with the clicking mechanism that isn't very durable).

I've got the G700 and it's been just awesome for me. A lot of people don't like the textured sides so do try before you buy.

For those complaining about the battery life, if you aren't a twitch gamer, dropping the polling down from the max more than doubles the battery life in my usage.

I was a little worried about the new Logitech product refresh till I took a look at the PR release. It appears that all the G700s has that the G700 doesn't is a new paint job with a goofy stylized 'G' on top of it. I think I'll wait till the G700s is released & pick up a second G700 when they go on clearance.

I <3 <3 <3 my G700. Mine has been perfect. I even dropped it on a hard surface a couple times and it's fell off my desk a few and bounced off my computer case and UPS a couple times and still works great. LGS is rock solid software as well!

The G700 really looks horrible with those buttons near the left click....

[+remixedcat]

Those buttons are great and they don't get in my way.

Most people dont use the additional buttons on their mouse; They are there for a specific crowd. They dont need to be near the primary buttons.

To each his own.

I recently bought Mionix NAOS 8200. It's good, but I haven't done much gaming where it has been able to shine. I'll try it out more at a later date.
I found good reviews so I bought it.
The mouse fits my hand and it feels great!
I love it. The light from the mouse can change color and be switched off, section by section.

My SteelSeries Ikari Optical felt very cheap and it began double clicking so I had to buy a new mouse.

Sometimes that double-click issue is a capacitor gone mad

For double clicking issues:

• take the batteries out of the mouse
  
• let it discharge for 2 mins.
  
• keep clicking on the mouse a lot with no power source (USB or battery) for 2-5 mins.
  
• let discharge another min or two
  
• then reconnect to PC or reinsert batteries

see if this helps
