【September】School season mouse recommendation, those gaming mice worth buying.

Hi, I'm Yuya Yuya Hirasawa Yui.

The rhythm of summer is fading away, and the bell of the new semester has rung.

Today, let's update the mouse recommendation list to see what newly released domestic 3395 mice are worth buying in the past few months, and to what extent the price of large manufacturers mice has been reduced.

.

I often say that there is no one size fits all, only the best mouse for you.

Because the mold design of each mouse will have large and small differences, and everyone's grip when using the mouse is also different, it is really not easy to choose a suitable mouse.

In this article, I will start with various grips, combined with the products I have started, to analyze the products I think are worth buying at various price points, I hope it can help you a little.

Hand length & grip

Before choosing a mouse, the first thing you need to know is your hand length and corresponding grip.

The length of the hand is the distance from the middle finger to the first line of the wrist, and this length is the length of the hand, and I don't know how much my hand length is going now.

It is generally believed that small hands below 17.5cm, 17.5-19cm are medium hands, and large hands above 19cm.

Your grip rules determine how you use the mouse to produce force, and what kind of mold is suitable, you can judge yourself through the above sketch which of the six main grips, which is very important for you to choose a mouse, if you want to know more about these grips friends can click my avatar to the homepage to inquire.

There is no one mouse that fits all grips, just find the right one for your grip. Let the mouse match you, not let you match the mouse, that's all that matters.

Below 100 RMB:

For mice at this price point, I mainly recommend the products of large manufacturers. Although some domestic mice are also in this price range, I think at this price point, we should give priority to after-sales service and product quality, rather than just looking at the cost performance. The products of large manufacturers usually have better quality control and after-sales service, which can make us feel more at ease. Of course, if you are particularly familiar with a domestic mouse brand or have a friend's recommendation, you can also consider buying.

Logitech G102 II (79 yuan or less)

• Sensor: Mercury 9800
• DPI：8000
• Weight: 86g
• Size: 116*62*38mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: SMALL AND MEDIUM HANDS 18.5CM AND BELOW GRIP A&B; MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18.5-19CM FINGER GRIP A&B
• Connection method: wired
• Micro-movement: Omron blue dot

My favorite hundred-dollar mouse, the exterior design is taken from Logitech cable's flagship mouse G Pro, and the bulge on the back gives the palm a great feeling of support.

However, the relatively high mouse will hold the wrist when holding, and the ring finger and little finger when holding on the stomach are also difficult to fully fit the mouse due to the higher edge of the front, and overall it is absolutely right for a hundred yuan mouse to choose it.

The only minor regret may be that it is more prone to double-click problems, both of my mice have double-clicked after a few months of use, and the stains on the rubber rollers are difficult to clean and need to be wiped regularly.

.

Razer Viper Standard Edition (79 RMB or less)

• Sensor: PAW3325 (customized)
• DPI：6400
• Weight: 96g
• Size: 127*61.7*43
• SUITABLE GRIP: MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18.5CM GRASP B, TUMMY GRIP
• Connection method: wired
• Micro-movement: Omron blue dot

There are not many choices for the big hand grip mouse at a price of 100 yuan, and the iconic appearance design of the viper naturally goes without saying, which is already a classic design that has been inherited for more than ten years, whether it is a big hand grip or a big hand grip is very fit.

In addition to the common double-click of a hundred dollar mouse, there is also the problem of scroll wheel rollback, although both Razer and G102 use Omron micro-movement, but Razer's service life seems to be longer.

There is really no good way to deal with the problem of rollers, but Razer's after-sales service has always been relatively good.

.

100-200 yuan

Domestic mice at this price range are very cost-effective, and the performance, quality control and workmanship are much better than before. The 3395 mouse of major brands will also compete fiercely at this price point, and you can see a variety of domestic mice similar to the mold of the flagship product blooming at this price point. At the same time, you can also see the upgraded version of the 100-yuan product of the big factory.

Logitech G304 (139 and below)

• Sensor: Hero 12K
• DPI：12000
• Weight: Nude mouse 74g, battery required
• Size: 116*62*38mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: SMALL AND MEDIUM HANDS 18.5CM AND BELOW GRIP A&B; LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18.5CM FINGER GRIP A&B
• Connection: Lightspeed wireless
• Micro-movement: Omron

You can simply think of the G304 as a wireless version of the G102, the mold design of both mice is exactly the same, and even the G102's double-click and rubber scroll wheel problems exist on the G304.

The core competitiveness of the G304 at this price point is more the perverted general endurance.

If you use the esports mode with a 1000Hz return rate, the G304 can reach 250 hours of battery life, which is double the battery life of its big brother GPW. If you have a low-power mode of 125Hz, the battery life will reach a terrifying nine months, basically changing the battery once a year.

Razer Purgatory Viper V2X Extreme Edition (199 or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3319
• DPI：14000
• Weight: Nude mouse 79g, battery required
• Size: 127*61.7*42.7mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: BIG HANDS 18.5CM OR MORE GRASP B, TUMMY GRIP
• Connection: Hyperspeed wireless, Bluetooth
• Micro-motion: Kaihua Green Dot (customized)

At this price, many people recommend the small ba snake, one is dozens of pieces cheaper than the viper, and the other is the cooler appearance. But the exterior design of the Ba Snake is designed for a multifunctional mouse, and if only the basic functions are retained, then only the exterior design remains.

It is better to choose Viper to play the game, but the extra two side buttons on both sides of the main key are a little inconvenient to press, and the position is a little too far to the side, and I often press it directly when I can't tell the front and back.

Thanks to the low-power sensor of the 3319, the Viper V2X's battery life is not as good as the G304, but it is also very good.

.

Rambler G3M Pro (199)

• Sensor: PAW3395
• DPI：26000
• Weight: 63g
• Size: 118.7*61*38.6mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: MEDIUM AND LARGE HAND 18.5CM AND BELOW FINGER GRIP A&B&C; GRASP B UNDER 18CM IN SMALL HANDS
• Connection: FlashSpeed wireless
• Micro-movement: Huanuo blue shell powder dot \ Huanuo silent micro-movement

At present, the only mute & game dual-mode micro-motion mouse, the mouse can quickly switch between mute and game micro-movement. If you have silent office needs, then this one is currently the only option.

However, the overall size of the mouse is on the small side, which is only suitable for small hand players. FOR MOST GAMERS WITH A HAND LENGTH OF 18.5CM OR MORE, THEY CAN ONLY HOLD IT WITH THEIR FINGERS, WHICH IS A PITY.

.

Colorful M800 Ultra (199 or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3395
• DPI：26000
• Weight: 49g
• Size: 124*64*38mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: SMALL AND MEDIUM HAND 18.5CM AND BELOW GRIP A&B&C; MIDDLE HAND 18CM AND ABOVE FINGER GRIP A&B&C
• Connection method: wired, Bluetooth, 2.4G wireless (4Khz upgradeable)
• Micro-movement: Huanuo blue shell pink dot

Only sold 199 poison viper V2 flat replacement, fragrant!

The mold design of the M800 Ultra is exactly the appearance of the viper, although the size of the mouse is smaller than the viper, but the grip of the two mice is very similar. nRF52840+PAW3395+ Huanuo Blue Shell Powder Point, even 9g lighter than Viper V2.

A few months ago, I did a review of the M800 Pro, and although the M800 mold was similar to the viper, the overall feeling was not good enough, especially the gap between the left and right buttons was too large. And the side buttons also feel poor. However, after months of improvement, this mouse is not the same now. The workmanship is fine, the gaps are gone, and the feel of the side buttons has become a micro-touch, and this improved M800 Pro is worth a try!

There is also a similar mold at the same price is VGN Dragonfly F1, but the dragonfly mold is smaller than colorful, and it is closer to the size of the Viper MINI in the Viper series, and small hands players can consider.

.

ROG Shadow Blade 3 (199)

• Sensor: PAW3311
• DPI：12000
• Weight: 59g
• Size: 126*62*39mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS 18-19.5CM GRIP A&B; MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18.5CM FINGER GRIP A&B
• Connection method: wired
• Micro-motion: ROG self-developed transparent red (hot pluggable)

Shadow Blade 3 is a unique large-hand lightweight wireless mouse at this price point, with a 59G lightweight design and hot-swap micro-motion function, you will definitely not find the second one in this price segment. Of course, at this price point, with a 3311 sensor mouse, you will not find a second one.

In terms of mold design, the Shadow Blade 3 is very similar to ROG's flagship dragon scale ACE, but the front end of the Shadow Blade 3 is lower, which is more suitable for finger grip, and the tail is slightly stronger for the palm support. For 200 yuan, you can experience the grip of similar flagship dragon scales, which is indeed very unusual.

.

200-300 yuan

This price is a bit embarrassing, the domestic 3395 will rarely probe 200+, and the flagship mouse of the big factory rarely reduces the price to this price. However, there are some featured products worth paying attention to.

Dharma Shark M3s (269 or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3395
• DPI：26000
• Weight: measured 58g
• Size: 122.7*62.5*37.8mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: SMALL AND MEDIUM HANDS 18CM AND BELOW GRIP B; MIDDLE HAND 18.5CM AND ABOVE FINGER GRIP A&B
• Connection mode: wired, Bluetooth, 2.4G wireless (support 2Khz rate of return)
• Micro-movement: TTC gold micro-movement

In terms of mold design and mouse volume, the Dharma Shark M3s can be seen as a scaled-down version of the ROG Dragon Scale ACE. Compared with the shadow blade of the wired dragon scale replacement, the Dharma Shark M3s is still a little worse if it is flat. However, M3s has native support and does not need to buy another 2Khz rate of return, which is basically one of the cheapest 2Khz rate return mice.

M3s, which is similar to the dragon scale mold, also inherits the shortcomings of the dragon scale mold, and small and medium-sized hand users basically only have the comfort of grasping the user, don't think about it, and the big hand user carefully considers.

.

Razer Baselis V3 (259 or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3399
• DPI：26000
• Weight: 101g
• Size: 130*60*42mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: BIG HAND 18.5-19.5CM GRIP B, TUMMY GRIP
• Connection method: wired
• Micromotion: Razer's second-generation light micromotion

When it comes to multifunctional right-handed artificial learning mice, the first thing that comes to mind is Logitech's G502.

But now it seems that the Ba Snake V3 is not inferior to the G502 at all, cooler light effects, smarter rollers, lighter weight, better sensors, Ba Snake has an advantage in almost all aspects. So, if you're thinking about buying a right-handed learning mouse, don't always think about the G502. Consider the Ba Snake V3, which is also a great choice.

.

Razer Yagi Snake V2 (199 or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3369
• DPI：18000
• Weight: Nude mouse 60g, battery required
• Size: 108*60*38mm
• Suitable grip: small and medium hands 17.5-18.5cm finger grip A&B&C; Small hands 17.5cm below grasp A&B
• Connection: Hyperspeed wireless, Bluetooth
• Micro-motion: Kaihua Green Dot (customized)

Small hand gaming mice are not very common in the entire mouse market, and the price of the Yagitech Snake V2 is much cheaper than the Logitech G705 next door.

However, its back is designed to be relatively high, so if you are holding it on your stomach, it may not be very comfortable, and it is more suitable for small hand grip and finger grip.

And the battery life is very long, only need a No. 5 battery to achieve 435 hours of 2.4G battery life.

.

Razer Purgatory Viper V3 (349, God Car 289)

• Sensor: PAW3950
• DPI：30000
• Weight: 59g
• Size: 127*68*44mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18.5CM GRASP A&B, TUMMY GRIP
• Connection method: 8Khz return rate wired
• Micromotion: Razer's second-generation light micromotion

This is the 2023 Wired Rat King, the top sensor, the top rate of return, and the top weight.

PDD god car 289 some time ago, grab is earned, if you don't grab it, JD also has a good price of 349.

The same mold as the wireless Viper V3, but the surface has been changed from fine matte to fine anti-fouling coating, from the perspective of cost performance, the use experience of wired V3 plus a wire clip is comparable to wireless V3, not to mention the wired version of V3 has a top return rate of 8Khz.

.

300-500 yuan

Now, we're going into the field of flagship mice, where the top sensors and technologies from major manufacturers are gathered.

Logitech G Pro Wireless ($349 or less)

• Sensor: HERO 25K
• DPI：25600
• Weight: 80g
• Size: 125*63*40mm
• Suitable grip: small and medium hands 17.5-18.5cm grasp B, tummy grip; Medium and large hands 18.5cm and above grasp, finger grip A&B&C
• Connection: LightSpeed wireless
• Micro-motion: Omron blue dot (white dot for later products)

Usually I would consider a product that is excellent in every way and has no obvious flaws as a benchmark.

Whether it is sensors, micro-motion functions, mold design, after-sales service or driver support, you will not find any shortcomings in GPW that seriously affect the user experience.

Even if I don't mention it, you might forget that this is actually a product that has been on sale for 5 years.

The recent release of Dog 3, the biggest experience upgrade in so many years is a type-C interface, if your budget is 400, then GPW is my first choice.

.

Razer Viper Ultimate Edition (379 RMB or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3399
• DPI：20000
• Weight: 74g
• Size: 127*66*38mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: SMALL AND MEDIUM HAND 18.5CM AND BELOW GRIP A&B&C; MIDDLE HAND 18CM AND ABOVE FINGER GRIP A&B&C
• Connection: HyperSpeed, wired
• Micro-movement: Razer light micro-movement

In terms of parameters, Razer launched a product specifically to compete with GPW, and the performance, pricing, and buttons of both mice are comparable. However, the hand shape and grip for the two mice are very different. GPW is a high-backed symmetry rat, and the venomous viper is a low-back symmetry rat.

When grasping, GPW will give the palm a good support, and will feel the feeling of topping the palm, but the low-backed viper does not have this feeling. In the finger grip, the back of the GPW will allow the little finger to hold the player's wrist too high, and the comfort of the long time is far less than that of the viper. In general, when choosing a mouse, you must pay attention to whether your grip can match the mold, and the most important thing is to use comfortably.

In addition, the base contact of the ultimate version of the poison viper is easier to oxidize and cause poor contact, and the original foot patch is relatively thin, and the cushion may be scraped when used on the soft cushion, which you should pay attention to.

.

ROG Moon Blade Wireless Aimpoint (399 yuan or lower)

• Sensor: Aimpoint 36K
• DPI：36000
• Weight: 75g
• Size: 118x62x39mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: SMALL HANDS 18CM AND BELOW GRASP A&B, TUMMY GRIP, MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS BELOW 18.5CM FINGER GRIP A&B
• Connection: SpeedNova, wired, Bluetooth
• Micro-motion: ROG transparent red (hot swappable)

There are very few small-handed flagship gaming mice on the market, and while GPW and Viper are good, they are still too big for small-handed gamers.

The appearance of the moonblade allows everyone to see a gaming mouse suitable for small players, excellent mold design, top sensor and wireless technology, excellent after-sales service, and first-class after-sales service. If you are a small hand player and want a good gaming mouse, then Moon Blade is definitely the best choice now.

.

ROG Blade 3 Aimpoint ($449 or less)

Sensor: Aimpoint 36K

DPI：36000

Weight: 79g

Size: 123x68x44mm

SUITABLE GRIP: MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18.5CM GRASP B, TUMMY GRIP

Connection: SpeedNova, wired, Bluetooth

Micro-motion: ROG transparent red (hot swappable)

The most worthwhile lightweight flagship mouse in this price segment, Razer at the same price is still selling the previous generation of Viper V2 Pro, both weight control and sensor performance are one gear behind.

Compared with Razer's flagship Viper V3, the battle blade is designed with a hem at the right skirt, and the fingers will get a stronger sense of confirmation than the Viper V3 when grasping, if you also like to grip, but feel that the side of the Viper V3 is too flat to grasp, then the battle blade is worth considering.

.

More than 500 yuan

Four words: top flagship.

ROG Dragon Scale ACE X AImlab (599 yuan)

• Sensor: Aimpoint 36K
• DPI：36000
• Weight: 54g
• Size: 127.5*63.7*39.6mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18CM GRASP B, LARGE HANDS 19CM ABOVE FINGER GRIP A&B
• Connection: SpeedNova, wired, Bluetooth
• Micro-motion: ROG transparent red (does not support hot plugging)

ROG is officially among the works of the mouse manufacturer, and it is also my favorite mold design this year.

Whether it is design or interior materials, the Dragon Scale ACE is the top flagship specification today. The 54g non-perforated lightweight design is currently the lightest mouse in the big factory, but the price is to sacrifice the hot-swap micro-motion function that ROG has always had, which makes the playability of the whole mouse less fun.

It should be noted that the dragon scale ACE is a high back symmetrical design The waist range is not obvious on both sides, and it will not be so comfortable for players to use it, so it is only recommended to grasp the top palm of the player's choice.

.

Razer Purgatory Viper V3 Pro (639 yuan or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3950
• DPI：30000
• Weight: 63g
• Size: 127*68*44mm
• SUITABLE GRIP: MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS ABOVE 18.5CM GRASP A&B, TUMMY GRIP
• Connection: Hyperspeed
• Micromotion: Razer's second-generation light micromotion

Needless to say, after the release of the Viper V3, Razer's share in the professional arena speaks for itself.

This is Razer's current top-level product, and it is also the absolute TOP 1 for holding a mouse with a big hand.

With a new Viper exterior design coupled with a 63-gram top-of-the-line interior without holes, if you ask me which one I like the most out of all the mice of 2022, I won't hesitate to answer it's the Viper V3.

.

Zhuowei EC-CW (RMB 1079 or lower)

• Sensor: PAW3370
• DPI: 400-800-1600-3200 four-speed switching|sensor peak 19000
• Weight: 77g
• Size: 123*61*38mm
• Fit grip: three sizes to choose from; EC2 IS SUITABLE FOR MEDIUM AND LARGE HANDS WITH A GRIP OF 18.5CM OR MORE, A GRIP OF A&B AND A TUMMY GRIP
• Connection mode: anti-interference wireless
• Micro-motion: Warno blue dot

Then again, products that cost 1,000 yuan and only 3370 processors are generally unlikely to appear in this kind of product recommendation. Out of a little selfishness of my own, I decided to put it up.

After I've played with dozens of mice, Logitech, and Razer products, if you ask me to keep only one as my gaming mouse, I'd go for the EC2-CW.

EC2-CW is my favorite mold design. For so many years, there have been various products imitating Zhuowei EC molds on the market, but none of them can really achieve the feel of the original EC design. As for the sensor, I really didn't use it to see the difference between it and the flagship 3950.

Of course, I'm not saying that Zhuowei is the god of all mice, and now there are many mice on the market that are good and cost-effective for you to choose. It's just that if you don't get started, it's really hard to perceive the difference in the design level of each mouse mold from my description.

So really, you might as well try this product, anyway, Zhuowei is the only mouse manufacturer that can really return for seven days without reason, really don't get used to returning it.

The above are some mice that I think are worth buying at various price points, if you have products you want to know or want me to test, you can leave a message in the comment area.

I'm Yui Hirasawa Yoya, see you in the next article.
