OP here, That's fair, they are esentially the same mouse except a few mm's here and there so it does come down to personal preference, although my hands are pretty big I went for the smaller 2-a as i could find it 10 bucks cheaper and have no regrets at all, im sure i'd be equally happy with the 1-a.

only the mx518 should be on there

and thats only because the other alernative at the time was the IME 3.0/WMO/IO 1.1

Zowie is bad, and always has been.
>>
>>59661045
I had that and it was utter shit for me because I have oily skin
On the left it had a pattern with embossed holes which gathered up dead skin and sweat and oils
The plastic is rough and gets dirty very easily after long usage it's difficult to clean
I literally had to take it apart, wash the plastic parts and pick out the gunk in the embossed hole with a toothpick weekly if I wanted that mouse to be clean

Also it was a little small for my hands and took me 2 weeks to fully get used to
After 4 years the scroll wheel started failing and I replaced it with a Naos 7000, one of my best decisions ever. It fares extremely very well with my oily skin and it is larger
>>
>>59661150
id rather have the 403 desu.

>>59661276

Whatever floats your boat. They're both great. Logitech is the only manufacturer for high end mice in my opinion.
>>
>>59661214
>Zowie is bad, and always has been.

I can't agree with this, Zowie was bought over by BenQ recently I bought the ec2-a earlier this year and as an upgrade from my mx518 I can say that the ec2-a is a very solid mouse, probably a little overpriced but it feels solid, the teflon feet glide amazingly, i can hold it almost the same way as my mx518 (i miss having the space between the RMB and side of the mouse to rest my ring finger) and the build quality is solid, its just as accurate and the buttons feel just as good as the mx518, scroll wheel feels a little different but you get used to it fast.

Zowie mice have high latency, compared to logitech for example, also their coating is shit and theyre overpriced as fuck.

Ok this is bullshit, you're gonna have to bring up a source to back this up, I got used to the surface pretty fast, i now prefer the surface as it makes my hand less sweaty/oily

I do.
I could wash every hour and my skin would still getting oily, especially when I use the mouse and keyboard a lot like when I'm gaming. Even more when it's summer and there are 30°C outside

If the MX518 is up there, the G400 should be up there too. Very similar mice. The G400's only competition at the time was the zowie mouse that was $20 more.

>>59661372
Claw grip is for autists
>>
I've had the G400 since it came out. Last week the scroll wheel stopped working. I opened it up and realized how simple a machine it actually is. I bent a piece of malleable metal and in 5 minutes I had a working scroll wheel again. The Logitech logo is peeling away but this thing still works great.

Comparing differences in latency between mice that all have <10ms latency is fucking retarded. You are stupid if you think you have some kind of point.
>>
>>59661453
Click latency now is literally non-existent. The issue you see crop up with them seeming to be 3ms slower than a Logitech mouse is caused by the testing methodology.

Click latency is tested by just holding 2 mice together and hammering on them to register clicks. the issue with this is that even if a mouse has superior latency if it has heavier switches it'll actuate later. This isn't an issue in gaming because people just get used to the heavier weight.

fuck those old logitechs, the ergonomics are total garbage unless you're a total manlet. tiny mouse with a big hump in the center requires you to curl your hand around it in such a cramp inducing way. also the clicks feel like shit.

deathadder has the best shape and feel for gaming with a decent sized hand but the build quality is unbelievably shit. couldn't rma my second and last one because i bought it from an "unauthorized seller". fuck razer.

now i'm using pic related since i found one cheap and the build quality is great but it's ambidextrous so the palm support is meh.
>>
>>59661607
>>59661608
While i understand you need to confirm you bought something good, the zowies DO suffer from bad click latency even after the fix

Shit, even my IME 3.0 has shit click latency - But i love the shape.

>But muh 3ms
Its 7-10ms compared to logitech.

>But hulk smush mice to check latency
Bro, if you smash two objects together at 3m/s+ EACH (so 6m/s+) resistance on the clicks with something like mice is not going to matter, from the point the plastic hits each other were talking sub 1ms or some shit

im sure there is someone in here that can into math to back that up.

>>
>>59661637
Nice one, looks like it manages to contain all the rice.
>>
>>59661647
It literally makes a huge difference.

If you were to take 2 switches from a keyboard, one having a 50g spring and the other having a 70g actuation force spring and push them together, then of course the one with the 50g spring will actuate sooner. It simply takes less force to do so.
>>
>>59661681
Wow you bought more mice than i ever looked at eh

Its amazing you know nothing about them then, that must feel bad

I hope your daddys trust fund doesnt run out on you.

where does it say anything about high input lag?

i ctrl + f "input" and "lag" no results
>>
>>59661699
You have to account for you smashsing the shit together, that puts the force of your arms moving them into equation too, the only difference would be travel lenght, and at under 1mm or something, that should not matter

As i said, someone in here thats actually good at math could probably go nuts and prove this, im even sure someone did once too.

Lets take your case then right, one is 50g other is 70g, ok, now move 50g and 70g against each other with 3m/s+ each, then add in the added weight of your arms behind each one, suddenly - it doesnt really matter


>>59661725

>>
>>59661702

As i said, keep justifying the added latency (the logitechs arent 0ms, the 7~ ms is added on top of whatever latency the logitechs have.)

>>59661787
Thats your opinion, im sure you wouldent mind 10ms extra latency on colors on your monitor either then, right.

New mice are shit, always some form of smoothing or processing or acceleration or prediction.

the g400 has prediction and accel and the ime has shit tracking speed/surface read and bad dpi plus any ime you buy now is a chink knockoff and probably has accel/snapping + a bad sensor

All mice with fewer than 3 side buttons are useless. You at least need a button for forward, backward, and next tab. Clicking tabs is such a waste of time.

Bros how can I make my own mouse? I know a bit about metallurgy so I could make the housing and all that myself. I could easily buy the switches and mouse feet somewhere. But I don't know where to buy mice sensors, or how to design ICs/boards.
