Opinions on Razer?
jamster:
Logitech mice- extremely boring, not the cheapest. And in my experience, ridiculously reliable. My kids have been using cheap Logitech mice for years. My primary work mouse of 5+ years is an old wireless MX Anywhere.

Software is rubbish.
I will never buy Razer again.

And this is why we buy Logitech, lol

My experience with my last Logitech mouse made me switch to a German brand that I had never tried. It was double clicking and the scroll wheel was just a disaster.
Currently VERY happy with my Endgame Gear XM1r - patiently waiting for them to release their XM2w wireless mouse.
Guess my point is everybody makes crap if you get a monday-model.
Back on topic:
My experiences with Razer have not been positive, I've owned a keyboard and a mouse and both broke within a month.
I could've been very unlucky though because I've also heard people praise Razer, so again it's all about how lucky/unlucky you were.
Honest opinion: you can get better quality gear for the same price as Razer, if you don't NEED the brand.

This means a bad micro switch and pretty much everyone uses the exact same switches from Omron.
It's not really a Logitech problem (just luck of the draw) and you didn't avoid the issue by changing brands.

This doesn't use Omron switches.
Not necessarily a Logitech problem but when it happens more than once I don't want to bother trying again.
Darthbaggins:
EndGame gear make excellent mice - if the XM1 was wireless I would have chosen that over the GPxSL, so far zero issues with scroll and main clicks - this seems to have been an issue with the batches of Omron's they sourced for the earlier GPro models too.
