best wireless (bluetooth?) mouse for convenient desktop use (transportable)

(1/2) > >>

hello,
  please help to me to find something really good. i plan to carry it to the office and back home. i would carry it along with my hhkb pro2+hasu bluetooth custom controller.

  last mouse i got - roccat lua. i have it since 2016. use it rarely (inconvenient) and it still works well.

  mouse i used before - couple of logitech g500 and some bloody mouse with shape similar to g500 (sucked a lot and died (worn down) very fast).

  what i would love to see:
  - similar size to g500 mouse or roccat lua. it should not be super tiny, super slim mouse.
  - light or adjustable weight
  - no extra stuff like dpad on the side or anything like that (non-intrusive couple o extra buttons is 'okay')
  - no crazy shape to fit in a bag to carry
  - it does not need to have crazy high dpi
  - no continously blinking leds or anything like that (would distract)
  - good sensor
  - it has to be bluetooth (in worst case it could atleast use logitech unifying receiver)

  last example of that i tried is that 'office' logitech wireless mouses. they are horrible. shape is not right. sensor feels very bad compared to trackpoint on my thinkpad t480 or roccat lua.
  i checked some other mouses that people buy here for the office (i guess <20~25$) and they are all tiny and unusable.

  no budget set for that. could cost any sane amount of money. is <400$ is sane enough?

  thank you.

Here's a few suggestions :)

Wireless: Logitech G305 (or G304 in Asian countries)
Bluetooth: Logitech MX Anywhere (1 or 2, both are fine), or MX Master (bigger, yet more comfortable grip imo)

When it comes to wireless mice, I think you won't go wrong with Logitech.  :thumb:

thank you.

how about logitech g603 and g703 compared to g305/g304? they even seem to be bluetooth capable.

Logitech G603 has a similar shape to G403, which is nice and it also has bluetooth.
However, while it has the new HERO sensor that Logitech offers, most people didn't like it because of the weight.
Unlike the G305, it uses 2x AA batteries which easily brings the total weight up to 135g (you can use 1x AA and make it ~115g, but it feels unbalanced)

The G703 is like the updated version of the G403 wireless but it doesn't offer bluetooth connectivity.
Also, it doesn't use the new HERO sensor which is more power efficient than the 3366 sensor.
Depending on how much usage, you might find yourself charging the mouse more often compared to other models I've mentioned.

Get the G305.. Best wireless mouse..

If the shape is not good for your hand, then G603 is the second best..
