Currently $119 at JB Hifi and Officeworks. I was able to get my local JB Hifi to price match, although they did add a nominal $5 for delivery.

This is an excellent mouse. Other mouses I currently use are a Logitech G903 (lightweight and symmetrical), MX Master 2S (very ergonomic, has bluetooth) and this one. I think I like the Razer most of all. Why?
1) Ergonomic (if you're right handed, that is)
2) Tracking is as good as the G903
3) Works with a dongle AND bluetooth (switch on bottom to change modes) - good for when I take my laptop away with me and don't want to disconnect everything.

Downsides:
1) Non-rechargeable (but excellent battery life from the single AA battery)
2) Needs the Razer software installed to customise it, and the software is too dumb to work via a proxy

  It was less than $65 2 months ago for local stock

    Indeed, thanks - looks like the same Amazon US via Prime listing.

  I bought one a week ago, it's a decent mouse - nothing special or fancy. I paid $65 and honestly, it's a little expensive at that. I read somebody comment here when I researched it that it's a $50 mouse and I'd have to agree.

  (I'm comparing to my Mamba Wireless which this isn't replacing, this was bought for it's Bluetooth so I can use it with my Shield TV)

    Yeah, despite this being wireless (either via dongle or Bluetooth), it's a pretty basic mouse - that is, within the gaming industry.

  Question for current owners. It looks like it has a textured side, does that pickup gunk after a while?
  Owned a Logitech G502 which I got rid of because of the textured side which was really difficult to clean.

    I've got one from the last deal (a few months ago)

    I don't have any gunk on my mouse. It gets daily driven.

  Bought one at the $65 deal as I've had good experiences with Copperhead and Deathadder.. Disappointed.
  Teenage daughter picked the $11 Victsing over this, maybe size or colour.
  Thought I'll use it for work , replacing MX Anywhere 2S, as this fits the hand better.
  It feels light and non substantial. Movement across screen doesn't feel as smooth even after tinkering around with Razer Software.
  (Linked using Bluetooth, can't find the dongle).
  Maybe it works better in games.

  I might be easily pleased but for $64 I really like mine. Replaced my discontinued G700s and was really easy to switch to. I like how much lighter it is and battery has last for over a month without needing changing.

  HeyHeyHeyIsItADeal on 24/08/2020 - 11:03

  dam I have a wired G502 but I want a wireless replacement :L even the wireless G502 is bad because they replaced it with bad switches. Anyone know an actually good wireless mouse ?

  • 

    ihavok on 24/08/2020 - 11:15

    If you find out, let me know :-(

    I'm naively waiting on a wireless mouse that's due to be released by Glorious that they say details is coming out 'soon' (months away?).

    Closest alternative I can think of to a wireless G502 (based on shape, buttons, etc) would be a Razer Basilisk Ultimate wireless. These are not cheap though and I struggle to justify the price.

    I might wait a couple of months for Black Friday / Cyber Monday, etc.

  Hi there, noticed you have a G903. I have one but it's getting on a bit but still works. Would you think that this is worth upgrading from? or more of a side grade?

  • 

    mingofmongo on 24/08/2020 - 11:53

    It's a side-grade. Apart from the ergonomics I can't really differentiate them. The option to use bluetooth is the only other difference.

  I have this mouse and also the Razer mamba wireless among other mice and i prefer mamba wireless.

  This mouse is ok but too plain jane and its smaller.But obviously much better battery life and can use bluetooth as well.

  Razer really needs to replace their awful logo. It looks so juvenile.

• 

  Nilfunds on 24/08/2020 - 14:45

  i have one.

  have to just say, its more like a $50 mouse

  the tracking is the best i've had on wireless but thats about it.
  feels light and flimsy for this sort of money, i have decent wired mice to compare to.

  don't make me say i told you so later, ok?
