10 Best Budget Gaming Mice Under $60 for 2024

[@entername6874]

Pretty acceptable list. I would just swap ajazz aj199 with attack shark x3 just because x3 is cheaper compared to ajazz but its the 100% same mouse. I tested most of these mouses (except mchose a5 and ajazz aj139) so I wan't to put some personal opinions about them, since no1 of these brands didn't pay me as a sponsorship. Top tier choice: 1. VXE R1 Pro Max is the best at money/quality ratio, such an amazing orgasmic feels from coating compared to another ones from that list (I had white version, it's also looks and feels like a very expensive hi-end mouse). 2. Zaopin Z1 Pro very solid mouse, if you prefer this shape then yeah it is must have for you. Build quality of my tested 500mah red version was flawless. 3. Vgn F1 moba and Pro Max, (I would recommend Moba cause of better switches) feels like a mouse for a pretty big hand. Build quality is also very solid. Meh choice: 1. Attack Shark x3 (solid mouse, can't say anything bad about it especially for this cheap price, if you have limited budget it is your choice). 2. Ajazz aj199 (100% same mouse as attack shark x3 but with changed logo and higher price). Bad choice: 1. The Darmoshark m3s, it feels like a 10$ mouse, seriously. Very very POOR quality of plastic, like it screams 'I'm very cheap CHINESSE mouse' when you get it in your hand. I think it can be interested ONLY because of TTC switches and 2k dongle included. 2. Delux m800 pro/ultra is SOOOO MUCH overhyped mouse (because its a razer viper clone shape), BUT it have VERY poor quality and very high chance of defective issues from the box (I tested 6pcs of them in every color, only 3 was without major issues). Highly don't recommend it, same as Darmoshark m3s. 3. Phylina is very poor and cheap clone, feels like a chinesse iphone clone, worse than delux and darmoshark. The build quality is also very poor, you can only buy it cause of shape. Feels like it was manufactured in the cellar. p.s. I apologize for any inaccuracies in some sentences, just because english is not my main language. Peace!

[@OhItsNoctu]

The Aj199 and X3 are not the same mouse. They're similar but absolutely not the same. The shape is slightly different (enough to make me prefer the X3 shape) and the X3's weight distribution is slightly off as it's heavier towards the back. That's just to name two key differences.

What about the kysona m600

[@VoltaReviews]

Great to see the VGN Dragonfly up on the list. I really need to pick the Zaopin Z1 up. Loved the Orochi V2 and Aria XD7

[@Gen3DTech]

Good list...mine would only be slightly different. If you are looking for a decent Ergo under $60, I like the Darmoshark N3 2K. It is much improved from the OG N3, and can be had for only around $35. There will be a N3 Pro that will be 4K later this year also. I also like the M600 over the X3. I probably would have stuck the Redragon G49-Pro in there also. I have to copies that are both really good QA wise. 4K paired right out of the box for $35 is really nice too. It was a big surprise for me.

[@nonri500]

The king of budget mouse reviews. The reviews themselves tho, absoultely priceless.

[@DaveAlkema]

Great list! I think on my personal list the Attack Shark would be a bit higher, but I haven't used the Z1 Pro or VXE yet. My VXE is sitting at the post office, so have to pick that up soon!

[@AimAdapt]

I agree perhaps I was too harsh on the Attack Shark because of the older tech. I just hope that the 4k version will feel the exact same way. I should have it in any day now.

[@ndMaikel]

it's have been 1 month. I hoped you picked up the VXE from the post office :D How is it holding it up to the Attack Shark x3?

[@Alex-bl8uh]

Thanks! For making those vids and answering the comments. It makes it so much easier to make informed buying decisions!

Would love to see a review on the Kysona m600

[@ohLurch]

EspTiger makes Tiger Ice skates for the MCHOSE a5 but I’ve only been able to find them on the Mechkeys website. I ordered them when I ordered the mouse and they’re great. The stock skates are kinda bad so it’s a necessary upgrade with this mouse.

[@_tesfaye]

hi Liam ,please help me ,which mouse would you choose between vxe r1 pro and dareu a950 pro (plastic version) dareu 4-5 dollars more expensive but with a 4k dongle.which mouse is better in performance and quality?Which mouse shape you prefer? I have doubts about the shape I love the ss sensei shape. My palm is 18 x 10. Is 4k worth the overpayment?

[@AimAdapt]

They are both great. I wanted the Dareu to be on the list but it was too expensive for the 4k version. I honestly prefer the white vxe pro

[@Alexbarajasc]

ooo let's goo! I've been waiting for this video for a long while. Thank you for all the effort you put into your videos. it really shows!

[@drowninggames]

Been using the AJ199 (non 4k with that removable shell) and the VXE R1 Pro and I must say the pro is quiet a bit nicer imo. On the AJazz I had to sand off the sensor ring and it protruded way to far and would catch on the pad. I think the 4k version without the removable back is much better.

[@sebaba001]

yeah it should be better but is more expensive. btw if your shell creaks in the aj199 you can fix it by adjusting the screws, mine feels a lot more solid after doing that

[@drowninggames]

@@sebaba001 the cost me about the same tbh, was like £5 in it after shipping

The se version (had it and returned it) and based on websites the non pro version also, have a really bad or no coating. My hands would get sweaty after 1 game of overwatch. I use the vgn f1 pro as main and also have attack shark x3 and their coating is far better than se version. Pretty sure the vxe pro version uses same coating as these two but I don't own pro to tell.

Should I get the Dragonfly f1 moba or the Vxe R1 pro max

Moba

[@panagiotisgoulas8539]

Look the mice from above, the side buttons on vgn are miles better than vxe which are literally inside the shell. I own both btw and size wise there is not much difference.

[@panagiotisgoulas8539]

Dragonfly is better than vxe imo.They are literally equal in every aspect but vxe side buttons are not fat and very close to the shell. It makes it harder for me to press the forward side button due to that. It also gets worse if you add side grips. Maybe adding grips on top of side buttons helps. It is something that should be adressed to later releases though
