Mouse of the Year 2024

[@alynflo]

For me the mouse of the year is Ajazz AJ179Pro, followed by Viper V3 Hyperspeed 69g with lithium battery. AJ179Pro has 8K dock although I use it in 2K. QC is good. I can compare it to V3, but I would have liked it to have harder clicks like V3 but at the same time it is quieter. I also tested V3 Pro but I returned it after 18 days because it is too light and the battery lasts too little where AJ179 Pro lasts the same but has the dock and after a game session you intuitively put it on.

[@DatBoyGuru]

the 179 is $79 i think and it's a pretty solid deal. for me i prefer no dock.

Crazy the R1 get such high recognition after all this time. Shows how good it is. I have medium sized hands (19CM) and find the R1/Mad R shape perfect for me and my relax claw grip. Those mice are unbeatable value and great build quality and not just for the price. Though the older batches of Mad R do have uneven bases (which I had a problem with my spare white copy). Still aside from ethics which a lot of reviewers are hung up on; which also includes keyboards.. ATK/VXE/Fierce Gaming Gear/Madlions make some absolute bangers and top tier products.

[@DatBoyGuru]

yeah i think 99% of users don't know the difference of an original shape or plagiarized shape.

[@hinchlikescake7592]

@@DatBoyGuru True if it gets people like 90-95% there, at a fraction of the cost.. then its a no brainer. Mouse companies copy each others shapes all the time. But ATK takes it to another level lol.

Thanks for the list! I'm currently choosing between buying Mad G Max, X1 Ultimate (25% off on their site right now), or ES21 Pro next.

[@DatBoyGuru]

x1 if you have bigger hand

[@hgantic13]

@@DatBoyGuru I do usually prefer bigger shapes with my hands and I like how the newer X1 Ultimate has the bigger skates out of the box (like viper v3 pro) and lower weight. Thanks for the rec 😃

[@DatBoyGuru]

@hgantic13 that is a good point for that reason alone i would pick the x1

[@jR0xas]

You'll have to raid my home with special forces to get me off my modded purple OP1 8k and my red X2V2 mini. I've spend way too much money on mice just to realise that nothing touches the X2 mini shape, nothing except the OP1 which is like an alternate version of it.

[@DatBoyGuru]

the xm2we was my favourite mouse of 2023

[@cmo8627]

What is that mousepad called? Looks nice.

[@smellypp7860]

what do you think is the best mouse to buy under 70, coming from glorious model o wireless and claw grip

[@DatBoyGuru]

that's probably a large viper shape? maybe get a viper v2 clone

[@DreamingPhenom]

I just ordered the MChose G3 Ultra coming from many years of loving the G Pro HERO (shape, but pretty much everything about it). It is basically a Hero but with the latest sensor, chipset, 8k polling, wireless, and 20g~ shaved off. And the price- sub $50. I'd look into it if you have small to medium hands

[@DatBoyGuru]

@@DreamingPhenom great value !!

[@shinefake48]

To be honest, scyrox is just lamzu undercover 😂 so quality wise should be good

[@DatBoyGuru]

the v6 addressed the wobbly triggers of the v8 and is overall a better product

[@shinefake48]

Got the atk x1, and damn how locked in I’m when using it, the v3 pro shapes actually goated, I was using the sora v2 before, I was doing pretty good with it, thought it was going to be my main until I got the x1. To be honest, it’s prob the best mouse I have bought so far, for the price of a v3 pro, I can get 2 x1, as well as the omron clicks being a way better switch than the razer opticals.

[@DatBoyGuru]

yeah i like how the vv3p click sounds but wish it felt like an omron optical. rawm also makes a vv3p shape called the MH 01 with hot swapping switches

[@Seas0nedChef]

For me it's the Lamzu Maya X. I love the shape and comfiness of the mouse. I only need to nail down my dpi ( Can't decide between 400 and 1600dpi)

[@DatBoyGuru]

maybe 1000 is your number:)

[@Seas0nedChef]

@@DatBoyGuru I would be that weirdo haha

[@Seas0nedChef]

@@DatBoyGuru Trying it out right now :)

[@Seas0nedChef]

@@DatBoyGuru I think it's 400 at this point. I feel like shooting marshmallows with 1600 dpi and i have decent gun control

[@expertcynos2123]

bro can you suggest keyboard of the year

[@DatBoyGuru]

i didn't try enough boards. but magger68 and wooting were great and recently gamakay and Epomaker HE85 are nice too

[@SkinnySteve]

thanks, today scyrox cancelled my purchase and was looking for a good alternative

[@DatBoyGuru]

the v6 is also a good choice

[@divinityai]

atk x1 series seems good enough for me, worse than razer but 1/2-1/3 price

[@DatBoyGuru]

i bought x1 pro on pre-sale at $50 and i thought that was a smoking deal.

[@electrostrax4869]

vxe mad r > vxe r1

[@DatBoyGuru]

yeah

[@Sarcaustik]

Why would you prefer vxe r1 se plus as opposed to vxe r1 pro/pro max?

[@DatBoyGuru]

maybe i like the raw the plastic feeling idk. the clicks feel pretty solid too. afaik when they made the SE+ they improved the overall shell/button/switches package

[@Sarcaustik]

@@DatBoyGuru Thanks for the reply. Which would you recommend for me vxe mad r or atk x1/ultimate? my gpro is dying so need a replacement. Thanks in advance.

[@DatBoyGuru]

X1 will be much more comfortable coming from gpx

[@_Khalmyr_]

To me, waizowl ogm pro v2

[@DatBoyGuru]

yeah great choice too a bit expensive but top drawer

[@Caxel108]

Are you a shoe collector? No one cares about the box for mice

[@DatBoyGuru]

idc about boxex and prefer the vaxee/egg approach. but apparently there's a huge number of enthusiastic collectors that place value in the unbox experience.

[@Anthony-jx6fz]

I do

[@DatBoyGuru]

i know many people that do
