Got my small Finalmouse ULX off xtremesolution and it was broken out of the box. Waited 4 days for delivery and now they tell me to RMA through Finalmouse.

Seeing they have 5 in stock on their shopee app I just thought they'd do a swap for me and RMA on their side. I already have a Pulsar X2 Mini so this was the only logical upgrade for my use.

Wasting time buying mice from XS. It's amazing that they don't even want to deal with RMA when they are selling it. Finalmouse hae very bad QC and even YouTubers have mentioned it.

After I discovered mouse buttons are replaceable I regret throwing away all the good but old mice. :(

Broken cables can also be repaired.

That's why i never buy anything from them. :)
Truth be told, we've been overpaying for mice since the rise of China mice.
Personally, I have played the best on Pulsar X2H, Darmoshark M3S Pro and my personal favourite Fantech Helios II XD3V3 (Zowie S2 inspired shape).

They all do not have bloatware that needs to run in the background and does 99% of what overpriced Razer and other brands charge you for. Brand loyalty for mouse to me now does not seem relevant at all when you can get 99% of the performance at almost 50% of the cost with similar mice.

That's why no one talk about Filco, Ducky, HHKB these days. Their days are over.

idk man, I bought Kailh mouse switches from China and they feel like crap compared to the stock Logitech. But at least they work for now.

You should avoid Kailh switches for a while. Many that bought Kailh white blade switches with the VXE R1 Pro max have double clicking and sticky actuation from the switches themselves.

The most reputed ones so far for me has been Huano Pink dots blue shell and TTC Gold Opticals. The Huano sounds better for sure than the TTC Golds in terms of crispiness. TTC Gold sounds abit more hollow but actuation and performance are stellar on both switches.

Recently bought 2 lighter mouse(compared to the g502 I've been using for years) just to try. Endgame gear XM1(wired) and VXE R1 Pro(wireless).

Turns out I like the cheaper Endgame gear XM1 better in FPS game. The dark reflex model has the glossy material which kinda sucks so dark frost(matt) may be a better choice. The feel is great though after buying and attaching a grip tape sticker.

VXE R1 Pro feels too light for me and aiming doesn't feel as good for some reason.

thank you for all the recommendations here. After much considerations, I have pulled the trigger on the Delux M800 Ultra because I want the bluetooth function for convenience. Just received this morning and now a happy user. Light and responsive mouse for daily work use. Looks good too.
