My WMO is dying, wich mouse to buy? (30 comments)

( Forum: HW)

Posted by Kabal2x @ 20:39 CDT, 16 July 2014 - iMsg

Today, after +-10 years of service, my WMO is showing signs of dying. It will 'disconnect' and 'connect' randomly, tried several USB ports, no change. Sad day.

Wich is today the best alternative to the masterpiece called Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse? I don't like gimmicks like 34234 buttons, DPI buttons or additional weights. For me, the WMO is the perfect mouse. I use the XL Qck+ Fnatic mouse pad.

Thanks for the help

Consider using the search function, there's a thread about this once every two weeks.

dacheng sells fake WMO's... they're just really good fakes. Only legit ones right now are takasta's.

Did you try WMO?

<< Comment #6 @ 00:57 CDT, 17 July 2014 >>

I'd go with WMO.

<< Comment #7 @ 01:04 CDT, 17 July 2014 >>

There is no close replacement.
WMO is not best.
It's only best for people who were using it for long time.

alternatives:
g100s
kana v2
zowie fk
zowie fk1 (fk2 soon?)
zowie am
zowie ec 2 evo (or CL)
abyssus 2014 (need firmware update)

Abyssus 2014 w firmware update (NO synapse) = Good
Zowie FK1 = Good

Rest on that list is also good but those 2 are better imo, excluding the G100S as I haven't tried that one yet.

The abyssus is not a good mouse, the clicks are terrible.

update: opened the mouse, it was filthy as fuck - 10 years of dirt and grime accumulated inside. But couldn't fix it, sadly. Its oficially dead.
Will buy a new WMO from dachang soon, anyway.

zowie FK. fits your need for a no-bullshit approach, their design philosophy is just plain good.

I might be switching to something more like a Microsoft intellimouse 3.0 if i can find one on craigslist or even ebay. but for others im looking at Steelseries and zowie. and this is something to replace my current deathadder (the 2013 version).
