Logitech G502 Hero for many years. This was one of my favorites gaming micebut it was always too heavy for my taste (it weighs 121g without any additional weights).

Upgrading from G502 to a lightweight mouse like Razer Cobra Pro (77g) was night and day for fast sweeping movements (think of a 180 degree turn in Counter-Strike), but I miss the cozy embrace of the G502 thumb rest. I also wanted something only A little heavier for everyday use.

That's where the Razer Basilisk V3 X HyperSpeed comes in. It takes the best parts of both mouse designs and combines them into one: a slightly lighter design (110g) than the G502, a textured thumb rest, and fantastic performance for a wireless peripheral.

You can push the DPI up to 18,000, although I don't think you'll ever really get there. I spend anywhere from 800 to 1600 depending on what I'm doing, and going much higher than that seems overkill. But if you're limited on desktop space or want the best performance possible, a higher DPI makes sense.

The Basilisk V3 X HyperSpeed also has incredible battery life – up to 535 hours on a single charge. I can use mine for a little over a week without it dying, and that's between hours of gaming and daily internet use.

It uses a single AA battery, which is not as premium as it is built-in and rechargeable. But for under $50 during the Cyber Monday sales, it's far from a bad compromise.

And of course, if you want that RGB sparkle, the scroll wheel is Chroma-ready so you can add a personal touch to your setup.
