Good mouse for a developer?

Question

Iron

Looking for the perfect mouse for work! =) Maybe someone can advise from personal experience? It is clear that this is a matter of taste. But if you have a _good_ mouse that doesn't just "work", but that you really love - tell us about it. For example, I found an ideal keyboard for myself (A4Tech KV-300H), but not a single mouse became "native".

Answer 1

Well, actually, the mouse is chosen by hand, and not by profession.

Answer 2

Logitech m705 ( https://market.yandex.by/product/4974438?was_redir... The
battery lasts a very long time (I have not changed it even once in a year), the wheel is clear, everything is convenient. You can not read nonsense about a displaced sensor.

Answer 3

Not one has become native ... probably because the main developer tool is the keyboard. I have a wired optical Logitech ... judging by the shape of the case, yellowed from old age. because the logo and all identification plates have been erased, but the mouse still works.

Answer 4

The mouse and keyboard are purely personal.
Ordinary casual shoes in the store are chosen not by profession, but by foot. Regardless of the profession, you can take sneakers and shoes and moccasins.
Same with mouse/keyboard. Who works on a laptop, someone drags himself from mechanics, someone needs a backlight. Someone interfere with the wires, someone on the contrary only the wire.
The main thing is that you feel comfortable. Again, there is a habit for which you need to use a couple of weeks.

Answer 5

Maybe not quite in the subject, but I haven’t used a mouse at all for more than three years, since the ThinkPad appeared. For those who like to use the keyboard, hotkeys, in my opinion, not a mouse, but a TrackPoint is ideal. You need to get used to a couple of weeks, then you can’t pull it by the ears. Hands are always on the keyboard, no need to grab the mouse, then back to the keyboard, the cursor is where you left it and it stands, there is also scrolling (instead of the wheel). All movements are very precise, you can easily draw, design, it turns out much more accurately than with a mouse. Of course, if you are used to working only with a mouse, without a keyboard at all, then the mouse wins in speed. But if you work with hot keys, with a keyboard, then such a scheme definitely wins in terms of speed and convenience. Plus, you don’t need rugs, you don’t need a horizontal surface, you can work lying down without problems.
There are separate keyboards with TrackPoint for USB, for example, this one.
This thing has become truly native. A couple of times the children picked up and lost this red thing (it can be removed and changed easily), this was a tragedy every time, take up the mouse again.
Well, in zero gravity, the mouse will not work either)))

Answer 6

Furiously plus Saboteur Mouse - the matter is so individual that you can only give general recommendations, well, tell about your own experience - suddenly it will help.
The mouse is selected exclusively by hand. That is, not by tyrnet, but in the store - you come and feel them until you get bored. Because everything matters:
- landing at the table (high, low, deep or on the tip of a chair ...)
- a working hand. The right-hander holds the mouse not like the left-hander, but if he is still right-handed, but the mouse drives with his left hand - like me, for example :)
- grip, that is, the manner of holding the mouse - with the palm of your hand, fingers, with emphasis on the table, without emphasis ...
- mouse weight. This, oddly enough, is a factor so significant that even a set of weights is attached to super-duper mice. For example, I'm used to a heavy mouse in which two AA batteries are inserted
- the shape of the case. Many mice, including quite good ones, are made exclusively for the right hand grip, so let's say for me they are uncomfortable to hold. In addition, the shape can be round or oval, designed for different palms - large or small. A person with large palms will be uncomfortable working with a narrow oval mouse, and vice versa, a person with pianist's hands will be uncomfortable with a large round mouse.
- the wire. That is a wired mouse or wireless. This usually matters to gamers - it is believed that a wireless mouse gives response delays.
My first mouse was the Genius Hi-Mouse - now I can't even find a description of it. Then there was Genius Optical Value TwinTouch. But I consider the Logitech LX5 to be the best mouse - I used it until the microphones under the buttons failed :)

Answer 7

For me, Roccat kone xtd is the best thing I've seen since logitech mx300
