I hope this community is the right one.

I’ve had a Razer Basilisk Essential for at least 5 years, and it’s starting to give up (left click starting not to work properly).

So I’m looking for a mouse to replace it, the main problem I’ve found with this one is that I can’t open it just to clean it. I’d like to be able to do that with the new one.

Otherwise, I think it’s perfect, I like the layout of the buttons (I don’t want one with less or more, just the same).

Do you have any advice?

    I have the G502 and I have issues with accuracy. I like the layout, buttons, and most important for me the scroll swap. Not sure what it’s called but swapping from click scroll and free scroll. I can’t tell you how annoying it is to not be able to swap between the two for me.

    That said I find it hard to move the G502 a few pixels compared to the old school Microsoft optical mouse. Anyone else have this issue or is it a me issue?

      I feel that. In my experience, the 502’s sensor is much more picky about the surface under it. I had to get a matte black mouse pad to get an even single-pixel precision. I also learned to make use of the DPI clutch button when continuous precision matters, like drawing in GIMP.
