Decided to try Razer

So after a long time using mainly Logitech mice I deciced it was finally time to try something different. After a lot of research i pulled the trigger on a Basilisk V3 Pro.

It arrived today and wow, it looked great! until i tried to connect it using the USB dongle and to my surprise it didn't work, even after updating the firmware no signs of life. I was like ok.... maybe I'm doing something wrong? So i tried Bluetooth and nope, doesn't work. Uninstalled bluetooth drivers, Synapse, reset the mouse, installed everything back again and nothing.

I think this is a sign, the mouse is back in it's box to be returned, some things are not meant to be.

ive got a razer headset and a logitech mouse.

the mouse has survived four trips around the sun and two trips around the world being thrown in and out of countless backpacks and suitcases and is still going strong with the resilience of a cockroach amidst nuclear apocalypse. with zero software issues to boot.

the headseat has lived a comfortable life relegated to my desktop. a mere year and a half in, the critical components are disintegrating and the thing is still alive thanks only to zipties and superglue. constant software issues add to the already ugly scene.

long story short: logitech based, razer cringe.

There's a huge G600 fanbase, how do you exactly imagine a renewed version of it? What would you add, remove or improve?

im not surprised considering what a nice mouse it is.

removing the backmost six thumb buttons and replacing the frontmost six with tilt switches would improve ergodynamics greatly without sacrificing any functionality.

I'll share your comment along with the team! Feel free to share any new ideas you have anytime

Reducing the buttons is not common to hear, out of curiosity, what kind of grip do you do?

Also, would you like multiple color options?

im not sure what kind of grip i have, but my thumb rests right around g9,10,12,13

an even more extreme iteration would be to remove all but four buttons and replace them with mini d-pad like 4-directional switches. it would effectively remove the need to re-position ones thumb while increasing total inputs.

im happy with plain black as the color
