definitely! i only replaced my G7 because it started to go on the fritz. Currently using the RAT9 as it still has hot swappable batteries which the G700 lacks. bought a G700 as well however for comparisons sake and use it as my work mouse. Annoys me every time i have to use it plugged in

Razer Copperhead. Must be ~4 years old now. The silicon/rubber pieces (grips on the side and the scroll wheel) are starting to look a bit scummy, but otherwise it hasn't missed a beat.

Haven't had the Razer software/drivers installed for a long time now tho, as they always gave me the shits. The mouse itself is great though, much better than the $15 generic mouse I used for a couple years before I got this, and bucketloads better than the dell/microsoft mouses I've had over the years at work.

+1 for the G5, had mine for 4 years and still going strong.

Just semi upgraded to a G500, doesn't quite seem the same as my G5 but Im sure I will get used to it, but I still use my G5 at my GFs place, love it.

Recently upgraded from a G9 to a G700 and the main issue im having is the laser is more forward than it is in the g9 so my aim is all of.

JUST TO BE DIFFERENT..

Saitek Cyborg. V1. got it on release along with the keyboard. not a single issue with it at all, apart from the mechanical cover not going all the way forward, but thats because i didnt put it back together properly after i cleaned it... that and the down scroll occassionally goes up.. think thats a cleaning issue though.

I use a RAT 9 too... If i had my choice again i wouldn't get one.. They are not worth the $$$

Unfortunately my logitech G7 died.. and there hasn't been a better mouse built yet..

Microsoft Sidewinder 8 was pretty close until the snap in power connecter melted and fused to the mouse

super happy with my current mouse, not to everyone's liking I'm sure but I do - great shape and performance - Teflon skates and Razer innards with a classic Microsoft shape. Like every real mouse, it's got a tail too

Oh and it's got to be at least 4-5 years old too.

Microsoft Habu.

Razer Mamba. Side rubber things have come off a while ago, and it's getting annoying to use now. Looking at a Corsair M60, there's not many good wireless options out there that I like sadly. RAT9 is an option, as I do like the freedom the Mamba gives me but the battery life is less than pleasing.

(If anyone wants to read between the lines here, I'll be letting a mamba go for cheap once I replace mine if they wanna fix it. The base station plays up occasionally as it's had a swim in hot chocolate a year or so back.)

The left button on my MX-1100 is dying.

Hoping to be able to afford an M950 soon.

Logitech G500, I think I'll be keeping it for a looooong time

Tt eSports BLACK ... Very nice mouse and good features.

Last mouse - Logitech G3 - Nice mouse, good for people who mouse with their fingers or for those with small hands.

Current mouse - Logitech G500 - Hated it at first, it felt huge and uncomfortable. I had to hide my G3 to force myself to get used to the G500. Now I wouldn't be without it, definitely the nicest mouse I've ever used.

I had a couple of G7's that I really loved, but they were such unreliable pieces of shit, I just got sick of RMA'ing them. Now I have a Sidewinder X8, which is pretty good, and has never missed a beat. If I was getting something new now, I'd been seriously looking at the Corsair Vengeance M60 - seriously well built piece of kit.

G9x bought when first released still going strong.
