South Africa's favourite gaming mice

[Jan]

Most popular gaming mouses in South Africa

Logitech, Corsair, Razer, Steelseries, Asus, and Redragon are the most popular mouse brands among South African gamers, and others are increasing in popularity.

This is according to feedback from Wootware and Dreamware Tech, who added that the market is widespread, with other manufacturers like MSI and Xtrfy increasing in popularity.

Which of these do - or do not - require an active internet connection to work?

This is exactly the same as just releasing all the brands that make gaming mice? Like zero facts as to which model outsold which etc besides the Logi.

Those omron switches aren't great. This weekend I had to disassemble my mouse to fix one. Now the other is playing up too, along with the wheel. Will be going back to Logitech next. Not sure what switches they use but my previous mice lasted much longer

 

[Petec]

I still call the plural "Mice"

I like my Cooler Master mouse, OK .

Eww people, all these mad catz rat style mice shaped like alien dicks with 50 buttons on them. SA seems to have lost a few good brands too, can no longer get BenQ Zowie or newer EndGame models.

This article felt like clickbait with a list of manufacturers / brands that you can buy rather than actually going into detail of what people actually are buying in SA. Poorly researched and presented

The couple of Logitechs that I have repaired have also used Omron switches.

hmm. I saw the 502x has optical switches. Yet I found a youtuber who had to replace their switch too, so I guess you can't win.

This explains why its soo easy to kill South Africans in online gaming.

None of them are actually for gaming unless you play World of Warcraft.

Logitech G Pro Wireless, Model O Wireless.

You need those, they are light, very fast and perfect for FPS.

In matter of fact the G102 is probs one of the best corded gaming mice. Its quick, fast and great in FPS.

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.

One of the OG gaming mice, mine lasted about the same, think I got my MX518 around 2005... It was a game changer being able to change your DPI on the fly.
