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 love g502 wireless and g pro wireless. I had 2 Razer deatheradders 2013 (purchases in 2014) that both had left click issues within a couple months of purchase which made me move away from Razer.

      Not sure how they are with opening up to clean, probably just as awful, but I also have really enjoyed Logitech mice for many years now.

        You can disassemble the G502 to its smallest bits with just a PH0 screwdriver and a prying tool.

      I had a wired version of a G305 I think, and it made me move away from logitech because it had double clicking on the left button under a year, then got a new one through warranty, and it happened again.

      So I’m now testing a mouse with optical switches (Razer viper) to see if they last more, it’s already been a year and I’m a heavy user since I love FPS games.
