    Ah, then something from Logitech like the G403 wired or G Pro would probably be cheaper for you.

    ended up getting the logitech G502 Proteus spectrum. originally it was $129 AUD, then discounted to $89 AUD and then a futher 20% off so it ended up being around $72...not bad cos the glaive would be at least $112 AUD.

    Yeah that one is really popular, I just don't like it for gaming because it's extremely heavy.

    G303 has been my best mouse ever, and combined with Steelseries 4HD it is mouse & pad nirvana for me!

    I tried a hard pad before (Logitech G440) and it just wasn't for me. I have shaky/twitchy hands, so I turn DPI and sensitivity down, and low friction hard pads make my accuracy worse with light mice because they slide around too easily. So the standard SS QcK, one of the higher friction cloth pads, has been my go-to for years. Plus when I feel the friction become more noticeable, I know it's time to clean it. :p

    I'm a fingertip grip user with only 13cm per 360 degC turn, so it's been the best combo I can find so far.

    I'm at 45 cm/360 myself. My grip is like a mix of palm and claw. I tried the G Pro, but didn't like the low profile and ambidextrous shape, so I settled on a G403.
