My Razer Naga Pro died and I'm absolutely not buying another one for what it costs. But I also can't seem to find a replacement with the same sort of layout this one had. I'll link a picture, but I'm essentially looking for a mouse that has a lot of side buttons but still has a place for me to rest my thumb without having to worry about accidentally pressing buttons. I don't really like 12 button MMO style mice for this reason, as I constantly feel like I'm going to accidentally press a button. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Edit: I also want to note that I'm right handed, and I hate the feel of ambidextrous mice. I like being able to lay my hand on the mouse and know exactly where my fingers are supposed to go.

I like it but I do get odd double clicks here and there, that can be very annoying, and it's older brother the g602 had the same issue. However the build quality of the g602 was better, the rubber on the g604 has degraded much quicker, and I had to reglue some of the top plastic on the left side of the mouse.

Logitech's quality is going down while their prices stay the same/rise

I do like the g604 for the most part but I really would recommend another brand if possible.

Not only is the quality going down hill, but the customer service is absolute shit now. Used to be you'd get a new mouse, no questions asked, because the double clicking thing is/was a known issue. When I had to replace my g703 a couple years back, the hoops they made me jump through to prove that it was actually broken was ridiculous. I know of several people who have had similar experiences. Took over 2 weeks to get them to send me a new one.

I've basically had to quit buying Logitech mice due their build / switch quality falling thru the floor over the past 5 years.

I've gone thru 5 g300s mice in the last 5 years or so. (I like the button layout)

Yeah it's tempting to build my own damn mouse around the logic board with my own switches lol

It's not the most difficult repair to swap the Moise buttons out, they're standard parts. You need to know your way around a soldering iron though.

Edit: You do have to buy replacement skates though

Sure but you shouldn't have to, like they know dust gets in the switch and does that they just don't fix it
