Does any of you have (recent) experience with Razer mice?

My current mouse has started to miss clicks and I'm honestly tired of replacing them every couple of years or so. I'm at a point where I don't knwo if it's worth spending more and get a mouse with optical switches to see if they really last longer or just say f*ck it and go with the cheapest mouse I can find that's comfortable knowing that it won't last long.

The reason for the Razer question is that I've found a Razer DeathAdder V3 for a bit less than 60€, which could be the mouse to get if I go that route.

Also, no more Logitech mice for me. They're very comfortable, but I'm done with them and their POS switches.

I have never used a Razer mouse. I have recently had a trackball from Kensington, sadly the mouse wheel sensor started behaving erratically. I now have a Delux M618 Plus vertical mouse, feels rather comfortable.

I also never had a Razer mouse yet.

My first mouse was the Amiga "tank" mouse (bundled to my Amiga 500). I also discovered another compatible mouse in my computer archive... don't remember if I bought it for the Amiga or as GEOS mouse for the C128:

I got my first PC in 1993 and I bought it with the "Microsoft Mouse 2.0", which was released in the same year:

I loved it, so my next PC Mice were also from Microsoft: the first "IntelliMouse" in 1996 (mouse wheel!!!), the IntelliMouse Explorer in 1999 (optical sensor!!!) and the Microsoft Habu in 2006 (Razer tech inside).

The Microsoft Habu survived 9 years and I replaced it 2015 in 2015 with my current mouse: the SteelSeries WOW Gold Edition.

Already in it's twelfth year, not as pretty anymore... but it refuses to die!
