12 years?! Man, you're lucky. I'd be happy if any of mine would have lasted half of that.

That means I'll have to give Steelseries mice a look, even if the new ones are full of RGB.

I got a SteelSeries Rival 100 in 2016 and then a SteelSeries Rival 3 in 2022, so that would be almost six years (it's missing three months), assuming I didn't have any other mouse between the two - I don't think I had, but I'm not 100% sure. Regardless, I'm still using the Rival 3, so that's about four years now. I don't love the RGB part, but for a pretty basic mouse, I don't have many complaints. My main gripe is SteelSeries pushing its 'ad'/software (don't remember what exactly but very much unwanted) through Windows Update, I think. It was a get annoyed once kind of thing and hasn't bothered me since, but I still hate that it happened. Not sure if things are any better with other gaming equipment manufacturers.

The RGB and bloatware don't pose a problem. That Sharkoon mouse I posted had a glowing led that didn't bother me much, and it's not my intention to download any software. And even if the RGB bothered me, I guess I could always download the software, turn it off and then uninstall it.

But thanks for the feedback.
