The Last Stand for AA/AAA Battery Gaming Mice? Am I the only one "fighting" against built-in batteries? My G603 is 3 years old, and I just added a 68g ROG Strix Impact 3 (Wireless). Should I buy a third backup?
Exactly! Your G700 experience is exactly why I'm sticking to AA/AAA mice. The freedom of popping in a fresh Eneloop and getting a 'brand new' mouse in 10 seconds is unbeatable. It's sad that modern flagships are taking away this 'user-replaceable' right.

The technical reason replaceable batteries make sense isn't just philosophical.... it's about failure modes. Lithium polymer cells degrade through charge cycles (typically 300-500 before significant capacity loss), and when they're soldered in, the entire mouse becomes e-waste. Your Eneloop NiMH cells maintain \~70% capacity after 2000+ cycles, and the standardization means you're not dependent on manufacturer parts availability.That said, there's a practical middle ground worth considering: the weight penalty. Your 68g Impact 3 setup is actually pretty competitive, but you're still carrying \~11g of AAA + converter vs. \~5g for integrated lithium. For BIFL longevity tracking, I've found Biflly helpful for identifying which gaming peripherals actually survive beyond warranty periods.. they aggregate real ownership data on failure rates and part availability, which matters when you're trying to stockpile.The G304 is probably your best hedge if you want a backup. It's still in production, uses a single AA, and the sensor (HERO) is genuinely competitive at 1000Hz. One spare seems reasonable; hoarding three feels like over-optimization unless you're planning for a 15+ year timeline.

i'm with you on the replaceable battery philosophy - it's why i still use a g304. the market is definitely shifting toward built-in, but there are still options. the logitech g305 (same as g304 in some regions) is still widely available and uses AA. razer deathadder v2 x hyperspeed also takes AA. as for hoarding, i'd get one backup if you're really worried, but not three. technology changes fast - in 5 years there might be better options even if they have built-in batteries. also, eneloops last for hundreds of charges, so your current mice should last many years with proper care.

While I understand the sentiment, I've actually swapped the built in Li batteries in 2 of my Logitech mice. My old G Pro wireless battery died, so I upgraded it to a 300mah battery. My G502 I just decided to upgrade from the 240mah to a 300mah option. Both are going strong about \~4 years after the swap, G502 is the WFH daily driver as well. G Pro is only for gaming TLDR; They can be swapped if they die, its rather quick and inexpensive (Looks like $9 domestic seller, $4 overseas)

Let’s Talk Wirecutter: What Was Worth It and What Wasn’t?
Loves: * Oven mitts (7 dollars five years ago). I liked them so much I bought them for my mom, who then bought them for my grandma. All of us think they are the best oven mitts. * Casaluna duvet from Target. I don't wake up shivering anymore in winter and it's excellent. * Logitech Wave Keys and Lift. I bought these for a wrist injury before they showed up on the recommended list. I love them dearly. * Mascara, but I've always used that type of mascara. * Victorinox knife. Very nice and sharp. I sliced my thumb open on it one day and the cut took two hours and a pressure bandage to stop bleeding. I assume that means it is good. Can't Complain: * Pots and pans. They're heavy and cook food well. Would another brand cook food just as well? Who knows. * Water filter pitcher. Does what it says. No complaints, but no raves either. * Winter boots. They keep my feet warm, but not so warm that I'm convinced they have magic powers. Overrated: * Blood pressure monitor. Difficult to use and always reads way too low. * Leggings. The waistband was so thin it cut into my waist. It was unbearable.

I don't think I've had one die. I had an Anker PowerConf webcam, which is a brand I trust generally, just not work well with my PC. Half the time the image would be glitchy, it required software to remember the FOV and it wouldn't work. Switched to the Logitech Brio and it's been a tank, no issues. FOV is perfect, I don't need everyone seeing my whole room, just me.

Mac still works flawlessly and tbh I mostly need it just at work. Might be time to check on the windows side again. I’m quite sure it is a driver or firmware issue.

I've been using a C270 for about 4 years. The image quality is fine. You don't need to look like an Insta model on work calls, and besides, what you see locally as "good quality" is almost certainly being compressed and degraded significantly when it's sent over the internet to everyone else. 720p is more than enough.

They are. In the case of Master 3s, the silent switches are rated for 1M clicks, whereas the non-silent version of the same switch is rated for 5M clicks.

Something you didn’t expect to be BIFL but outlasted your expectations?
Cheap AF wireless Logitech mouse and KB combo, I forget the model, almost the cheapest there is. I have/had fancy enough mice (MX Master 3 and gaming variants shit like that), but I found myself using the cheap ultra-light one (M171 or some variant?) that came with this keyboard combo, I had both mice connected and found myself using the ultra light cheap one more and more, until it's basically my daily. Thing feels like it weighs nothing, uses a single AA battery I think which lasts idk 6 months, I forget it's been so long lol. The original did die after many years (4 easy), KB was still working so I bought a same model standalone mouse for next to nothing, like $20 or smth. idk $4 a year that's pretty good I recon, not pure BIFL, but amazing beater yet decent for the $ tho imo

I'd steer clear of Logitech based on my experience of the Master 3s. The left button failed after a little over 2 years, I was able to replace the button, but shouldn't have need to. My previous, bog standard Master was still going strong after 6 years, and with hindsight I regret the upgrade.

Looking for a BIFL wireless mouse.
I’ve had the same issue with cheaper Logitech mice too. If you want something that really lasts, the MX Master series or the G Pro X Superlight are much sturdier—they’re built with higher‑rated switches so they don’t wear out after a year. For more details, you can search on Google—there’s a full review available at **fitmotionworld.com**.

Update: Away Post-Warranty Repair
If the way you're able to get support from a company is first needing to get visibility from social media, their customer service department has failed. Offering repairability *is* customer appreciation and creates a brand relationship. A company will never know how many ways their product is used, and having a good experience is a sales opportunity for future customers. Take Logitech, their good warranty policy has me trust that when it breaks, they value me as a user enough that I can trust their products. I've done huge orders of Logitech products for a previous company I used to work for due to that relationship. Idk the company, but shame on them.

What’s a BIFL thing you bought and now swear by?
A cheap, wireless logitech mouse. I’ve dropped it hundreds of times (at least a dozen of those were down a flight of stairs onto a slate floor) and the thing just doesn’t die. I got a fancy wireless keyboard and mouse set around six years ago but I still haven’t opened the new mouse because my over a decade old mouse defies all logic. I swear I have bones that are more breakable than this computer mouse. I think it cost around $8 a decade ago and the thing might outlive me.

Brands That Used to Be BIFL — But Aren't Anymore?
Logitech... I bought 5 of the basic wireless mouse just to have a few in stock for whenever they inevitably enshittify them. Their CEO was saying "we should do a wireless mouse subscription!" And everyone complained so they backed down from that. But the fact that it was even a consideration is a problem. And they'll probably quietly do it anyway once the furor dies down.

Logitech Speakers. They used to sell an incredible set of speakers called X-530 for only about $100. I bought mine in 2007 and I still use them on my desktop PC to this day. I’ve never had a single speaker go bad either. I’ve since looked into buying another set, and it appears that people caught onto the fact that all of Logitech’s newer speaker sets are garbage in comparison since fully intact X-530’s sell for $300+ on eBay. Trust me, those newer models are awful. I’ve tried two of their newer “improved” models, and returned both within a week. The sound is just so incredibly bad.

Out of those, I'd probably choose the Logitechs However, I've since moved onto using IEM's + Antlion mic. If wireless isn't a deal breaker, I'd recommend IEM's. Don't really need noise cancellation with IEM's if they fit properly + great/raw positional sounds (I play CS and Valorant). Personally, I hated the over filtered EQ sound from all the mass marketed gaming headphones. Also IEM's don't jack up my head/hair with a headband dent

Recommendation for Gaming Headphones?
For wireless, I’d recommend the Logitech G Pro X (Wireless). I used them in many FPS games. If your budget would allow, the sound and mic quality from the Steel Series Arctis Pro Wireless is great from my experience.

Looking for a bluetooth vertical mouse that will last a few years
I’ve been using a Logitech wireless mouse—not vertical, but a simple Bluetooth model—for over 10 years now. It’s survived coffee spills, countless plane rides, and more sticky keys than I care to admit. On one hand, amazing longevity. On the other... am I just too nostalgic, or is Logitech quietly durable? This thing probably witnessed 2–3 battery companies go bankrupt but still survived.

Good durable Wireless Mouse? Doesn't have to be advertised for gaming (I learn my mistake from gaming chairs)
Logitech G502 and G Pro X series all use switches that sit on a secondary daughterboard that can be purchased from Ebay or Aliexpress. You can even buy one with hotswappable switches so you never have to even replace that PCB. What that means is in a few years when the clicks eventually wear out, you simply buy a new set of switches (or a new secondary PCB), open the mouse up, unplug the old ones and plug the new ones in. Boom, perfectly working mouse again. People might not like this opinion but to me, throwing a mouse away because the switches died is like throwing a car away because the gear stick broke. It's such an easy fix if it's Logitech, Asus or Razer because of their implementation, and if you have basic soldering skills, that's every other brand too.

The standing desk, and a wobble board. I thought the wobble board was BS, but it actually makes standing in one place for a long periods of time very comfortable. A MX ergo mouse by Logitech if you get hand pain. It helps me by not moving my wrist back and forth all day and the angle it sits at is more natural. Also for the natural angle, a split and angled keyboard by Kinesis. Anker headset because I am on meetings all day. The best part is being able to flip the mic up to mute it so I don't have to look for a mute button every 5 minutes.

Ok but I have Logitech dongles all over the place and have my travel mouse in my laptop bag permanently so I never forget it. My mx stays at home on the desk and I don’t have to fiddle with dongles as you can sync multiple Logitech mice to a single dongle and I can also if I want to carry my mx over to my personal desk top and use it there either switching dongles. I don’t know if it’s still true, but the mx mice used to go on sale half off regularly

Ergo stuff... It's surprisingly expensive, but y'know what's more expensive? Doctors bills to fix that shit when the pain is finally bad enough to need it. I have a vertical mouse from Logitech... I swear by it... It's $100, but it's sooo worth. If you're having back issues from sitting too long, you might consider a sit-stand desk too. And maybe a good ergo chair... Depending on how much you work has in their home office budget. A good printer could also come in handy. I like the Lazer one we got recently... It's not the best printer out there, it can be frustrating just like any other printer... But the toner lasts way longer than ink cartridges...

1. An actually proper ergonomic chair (no, your $75 chair isn't even close). 2. Height/Position/Rotation/etc adjustable monitor arms for all my monitors. 3. A quality split-ergonomic mechanical keyboard. 4. Ergonomic mouse that is build for work (from Logitech, not super-ultra-expensive ergo-only no features mice) 5. Multiple monitors that don't suck. IMO 27" 1440p 120-165hz (yes refresh matters) is the sweet spot. I have 3x of them. 6. A quality webcam and microphone for meetings. 7. Quality headphones and speakers so I can actually appreciate music while I work, but also hear things privately if I need to (meetings etc) I'd also recommend a quality sit-stand desk, but I don't have one yet (soon!) If you have a work-issued laptop, check if it has Thunderbolt (not just USB-C) and if it has Thunderbolt 3 or newer, then a quality Thunderbolt dock will really serve you well for hybrid work stuff. Thunderbolt is important for getting actually high quality monitor usage. USB-C (non-thunderbolt) docks are horrible for how they handle monitors.

Firstly, get a good quality office chair. Even gaming chairs are really bad. Office chairs are better in pretty much every way, especially for gaming oddly enough. Head over to r/OfficeChairs for more info. Look at spending at least $200 if not much more. Look at Facebook marketplace. In my area, marketplace has a lot of cheap herman miller and steelcase chairs because there are a lot of offices. You should be able to get a great used chair for less than $500 once you know what to look for. The cheapest way to fix your back, is to learn how to sit with proper posture. There are a few great youtube videos like [this one](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSd1sgO8cJk) that will help, but you generally need a decent chair to be able to have proper posture. In addition to posture, make sure to do some stretches every now and then. There are a lot of stretches you can do without even getting up. A good desk as well. It doesn't have to be super expensive and sit to stand, but you need more space than you think, especially working for moth. 30" of depth is a must for me. Ergonomic foot rest is a nice addition. Decent peripherals: Headphones, whether its good noise canceling headphones to focus, or the opposite with open back headphones to pay attention to your surroundings. r/headphones has helped me out before. Ergonomic keyboard and mouse. Logitech is generally a good brand, but do your research. Please get a wrist rest and a mousepad. If you can learn to get used to them, they make mice that look like shark fins, that help reduce arm strain and carpal tunnel. Additionally, since you go into the office, a good idea would be to get a mouse that has a wireless dongle, and Bluetooth, so you only need one mouse. Or just keep the nicer mouse at home and get a different one for the office if you are forgetful. Keyboards can get pretty crazy, just get a functional keyboard from a good brand and it wont die on you. r/keyboards is a good place to look if you wanted to get a nicer one. Any webcam that can do at least 1080p. Not sure if you need a webcam or not, but trust me, whatever webcam you buy is likely gonna be a bit better than a laptop webcam. This will help you look more professional. Monitor with adjustable height. Helps with the whole posture thing. An uninterruptable power supply is great especially if you have a desktop and if you have somewhat frequent black/brown outs. Just make sure you buy one that can handle whatever the maximum wattage is of all the devices plugged into it combined. If you have any questions or want any specific recommendations, just let me know. I have spent the last few years perfecting my home set up. If you only take away one thing from this comment, is learn about sitting posture and get a better chair.

Here's my list: Two monitors (one ultrawide I guess) - the bigger the better (for me). I'm thinking of getting dual 32" monitors next. Or a third 27" Docking station - if using a laptop, a single connection, like thunderbolt, makes switching between WFH and office or bed really clean and easy. Logitech MX Master 2 or 3 - I've tried dozens of mice and unfortunately ($$$) I always go back to this one. Seems to be the best for my carpal tunnel. Good speakers - I listen to music a lot and use studio monitors (Presonus but there are a lot of good ones) because the price/performance seems pretty good. Big desk - I like lots of real estate. ERGONOMIC CHAIR - by far the most important for me. I splurged on a Steelcase Leap V2 and it was the best money I ever spent. Before I got it, every day ended in agony. When I moved overseas, it was the one piece of furniture I brought with me.

Most people have hit on these, and I wanted to give my impressions. I just started a new job which is travel/WFH, and did the following: - Electric adjustable height desk - bought this [VIVO Adjustable Dual Motor](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08P56RD43?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) base, and built a top (98”W x 32”D) to match my existing workbench. This included buying a nice piece of walnut to make a riser for my 3 monitors, the riser pieces I 3d printed. YMMV, I might buy a monitor arm in the future. I have some back issues, and being on my feet, with my monitors at eye level have been a game changer. - Under-desk cable trays for cable management. No more spaghetti tangle hanging off the back - I bought 2 packs of these: [Cable Trays](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DK6K894G?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) - Under-desk mounted 8- receptacle power strips (2 ea). This leads to only having 3 cables between my desk and the walls (2x power, 1x CAT6) - Docking station for work laptop (work provided) - KVM switch with remote to jump between the 4 different computers connected to my setup. - Logitech MX Ergo S Plus Trackball - Swing arm desk lamp. This is an IKEA TERTIAL ($20) mounted on a shelf that is above the desk, so it can be out of the way when I need it. - Good chair. Currently I have one that was extra from my previous work, not sure what it is. Looks like a Leap v2 clone, it works well. - If you don’t live alone, a good lock for the door. My wife has a bad habit of doing a Kool-Aid man impression into my office even with a closed door, and a “please do not interrupt, in a meeting” sign on the door. My best piece of advice: get the largest desk you can for your space. This is why I custom-built mine. I need to look at plans sometimes, and the room this desk gives me is perfect for my needs. As a side note, this desk is in a 10.5’x10.5’ office, and shares space with a 98”Wx30”D workbench, a large toolbox, and an extra chair. I still have space to inflate a full-size air mattress in the room.

Mine and my wife‘s left click died after two years. The reason is that they use click switches that are rated for something like a million clicks. You can buy switches rated for ten million clicks for less than a euro on eBay and swap it out. Of course it’s a tricky soldering job, but because I’m into repairability I tried and did it. Of course, burnt the pad removing the old switch and had to do a jumper cable, but that’s the occasion risk. (Numbers not accurate because it’s been a while since I did it.)

Bose Quietcomfort 25 noise-cancelling headphones- the best I've personally used.
Officially, you can't, but if you're handy enough with a screwdriver then it's almost always possible to replace the battery. I also have a set of QC35s - the battery life is still excellent on them but I would replace the battery myself if it failed. I've replaced the battery on my Logitech H600 wireless headset a few times. I am inclined to agree with you on BIFL though, as the lithium batteries are often specific to a device and there's no drop-in replacement like regular consumer batteries. So if you can't find that specific lithium pack, you're outta luck. And eventually those packs will stop being made as the device itself becomes obsolete. Really, no portable electronics are BIFL. But these Bose QCs are great devices. I've taken them on several 12-hour flights and never fly without them.

Want a durable vertical mouse recommendation
I've had both the Logitech MX Vertical and the Logitech Lift. In short, neither is perfect and I wish Logitech would make a new mouse taking the best from both. My daily is the Lift. The Logitech MX Vertical is very nice. It fits well if you have large hands. The size is nearly perfect for me. The shape is good. The downsides are everything else. The rubber material did not age well on my mouse. Maybe it's my sweat, but it wore the rubber away in some areas and discolored it in some areas. The buttons and the screen wheel are all loud and clicky, which I don't like. I wish there was a separate middle-click button (other than pressing on the scroll wheel). The Logitech Lift is also very nice. People say it's for smaller hands, and I can see how people will smaller hands would prefer it to the MX Vertical. However, I think people will large hands can easily use the Lift too - it's not too small. Still, I would prefer if it was a tad larger in all dimensions. The shape is awesome, a bit better than the MX Vertical because it has a slight curve to it. While I am not a fan of any mice that have a rubber texture, whatever material they used on the Lift has held up much better than the MX Vertical. I like that buttons and scroll wheel as quiet; they still feel clicky but without the noise. I like that there is a button next to the scroll wheel that can be reprogrammed to be a middle-click or whatever else. I wish Logitech would release a new vertical mouse with: \- The size of the MX Vertical \- The curved shape of the Vert \- No rubber materials at all. None. \- The soft buttons of the Vert. \- A scroll wheel from one of the latest MX Masters, with both vertical and horizontal scrolling. \- The third button of the Vert. \- Replaceable standard AA battery.

I still have this mouse, and it works too.

They last around a decade of hard use and abuse, in my experience. If you want actual BIFL, you want an IBM Model M. They were produced starting in 1985 and are still in the wild. They run for $150-300. They will need adapters to plug into modern computers. I knew a lawyer who had one since 1985 and still used it daily. He actually owned three, but once a decade he'd sent it out for maintenance and wanted a spare for his spare in case he had to mail out the backup.

2013 here. Has had hot wax from a lit candle poured onto/into it. A few of the keys deformed from that but still work. Has been dropped, sat on, and generally abused. Still works the same as the day I got it.

This model was the standard for industrial assembly line controls for one of our clients around 2014-15. We built several lines of equipment for them, some in clean room conditions, some in the manufacturing area (oily, occasional metal shavings, and careless users). I visited the factory two years ago, and noticed that at least 3 of the machines still had the same original keyboard we installed 10 years ago. Not ergonomic for constant use, but very resilient.

Logitech k400+ Wireless keyboard/Mouse combo
I use this for my media pc so it doesn't get the every day driver use as my mechanical ducky on my main computer. It is mainly used for downloading cars, selecting youtube videos and other media on my living room media pc. With that in mind, i've owned 2 models of these. The first one lasted 8 years on the included batteries and was never switched off. I only got a new (used) one because my partner had one and it had yellow accents. This current one is 7 years old and on the included batteries. I have dropped it many times and it is still going strong. The Good: Battery Life! - the best battery life i've ever seen, it's like your old game boy advanced you forgot in the closet for 15 years that starts right up when you turn it on. Ergonomics - The left mouse button placement on the top left as well as at the pad itself is great for someone like me with large hands. It's easy to use with both hands while navigating web pages. I do not find it difficult to type with the keyboard in my lap. The Bad: Structure - It does feel a bit flimsy being how light it is. It also has a bit of flex if you try bending it, you could say it feels a bit cheap. Sweaty Palms - If you have moist hands the pad sometimes picks up multi inputs from your finger and resize the web browser. My partner has this problem rather often but i myself have never experienced it.

Best no lag wireless mouse/keyboard
No-lag wireless gaming keyboard and mouse combos do exist, and they’ve improved significantly in recent years. Look for models with 2.4GHz wireless connectivity and low latency response times, specifically designed for gaming. Brands like Logitech (Lightspeed series), Razer, and Corsair offer reliable options that perform on par with wired setups. If you're still unsure, a high-quality wired gaming keyboard and mouse is always a solid alternative for zero input delay.

Go for lightweight mice, to reduce load on your hand.

Got myself an Attack Shark. Cheap enough to get replaced, since a mouse is basically a consumeable at this point, if you use it that much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozcZuz5p3ss

When it was time I moved from Logitech trackballs (especially the huge one in a vertical cage they haven't made for 20+ years) to Elecom trackballs. They are well built (the company is Japanese). I only changed model because a new (\~15 years ago) model came out with a larger trackball operated with the fingers, and it suited me better.

Need to replace my mouse!
I had a Logitech G700 for 13 years, just started having issues. Even the battery is original, been using it since 2012 and I carry it with me when travelling, and whenever I'm not working from home I take it with me. Since I have no backup, decided to get a G502 to be used while I fix the G700 (Pretty good chance a good cleaning and a new battery will be enough, not sure yet though) and maybe for gaming, but now I'm actually considering the G502 as my standard (Gaming AND Work) and leaving the G700 as the backup/travel mouse. Thr G502 is quite good, and the software is so much better it's actually shocking. A G502 X Plus would be ideal, but a G502 Wireless is already amazing. Avoid the wired ones, the wires are VERY fragile. Not sure the G502 will last as long as the G700, but if it lasts half as long I'll already be happy. The G Pro also seems amazing, too few buttons for me though. Do avoid the entry lvl ones (Especially G300 series), they're usualy bluetooth, not rechargeable, use cheaper sensors etc. so most likely they won't last as long. Razer may be an option, but I had the worst experience with the Black Widow V2 (Keyboard), something went horribly wrong in that project. Keys would break and come off in a few months, they didn't sell said keys, and even during warranty I'd have to email them, they'd ask me which keys broke, and would ship the keys to me internationally. Stopped contacting them pretty quickly, the parts being bad is one thing, being taxed for the keys after I paid for a product that broke multiple times during warranty just felt like a scam. The mouses seem to be much better but they kinda lost me with that, maybe I'll give them a go at some point. Maybe.

I'm a huge fan of the Logitech g305. It is ambidextrous minus the side buttons. It is wireless. It wakes up really quickly from sleep just by moving the mouse making it feel like it is always on. It has low enough latency that is even good for competitive games. Uses AA batteries but if you care about weight you can buy a cheap AA to AAA converter. Even with AAA I change the battery every 6 months or so of regular use. There is also a big modding community around this mouse if that's your jam. It is 30 dollars. I've had mine for the past 6 years and it's going strong minus needing new ptfe feet but replacement feet are readily available due to its popularity.

I used to own the first version of MX Anywhere, the one that used 2xAA batteries. It lasted for at least a decade, probably one and a half. Now I own the 2S, which is much lighter, but mostly the same size and shape, and it is at least as good as the old one. But it does use an internal Lithium battery. No problem charging (via USB-C) while using though, so I don't see a problem there. It is a bit on the small side for my largeish hands, but I still find it awesome to use and ergonomic. I primarily use it as a travel mouse, just because the MX Master fits in my right hand even better. But if I needed to go ambidextrous for whatever reason, I would go for the MX Anywhere without even thinking about it.

I understand not wanting a Magic Mouse because of the ludicrous charge port, but lots of rechargeable mice have a recharge port that plugs in the front and doesn't interfere with usage while charging. Aside from the left handed thing, I agree with the MX Master mouse. I've used a few over the years and they are the best mice I've had. The MX Anywhere 3S might fit the bill. It's Bluetooth out of the box, but can use a RF Logi Bolt adapter (not included like the MX Master).
