Currently I use a Logitech B110 mouse that came with my MacBook, but it's on it's way out now and I'm looking for a new one. I'm a graphic designer and I tend to use a mouse more than anything else when working in Illustrator etc. I do have a Magic Mouse but find that incredibly uncomfortable to use.
I'm on a budget, and I use OS X so that kinda limits my options a bit in regards to mice, due to driver etc. A lot of people recommend the Logitech Performance MX but that's a bit out of my price range. I've seen the Anywhere MX which but that's a mobile mouse and I want something that'll be comfortable over long usage. I've also heard good things about the M705, but many people claim the tracking is terrible because the sensor isn't centered.
I also read that a lot of designers opt to use gaming mice. I've looked into them and again they seem expensive, however, I've seen a few 'game branded' mice that fit within my budget.
These include the SteelSeries Diablo III Mouse, Razer Spectre Gaming Mouse and the SteelSeries Sims 4 Mouse. Yes these are game branded but that doesn't particularly bother me since I design from home, and from what I gather these will work with OS X.
All I pretty much want is a mouse that'll work well with OS X, in the sense that all of the buttons will be able to be mapped how I want them to be, uses a laser sensor for accuracy and is comfortable in my hand. I'm not too bothered on if it's wireless or wired, it'll mainly be used at home. I do occasionally game, too, RTS and FPS games.
So are any of the mice I've mentioned any good, and will do the job? Or are there any other alternatives? My budget is around £25.
Thanks.
