Admittedly, this is one of the most expensive mice available on the market right now. However, for your money, you get one of the best gaming mice available. Feature-packed, sleek, and comfortable, there's a reason it's frequently seen at esports events worldwide. It helps that you can usually find it on sale for $10-30 cheaper than the retail price, a great deal for a mouse of this caliber.

Cherry M68: was $99 now $92 @ Amazon

Cherry M68: was $99 now $92 @ Amazon
One of the most straightforward mice you can get, the Cherry M68 is practically identical to the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 in performance in most cases, despite the 1,000Hz polling rate cap. For most people, this is more than enough to win rounds. If you avoid the 'Pro' 8K version, the regular M68 provides a fantastic deal for anyone looking for a competitive mouse under $100.

An unexpecting smash-hit of a mouse, this is one of the cheapest means of getting a polling rate above 1,000Hz. Keep your eye out, as it has been spotted on sale for around the $30 mark— a mind-blowing deal. You might even spot the 1k version for as low as $20!

SteelSeries Aerox 5: was $139 now $125 @ Amazon

SteelSeries Aerox 5: was $139 now $125 @ Amazon
I might be weird for this, but the unique design of the Aerox 5 doesn't really faze me. In fact, the build is fantastic — and you don't have to worry about damaging the internals thanks to water resistance. Beyond the design, the performance is phenomenal. This workhorse mouse will serve you well no matter what you throw at it. At this price, it's a fantastic deal.

    Some of this I could agree with, but the latest offerings from Logitech have been lousy at best. I bought a G903 a bit ago, it never made it 2 weeks before both right and left clicks failed. I returned it and was given another one, it lasted less than a month and the same thing happened.

    Rather than return yet another one, I voided the warranty and popped the top off. Both the right and left click buttons were some of the cheapest garbage I have ever seen in a :premium: mouse. I opened the switches and inside I found that the little brass spring had failed on both buttons. I also noticed that the switches were manufactured in China and were badly designed. (plenty of room for dust and debris to get inside)

    I went to the dollar store and bought a $10 mouse intent on stealing the switches ou of it,, imagine my surprise when I opened it up to steal the switches only to discover they were premium Japanese Omron switches. I desoldered and installed those switches, and it worked great for awhile, but it developed connectivity issues and died. At that point I gave up on Logitech for everything EXCEPT their G13. I will never part with my G13.

    As for Steel Series, that is a joke. I bought one of their mice, didn't last a week and it died. I also was gifted a keyboard, but ti was HORRIBLE, right out of the box the keys would bind and stick down. I have looked at other steel Series equipment and I can tell you this, you are NOT getting what you pay for. Their equipment is substandard and lacklustre. I would NEVER buy anything Steel Series. They pack their drivers with adware and other junk that installs without your permission.

    When I saw you recommend SteelSeries, the whole rest of the recommendation was dubious at best.

    One further note, I see no mention of Roccat anywhere, and I can tell you this, their present offerings are a load more reliable than both Logitech and Steel Series. Their support is a little anal retentive, but their hardware is top notch and uses quality components.
