I've had problems with Logitech. They still make good peripherals, but it's more luck of the draw for me recently, so QC may be getting cut.

QC??? Hadn't you heard that the end user is the new totally free Beta Tester? But don't worry, they'll solve the resulting support issues with AI.

I hate how true this is...

People are trained to buy any old trash that is marketed to them without any critical thinking, it's why everything is turning out broken like this.

I keep hearing this and wonder if I should buy bulk mice before they come preinstalled with malware or something because they last decades so voting with your wallet doesn't really work.

Maybe. Or just switch to whatever the good mouse brand is at the time. I'm rocking a Microsoft Intellimouse Pro (wired) on my desktop, which I really like. On my work laptop, I have a Logitech MX Master 3 at work (had lots of issues with the thumb button in the past), and a Logitech Triathlon (no issues).

My wife had a couple of the g305s die on her within a year, so I switched her to a Razer Deathaddr Mini, which has been good for over a year now.

I'm still mourning the loss of the g5 moulds. Why do people feel the need to improve on perfection.
