I love my Razer Deathadder. I have the left-handed edition (just a mirror of the right-handed original) and it is very comfortable. I know this is a niche market but it does broaden the Deathadder series appeal.
That QPAD mouse looks quite similar to an MS mouse I used to have - minus all the extra buttons.
I've had a Razer Diamondback 3G for a few years now and I still maintain it's the best mouse I've ever had. It's a good size, is not overbudened with buttons and weights I'm never going to use and was well priced. When it's dead the DeathAdder looks like it might be an ideal replacement.
Switched to the QPAD 5K after using intellimouse v3 for years. I got mine for free from a contact at QPAD after a sponsored trip. It was nice but too wide and the dpi settings never seemed to be 'just right' although it was responsive and it WAS a great mouse, just not the best fit for me, I still have it basically brand new if anyone wants? :P
I moved to the Deathadder a few months back after using one at a LAN cafe and I have been converted - this mouse just works and is responsive at all dpi settings. It relies on the phrase 'Keep It Simple Stupid' in my mind and it does this to perfection whilst hitting pretty much the sweet point in terms of price, highly recommend.
I think all the peripherals choices are made based on personal issues. PERSONALLY I like mouses that have finger rest on the right side, like that Mionix. But that is my personal taste...
I have an Ozone Somg and I am loving it. I'm looking to buy another one to have at work. Unfortunately, Ozone discontinued it but there are still other brands that make those same rats

Microsoft worked with Razer, and Habu (and some keyboard) was the result.

QPAD 5K, gets my vote.
Been using one for ~ 4 months and its perfect for people who like a ' wide ' mouse.
Tried the Razers , but found them too skinny for my liking.
Yeah I got one a couple of days ago for £18 to replace my logitech rx1000 (very good generic £10 mouse, but not really cut out for gaming)
Have to say I am utterly loving the mx518.

And the Habu was amazingly crap. I had two of these that stopped working in a matter of weeks. Ended up replacing it with a Logitech.
I have an MX510 on my old comp and an MX518 for my most recent. It's a great family of mice. Plus, the colors just happened to match the general color schemes of my PCs. ;)

ReplyPersonally I don't really even care how "good" the Razers are, I just don't like the shape.
Having handled both, if you've got big hands I'd reccomend the Lachesis (ambidextrous) over it anyway. Personal preference.

I have a sidewinder for home (a great mouse) as I claw when gaming - at work a rat as it forces my fingers in the right place.
every mouse has its up and downside so very much a try before buy
having said that thumb buttons are essential - unlike macro buttons on keyboards
The shape is superb for my hand.

Totally. My little finger loves my Naos 5000! It's amazing to use and the software is great. Well worth the high price tag.

All down to personal 'feel' i guess.
P.S. Would love a spare one ;)
