MX Revolution or G7?!?

[Michigan PC]

I need a wireless mouse to use exclusively with a laptop. I want a mouse for the following tasks:

1. Easy and fast forum / website navigation
2. Low requirement games such as TF2

I went to best buy to check out the MX and really liked the feel and all the buttons. It is the kind of mouse that looks like it could really make computing easier. It also has a much larger battery life than the G7.

On the other hand, the G7 is much better for gaming (I have read.) Of course it also has less buttons.

Opinions? It will be used on a corepad XXXL btw.

i love my g7. battery life isn't too much of an issue, as it comes with 2 batteries. while you are using 1, the other is charging. it feels great, and i have not had a single issue with it. not as many buttons, but the ones you have are pretty much all you need. you can customize it how you want. pretty sure you can with the mx as well, but don't know for sure. also, too many buttons are easier to mis-click when you don't necessarily want to.

just my 2 cents

does the computer have to be on to charge the other battery?

yes, because it charges in the base of the transmitter, which uses usb.
