I need a wireless mouse for some light gaming while I'm campus. Cheaper is better. It can be whatever kind of wireless, my laptop has bluetooth built in. It just needs to have a dedicated back button for web browsing. Anyone have any suggestions?
 
A wireless Bluetooth gaming mouse would likely be very hard to find. Wireless has a slight lag to it, which makes it not so good for gaming most of the time. There also aren't very many Bluetooth mice on the market. So realistically, you can get a wireless mouse not specifically meant for gaming, or a wired mouse meant for gaming. The wireless would likely use a small USB dongle. The Logitech Revolution VX seems like it meets most of your requirements, including programmable buttons.
 
Yeah after a little reading around bluetooth is off the table and that's fine. I'm not looking for a $100+ super-duper gaming mouse but just something with a small dongle, decent dpi, and preferrably replaceable batteries. I was thinking about this but the reviews on the sensor being in an awkward location have me worried. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Logitech-Wi...&campid=5335869999&PID=1225267#ht_2624wt_1344
Anyone have any thoughts on this?

That's a very nice mouse. Good price too for refurbished.

I use the Logitech Logitech M505 on my gaming laptop, and it works great also. It's got a nice feel to it. And the battery lasts forever and a day. I got rechargable AA for it.

Care to elaborate? I still find most Logitech mice better than others due to customer service (inside the US), hardware, build quality and software.

edit; aside from their current G600 MMO monstrosity.
 
Aside from the current line (G700 and newer) I've tried a few more recent Logitec mice and still find them to be all-around better than other "big name brand" mice for one or multiple reasons. I've been heavily using a Gx9 for the past two years with no problems as well (even spinning the hell out of the scroll wheel w/o unlocking it).

I don't have access to their newest mice and haven't had the ability to take a look at Corsair's mice or some of the more obscure mouse companies, but I still recommend Logitech for the most part.

i'm dumping them, and it's not only their mice line that turned into shit. it's a shame actually, they used to make great products in the past.
