My dog ate my Razer Naga and I replaced with the Logitech. She has not eaten it. So based on this scientific conclusion, the Razer Naga tastes better than the Logitech. I don't see much difference between the two. I play WoW mainly.
u wont see much difference unless u buy the razer naga trinity which is 3 mouses in one. ive owned the Logitech mouse and a different naga before I bought the trinity version which is honestly amazing
How did you like like the logitech one? I'm tired of naga for 1 simple reason besides synapse being pure garbage, it breaks down in fucking no time, had 3 and all broke down quickly
I love how insightful you're being, without dragging out the video. Most times these reviews are done with little editing and a whole lot of droning on or redundancy. I'm actually not itching to increase the playback speed. Thank you!
The ring finger click on the G600 makes it an automatic winner imo, bind it to a modifier and suddenly you have 24 macros at your thumb. Wish more MMO mice would include something like it
i do that with my logitech g-13 except i have shit, alt, and ctrl all bound to it. can bind 3 action bars to it, and leave my g600 mouse in default mode so all the buttons are just extra mouse buttons instead of bindable keys. craaazy amount of shit i can have just like that.
You can use Autohotkey to turn several buttons into modifier keys, or have one button cycle through a bunch of modifiers. You could readily map tens of thousands of macros onto your mouse or keyboard. Autohotkey requires another background app to run, but you can save your files and run them on whatever hardware you end up purchasing in the future, so they can last a lifetime.
Razer's literal namesake; mice; are junk. Chinese brands that knock off the shapes of Razer are better made by every metric [aka lasting over 2 years with zero issues, better plastics, better switches]. Razer should be ashamed of themselves. Harder with mmo mice to find a chinese cheapo, but they are around.
@@anasevi9456 No doubt that Razers stuff is junk, but they use exactly the same Omron switches as other manufacturers. Except for some new ones that have some fancy in-house switch. That being said, my Naga started double-clicking way faster than my G600, so they must still somehow F it up.
@@yolobeer990 Their keyboards and headsets are really great from my experience and from what I've heard. They probably just have a different company manufacture the mice and it probably doesn't have good quality control.
@@wawatooki From what i have seen, and my knowledge of the internal components (the microswitches for example are Micron ones like everyone else uses) it looks to me like less of a QC problem, and more of an engineering/design issue. No idea how but they somehow manage kill the internals way quicker than other mice using the same stuff. Still, good to hear the headsets/Keyboards dont suffer from the same problems. Real shame the mice do because i for one like the way they look and feel. Its just that they got some odd problems that other brands dont.
@@yolobeer990 Had a G5 from 2005 to 2012, then tried Razer based on guildies recommendations, as my beloved G5 was out of production. I don't actually remember how many Razer mice I went through between 2012 and 2018, but they all left click failed (outright or double) within 18 months. Switched to the Corsair Scimitar 2 years ago, but the scroll wheel broke and I can't find my receipt. Considering the G600 as the replacement, although the Scimitar seems to be rated higher by several review sites.
Should be noted: Logitech allows you to bind to virtual keys while Razer software limits you to binding to physical keys. Logitech doesn't ever pester you to make an account on their website, Razer requires you to create an account and login to use their software and the only way to bypass login is to make changes to a file. The 3rd mouse button on the G600 can be used as a modifier key to switch profiles for the bound keys effectively doubling the amount of keys available. The G600 has RGB lighting while Naga is a single colour unless you buy the much more expensive Chroma version. Razer mice typically suffer from the same double clicking fault - if this hasn't happened to yours yet after more than 1 - 2 years of use, you're extremely lucky - it's a very common problem that many people have complained about. They STILL haven't fixed it and their more recent products have the same problem. I owned 3 Nagas (along with various other fault-prone Razer keyboards/headsets) before I lost faith in the build quality of Razer products. Do not buy Razer products.
Gone through 2 naga 2014 and 1 naga chrome myself, all broke down with different complaints. Besides synapse being garbage, fuck razer for sure, trying to decide to go g600 or scimitar pro route, both have a flaw to me (g600 buttons being angled like this and scimitar lacking the scrollwheel tilt)
i've had the razer deathadder for about 5 years and the scroll wheel started jumping recently, and im looking to upgrade to a mouse with many programmable buttons... the quality has lasted and not to mention my mouse took a beating as well
@Noah Waterman I used a Logitech MX518 for seven years, and I only retired it because the pads fell off and I couldn't find replacements. Switched to a Logitech G400, then a G502, and a G600 is in the mail and arriving today. I have had nothing but amazing experiences with Logitech mice, while Razer has the previously-mentioned 1-2 year lifespan. Not one of my Logitech mice has straight-up died on me, the case/pads just got worn out on me.
You have just been lucky. In general Razer creates low quality garbage aimed at teenagers. I've been through 4 nagas since 2014, luckily i had warranty and could just go and get a new one every time one broke. Done with razer products now though. They are low quality, that is common knowledge, and if your stuff lasts for a long time you are an outlier. I used to have a bunch of keyboards and headsets from razer as well, they all broke as well. From light use as well. Out of nowhere random buttons would just stop working. Since then i've been using a Rival 300, G502, Corsair Scimitar and a K95 keyboard and a pair of DT 770 pro 80 ohm headphones and they work just as well as on day one, they also do not have that gross cheap plastic feel to them either.
every naga I've ever had (4 up to this point) has failed in some annoying way. The first two the left mouse button stopped working or started double clicking randomly. The third one wore out the right mouse button waaaay to fast without abnormal use and it started to randomly left click without me pressing anything. The one I am currently using has left and right mouse buttons that once in a blue moon double click and have overall reduced responsiveness. The current mouse also has a scroll wheel that no longer works (jumps the page all over the place with even a bit of pressure). I'm not going to buy another razor product ever again. Their shit just breaks down too fast.
Been using my g600 for years with no issues, and I highly recommend it. I use the heck out of the side buttons for my dps spec, and if it ever breaks I'll be buying another one just like it. My Logitech g710+ keyboard, not so much.
Super helpful review! I've been using the Naga for years and despite being one of the outliers in terms of durability, recently some buttons have stopped working. I was considering the G600 but I was somewhat skeptical. This comparison review really helped cement the G600 as my mouse of choice! Thank you!
Hazel, I don't see your content often. But when I do, I always appreciate your style, your upbeat tone, the level of detail you go through, and your summaries in your description in case I just wanted to read. Thank you.
I've had both, and I'm definitely a fan of the G600. Having 24 hotkeys under my thumb while leaving my left hand totally free is amazing. The only problem is I'm now addicted to it. I've been wanting to try the Corsair MMO mouse, but I use the g-shift button so much that it would take a lot of re-training.
This is unbelievably informative. I need you to update this please, I’ve yet to see a video with such a well worded review. Maybe include the Corsair scimitar?
I've had at least 4 naga's both new and the old version and all of them starting acting wanky after 6 months or so, thanks for the review i will check the logitech one
Yea dude I’ve used nagas for years. This last one I had just stopped working in my USB ports and I can’t fix it. I’ve had other USB devices do this in the past and I had no problems fixing it.
Well the reason i'm here is basically because i was looking for a review for the logitech g600 from the pov of a MMO player. I've been playing wow like for 10 years atm and i wanted the opinion of someone that has experience in this game just in terms of the reliability. The reason im here is because my naga chroma started to fail before 1 year of usage. I also bought at the same time a razer blackwidow chroma that lasted exactly the same time and costed me an eye of my face...totally pitifull for the price point that this products have. Do not buy razer, or if you do, do it at your own risk. Thanks for the review.
A bit late to the party, I've had my g600 since 2013 and it still works really well. Can't overstate the importance of the g-shift (doubling the button functions) allowing you to have almost all, if not all of your abilities and macros on your mouse. I'm only now thinking about replacing mine as the g-shift still works but its a little less sensitive after 8 years of abuse. I have had some software issues with it having it getting stuck in certain functions, but I haven't noticed it occurring in a while making me think they may have patched out the issue. That said, the hardware is solid. I highly recommend the g600 for WoW.
I have both. Bought them over 4 years ago when their price was almost 80-90USD each, I think. The Naga ended up with my wife and she's been using it for almost 2 years now. The G600, has been replaced with another G600 this week since my left click broke. I'm pretty much done with Logitech. In the last 5 years, we broke 2 ROMER-G keyboards (keycaps keep breaking and jumping our) and 3 mouses: M705, G403 and G600 all with the same issue (left click stating double-clicking). Wrote to support and besides the fact they answer incredibly slow, they have no service in my area that is willing to repair them. For a sensor that costs roughly 0.7 USD (plus the charge for the mouse skates - since they need to be replaced once you open them) and could be charged way more for the know-how, they're just cheapskates and don't want to help you. I do not comment on the quality of the mouses; which for both mouses I have nothing to say, at least until you have the bad luck of having a click sensor breaking. I'm just disappointed I had to take actions towards repairing them myself when I was more than willing in having a representative repairing them even if at a higher cost.
DPI has nothing to do with mouse performance, its literally just "Dots Per Inch" So it's just how sensitive it is, and how fast the cursor moves on screen. 16,500 DPI is something i don't think anyone on the planet can really use :P
lower virtual sensitivity aka your game's and windows' and make the mouse's dpi higher maybe? I personally keep everything at 100% where the dpi is 1 to 1 translated into pixels moving
I played vanilla wow with the Razer Naga Hex V1 which eventually broke 6 years later (right mouse button became erratic when holding it down) I then got Razer Naga with the 12 buttons on the side, that broke 2 years later with exactly the same problem. Next I got a Razer Naga Trinity, had that 9 months and exactly the same happened (RMB became erratic) got it replaced and then that broke after only 6 months exactly the same problem. Tried various other mice bought the corsair but none of them felt right so I bought what will be my last ever Razer Naga, I got the wireless pro it arrived yesterday and I insured it for 3 years so if it keeps breaking it's costing them not me this time. Razer mice imo are garbage built to break I wish I had watched this video before I bought it, that Logitech looks brilliant.
I've been using Logitech G600 exclusively for browsing and productivity since 2012/2013 so I can comment on their longevity. After typically 2-4 years of usage, the mechanical mouse switches (left and right click, mouse wheel click + left/right, extra buttons below the mouse wheel) do fail. The main buttons ones double click whereas the mouse wheel buttons simply fail (first you have to press ridiculously hard to make them register, then they stop working completely). With soldering skills and tools, you can simply replace them. Especially the mouse wheel buttons are cheap to replace (Omron B3F-1000, about 0.25 USD). If you still have your Razer mice with broken right clicks, repairing them or sending them to someone who will repair them is probably better value than buying new. For the main buttons, there are switches that reportedly have better longevity than the stock Omron D2F 20M (used in the G600, Razer Naga likely has the same), which are prone to double clicking early in the supposed lifespan due to a myriad of reasons (mouse design running lower voltage than minimum specified for this switch and not incorporating Schmitt trigger circuits to filter out chatter noise, likely to drive down production prices by 1-2 dollars, being just two of them). While the button switches will fail after a few years on the Logitech G600, at least the sensor is very reliable. Also, the thumb buttons are metal (mechanical) actually, the inside of the buttons is silicone so it feels like a mixture of rubber-dome and mechanical. The side buttons have very high longevity, however in my experience with every disassembly you put a bit of strain on the flex cable that connects the side board to the main board, and eventually you might need to replace it (12pin 5cm 0.5mm, very cheap). So be very careful when opening the mouse that you don't put strain on the flex cable.
Just stumbled upon this, I've been using my g600 for my main rotation since I got it, thumb was super tired, but years and years of videogames has given me thumb stamina!
If you would like to purchase such a mouse you have to build up muscle memory. I did it by only using the first row (123) for a week, then the next week I added in the second. For the third week I felt comfortable enough to try the last two rows too. Since you often put your most important spells towards the front, this technique ensures you learn them fast. :)
I found that using the little rubber sticker things they give you really helped me get used to where the buttons are. I would just place the rubber things on every other button and they would help me remember where I should keep my thumb
i built the muscle memory by using all the thumb grid, it doesn't take long. only problem is once you get used to it, you can't go back to a regular mouse ever again.
Hazel, i love your videos, keep up the hard work! One small feature you missed with the Razor Naga.. its available left-handed and the Logitech is not. Logitech doesn't make any left-handed mice ;( i know i'm speaking for maybe
I've used 2 razer naga within the span of 2 years the right mouse click always broke, switched to the g600 I've had it for 2 years now no issues at all 😊
Same, but my razer naga 2012 is now dying after over 7 years of usage. a few months ago my click+drag was unclicking itself, and now since a few weeks ago, the left button click doesn't always work, and also it double clicks sometimes when it does work!
i use a razer naga, have been since i was 17 now 29, and have been thru 2 of them, still have the first one. The first one is the original version the non-mechanical smaller one. Changed to the newer one about 5yrs ago still works wonderfully. great video hazel keep it up!
Love the video. Helped me make my decision between the two. Especially with the sale on Amazon at the moment, it's like a win-win-win with emphasis on the last win.
Thank you Hazel! Been looking at these two in the perspective of a WoW player, and you definitely sold me! Just bought the Logitech g600. They should hire you to do reviews :p
Finally replacing my naga after having it for 10 years, taken that many years of brutal use before the right mouse button is starting to be on the blink, sometimes not registering or spam clicking. I always hear about Naga unreliability, but mine is so old it's still blue - will be hoping the next one can live up to that standard.
Nice video Hazel! $37 on AMZ right now for G600, I just bought one. I like it. The Naga is almost 3x more expensive, and prone to breaking. The Tek Syndicate gamer girl also said the Naga gets NASTY with sweat, gunk, etc and has to be cleaned every week or 2. The G600 has some kind of anti-sweat coating and doesn't get gross.
This is the most usefull and honest review that convince me in my pruchase. Theres a diference betwen using the mouse just a couple of days just for a review than using it for months or years. Thanks for the video.
G600 for sure. Naga was my first, but broke within a year. Got a G600 when they first came out back in 2014. And have only had to replace it once. The 3rd mouse click is essential for me. And I do have my rotation on my mouse. Gotten used to it.
Nice Review! Very similar to you, I bought the Razer Naga for wow in 2010. First the standard one then the molten core edition. Both failed in 8 months to a year. I switched to G600 in 2014, I am still using it in 2018. Although I think the software sometimes bugs out, or maybe its just the mouse where I found the clicking might not work properly or it double clicks. Sometimes after bugging out, in becomes ok the next day. Nice review. especially knowing someone who had a very similar experience as me :)
I like how quick and concise the points are in this review. I did not know the Naga is mechanical, very interesting this review is swaying me to the Naga since I no longer trust GHUB and Logitech. One point I would like to make is the third primary click key is NOT configurable. In GHUB, you can set it to be different keys, however when I actually tried to use those keys it didn't actually function. My example is in League of Legends I set my ward key to be a key on keyboard (I tried numbers and special symbols, being mindful that they wouldn't conflict). For clarity of my example, let's say the key for my ward is "M". In GHUB it displays that the button is bound to M. So I tried using the key in game. nothing happened. Then I tried opening discord and my browser to see if pressing the key displayed M. Nope, again nothing.
I'm glad you talked about what that third button on the right of the G600 was. Logitech mentioned it on the product page but they didn't describe it all that well. I do play a lot of shooters, but definitely not at a competitive level. If I do have a problem with the lower DPI then I can always swap to my G502. Honestly though I just clicked on this to see a thorough overview of the G600, the Razer was never a consideration. I've never had an issue with Logitech stuff, but I had a Corsair mouse fail on me within 6 months and nobody I know has had a good experience with Razer.
Great breakdown. I have had my G600 for over 5 years at this point and have never had a problem. I had two Naga's over a period of about two years, and that's why I decided to try the G600. I would buy another G600 in a heartbeat when this one eventually dies (nothing lasts forever).
Just picked up the G600. The Naga just recently crashed on me, but has been having issues for the past year or so. Looking forward to the Logitech. Thanks for the video!
The mechanical switches are pretty damn awesome on the naga. Ive had mine for well over a year and its still fine. That being said im tempted to get the g600 just to try it after hearing so many positive reviews. Those mechanical switches on the naga though... not sure if I can do without them.
I went from g600 to naga and I absolutely love the mechanical switches. G600 buttons are not tactile and u will probably find them cluncky. And this is coming from someone who hates Razer product. Like u I just wanted to try something different but naga is more agile and easier to do combos and feels more gratifying with those mechanical switches.
DO NOT buy the razer naga if you use a laptop. The magnet on the side of the mouse might affect your pc whenever your mouse touches it. (My lenovo legion 5 goes into sleep mode whenever i accidently bump the mouse into it)
Loved your review. I am getting back into WOW after 20 years or so. Man it has changed. For the best, anyways I'm still rocking out a regular mouse but my homeboy Mario from work is a huge gamer & he suggested the Logitech G 600. Thanks to your excellent & helpful review I am convince. Thank you for your help.
I bind my rotation buttons to my mouse. Doesn't bother me at all and I honestly find it easier than having them on the keyboard but that's just me lol.
I bind all my main rotation attacks to my mouse, and all my buffs and job specific/situational abilities to my keyboard. Makes things easy when I never have to reposition my hand to go back to normal rotations.
My 2nd Naga in 2 years just died. I'm so done with it. Trying to decide between the Logitech G600 and the Corsair Scimitar. Everyone keeps recommending the G600 so ordering that right now. Thanks so much for your video!
You missed the most important feature of the G600. If you download and install the software you can use multi-key macros.. This allows you to check to make sure your big dps monster spell is on CD before you cast a lesser spell. You can also put on a repeat option so you just hold down the key and not have to constantly click the key. So for example I want to use cobra shot.. first it will check if kill command is on CD. If it is on CD next it will check if Dire beast is on CD. if that is on CD then it will cast Cobra shot. This guarantees my big hitters are on CD before using the least preferred spell.These facts alone make the g600 a better purchase than the Naga.
Had my razer naga 2012 since 2012 and it's dying now, lol.. click + drag is unclicking itself randomly (that started a few months ago) and now the left mouse button isn't clicking sometimes which is aids when you're pvping and click for an aoe ability to go down and it doesn't go off.. lol. It sounds like we've been lucky with our nagas so far. I wonder how long that luck lasts lol.. I'm gonna buy the new razer naga trinity now, so I hope it doesn't let me down so soon!
I have a Naga Chroma and so far haven't had any issues with it about one year in. I'm a healer so when I'm healing raids I do it all with the side buttons. 4-12 are all various heals / cleanse / Wind Shear and works just dandy with mouseover macroes in those slots. The top two buttons behind the scroll wheel are for Ancestral Guidance and HTT, I flick either of those with my middle finger pretty easily. :)
This review is still very relevant in 2022. It also happened to be the video I watched that sold me on the G600. I’m not an mmo gamer but played LoL as my main game up until recently. I am not rough on my my keyboard or mouse. Around 2020 the logitech software was really bad for me. My colour profile never displayed properly, along with my dpi settings being completely different from what I set them as. I sent multiple feedback reports to logitech and heard nothing back. They made significant improvements to the software since. But it was incredibly frustrating to have to unplug and replug my mouse until it displayed the proper colour and dpi settings. As for the third mouse click or gshift. I never used it, personally it seemed way too clunky and poorly explained. So not only did I not understand it’s use, you also can’t remap it! I was able to a couple of times but it never functioned reliably (I tried having it my toggle mute and push to talk). The software for binding keys was also very unintuitive. Every time I had to go to the software it was frustrating. I have large hands and this mouse is extremely comfortable. Utilizing all the buttons only took me a couple weeks. My tip would be try your best to use the first six, and overtime add more keys.
Thank you!! Finally someone honors that third button on the G600! you cannot find that from any other brand. I really want to see a new version from them where the double click issues are fix, or some mechanical buttons and a little more lightning xD Awesome review!
I have owned both. They both worked great. Every Razer product I ever bought broke within 18 months. My G600 still works. The button click is SUPER sensitive on my G600. I was constantly unintentionally clicking it. I superglued some short strips of foam rubber into the gaps of the buttons and they work wonderfully now. The Naga was a great-looking mouse. If I hadn't thrown it away, it would now be a great-looking paper weight. I also owned a similar twelve-buttons-on-the-side mouse by Redragon. It worked great, the software was cool. It goes toe-to-toe with the G600. Mine broke down, but I'm to blame. I kept taking it apart and installing third party firmware (hey, I get bored). The Redragon had adjustable weights. The G600 has weights, but you have to damage the skates and open the mouse to remove them (which I just did, because it was pretty heavy).
Well it's about that time of the year.. My mouse is shot, and Cyber Monday is just 'round the bend. This was a super helpful video! Thanks for the insight!
You have a voice and talking speed that is easy to listen to. great info, I like Logitech also. All of a sudden it became uncontrollable, time to get a new one.
Great review, you nailed it! I have both l mice and experienced the exact same issues. After 1 year Razer warrantied the left click switch. Now 10 years+ later the right switch needs to be replaced. So I will do that for my wife as she uses it. While I waited for the RMA I purchased a G600 and it still works good 10 years+ later. And yes the Logitech software can be a pain in the ass. Props to Razer for the software but that's about it. Keep up the good work👍
Same here, but for a few weeks now, the detector started failing where the mouse arrow went crazy all over my screen. I've been reading and maybe has something to do with re-solder some inner parts. I believe at this point either I try that or replace it. I do had some bad experience before with a razer carcharias but I guess I had bad luck. If anyone knows how to probably fix my isse, I'll be all ears. Cheers from Peru!
yeah those ones were the shit. i had 2 of the older nagas(not the molten) they had the same size buttons as the molten and not only were they the perfect size but they had a little bit of spacing between them to avoid clicking 2 buttons at once. i bought the newer naga a couple years ago and hated it. not to mention i returned it 3 times in one month due to them being defective on top of being shitty. the side buttons were way to small and close together which resulted in way to many misclicks. ill never go back to razer after that experience. i plan on buying the g600 soon because like the nice lady said in the video they have the logitech buff of long life. not to mention they look sexy and comfy.
Thank you for this! I used to use a Logitech g502 for work for a while and have cycled through quite a few mice since then. My evolution: Logitech g502 > Steelseries Rival 500 > Corsair Scimitar Pro > Razer Naga. I think it's back to Logitech! I find the quality of Logitech's to be superior and they feel nicer in your hand. This is all for work, gaming just happens to benefit because I have a few spare mice laying around now. Great review!
I have the original Razer Naga from 2009 and it still works very well! It has had some contact issues with double clicks and such but those have gone in waves and it's never been a huge problem for me, since they've been so rare and only on the right click. I'm sure I can completely rid those too if I try to find a way and succeed in cleaning the contacts. I must say I am looking at the new Razer Naga Trinity now after SMASHING out my rotations with the side buttons for 11 years! Btw I think the side buttons are the best for all things! Rotations, cooldowns and whatever you can fit there.
I've had the Razer Naga for years. I think I bought it during Cata. It'd never broken on me. But that's not to say the newer models won't. I also put my main rotation on the thumb buttons so I can use abilities while moving.
I've been watching your WoW raid how to's and whatnot for a while. You do speak really fast but still easy to understand, always to the point which I appreciate. I too have used both mice but prefer the Naga. I can see why you would like the Logitech better but for me it mostly boils down to the mechanical buttons on the naga. Yes, it still does have issues and doesn't always last as long as it should. And it's still more expensive than the Logitech. But the Naga just feels better to me. I do have very wide hands for a woman but stubby short fingers so maybe that explains part of it. These days though there is a different twist: Naga is not available new, just the Trinity which is larger, and shaped overall more like the Logitech. With 3 interchangeable left side panels. For myself, I'll never use anything but the 12 button one however I can see others wanting to swap around. My current Naga has nagging troubles that aren't terrible, it's mostly due to it using Synapse 2, whereas the newer ones use the newer version of the Synapse software. This thing can sit perfectly still yet the pointer will start drifting down the screen. All in all it's been a nice few years with it (and I bought it used in the first place) but it's time for a new one. I appreciate your review even if it's 3 years old and thanks :) PS: It's your fault I'm now playing Black Desert Online and not WoW. Entirely your fault. Though I've been bored to tears with WoW for a while, I didnt know of a game to try out till I saw you talk about it. And it's absolutely positively completely nothing at all whatsoever like WoW or any other MMO I've ever played. Which of course fascinated me and drew me in lol. Been playing 6 months and loving the game. No, you're right, it is not pay to win. Pay for convenience, yes, but not to win.
Hello Hazel. I had 2 Naga (1 with Cable and one Wireless), I wore them down quite fast. None of them lasted for more then a year. Right now I have 2 G600 (Black and White) both are working fine. They are both at least 2-3 years old and I use them heavily. The only reason, why I have 2 G600 is because I wanted to be on the safe side, having a spare mouse. I have 2 G13 for the same reason.
I bought my first Razer Naga Epic Chroma in 2014, it worked until 2018 so I bought a second Epic Chroma. Here I am now in need of a third mouse, going to go with Logitech for reliability im tired of these $250 self destructing mice. Good review!
I got the Naga Molten a long time ago, and that one lasted for about 2.5 years before the left mouse button gave out. In 2014, I got a regular Naga (just the green color, no customization) and its been working fine for almost 3 years! I never use the two buttons in the middle either, but I do use the thumb keypad for literally all of my abilities except healing. For healing, I use Vuhdo and typical mouse keybinds and shift modifiers
Been using my G600 for almost a year and for whatever reason I didn't think it had side-to-side mouse wheel buttons, so thank you for that! In my experience, the hardest part was getting used to the significant weight of the mouse. It's much heavier then my previous 'non-gaming', so it caused fatigue in the wrist, but nothing a few weeks didn't fix.
Thanks for this video. I actually read some reviews online a while ago and got a Logitech G600 for around 30$ which is less than half a Razer Naga. The mouse is sooo good i'm going to buy another one in a few months just to have a spare, even though I'm not a pro gamer and I play MOBA games more often. For LOL players out there, top-class pro players don't use anything higher than a 3200 DPI, so don't even bother going for the 16000 and waste your money on a Razer mouse, which everyone on the entire internet is saying isn't reliable; Though I personaly believe it wouldn't hurt to have it on a G600.
Lollllllllll razer naga pro user here(on my 2nd razer naga) thinking about swapping to a G600 PRECISELY BECAUSE this is also my 2nd razer naga that's developed issues... i will add that ive had mouse calibration issues with the synapse software, esp with liftoff distance. the mouse hasnt completely failed but the scoll click has stopped working which makes resetting the calibration impossible. love how relevant this review still is even 5 years down the road.
I haven't used the Naga so I know nothing about it. My first mouse was the Logitech G502 and it was great but it just didn't have enough buttons. I upgraded to the G600 and it is absolutely amazing. I agree with everything Hazel says in her video; she is spot on in this review. If I ever wear out this mouse I will surely replace it with another G600. Also, I opted to leave the G-Shift button in its standard configuration as I absolutely love having the extra 12 button mappings giving me a total of 24 thumb functions. And yes, after only a few days I had them committed to memory. I mainly play The Division and this mouse has vastly improved my game play.
omg THANX!!!! finally a COMPETENT review that's not a reading from the company's advertisement. Lot of competence and direct to the point in short time. My g600 gave its final soul up. My point is productivity (and I find your review covering my field too even if not intended for it) What would you buy in 2020? THANKYOU
My dog ate my Razer Naga and I replaced with the Logitech. She has not eaten it. So based on this scientific conclusion, the Razer Naga tastes better than the Logitech.
I don't see much difference between the two. I play WoW mainly.
Was your dog RGB after that happened?
Detroitus248 thanks this really helped❤️ now im certain in my decision
u wont see much difference unless u buy the razer naga trinity which is 3 mouses in one. ive owned the Logitech mouse and a different naga before I bought the trinity version which is honestly amazing
How did you like like the logitech one? I'm tired of naga for 1 simple reason besides synapse being pure garbage, it breaks down in fucking no time, had 3 and all broke down quickly
Ouch
when I saw all those WoW posters in the back I just knew I could trust her word.
man i was googling reviews and stuff. When i saw the posters aswell, i felt that.
He's all simp'd up and ready to go!
You can never trust alliance! FOR THE HORDE!
@Christena Mortenson stfu
but she doesn't use the buttons behind the mouse! SHAMEFUL!
I love how insightful you're being, without dragging out the video. Most times these reviews are done with little editing and a whole lot of droning on or redundancy. I'm actually not itching to increase the playback speed. Thank you!
The ring finger click on the G600 makes it an automatic winner imo, bind it to a modifier and suddenly you have 24 macros at your thumb. Wish more MMO mice would include something like it
i do that with my logitech g-13 except i have shit, alt, and ctrl all bound to it. can bind 3 action bars to it, and leave my g600 mouse in default mode so all the buttons are just extra mouse buttons instead of bindable keys. craaazy amount of shit i can have just like that.
You can use Autohotkey to turn several buttons into modifier keys, or have one button cycle through a bunch of modifiers. You could readily map tens of thousands of macros onto your mouse or keyboard. Autohotkey requires another background app to run, but you can save your files and run them on whatever hardware you end up purchasing in the future, so they can last a lifetime.
@@chaosordeal294 this allows me to do that without compromising what my mouse and keyboard currently do
Yeah I just cancelled my order for a corsair scimitar because I learned about that g-shift, that's completely nuts that it doubles all the keys
@@atvkid0805just press the shift, alt or ctrl on your keyboard to get the same effect? 🤨
as soon as build quality came up i was like "oh boi here goes razer down the shitter"
Razer's literal namesake; mice; are junk. Chinese brands that knock off the shapes of Razer are better made by every metric [aka lasting over 2 years with zero issues, better plastics, better switches]. Razer should be ashamed of themselves. Harder with mmo mice to find a chinese cheapo, but they are around.
@@anasevi9456 No doubt that Razers stuff is junk, but they use exactly the same Omron switches as other manufacturers. Except for some new ones that have some fancy in-house switch.
That being said, my Naga started double-clicking way faster than my G600, so they must still somehow F it up.
@@yolobeer990 Their keyboards and headsets are really great from my experience and from what I've heard. They probably just have a different company manufacture the mice and it probably doesn't have good quality control.
@@wawatooki From what i have seen, and my knowledge of the internal components (the microswitches for example are Micron ones like everyone else uses) it looks to me like less of a QC problem, and more of an engineering/design issue. No idea how but they somehow manage kill the internals way quicker than other mice using the same stuff.
Still, good to hear the headsets/Keyboards dont suffer from the same problems. Real shame the mice do because i for one like the way they look and feel. Its just that they got some odd problems that other brands dont.
@@yolobeer990 Had a G5 from 2005 to 2012, then tried Razer based on guildies recommendations, as my beloved G5 was out of production. I don't actually remember how many Razer mice I went through between 2012 and 2018, but they all left click failed (outright or double) within 18 months. Switched to the Corsair Scimitar 2 years ago, but the scroll wheel broke and I can't find my receipt. Considering the G600 as the replacement, although the Scimitar seems to be rated higher by several review sites.
Should be noted:
Logitech allows you to bind to virtual keys while Razer software limits you to binding to physical keys.
Logitech doesn't ever pester you to make an account on their website, Razer requires you to create an account and login to use their software and the only way to bypass login is to make changes to a file.
The 3rd mouse button on the G600 can be used as a modifier key to switch profiles for the bound keys effectively doubling the amount of keys available.
The G600 has RGB lighting while Naga is a single colour unless you buy the much more expensive Chroma version.
Razer mice typically suffer from the same double clicking fault - if this hasn't happened to yours yet after more than 1 - 2 years of use, you're extremely lucky - it's a very common problem that many people have complained about. They STILL haven't fixed it and their more recent products have the same problem. I owned 3 Nagas (along with various other fault-prone Razer keyboards/headsets) before I lost faith in the build quality of Razer products.
Do not buy Razer products.
Nice info!
I've had pretty much the same experience. Fuck razer.
Gone through 2 naga 2014 and 1 naga chrome myself, all broke down with different complaints. Besides synapse being garbage, fuck razer for sure, trying to decide to go g600 or scimitar pro route, both have a flaw to me (g600 buttons being angled like this and scimitar lacking the scrollwheel tilt)
i've had the razer deathadder for about 5 years and the scroll wheel started jumping recently, and im looking to upgrade to a mouse with many programmable buttons... the quality has lasted and not to mention my mouse took a beating as well
@Noah Waterman I used a Logitech MX518 for seven years, and I only retired it because the pads fell off and I couldn't find replacements. Switched to a Logitech G400, then a G502, and a G600 is in the mail and arriving today. I have had nothing but amazing experiences with Logitech mice, while Razer has the previously-mentioned 1-2 year lifespan. Not one of my Logitech mice has straight-up died on me, the case/pads just got worn out on me.
I love my G600. Been serving me well for years.
"Or rather a couple of razer naga" That's everything you need to know about it
nagi
btw my original Razer Naga from 2009 still works and I play wow with it and smash out all the rotations with the side buttons
Naga 🚮
I'm currently using a g600 and I will never use anything else, it's amazing and makes gameplay in many games pretty easy
Gabriel Mahoney same I love the g600
ur using the wrong mouse my friend look up the razer naga trinity and tell me that ur mouse is better after u look at that mouse
@@soulsreaper7145 because razer naga doesnt really live long time, mine die before to celebrate its second anniversary :^(
so i just go with g600 :^)
@@soulsreaper7145 My scroll wheel broke 2 weeks after buying the naga trinity, Should of got the G600 instead.
I am using the g600 now, been thru 3 naga's since start of MoP. Hazel youre so right, Been thru 3 NAGA's.
Don't know what I'm doing wrong, my naga has lasted since 2013...
You have just been lucky. In general Razer creates low quality garbage aimed at teenagers. I've been through 4 nagas since 2014, luckily i had warranty and could just go and get a new one every time one broke. Done with razer products now though. They are low quality, that is common knowledge, and if your stuff lasts for a long time you are an outlier.
I used to have a bunch of keyboards and headsets from razer as well, they all broke as well. From light use as well. Out of nowhere random buttons would just stop working. Since then i've been using a Rival 300, G502, Corsair Scimitar and a K95 keyboard and a pair of DT 770 pro 80 ohm headphones and they work just as well as on day one, they also do not have that gross cheap plastic feel to them either.
every naga I've ever had (4 up to this point) has failed in some annoying way. The first two the left mouse button stopped working or started double clicking randomly. The third one wore out the right mouse button waaaay to fast without abnormal use and it started to randomly left click without me pressing anything. The one I am currently using has left and right mouse buttons that once in a blue moon double click and have overall reduced responsiveness. The current mouse also has a scroll wheel that no longer works (jumps the page all over the place with even a bit of pressure).
I'm not going to buy another razor product ever again. Their shit just breaks down too fast.
Yeah mine kept breaking too so I gave up and went to Logitech. The Naga is nice but its just not durable and I was not rough with them at all. :(
Been using my g600 for years with no issues, and I highly recommend it. I use the heck out of the side buttons for my dps spec, and if it ever breaks I'll be buying another one just like it. My Logitech g710+ keyboard, not so much.
Super helpful review! I've been using the Naga for years and despite being one of the outliers in terms of durability, recently some buttons have stopped working. I was considering the G600 but I was somewhat skeptical. This comparison review really helped cement the G600 as my mouse of choice! Thank you!
Hazel, I don't see your content often. But when I do, I always appreciate your style, your upbeat tone, the level of detail you go through, and your summaries in your description in case I just wanted to read. Thank you.
I've had both, and I'm definitely a fan of the G600. Having 24 hotkeys under my thumb while leaving my left hand totally free is amazing. The only problem is I'm now addicted to it. I've been wanting to try the Corsair MMO mouse, but I use the g-shift button so much that it would take a lot of re-training.
A review of a product with YEARS of use under your belt? Now that's the review I'm looking for.
This is unbelievably informative. I need you to update this please, I’ve yet to see a video with such a well worded review. Maybe include the Corsair scimitar?
I've had at least 4 naga's both new and the old version and all of them starting acting wanky after 6 months or so, thanks for the review i will check the logitech one
Yea dude I’ve used nagas for years. This last one I had just stopped working in my USB ports and I can’t fix it. I’ve had other USB devices do this in the past and I had no problems fixing it.
Well the reason i'm here is basically because i was looking for a review for the logitech g600 from the pov of a MMO player. I've been playing wow like for 10 years atm and i wanted the opinion of someone that has experience in this game just in terms of the reliability.
The reason im here is because my naga chroma started to fail before 1 year of usage. I also bought at the same time a razer blackwidow chroma that lasted exactly the same time and costed me an eye of my face...totally pitifull for the price point that this products have. Do not buy razer, or if you do, do it at your own risk.
Thanks for the review.
A bit late to the party, I've had my g600 since 2013 and it still works really well. Can't overstate the importance of the g-shift (doubling the button functions) allowing you to have almost all, if not all of your abilities and macros on your mouse. I'm only now thinking about replacing mine as the g-shift still works but its a little less sensitive after 8 years of abuse. I have had some software issues with it having it getting stuck in certain functions, but I haven't noticed it occurring in a while making me think they may have patched out the issue. That said, the hardware is solid. I highly recommend the g600 for WoW.
I have both. Bought them over 4 years ago when their price was almost 80-90USD each, I think. The Naga ended up with my wife and she's been using it for almost 2 years now. The G600, has been replaced with another G600 this week since my left click broke. I'm pretty much done with Logitech. In the last 5 years, we broke 2 ROMER-G keyboards (keycaps keep breaking and jumping our) and 3 mouses: M705, G403 and G600 all with the same issue (left click stating double-clicking). Wrote to support and besides the fact they answer incredibly slow, they have no service in my area that is willing to repair them. For a sensor that costs roughly 0.7 USD (plus the charge for the mouse skates - since they need to be replaced once you open them) and could be charged way more for the know-how, they're just cheapskates and don't want to help you.
I do not comment on the quality of the mouses; which for both mouses I have nothing to say, at least until you have the bad luck of having a click sensor breaking. I'm just disappointed I had to take actions towards repairing them myself when I was more than willing in having a representative repairing them even if at a higher cost.
DPI has nothing to do with mouse performance, its literally just "Dots Per Inch"
So it's just how sensitive it is, and how fast the cursor moves on screen. 16,500 DPI is something i don't think anyone on the planet can really use :P
lower virtual sensitivity aka your game's and windows' and make the mouse's dpi higher maybe? I personally keep everything at 100% where the dpi is 1 to 1 translated into pixels moving
filthy casual
Haha ikr 16k dpi is useles... most dont even go over 2k
i use it 24 7 lol
i use it for minecraft only lol
I played vanilla wow with the Razer Naga Hex V1 which eventually broke 6 years later (right mouse button became erratic when holding it down) I then got Razer Naga with the 12 buttons on the side, that broke 2 years later with exactly the same problem. Next I got a Razer Naga Trinity, had that 9 months and exactly the same happened (RMB became erratic) got it replaced and then that broke after only 6 months exactly the same problem. Tried various other mice bought the corsair but none of them felt right so I bought what will be my last ever Razer Naga, I got the wireless pro it arrived yesterday and I insured it for 3 years so if it keeps breaking it's costing them not me this time. Razer mice imo are garbage built to break I wish I had watched this video before I bought it, that Logitech looks brilliant.
I trust you Mac! 🔔
I've been using Logitech G600 exclusively for browsing and productivity since 2012/2013 so I can comment on their longevity. After typically 2-4 years of usage, the mechanical mouse switches (left and right click, mouse wheel click + left/right, extra buttons below the mouse wheel) do fail. The main buttons ones double click whereas the mouse wheel buttons simply fail (first you have to press ridiculously hard to make them register, then they stop working completely).
With soldering skills and tools, you can simply replace them. Especially the mouse wheel buttons are cheap to replace (Omron B3F-1000, about 0.25 USD).
If you still have your Razer mice with broken right clicks, repairing them or sending them to someone who will repair them is probably better value than buying new. For the main buttons, there are switches that reportedly have better longevity than the stock Omron D2F 20M (used in the G600, Razer Naga likely has the same), which are prone to double clicking early in the supposed lifespan due to a myriad of reasons (mouse design running lower voltage than minimum specified for this switch and not incorporating Schmitt trigger circuits to filter out chatter noise, likely to drive down production prices by 1-2 dollars, being just two of them).
While the button switches will fail after a few years on the Logitech G600, at least the sensor is very reliable. Also, the thumb buttons are metal (mechanical) actually, the inside of the buttons is silicone so it feels like a mixture of rubber-dome and mechanical.
The side buttons have very high longevity, however in my experience with every disassembly you put a bit of strain on the flex cable that connects the side board to the main board, and eventually you might need to replace it (12pin 5cm 0.5mm, very cheap). So be very careful when opening the mouse that you don't put strain on the flex cable.
Super analytical, objective, great info, and review. This helps me a ton!
This channel never ceases to impress me. Such high quality MMO content
Just stumbled upon this, I've been using my g600 for my main rotation since I got it, thumb was super tired, but years and years of videogames has given me thumb stamina!
If you would like to purchase such a mouse you have to build up muscle memory. I did it by only using the first row (123) for a week, then the next week I added in the second. For the third week I felt comfortable enough to try the last two rows too. Since you often put your most important spells towards the front, this technique ensures you learn them fast. :)
I found that using the little rubber sticker things they give you really helped me get used to where the buttons are. I would just place the rubber things on every other button and they would help me remember where I should keep my thumb
i built the muscle memory by using all the thumb grid, it doesn't take long. only problem is once you get used to it, you can't go back to a regular mouse ever again.
@@antongunther3977 those rubber stickers were great, wish they still sold/bundled them
Hazel, i love your videos, keep up the hard work! One small feature you missed with the Razor Naga.. its available left-handed and the Logitech is not. Logitech doesn't make any left-handed mice ;( i know i'm speaking for maybe

I've used 2 razer naga within the span of 2 years the right mouse click always broke, switched to the g600 I've had it for 2 years now no issues at all 😊
Bought a Razer Naga over 7 years ago and my brother is still using it to this day.
That’s called winning the lottery
Same, but my razer naga 2012 is now dying after over 7 years of usage. a few months ago my click+drag was unclicking itself, and now since a few weeks ago, the left button click doesn't always work, and also it double clicks sometimes when it does work!
i use a razer naga, have been since i was 17 now 29, and have been thru 2 of them, still have the first one. The first one is the original version the non-mechanical smaller one. Changed to the newer one about 5yrs ago still works wonderfully. great video hazel keep it up!
All 3 of the Razer mice I've owned have had some problem within the 3 year warranty.
I think it's time for a different brand. Thanks for the review!
you wont regret it. I've owned the G600 for 7 years. Never had a problem. If it were ever to break, I will be Purchasing another G600
Thank you Hazel. This is just what I was looking for.
Love the video. Helped me make my decision between the two. Especially with the sale on Amazon at the moment, it's like a win-win-win with emphasis on the last win.
I have a razor naga 2014 and it still works like a charm.
same here
I have the 2012 and its kinda failing now but it did last a lot, buying the 2014
I have a 2012 as well, this review doesn't apply to it accurately...
yeah i have the 2014 also, not really any problems after years
I have the 2014 too not a big problem but very rarely my sensor stops moving fir like half a sec but its 4 years now so idc
I went thru a naga in a month, I've been using a g600 ever since. The same one has been working without issue for the past 5 years.
This is a perfect review. Thank you, told me what I needed to know AND it used WoW as a baseline and example. Exactly what I needed.
Thank you Hazel! Been looking at these two in the perspective of a WoW player, and you definitely sold me! Just bought the Logitech g600. They should hire you to do reviews :p
Finally replacing my naga after having it for 10 years, taken that many years of brutal use before the right mouse button is starting to be on the blink, sometimes not registering or spam clicking.
I always hear about Naga unreliability, but mine is so old it's still blue - will be hoping the next one can live up to that standard.
Super useful, just got the Logitech g600 today, thanks!
Thanks for the best comparison I've ever seen on these 2,
Especially as a WoW player's perspective
Awesome as always Hazel ❤️🤘
I have a razer naga for probably a year or so. Nothing has broke. It's in good shape. Clicking and scrolling is just as good as the day it arrived
Nice video Hazel! $37 on AMZ right now for G600, I just bought one. I like it. The Naga is almost 3x more expensive, and prone to breaking. The Tek Syndicate gamer girl also said the Naga gets NASTY with sweat, gunk, etc and has to be cleaned every week or 2. The G600 has some kind of anti-sweat coating and doesn't get gross.
I've gone through 7-8 Nagas in the past 6 years or so. Going to give the G600 a shot because of this review. Thanks Hazel! :)
This is the most usefull and honest review that convince me in my pruchase. Theres a diference betwen using the mouse just a couple of days just for a review than using it for months or years. Thanks for the video.
Older video, but I appreciate it because you helped me with my mouse purchase! Thanks Hazel : )
G600 for sure. Naga was my first, but broke within a year. Got a G600 when they first came out back in 2014. And have only had to replace it once. The 3rd mouse click is essential for me. And I do have my rotation on my mouse. Gotten used to it.
Great info, thanks.. wasn't aware of the additional right mouse button on the G600, thanks for that, it's exactly what i'm looking for..
Nice Review! Very similar to you, I bought the Razer Naga for wow in 2010. First the standard one then the molten core edition. Both failed in 8 months to a year. I switched to G600 in 2014, I am still using it in 2018. Although I think the software sometimes bugs out, or maybe its just the mouse where I found the clicking might not work properly or it double clicks. Sometimes after bugging out, in becomes ok the next day. Nice review. especially knowing someone who had a very similar experience as me :)
I like how quick and concise the points are in this review. I did not know the Naga is mechanical, very interesting this review is swaying me to the Naga since I no longer trust GHUB and Logitech. One point I would like to make is the third primary click key is NOT configurable. In GHUB, you can set it to be different keys, however when I actually tried to use those keys it didn't actually function. My example is in League of Legends I set my ward key to be a key on keyboard (I tried numbers and special symbols, being mindful that they wouldn't conflict). For clarity of my example, let's say the key for my ward is "M". In GHUB it displays that the button is bound to M. So I tried using the key in game. nothing happened. Then I tried opening discord and my browser to see if pressing the key displayed M. Nope, again nothing.
I'm glad you talked about what that third button on the right of the G600 was. Logitech mentioned it on the product page but they didn't describe it all that well. I do play a lot of shooters, but definitely not at a competitive level. If I do have a problem with the lower DPI then I can always swap to my G502. Honestly though I just clicked on this to see a thorough overview of the G600, the Razer was never a consideration. I've never had an issue with Logitech stuff, but I had a Corsair mouse fail on me within 6 months and nobody I know has had a good experience with Razer.
I've liked the razer gear I've had. But I have LOVED every second with my G600. Note that there's a 25g weight in the mouse you can remove!
Great breakdown. I have had my G600 for over 5 years at this point and have never had a problem. I had two Naga's over a period of about two years, and that's why I decided to try the G600. I would buy another G600 in a heartbeat when this one eventually dies (nothing lasts forever).
I checked on Amazon, I got my G600 May 24, 2013. It is still going strong.
1st time viewing one of your vids. Nicely done dear. Full of info, and I didn't feel a need to speed it up like I most often do. Thanks
Just picked up the G600. The Naga just recently crashed on me, but has been having issues for the past year or so. Looking forward to the Logitech. Thanks for the video!
The mechanical switches are pretty damn awesome on the naga. Ive had mine for well over a year and its still fine. That being said im tempted to get the g600 just to try it after hearing so many positive reviews. Those mechanical switches on the naga though... not sure if I can do without them.
I went from g600 to naga and I absolutely love the mechanical switches. G600 buttons are not tactile and u will probably find them cluncky. And this is coming from someone who hates Razer product. Like u I just wanted to try something different but naga is more agile and easier to do combos and feels more gratifying with those mechanical switches.
DO NOT buy the razer naga if you use a laptop. The magnet on the side of the mouse might affect your pc whenever your mouse touches it. (My lenovo legion 5 goes into sleep mode whenever i accidently bump the mouse into it)
Love my Logitech G600! Great video!
Loved your review. I am getting back into WOW after 20 years or so. Man it has changed. For the best, anyways I'm still rocking out a regular mouse but my homeboy Mario from work is a huge gamer & he suggested the Logitech G 600. Thanks to your excellent & helpful review I am convince. Thank you for your help.
i used my g600 for for the first two months and after watching your video im sold on it lol thanks for the tips!
I bind my rotation buttons to my mouse. Doesn't bother me at all and I honestly find it easier than having them on the keyboard but that's just me lol.
I bind all my main rotation attacks to my mouse, and all my buffs and job specific/situational abilities to my keyboard. Makes things easy when I never have to reposition my hand to go back to normal rotations.
I have used my Razer Naga 2014 mice for 4 years now, and its never had a problem. Guess you are mean to your mice
It's 2022 and I still use my Naga 2009! :D No problems whatsoever!
My 2nd Naga in 2 years just died. I'm so done with it. Trying to decide between the Logitech G600 and the Corsair Scimitar. Everyone keeps recommending the G600 so ordering that right now. Thanks so much for your video!
Using my razer naga epic still,after 9 years later. Insane mouse. Its absolutely perfect.
You missed the most important feature of the G600. If you download and install the software you can use multi-key macros.. This allows you to check to make sure your big dps monster spell is on CD before you cast a lesser spell. You can also put on a repeat option so you just hold down the key and not have to constantly click the key. So for example I want to use cobra shot.. first it will check if kill command is on CD. If it is on CD next it will check if Dire beast is on CD. if that is on CD then it will cast Cobra shot. This guarantees my big hitters are on CD before using the least preferred spell.These facts alone make the g600 a better purchase than the Naga.
David Bustos imagine being so braindead you do that shit for hunter xd
Ive had my naga for 4-5 years and its still good
Had my razer naga 2012 since 2012 and it's dying now, lol.. click + drag is unclicking itself randomly (that started a few months ago) and now the left mouse button isn't clicking sometimes which is aids when you're pvping and click for an aoe ability to go down and it doesn't go off.. lol. It sounds like we've been lucky with our nagas so far. I wonder how long that luck lasts lol.. I'm gonna buy the new razer naga trinity now, so I hope it doesn't let me down so soon!
I’ve had a razer naga for probably 6 years now. Never broke and I’ve put it through a lot.
I've been smashing my rotation out on the thumb buttons of my G600 for 4 years now and it is still going strong.
my g600 of 3yrs just died :'( after watching this I know to order another
I have a Naga Chroma and so far haven't had any issues with it about one year in. I'm a healer so when I'm healing raids I do it all with the side buttons. 4-12 are all various heals / cleanse / Wind Shear and works just dandy with mouseover macroes in those slots. The top two buttons behind the scroll wheel are for Ancestral Guidance and HTT, I flick either of those with my middle finger pretty easily. :)
Rey Arocha is the Naga already default to the 1-12 action keys in WoW after plugging?
This review is still very relevant in 2022. It also happened to be the video I watched that sold me on the G600. I’m not an mmo gamer but played LoL as my main game up until recently. I am not rough on my my keyboard or mouse. Around 2020 the logitech software was really bad for me. My colour profile never displayed properly, along with my dpi settings being completely different from what I set them as. I sent multiple feedback reports to logitech and heard nothing back. They made significant improvements to the software since. But it was incredibly frustrating to have to unplug and replug my mouse until it displayed the proper colour and dpi settings.
As for the third mouse click or gshift. I never used it, personally it seemed way too clunky and poorly explained. So not only did I not understand it’s use, you also can’t remap it! I was able to a couple of times but it never functioned reliably (I tried having it my toggle mute and push to talk). The software for binding keys was also very unintuitive. Every time I had to go to the software it was frustrating.
I have large hands and this mouse is extremely comfortable. Utilizing all the buttons only took me a couple weeks. My tip would be try your best to use the first six, and overtime add more keys.
Thank you!! Finally someone honors that third button on the G600! you cannot find that from any other brand. I really want to see a new version from them where the double click issues are fix, or some mechanical buttons and a little more lightning xD Awesome review!
I have owned both. They both worked great. Every Razer product I ever bought broke within 18 months. My G600 still works.
The button click is SUPER sensitive on my G600. I was constantly unintentionally clicking it. I superglued some short strips of foam rubber into the gaps of the buttons and they work wonderfully now.
The Naga was a great-looking mouse. If I hadn't thrown it away, it would now be a great-looking paper weight.
I also owned a similar twelve-buttons-on-the-side mouse by Redragon. It worked great, the software was cool. It goes toe-to-toe with the G600. Mine broke down, but I'm to blame. I kept taking it apart and installing third party firmware (hey, I get bored).
The Redragon had adjustable weights. The G600 has weights, but you have to damage the skates and open the mouse to remove them (which I just did, because it was pretty heavy).
So...at the end... what w'd u suggest...
Well it's about that time of the year.. My mouse is shot, and Cyber Monday is just 'round the bend. This was a super helpful video! Thanks for the insight!
You have a voice and talking speed that is easy to listen to. great info, I like Logitech also. All of a sudden it became uncontrollable, time to get a new one.
My naga lasted maybe 4 months. That's why I watched this video. I'm seriously thinking about the logitech this time. Thanks for the video
Great review, you nailed it! I have both l mice and experienced the exact same issues. After 1 year Razer warrantied the left click switch. Now 10 years+ later the right switch needs to be replaced. So I will do that for my wife as she uses it.
While I waited for the RMA I purchased a G600 and it still works good 10 years+ later. And yes the Logitech software can be a pain in the ass. Props to Razer for the software but that's about it.
Keep up the good work👍
I use a razer naga molten edition had it for 4 years and still works perfectly I prefer it over the newer nagas
Yea had the same one lasted me 4 years too. The old naga buttons are far better than the newer clunky ones.
also prefer the placing of the 2 extra mouse buttons to the left of the left click instead of behind the mouse wheel
The molten models were released in 2010. 2009 and 2010 were the only good years of Nagas xD. They hold up.
Same here, but for a few weeks now, the detector started failing where the mouse arrow went crazy all over my screen. I've been reading and maybe has something to do with re-solder some inner parts. I believe at this point either I try that or replace it. I do had some bad experience before with a razer carcharias but I guess I had bad luck. If anyone knows how to probably fix my isse, I'll be all ears. Cheers from Peru!
yeah those ones were the shit. i had 2 of the older nagas(not the molten) they had the same size buttons as the molten and not only were they the perfect size but they had a little bit of spacing between them to avoid clicking 2 buttons at once. i bought the newer naga a couple years ago and hated it. not to mention i returned it 3 times in one month due to them being defective on top of being shitty. the side buttons were way to small and close together which resulted in way to many misclicks. ill never go back to razer after that experience. i plan on buying the g600 soon because like the nice lady said in the video they have the logitech buff of long life. not to mention they look sexy and comfy.
Thank you for this! I used to use a Logitech g502 for work for a while and have cycled through quite a few mice since then. My evolution: Logitech g502 > Steelseries Rival 500 > Corsair Scimitar Pro > Razer Naga.
I think it's back to Logitech! I find the quality of Logitech's to be superior and they feel nicer in your hand.
This is all for work, gaming just happens to benefit because I have a few spare mice laying around now.
Great review!
I have the original Razer Naga from 2009 and it still works very well! It has had some contact issues with double clicks and such but those have gone in waves and it's never been a huge problem for me, since they've been so rare and only on the right click. I'm sure I can completely rid those too if I try to find a way and succeed in cleaning the contacts. I must say I am looking at the new Razer Naga Trinity now after SMASHING out my rotations with the side buttons for 11 years! Btw I think the side buttons are the best for all things! Rotations, cooldowns and whatever you can fit there.
Hey just the video I was looking for, thanks.
FINALLY! Someone with hair as long as mine. Thanks for the vid Haze. My Naga took a nose dive so I was looking at the Logitech vs. Razer
Just great, HN, thanks for this. Cleared up a lot
I've had the Razer Naga for years. I think I bought it during Cata. It'd never broken on me. But that's not to say the newer models won't.
I also put my main rotation on the thumb buttons so I can use abilities while moving.
Quality review and production, thanks.
I've been watching your WoW raid how to's and whatnot for a while. You do speak really fast but still easy to understand, always to the point which I appreciate. I too have used both mice but prefer the Naga. I can see why you would like the Logitech better but for me it mostly boils down to the mechanical buttons on the naga. Yes, it still does have issues and doesn't always last as long as it should. And it's still more expensive than the Logitech. But the Naga just feels better to me. I do have very wide hands for a woman but stubby short fingers so maybe that explains part of it.
These days though there is a different twist: Naga is not available new, just the Trinity which is larger, and shaped overall more like the Logitech. With 3 interchangeable left side panels. For myself, I'll never use anything but the 12 button one however I can see others wanting to swap around. My current Naga has nagging troubles that aren't terrible, it's mostly due to it using Synapse 2, whereas the newer ones use the newer version of the Synapse software. This thing can sit perfectly still yet the pointer will start drifting down the screen. All in all it's been a nice few years with it (and I bought it used in the first place) but it's time for a new one. I appreciate your review even if it's 3 years old and thanks :)
PS: It's your fault I'm now playing Black Desert Online and not WoW. Entirely your fault. Though I've been bored to tears with WoW for a while, I didnt know of a game to try out till I saw you talk about it. And it's absolutely positively completely nothing at all whatsoever like WoW or any other MMO I've ever played. Which of course fascinated me and drew me in lol. Been playing 6 months and loving the game. No, you're right, it is not pay to win. Pay for convenience, yes, but not to win.
Hello Hazel.
I had 2 Naga (1 with Cable and one Wireless), I wore them down quite fast. None of them lasted for more then a year.
Right now I have 2 G600 (Black and White) both are working fine. They are both at least 2-3 years old and I use them heavily. The only reason, why I have 2 G600 is because I wanted to be on the safe side, having a spare mouse. I have 2 G13 for the same reason.
I bought my first Razer Naga Epic Chroma in 2014, it worked until 2018 so I bought a second Epic Chroma. Here I am now in need of a third mouse, going to go with Logitech for reliability im tired of these $250 self destructing mice. Good review!
Love my G600s. Glad I bought all of them when they went EOL.
They are back :)
@@BosnaVolimte Confirmed. My Naga Trinity double clicked on me after 3 months and I just bought a brand new G600 last month.
Very Good Review! I used this to make my decision. Ty hun.
Awesome review. I m worried how much people say the Naga breaks, it is crazy.
I got the Naga Molten a long time ago, and that one lasted for about 2.5 years before the left mouse button gave out. In 2014, I got a regular Naga (just the green color, no customization) and its been working fine for almost 3 years!
I never use the two buttons in the middle either, but I do use the thumb keypad for literally all of my abilities except healing. For healing, I use Vuhdo and typical mouse keybinds and shift modifiers
Been using my G600 for almost a year and for whatever reason I didn't think it had side-to-side mouse wheel buttons, so thank you for that! In my experience, the hardest part was getting used to the significant weight of the mouse. It's much heavier then my previous 'non-gaming', so it caused fatigue in the wrist, but nothing a few weeks didn't fix.
My naga just died after 4 years so ive been lucky but i used your link for the logitech thanks!
great video
Thanks for this video. I actually read some reviews online a while ago and got a Logitech G600 for around 30$ which is less than half a Razer Naga. The mouse is sooo good i'm going to buy another one in a few months just to have a spare, even though I'm not a pro gamer and I play MOBA games more often. For LOL players out there, top-class pro players don't use anything higher than a 3200 DPI, so don't even bother going for the 16000 and waste your money on a Razer mouse, which everyone on the entire internet is saying isn't reliable; Though I personaly believe it wouldn't hurt to have it on a G600.
Lollllllllll razer naga pro user here(on my 2nd razer naga) thinking about swapping to a G600 PRECISELY BECAUSE this is also my 2nd razer naga that's developed issues...
i will add that ive had mouse calibration issues with the synapse software, esp with liftoff distance. the mouse hasnt completely failed but the scoll click has stopped working which makes resetting the calibration impossible.
love how relevant this review still is even 5 years down the road.
I haven't used the Naga so I know nothing about it. My first mouse was the Logitech G502 and it was great but it just didn't have enough buttons. I upgraded to the G600 and it is absolutely amazing. I agree with everything Hazel says in her video; she is spot on in this review. If I ever wear out this mouse I will surely replace it with another G600.
Also, I opted to leave the G-Shift button in its standard configuration as I absolutely love having the extra 12 button mappings giving me a total of 24 thumb functions. And yes, after only a few days I had them committed to memory. I mainly play The Division and this mouse has vastly improved my game play.
thank yoouuu so much,i've been looking at these exact 2 mice and did not know and still dont know 100% wich one to get
omg THANX!!!! finally a COMPETENT review that's not a reading from the company's advertisement. Lot of competence and direct to the point in short time. My g600 gave its final soul up. My point is productivity (and I find your review covering my field too even if not intended for it) What would you buy in 2020? THANKYOU
Had my g600 for 6 years. love it :)
