Mac Mouse Recommendations

Chris Grantham — Thu, 05 Aug 2021 15:24:02 GMT

Hey Gang, So i recently updated one of my computers to Big Sur to test things out before updating our workstations. An unfortunate side effect is that the capabilities of a popular mouse in our office (Razer Naga Epic) are no longer supported. One of the great aspects of the mouse was that it had 12 button programmable keyboard at your thumb for all sorts of things. It looks like Razer is abandoning support for Macs going forward. Does anyone have a recommendation for a mac mouse that has similar capabilities? Let me know!
Thanks!

I do not have Big Sur installed at home (not supported for my 2013 iMAC), but logitechs software is up to date up to Catalina at the very least and they also offer those type of mice as far as I know.

Logitech G600, BUT it is getting a bit dated and there is no news on it being updated to the newer hardware found in all of the newer mice offerings.

Ive looked at that one... it def seems like a cheaper mouse that the Naga Epic. So bummed they aren't supporting OS anymore!

I have been messing with steer mouse and Karabiner Elements. Still trying to get them to work, but to date they just seem super fussy. Thanks for the suggestion though!
