WDYM? Engineers spent endless hours making sure it does double click right after warranty ends! That took some effort! 😅

They do actually have that innovative tech. Or Close enough, at least. I used to have the same issue. I had razer, Logitech and zowie mice. All had the same issue after 2-3 years tops. Until I stumbled upon the razer naga pro in 2020 which had some optical switches. 6 years later and it's still going strong.

I did have to swap the micro switches on my Logitech G502 after a few years as well. They aren't immune to this (quite the opposite). Swapping them on any mouse isn't exactly hard, but does require some tools (soldering iron, mostly) and a frankly annoying amount of time.

All of them could just use the micro switches that actually fit that application and none of that would be necessary.

I completely misread what you were saying ... I thought you were advocating making you hold down a button for more than a year before releasing and pressing a second time to double click.

I assumed that was hyperbole but it still seemed impractical.

My MX 2 lasted about 3 years. My MX 3S is going on for 4 years but I am starting to notice the scroll wheel sometimes misses a roll. Is there a way to get a BIFL mouse without the gamer aesthetic?

I'm guessing it's still interrupt transfers instead of isochronous but yes waking up just before it needs to.
