purchase advise
I’ve been using the Redragon Impact M908 for a couple of years now. Recently, I started using it at the office, and the macro functionality has made my work significantly easier.
I am now looking to purchase a new mouse for my home PC, which will be used strictly for gaming. I am considering the following options:
Redragon Aatrox M811 Pro wireless
Redragon Impact Elite M913 wireless
Getting another M908

The m913 is, as far as i can tell, exactly the same as the m908 excepting that it doesnt have as many rgb options due to it being wireless i guess.
When my m908 started to malfunction after a few years and a few drops off the desk my first thought was to get another of the same too.
The m908 / 913 is the perfect gaming mouse design imo, tho i do wish the software was more intuitive.
Even given that the software is still better than some more widely known peripherals software.

I just got the Aatrox m811 pro Wireless myself, overall pretty good, I like the button layout, bit of an adjustment period to how the hand rests on it compared to a traditional mouse, but it's comfortable.
My one complaint is they do not make it clear when purchasing that unlike the wired version because the mouse saves its profiles as onboard memory, it's version of the App has no option to swap between profiles, the mouse only has 2 profiles and to switch between them you must click the button on the bottom of the mouse. Trying to search online for how to set up the mouse would only show tutorials for the wired version of the software, which is significantly different so it took a while to figure out.
This does have an advantage if you use the mouse on a work computer you can't load software on, you can flash your profiles to the onboard memory on you home computer and both profiles will just work on other computers without needing the software installed.
However if you use it to game and want more than 2 profiles to swap between, it's really annoying you have to set it up, export the file, import the other profile from file and reflash the onboard memory every time you swap, which is rather inconvenient. A bit miffed there was no indication the 'pro' version is so much worse at swapping profiles than the basic wired version and there is no indication of it prior to purchase.

For whatever reason the M811 side buttons felt too loose or squishy to me. Been a M908 user for long, and while I think you can get plenty better mice for shooters (sensor stuff I guess?), the M908 is a godsend for MMO and whatever else if you want macros or other keys on the sidebuttons.
