which one of these is better?

G7 is basically the wireless version of the G5

Benefits for the G7 is obviously that it is cordless. The benefit of the G5 is that where the battery compartment is on the G7 there is a cartridge that lets you change the actual wheight of the mouse for a better feel. I personally have the G5 and its a great mouse, im sure the G7 is also very nice. Basically comes down to whether you want wired or wireless for your setup. the G5 is also a bit cheaper as well. They are IMO the best gaming mouses out right now.
 
the G7 also lets have a couple (3i believe correct me plz) preset sensitivities so i u changed from a helicopter pilot to asniper u can changejust by a button on the mouse
 
You can do that with the G5 as well. I'm pretty sure that the only difference is that the G7 is wireless.
 
the g7 all the way! although it depends on you. if you want wireless then the g7 if you just arnt the person who trusts wireless then g5 and on the g5 you can adjust the weight. as for the copperhead its not worth to buy it. its too expensive and the g5 and the g7 offer pretty much same w/o the big price tag and plus the g7 is wireless.

i would get the g7 wireless but i was looking at reviews on newegg and i was seeing that the battery life was not that long so i was thinking of getting the g5.
 
what i would do is just buy some rechargeable batteries that is what i have done with my wireless mouse and they have payed for themself a few times over already. if you really dont like the rechargeable then i would go with the g5 but i strongly suggest getting rechargeable batteries

dont believe some of the reviews. i remember reading one person that said the charger was slo and that the battery would run out b4 the other one is fully charged which is not true. it only takes 2hrs for the battery to charge on boost mode and 10 on normal mode. and a fully charged battery can last for about 2days and only takes 2secs to switch. i have not had any problems with the battery yet.

Ok ill probably get the G7 then. but does the boost mode charge the battery all the way up or not.
 
wont the boost mode like wear out the battery faster cause i know with race car batteries theres rapid chargers that charge the battery in like 2 hours where as the regular one took 5 hours or more. and does the battery last as long as when you charge it rapid charge as regullar charge.

im not sure about this. i dont think it does. anyways each time you charge a lithion battery b4 it fully is empty you loose like a few hours of the batteries life. but a batteries life is like thousand and thousands of hours so its not a big problem.

yes
 
you ever look at the MX-1000 thats a good mouse, not as good as the G7 though, but the battery lasts forever (about a week to a week and a half with normal use). I have one and i like it.

ya i looked at it and it looked like a really good mouse but i think ill probably get the G7 cause i only game for like 4 hours straight max so the battery life should not be a problem. but if it is ill just hook up another mouse tell the other battery gets done charging.
