Using a MacBook Pro 13" 2011 currently, so I occasionally take my machine places. The mouse I'm currently using is a Logitech B110 which came with my computer, and I pretty much use it as my daily driver. I also have a Magic Mouse which I've only used a handful of times because it's horrible to use, too flat.

As the title states I'm a designer, so I'm looking for a more substantial mouse. I have an Intuos, but I prefer using a mouse with Illustrator. I'm also looking at wireless ones, though I'm open to corded.

I've looked around and a lot of people recommend the Logitech MX Performance Mouse. However, I can't really justify spending so much on a mouse, plus the fact my hands are on the smaller side and I get the impression it'll be to large for me. Having said that, the majority of mice I see - wireless anyway - appear to be mobile, so on the other hand a larger mouse might be more suitable.

I've looked into the MX Anywhere Mouse, seems the same as the Performance Mouse, just smaller - mobile sized. I'm not sure how suitable that'd be though, so I've ordered a MS Mobile Mouse 3500 to try, since they're similar in size, and it was cheap.

I've also looked into the Logitech M705 - since I think it's more of a full sized mouse - but some reviews are negative towards the laser positioning.

I saw an Anker mouse on Amazon, but OS X isn't supported for mapping the extra side buttons, which was annoying.

So yeah, I could use some help on what to get. Any recommendations, or anything to add to the mice I've already mentioned?

Cheers.
