Razer is a terrible company, which is tragic because they started out as an amazing hardware company. When they pivoted to being a spyware company I stopped buying their hardware. I've been happy with SteelSeries so far. Their Rival 500 is a great mouse if you want lots of buttons and configurability.

Most of Razer's hardware is garbage, always has been. The only exception is probably Blade and a narrow selection of their mice.
The Razer Blade laptop line should probably be avoided too, according to r/SuggestALaptop. Lots of quality control and battery issues. Some models appear to be designed around benchmarks, performing extremely well in short bursts but having much lower performance in longer sessions.
