I've had my G602 so long I have literally no memory of buying it. Definitely since before the 2017 discontinuing so it lasted 10 years atleast. A true hero, absolutely got my money's worth from it.

I felt a bit sad just throwing it away after so much time so I thought I'd make a post about it. Maybe someone wants it for parts, but otherwise atleast I got to share my little sadness for a good quality product that's served me very well.

It stopped staying turned on. Once batteries went in, it would turn on for a few seconds then stop working. Tried what fixes I could find online to no avail.

You can barely customize the buttons on these anymore so it was probably time.

A shame to learn there's really no modern counterpart. Ended up replacing it with a razer basilisk V3 because it was the most similar in shape I could find.

Had this bad-boy since like 2015 and its finally starting to misclick on occasion. Shame I didn't buy a backup and Anker stopped making them a while back since the DS-2368 was the best budget gaming mouse I have ever found for my hand size and grip. I have tried about 4 other models with similar profile and nothing quite touches it. Going to be a sad day when it finally gives up and dies. Similarly to what you mention, the Basilisk V3 is also the closest fit and it has decent linux support so that is my backup plan.
