I am considering getting a new mouse because my current mouse I cannot do a quick 180 turn in fps games. Whenever I flick the mouse too fast (to do a 180 in FPS games) the mouse cannot handle how fast I moved it and slows/jumps backwards. This happens on any settings.
I have been researching this and it appears that it is most likely because I chose a cheap mouse.

What settings should I be looking at to see how fast I can flick the mouse? This is still confusing me because I do not get all the settings.

So the things I am looking for are....

  1. A mouse that I can move very quickly without any issues
  2. Side buttons

Please give my cheapest options as well as higher end options!
Thanks everyone!

EDIT: I bought G502 ----> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019OB663A

EDIT2: G502 is very good! I am happy with my purchase! Currently no mousepad and no issues!

Get Redragon M901 - MMO gaming mouse. I know, it's cheap and "chinese" but it works flawlessly for 3 years already. Mechanical buttons, ideal placement and quite ergonomic design. You can find it for about $30 or less if you are patient enough for some discount. I've got mine for 23€ which translates to $27 (you could find it for less but at that very moment every cheaper ones were sold out already and i wanted to get it "NOW!"). You can create 5 profiles with any color you want, you can remap every button on mouse and create macros using their software. If you are into, you can change weights inside, IIRC there are 7 weights that you can swap in or out.

+1 As your input is more thorough and useful than my simple one liner. ;)

Low DPI/sensitivity with mostly arm aiming and palm grip. Does this fit for Logitech G502?

The G502 looks a lot like the one I am using right now so I think I'll get that one!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019OB663A <--- Is this the one? It is cheaper on amazon.

Is it considered bad if I do not use a mouse pad? I think my table is fine. It is smooth and I make sure it is clean. I use the whole area. I do not want to be unable to leave a designated area. (Mousepad).
I'll take a bigger look into the guide. It seems good!

One thing I want to add is that the area I use for my mouse I don't think any mousepad would be the right shape.

You should use some sort of pad. Optical (LED) needs to be on a non-reflective surface in order to be accurate. Laser can be used on almost any surface (but you should still use some sort of pad).

In terms of surface area, I always find myself going off the top end of most pads so I bought an extra long one and turned it on it's side. You can buy huge ones these days.

I bought the G502! I'll see how it works and find a mousepad later. Thanks for helping! I'll tell you how I like it.

I love my Logitech G502 mouse. It works great, feels great, has 3 thumb buttons that are easy to reach and press.

I currently have the G502 Proteus Spectrum, and while I find RGB lighting a needless gimmick in general, I actually like it on my mouse. I have two profiles configured, a low DPI one for first-person games and a high DPI one for everything else, with a different color for each one. This way, I can tell at a glance which profile it's on.

I usually buy the cheap wireless ones for $10-15 since I usually buy a new every year. Logitech are pretty durable imo.

I've been happy with a Logitech G300 for several years; just bought a new one last week :)
Watch out for G300S, there should be no 's'! I haven't tried with 's', but if you do, don't blame me :p

For a few months I use this mouse -> http://modecom.com/en/volcano-mc-gmx4/. I switched from A4Tech X7 and my head-shot count increased significantly :)

I've had a Logitech G500 for about 8 years now, still works great. Seems like it's no longer manufactured, and the G502 is the newer version so I'd go with that.

G502 as cheaper option.
G900/G903 if money is no object.
