Yeah, all the Logitechs and Razors I've ever had are glued (or some other non-obvious method of entry). Gaming mice tend to be the worst about this.
I have gone with Logitech over Razor as I have found them to last significantly longer. My last Logitech lasted ~5 years compared ~2.5 I was getting out of my razor mice.
It's incredibly common for Logitech and Razor to put a rechargeable battery in all their wireless mice instead of a user serviceable battery as well. This is in part because the general population seems to prefer this strategy (and it's better than non-rechargable AA or AAA batteries ... but that doesn't mean it's good).
I've never owned any Razer gear, I've seen some of their stuff in person and I wasn't impressed. Always felt very toy grade to me. Never did like the Gigatron's Nutsack With A Neon Tribal Tramp Stamp GAMURRR aesthetic either, but that's not unique to Razer.
Yeah, I've been happy that's been toned down more recently in general with gaming gear ... everything doesn't look like some ridiculous "if hasbro designed a computer peripheral/component/case/etc."
A lot of gaming stuff was just ugly and lacking any good design elements for a loonnngggg time.
Yeah, like I have a nominally gaming-related Cooler Master keyboard, and...it's black plastic and there's some very understated jimping on the front edge. It doesn't have mechamandibles or plate armor or whatever.
