It doesn't feel anything alike in hand in my opinion. Susanto-X is currently my main mouse alongside Superlight 2, Ten Air and OP1 8k/Ying. I got the 2c this morning and will be returning it, it's way too small for me to use with claw grip.

op1 8k is going to last a lot longer than atk though

you probably can get something like op1 8k v1 for around $70, which would last for a really long time and has top of the line specs or you could try getting something like R1 Pro / pro max, not sure how much it costs though

i have used the xm1r, op1, and op1 8k v1, all of them are very good build quality wise, looks like you are in bad luck imo.

What exactly did you do to find a 22ms difference? I did 50 trials each on an OP1 8k v2 and an X2 Superstrike and found a 3ms improvement.

Using [https://rafael182493.github.io/reaction/](https://rafael182493.github.io/reaction/), I'm getting a median of 126 on OP1 8k v2 and 123 on Pro X2 Superstrike. However, I only did 50 trials per mouse (interleaved), so it is unclear if the Superstrike is really faster here and a difference of 3 ms is certainly not huge for most people. It does feel rly nice tho

Op18k v2 or v1 is a small size mouse with hotswap feature meaning you can swap the main switches easily without soldering you just need to be careful opening the mouse.

Nah maybe you need to adjust the way you grip the op1 or it could be the mouse is too small

Op1 is a good mouse there are multiple versions of that mouse the normal op1, Op1 RGB and the 8k version. If you have small hands yeah sure I recommend that mouse but if you have medium to large hands get the XM2 8k. It would be nice if you can share your hand size in centimeter and your grip style

You do know you can swap it with a silent switch because the Op1 has a hotswap feature

You just need to be extremely careful so you won't mess the soldering part, on the superstrike you don't need to mod all you have to do is adjust the sound, actuation, rt, on ghub. And you're pretty much limited to it it's not like a hotswap mice with mech switch that you can use variety of mechanical switches.

Endgame gear op1 default switches are loud but it has a hotswap feature so you don't need to solder stuff open the mouse use the provided screw driver and put a silent switch inside the hotswap PCB.

You're welcome I personally haven't tried incott, zaopin and the Asus mouse only the op1 so I can't give you my opinion to them. V2 is newer and kept the same hotswap feature as the v1

I have every mouse pretty much mentioned in here for ftip. I have big chunky hands like yours, I keep coming back to the Op18k the shape is optimal and the mouse is 10/10 fairly good for holding towards the back as that's where it flairs out. Also the clicks can be lightened by using their mod kit.
