I adore mine. It feels like a slightly larger OP18K and just has a fantastic overall feel to it. For the price and performance it's absurdly solid. I'm huge into budget mice and love Lethal.gg as a company and it's easily one of the top ones out there in shape and performance.

EGG XM2w 4k or XM2 8k are s-tier. They feel so fricking good to play with.

Viper v3 pro would probably be fine, but it's definitely big. You might be more comfortable on a lamzu Maya, egg Xm2 or op1, or hitscan hyper light. People rave about zowie as well, I just don't know them well enough to recommend a specific model. People also love Scyrox, except some people complain that they do not implement the sensor very well. I would investigate more. It might be a great choice for you. One key thing to know is that every single mouse these days uses the same 2-3 sensors and 2-3 processors. Those sensors and processors have a baseline capability, so really performance on mice these days is just a non-issue. Some companies create firmware that works better than others (hence why people complain that the same sensor feels worse or better on one mouse than another), but ultimately the most important feature is *shape*: How it feels in your hand, how it feels to move on the surface of your mousepad. Also, consistent reports and reviews of good build quality is important. Research is the best way to find what you like! I personally ordered multiple and kept the one I liked the most. Just make sure where you're buying has good return policy if you do that.

It sounds like they want an ergonomic shape based on their current mouse and the ones you're looking at. Sounds like you're okay with wired mice. I'd throw the Deathadder V3 wired in the mix as an affordable ergo though might not be the best for smaller hands. If they are open to Wireless options, I have a [Retro Xlite V2](https://www.pulsar.gg/products/xlite-v2-retro-brown?variant=44194578137342) that I would be okay parting ways with in your budget range if you want to DM me. If they don't care about ergonomic mouse shapes then the OP1 8k or XM2 8k are both phenomenal wired options at a great price though a little higher than the price of the mice you listed. Also good for smaller hands.

you seem to be a few years late. there are now the xm2 8k, and the op1 8k, and op1 8k v2(which i would consider as the best mouse) the thing about a cable is that many people are bothered by them, and on ultra light weight mice(<30g) you can tell that the cable is there. and for low sens players, it also bothers them as you can feel the cable move during fast flicks. source. i used to use really low sens(55cm/360) and i removed the battery from my vxe r1 se as it was shit. and the cable is super flexible, and it didnt bother me, but during fast flicks, it would. now that i use a moderate sens(32-37cm/360) it doesnt bother me at all. and why use a wired mouse, when wireless mice can now weigh 35g and have decent battery life with minimal input latency

For sure, XM2 is definitely the way to go if you have larger hands. I see people talk way more about the OP1 8k than the XM2 8k, I don't know if most people have small hands or people just like really small mice, but I find the XM2 far more comfortable.

Honestly, for wired mice nowadays, the absolute best you can get are the OP1 8k and the XM2 8k. The Razer Deathadder v3 is pretty good too I've heard, but it depends on your preferred grip and your hand size though.

It's only problem on razer's deathadder v3 pro and viper v2 pro and they probably fixed it in new versions. If you still have gwarannty you can do rma. If you want new mouse i reccomend you endgame gear xm2 8k or op1 8k if wired. If wireless there's many options, if you liked viper v2 pro i reccomend you viper v3 pro.

i have op1 8k and xm2 8k, 19 x 10 hands too. i feel like you can have a wider range of grips on the op1 8k due to the straight sides, i really don't find it too small to the point where i get hand cramps.

Not the same shape.. also, the sides of the xm2 don't go over the buttons, meaning I will endlessly press it when I didn't intend to. You can even see it on eloshapes: https://www.eloshapes.com/mouse/compare?p=endgame-gear-op1-vs.-endgame-gear-xm2-8k

i have same hand size same grip, i tried superlight and it was too awkward feeling couldnt get a good grip, im currently on an ec2-c atm but i recently tried about 20 different mice and so far the xm2 8k - zowie fk2- zowie fk1+- and maya X were my favourite. mainable end game mouse would be Maya X and xm2 8k forsure. \*edit i forgot to mention the deathadder v3 wired that i own is extremely comfortable shape and suits this grip exceptionally well. my copy personally just had a mouse click issue but if it didnt i would probably be using it over the ec2-c atm

I don’t recommend or agree with those referring to the op1 8k because the mouse is a lot smaller in hands than the g203/g305. Xm2 8k is a better fit for you since it is a bit more wide and longer than the g305.

People that recommend the Viper Mini either havent tried it themselves or dont know better, that cable is stiff, thick so its not even compatible with mouse bungees I wouldn't subject a friend to that. The minimum I'd pay for a wired mouse with an actually good cable is around 2k for the Wired Razer and Pulsar options (Razer Deathadder V3 and Pulsar X2/X2H/Xlite Wired) and max at 3k-4k for the 8k options from Endgame Gear with good wired cables as well (OP1 8k and XM2 8k) at 1k the only reasonable option is VXE R1, whatever version you can get (avoid pro max, switches suck)

no idea why youre locked in to those 2 brands. endgame gear makes the op1 8k and the xm2 8k, both are symmetrical and the wired versions come in under $90. aside from initial setup you can get rid of the software too because it saves to the mouse. also you wont notice the wire, its that good. as others have mentioned the deathadder also comes in a wired version under $80, but it isnt symmetrical

Hand size: 21x11 My main mouse is the xm2 8k. Since finding a light palm grip ergo mouse is impossible for me, I decided to go for a claw grip. It hasn't been as big a detriment to my aim as I thought it would be. I can grab the hips of the mouse and really press it into my wrist though so that's probably helping me

Op1 8K is great but also kinda small for me but Xm2 8K would be in consideration if I was looking to buy a new mouse at the moment. I prefer wired simply because I don't have to worry about the battery and charging. It's always ready to go when I need it. Cable doesn't bother me because these higher end wired mice have great lightweight cables as well but still some people hate it and for them a bungee is always an option.

As a fellow 'mouse noob', I am quite happy with the Endgame Gear XM2 8k. It has a top of the line sensor, build quality is very high so should last you a very long time, the clicking buttons are mechanical and super smooth, and comes with two configurable side buttons for your thumb. I think in the US it's probably roughly 75usd, for a very high end mouse from a technical perspective, so good price/quality ratio. Good shape for average to slightly above average hands. Only con (not for me but to some) is that this specific one isn't wireless.

I have 19x10 hands and i use a relaxed claw as well. I tried the xm2 8k and returned it after a couple of days because it was a horrible shape for me. It is so wide that my hand hurt after a few mins of playing. Maybe i was holding it wrong or i am just not used to larger mice because i mained a smaller and narrower mouse (Razer cobra).

>Anyways, because of this I've ended up with more, got a much better understanding of what I do properly actually want instead of just randomly searching for mice and am actually, probably, for real this time, nearing my end game. At this point, what is it that is holding any of these mice back from being endgame? Is there a target spec you are looking for? I imagine you have the shape preference already locked in. I went down a similar rabbit hole after getting my first "enthusiast" mouse (the original XM1) back in 2020. Almost ironically, after trying a number of shapes, specs, technologies, etc., I am for the foreseeable future on the XM2 8K. I know specs are still improving, but I feel like for the past year or maybe two, we have been in diminishing returns territory.

I have an XM2 8k, if you are already accustomed to wired it’s a better buy than wireless. There’s no polling latency, lighter and don’t have to charge it, and most importantly it’s CHEAPER. Also the ACPro Neon feels very premium, I have it in XSOFT.

r/mousereview might be able to help but there's a lot of enthusiasts there that might recommend niche mice that may or may not be a good fit. You could also check out https://www.rtings.com/mouse for some more mainstream focused recommendations and reviews. Come up with a budget and decide whether you want wired/wireless. Some personal recommendations, though I hate charging so I'm biased towards wires. Wired * Razer Cobra [cheap, small] * Razer Deathadder V3 wired [large ergonomic] * Endgame Gear OP1 8k [small, top of the line performance] * Endgame Gear XM2 8k [larger than the op1, top of the line performance, potential scroll wheel issues?] Wireless * Razer Viper V2 pro [cheaper than the V3, neutral shape] * Razer Viper V3 pro [expensive, neutral shape] * Razer Deathadder V3 pro [expensive, large ergonomic] If you get something cheaper, you could take the extra and grab a decent mousepad if he doesn't have one already, ~15-35ish dollar range for solid options. Arguably just as important as the mouse. I'm a fan of the ESPTIGER mousepads on amazon that sometimes go on sale for 15 bucks, lethal.gg has a lot of good options too.

if you want the "best" mouse and you mention fps i assume you looking for the best aim experience with a solid qc in that case i would just get a dav3 wired for palm or xmr1-2 wired for claw,not into finger tip, second hand you can pick them even below your budget up, dont say i warned u about cheap chinese mice when you get one and you back in this sub in a week, because those dont hold up interms of qc, coating or have flawless sensor implementation

They do make a ton of mice like that. You need to look for mice that are specifically made for claw grip. Pulsar X2 or X2H is like that. Endgame gear OP1 or XM2 are also like that. Sora v1 , or Vaxee X Sora are also like that. I'm sure there plenty more that I can't think of from the top of my head. The hour glass gives your fingers better leverage to really handle the mouse but yea, if your hands are too big or small for the mouse, it can cause issues. I honestly would say the Logitech GPX has a very very subtle hour glass, that it will probably feel pretty flat on the sides for you, it's one of the safest first mice for a reason. Asus harpe ace if I remember correctly is also pretty flat on the sides, it's shaped like a Logitech GPX but just longer.
