XM2w 4k

I have both - the v1 and v2 in my inventory. But I agree EGG has qc issues. None of my copies is the first I received. Creaking, no full battery capacity, mouse wheel issues. But after my warranty claims everything is good. So actually I‘m intrigued about the maybe coming EL1.

I can agree that there is a difference. I switched from Endgame Gear xm2w 4k v1 to v2. And i felt there was slight difference. Worse I thought. But I adjusted so fast and I‘m playing cheaterlike. So all good ;)

I have also tested about 70+ mice. My favourite (CS Source times with mouseaccel ON) was mit Logitech G Pro Wired with the Pixart PMW-3366 sensor. It was like cheating. Deagle + Scout flickheadshots only. Nowadays, things have changed incl. me being older, CS:S out of date, no mouseaccel anymore, I love my Endgame Gear xm2w 4k v1 (maybe v2 as well, still to test). So, my GOAT: Logitech G Pro with PMW-3366 (attention, with the sensor replacement with the new HERO sensor, the mouse destroyed the whole muscle memory and maybe more. Worst. Pixart best!) And for today: the Endgame Gear XM2W 4K

I‘d be absolutely in for the Endgame Gear 😇 And I had several G305 - and one lighter rechargeable Mchose clone but with quality issues. So I don’t know about the G305 superlight. And to be honest I‘m not a fan of Logitechs sensor. Pixart is my one and only ;)

The answer is yes but only for specific mice. The DAv3 Pro and Viper V2 Pro had really bad build quality in my opinion so I would avoid them. The only mice I can recommend at your budget are the DAv3 Hyperspeed and the Wired DAv3. There aren't really that many non Chinese mice at this price point... recently really good deals at XM2W 4K v1 mice have been spotted on stores like Microcenter so check them out.

XM2W is the way.

I have 20x10cm hands and use claw grip. For me, the best mouse is the xm1r shape, the back hump gives a nice support to your hand, you can do an agressive claw and also a relaxed claw. And the low button height makes it very comfortable. I had the xm2w 4k v1, but the clicks were too tight for me, too stiff, maybe you can get used to it, I couldn't.

I was going to make a similar recommendation so I’ll just add to this instead. You can try XM2w 4K (the first version not the v2) it’s on sale for 60-70 on Amazon. If you look on EloShapes these mice are all very similar. My hand size is 20x11 cm for reference

Xm2 / X2 / FK2-DW (i’d wait for fk1 here though w ur handsize, so maybe save up?) Those are my fav mice for claw, i particularly like the FK. I also enjoyed some clones, R5 ultra felt nice (very small, ULX clone) but it was too light for me at 38g. The superlight / superlight shape (atk A9 ultra or pro max) is quite versatile, could do you solid. Aj159 Apex (slightly bigger OP1, it’s decent, but normal op1 felt more premium) All mice i’ve mentioned have solid clones & the xm2w should be within your budget.
