mine are 18.5x10( 10cm including thumb ) and I got an a9 plus, didn't like it at all. the middle hump made my fingers hurt . For context, I also come from a model D, but the last 3 years I've been using a haste 2 . Model D mostly palm and some relaxed claw, and the haste mostly relaxed claw/knuckle claw and sometimes fingertip. By far model D was the most comfy, but kinda clunky to aim with, while haste feels a lot more agile but not the most ergonomic. Now I'm getting a vxe r1 pro, to see if the hump being further back helps with the relaxed claw, probably next week. I'll let you know so you have a little more info!

Can you go to a local PC store and try any? I absolutely hate the g502 shape and design. For casual gaming I use the Glorious Model O and for competitive the Razer Viper Ultimate.

I don't know if they build mice with durability in mind anymore. I average a new mouse each year at this rate. I've owned the G502, Roccat Tyon, Glorious Model O, Logitech Superlight, Superlight 2 Dex, Deathadder V4 pro... One or two others I have forgot about. The only mice on that list that didn't cause me any issues were the G502 & Roccat Tyon. So every lightweight mouse I have owned has developed issues. Just seems to be how these increasingly absurd lightweight mice are. The Superlight decided to develop an annoying double click on one or more buttons, same with the Superlight 2 Dex. I'm permanently done with Logitech after that. The Deathadder V4 is my first ever Razer product, so wish me luck. EDIT: Small rant, but 60-80grams is perfectly fine for a mouse. Why the fuck do they use weight as a marketing thing, nobody needs a sub 50 gram mouse. Using half the materials just screams "I will break much quicker".

Hand Size: 21 x 9 cm (Long and relatively narrow) Main Games: Apex Legends and Aim Trainers (Tracking heavy) Grip Style: Relaxed Claw / Palm hybrid Hey everyone! I'm looking for a new mouse and could use some advice based on my previous experience: G502: Great old brick, but way too heavy for competitive tracking nowadays. Model O & Viper V2 Pro: They were okay, but too flat. I couldn't find a consistent grip. G Pro Superlight: Good mouse, but the "potato" shape made my grip inconsistent. Pulsar Xlite V3 (Large): Currently using it. The ergo shape gave me the stability I needed, but it feels a bit too big/clunky for reactive tracking. I love the stability of ergonomic shapes, but I need something slightly smaller or narrower to recover some agility for Apex. My current shortlist: Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro or V4 Pro Lamzu Thorn v2 Pulsar Xlite V3 (Medium) Wlmouse sword x Pulsar feinann Which one do you think would fit a 21x9 cm hand best without feeling like an oversized brick? Open to other suggestions too! Thanks!

Personally I feel like a lot of good top end mice feel similar, especially if we are talking ‘fps mice’ , so I base my decision on software. All of the mainstream ones suck. Some more than others. Razors software is one of the worst I have ever seen, making me never buy their products. Corsairs is similarly bad, while logitechs is somewhat acceptable. Personally, I’m a fan of Glorious’s software as it’s extremely lightweight and doesn’t need to be running in the background like some of the others. The model D and Os are nice mice as well. Would reccomend.

I have pretty gigantic hands (around 22x11.5), I've tried a lot of the biggest mice that are still relatively lightweight (ZA11, FK1+, Deathadder V3, Mountain Makalu 67, Glorious Model D), and none of them quite provide the seamless comfort I've looked for for my entire mouse journey. I'm now kind of in a mental battle where I'm doing playing a lot of valorant and doing aim training, but my aim is still lacking, and I'm wondering if I'm just not gifted at all, or if it has to do with the fact that no mouse is truly comfortable for me. Should I just try to DIY my own massive, light-ish mouse at this point? Or should I get one of those mice that's really big but also super heavy and hope it'll be okay for competitive fps? Or should I just git gud? All kinds of help and tips are appreciated. If a genie suddenly appeared in front of me and offered me anything right now, my wish would be a 60 gram, 140cm long G Pro Superlight, lmao. TLDR - I have big ass hands and need help

I've thought about that as well, the transition period just seems quite daunting, I feel like I've already wasted so much time trying so many mice and making small adjustments to my grip style, with no marked improvements in game comfort wise. On the other hand, fingertip probably is the one style that really does work for any handsize, plus I could then use wireless mice again (cause the biggest of the biggest mice are all zowie and wired). Maybe I'll go for it, if I don't get any more actionable suggestions under this post
