Made some reviews, not sure what you'd call my grip but I added some pics/vids as well as gameplay.

Hard disagree, I love the M5 for FPS personally. Aiming feels incredibly natural and I didn't need any adjustment period (other than adding a ton of grip tape).

As others mentioned, the Keychron M5 is the best option out there at the moment. Lightest vertical mouse with a proper gaming sensor. I haven't seen others mention this much but at least for me, I aim better in shooters on the M5 than on conventional mice. I think the wrist angle is really great for fine control, especially aiming left/right. At least for me, it feels more natural and precise than a conventional mouse (used Gpro x for years before this). And comfort is much better. I just wish it was even lighter. An actual lightweight version would be awesome. Also, someone needs to try making a vertical fingertip mouse, I think that concept has great potential

Keychrons have web config, nothing needs to be installed locally. M5 is pretty good.

Worse than the Logitech Lift it replaced (worse build quality, worse scroll wheels - no SmartScroll, not as comfortable) but 8K polling is 8K and it was relatively cheap. It's the only vertical mouse with decent sensor and polling.

For pure competitive gaming they are subpar. Especially for shooters. And it's not a technology problem really, there's vertical mice with modern specs. (Keychron M5 being the best option here) It's a physics problem, when you apply a force sideways on the mouse, it wants to move. This means every time you click to fire, your aim shifts. And while you can learn to compensate somewhat, you will never be perfect at doing so.

There are two reasons people buy gaming mice. 1) RGB, Lamborghini-Esqe styling, gimmick bullshit 2) Low weight, Ergonomic, high performance sensors The Keychron m5 already seems to get most things right, i really wish this mouse was more β€œviper pro” inspired but with a new vertical ergo shape rather than starting from the more gimmicky pro-click line.

Yeah I’ll never go back from vertical mice. I’m using the keychron one. I hope someone makes a vertical mouse with more buttons on the side that would be cool

I said cubital tunnel, not carpal tunnel, learn to read Cubital tunnel is your elbow, while carpal tunnel is your wrist. Totally different body part. And most people with mild cubital syndrome don't know why they have pain It took years for me to get bad enough I had to seek out medical attention, but lots of people have low grade problems. Keychron m5 and razor pro click v2 vertical edition are good ergonomic gaming mice

Those 2 are better for gaming but yeah they don't have a number of buttons most vertical are bad anyways so if you're willing to compromise the number of buttons then the m5 or the razer vertical edition is a better option
