I have RAT 8+ it's nice, it seems there's a lot of hype for MMO 7+ and I wanted to know why? I think what available is great already but maybe because the legacy product MMO7?

MASSIVE hands like that need the RAT 8+ .. 1000s of mice in one, you'll have a better more comfortable fit. Does your pinkie and ring finger drag on the mat, the RAT 8+ has an L-shaped pinkie rest make things much easier.

Hey bro, I am normally on here trying to recommend the RAT 8+ to people with large or wide hands. Not my job per se, but I like to help out the community. I think your hands might be not suited to any of the typical 'one size fits all' mice that are available on the market. What you might consider is checking out the RAT 8+ ADV or 8+ because of the feature of a swappable / replaceable palm rest. It basically can be slid all the way back to provide more comfortable palm positioning for your hand. IF that's not sufficient, at least you could have the option of modifying that piece with the help of a 3d printing hobbyist and making it even longer / higher.. then re attaching the palm rest to the mouse - might be perfect. Alternatively, BAT 6+ would be easy to customize as well. https://preview.redd.it/6in4nlrrcybf1.png?width=700&format=png&auto=webp&s=decd9e28ff95b5241d0edd50ca96c6fb96986d2e

Perfect for you, large hands, no more fingers dragging on mouse pad: RAT 8+ Adjustable and swappable parts, you'll never go back to one shape / one size fits nobody mice.

RAT 8+ will adjust to your hand, swappable palm / pinkie rests too. You're above average, you deserve an above average device. Mice are for boys, RATs are for men... DM if you have any questions.

If you like comfort and pinkie / thumb rests, RAT 6+ , 8+ something like that would be a big improvement for big handed people like u (adjustable and swappable parts = big improvement) , hit me up in DMs, maybe I can find u a coupon or something to welcome you to the Mad Catz FAM!

RAT 8+ is adjustable (thumb and palm rest) and has swappable parts (pinkie rests, palm rests) ... very likely to get a better feel and fit than any of the 'one size fits all' mice that were not made for above average individuals like yourself :) hit me up if you need more help. GLHF!

u need something that actually fits your hand. Don't believe the idea that 'one size fits all' check out the RAT 8+ can adjust and has swappable parts. Everything else in life is adjustable, but not main stream mice, ever wonder why? Profit - it's super cheap to make those one size fits all mice, trust me on that. But I'm biased, I work for the co. But doing this as a PSA.

We make special mice just for you called the MMO 7+ (coming out soon) in the meantime you can think about the RAT 8+

You can adjust the weight to five different levels. You can adjust the thumb in two dimensions (on two axes) N, S, E, W. You can adjust the palm rest in 4 positions, and also swap out the palm rest with two other versions one higher (taller) and one a different non-slip material. Here's the best part imo: swappable pinkie rests. The "L" shaped pinkie rest is so essential to me. I love it. Solves two problems, first, no more dragging the pinkie / ring finger on the pad and also the movement of the mouse backwards becomes so much easier with that pinkie rest attached. If you add up and multiply all the permutations of possible positions, it's thousands of mice in one. Granular adjustments are essential! It's why our RAT 8+ and ADV are best sellers, they are selling out like crazy. We can't keep them in stock!

You are exactly why we make the RAT 8+ adjustable with swappable parts, you'll never fit single shape mice perfectly, as they are made for an idealized, hypothetical, 'every man' who simply - doesn't exist.

I'm using a RAT 8+, it's the only mouse I'll ever use. You can slide the bottom shell to make it quite big, and it's the only mouse I know where my hand can rest nicely. Also, my hand can rest on the side, which I find to be much more comfortable than horizontal. Now, maybe it's not going to be big enough for your hand.

I had the same problem - MadCatz R.A.T. 8+ was more then ok for me (hell, it was the most comfy mause that i was ever using and i have big hands + using pc for 8-16h daily) but the problems with scroll (open construction from bottom gets dirty and stop clicking even with cleaning every month) force to me to switch to logitech g502 (small but i hope its unkillable). If you are not working for 12h+ on pc like me it should be nice upgrade. On the photos rat look like a small one but it can be "stretched" - that's the main feature.

Honestly not sure if they still sell them but mad catz used to sell a mouse with a palm rest you could extend to make the mouse longer. Used one for years. https://a.co/d/gPzVAC9

Oh! I have this problem. My hands are small and every mouse is too big. Especially the one that is always recommended by everyone. The Logitech G502. Gives me cramps. People call it small and sure, it is short, but it is so tall! I recommend an infamous brand... the MadCatz Rat series. They are adjustable, both in height, length, weight and sometimes width. It is the only mice that doesn't feel too big for me. The build quality isn't that great, but the R.A.T. 6+ or 8+ are good. Avoid the others. And don't let the appearance scare you. It supports your hand in all the right places.

The R.A.T baby, I also have larger hands and it’s one of the most modular and most reliable mice i’ve ever used. I got a newer one two years ago or so but my last rat8 is still in use by another gamer and is probably 6yo by now and going strong

went through 5x rat 7 i need that corpus but the innards are trash. the thing that powers the lazer sucks bawls rat8 chinese reboot of british rats worked for 1 day and then lazer started to turn off at random intervals. so you draw circles and they miss random pieces swiftpoint as a micro company their software is terrible and dangerous to pc unless you how to fix it through bios. and it has drivers on the server that is down because they are tiny elecom is barbie size. like baby girl sized. bought it online, on a picture it looked normal proportions. about 15 logitechs all start to double click then tripple click roccat arrived dead and was an arse to return and refund. chose because they keyboard served me for 5+ years until it started to die recently steel series worked for like 1,5-2 years and started to multiclick like logitechs. costed a ton of money. like a month or two worth of food. ~5-8 a4tech their finish peels hard. they are just shoddy but some can survive for several years. some can die faster with multiclicks or dying buttons. lottery. 5x garisons i love the GM-740G corpus despite it being a joke. if they didn't create it but stole it i wish i had the original. but it's made of garbage plastic. the MMB just breaks. some even arrive broken. defender is already a rattly one but uses the same buttons as everyone, so after some time starts to multiclick genius cheap mice so it's random when they break and how. razer got deathadder and after like 2-2,5 weeks mmb stopped working right now after these amazing adventures i gave up and bought razer naga trinity which costed a half of my monthly salary. about one year and all the paint peeled from the buttons ahhahahahah. and two cheap acers even if one breaks i have the second one. so far they are alive but i barely use them only one of them i connect to my phone together with keyboard. + wireless (xiao?)mi that i got as a gift with a laptop. so far works i wish i could try super fat logitech (and see its buttons fail like always) and corsair m65 but you can't buy those two for years

me with 21 / 12 the only one i could find big enough and comfortable is the Delux m618plus a825. build quality is kinda ruff, but RGB is good and comfort is out of this world. From normal mouses the thermaltake level 10, razer deathadder (first edition), razer gladius 2 origin and the absolute top is the R.A.T 8+ (absolute shit when it comes to quality, mouse 4 died after 100 clicks)
