I used to main that, I liked the gpx too but it was too big for me. Went to the pulsar x2 mini, love it. 18x9cm hands. op18k is supposedly fantastic too.

I don't pay too much attention to those. Seems fine, it's been a long time since I used the mini, I feel like they used to be a bit mushy on that. Can't remember though. I will say, if you're super specific about click feel, the op1 has swappable switches.

18x9, sorry. It’s late lol. I used to mostly ftip the rvm but forced a relaxed claw at some point. Feels natural on the x2 mini

I have 19cmx10cm hands and I do like a weird pincer claw/fingertip grip with the pulsar x2 crazylight mini. It has pretty much flat sides which really helps me with comfort. Not exactly sure if it would suit you but i thought to put it out there since i have very limited experience with different mice haha

Feels good. I tried the X2n and felt like the hump was a bit too aggressive for my grip. The v8 has enough to give me stability but I also feel like I have enough space for micro corrections

According to eloshape the X2n mini has the same hump height. It starts further back so for me it felt more filling in my hand than the v8

>This guy always doesn't recommend Pulsar mice That's just not true. The [Xlite](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite/7.html) got the Editor's Choice award. The [Xlite Wireless](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-wireless/7.html), [Xlite v2](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-wireless-v2/4.html), and [Xlite v2 Mini](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-v2-mini-wireless/7.html) all got the Editor's Choice and Great Value awards (note that these were $80 or less, similar to Scyrox now). The [X2](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2/7.html), [X2 Mini](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2-mini/7.html), [X2 v2](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2v2/8.html), [X2H](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2h/9.html), and [Xlite v3](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-v3/8.html) each received the Highly Recommended award (launch price for these was closer to $100). Only the last four Pulsar mice reviewed by pzogel didn't get any awards; keep in mind that these four all had some level of polling instability with a launch price of $130-180, while cheaper mice like the [DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/razer-deathadder-v3-hyperspeed/7.html) ($100) had no such issues. It's easy to see why Pulsar no longer stands out enough to warrant a recommendation as they've become pricier and less competitive.

Owned an XM2we at first, and then eventually bought an XM2w 4K when they released. It just works well for my hands and my grip style, and I don't think any shape could replace it for me personally. I don't recommend spending as much as I and many others have on finding "the perfect shape" as you will go down a very deep rabbit hole

I’d say those are some of the only Pulsar mini mice that are good for large hands, unless you finger tip. I’m 21.5x11.5 and the X2N mini is one of my mains right now. You could try both the X2H mini and the X2N mini, but I got rid of my X2H mini once I got the X2N. The curves of the back hump and the way it narrows slightly in the front made the X2H just feel so boxy, even though I enjoyed the shape in the past. All that to say I highly recommend the X2N mini, I think you’ll really enjoy it.

Yeah I got some paws lol. I mean the X2N is more curvy, so the X2H feels more boxy. I’d say like relaxed claw on a bad day and aggressive claw on a good day lol. Right now mostly Battlefield 6 and CS2 for games.
