Pulsar Gaming Gears - X3 CrazyLight Mini Gaming Mouse

based. OP1 and Pulsar Crazylight are absolute Ftip/Claw hybrid goats

The weight is perfect actually. Tried the pulsar crazylight and scyrox v6/v8 which are <40g. For games like valorant and cs2, the op1s weight gives better stability during microadjustments or holding angles. Replaced them with the bigger skates that came with it. Control is top notch. I keep debating bet. Superlight 2 vs the OP1. I have a fingertip/claw grip and the op1 gives me more confidence in game.

Pulsar Crazylight - soft clicks and just feels great.

Worth it for hours of daily comfort and zero pain.

18.8 x 9.4 cm. I rock a Xlite Crazylight from Pulsar. Small ergo just feels natural for my hands and I feel like it provides me a good balance with precision, stability, control and comfort. Battlefield is what I like to sweat at.

I feel like there's a much bigger difference in quality between those sorts of mice to Pulsar than there is between the Tenz or Crazylight and the $160 ones. Pulsar seems to have figured out the best scroll wheel while everything else is quite good when you still have zowie, logitech, vaxee, struggling. Especially the two recent vaxee mice they gave the recommended to, worse coating, weight, wheel, price, and even worse 14-day return period, 1-year warranty instead of 2 and you can see how unreliable that site can be. Worth the effort to try and maintain a semblance of objectivity.

Viper V3 Pro prob the most popular and mainstream mouse. GPX 1 and 2 still about equal with viper combined. Pulsar's two recent releases TenZ & Crazylight have some of the best overall quality and durability in the business. Unfortunately none of their other offerings so far include the pulsar opticals. But I do think the X2 mini or crazylight version might be what you want, smaller mouse you can reach the front area with very light clicks. x2h mini version if you want higher-hump at the back. Lamzu, waizowl, mchose are some of the more well-regarded value OEMs but the prices are rising so oftentimes now you can get some of the OG models for cheaper on ebay.

Also in the hunt for palm-able ergo. I am waiting for my VT3S gen 2 (same shape as Pro Max) after liking the VT3 gen 2. The latter is a bit bulky for my small hands while being the most comfortable. Here are a few alternatives you can also try: - EC2 clones: The long tail doesn't work for me. Many to choose from if it does for you. - G703: even bulkier. I tried the X3 mini which has flat buttons and is smaller. It gives you a lot more way more control like an ambi but it's not comfortable for me. - DEX: I only tried the 3D printed model shape. It feels grippier due to the narrow waist. I would try this next if VT3S is not working out for me. - OUTSET AX: also worth a shot as it's similar to VT3 with a narrower waist but a higher hump. It feels more controllable in my hands.

The Pulsar Crazylight is the only somewhat reasonably priced one, and that runs into the Mchose L7. Plus it is smaller than the Superlight so may not be what you want shape wise. If you don't have access to Mchose/ATK and want the Superlight shape, then the GPX2 for $170 is I guess your best option. Also: >fingertip grip (palm rest a bit on the back of the mouse). That is just a claw grip.

I weirdly use the exact same [mouse](https://i.imgur.com/TrSgupY.jpeg), mousepad, skates, and mouse grip (also working on tension management) so I felt compelled to reply. I saw you were considering the Pulsar Crazylight? I did try that mouse several months ago and [these were my thoughts on it](https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/1jloc7o/comment/mk5jums/?context=3). I basically think the Hitscan's hump makes it the better choice for this kind of grip where the X2CL felt lacking in support even though I don't use palm contact to grip my Hitscan like you. I wouldn't recommend the X2CL personally. >is too much of my wrist/thumb/palm sitting on the pad and creating drag/friction I've been thinking about getting an arm sleeve for this reason.

I have all or most of the mice mentioned in your post, and similarly have had issues finding a mouse that had a right side that felt normal. The XM2w caused my hand to cramp (even tho I played awesome with it lol) The E1 is the best overall mouse I've ever used imho. The shape is second to none in my opinion. I have the ec2-dw, the pulsar super light size 1 & 2ES) and many other ergos that aren't nearly as comfy. The cons to the E1 are - the buttons have a specific bounce/spring to them, so there is a tiny bit of rattle if you slam your mouse often - the scroll wheel is fine - the side buttons have a bit of a corner to them, (I just sand it down) I'm currently switching between the E1, the Viper V3, the Zowie S2-dw Oh, and the Sora is an awesome mouse with a great shape. It's god a cool internal structure that was fun to mod and get the weight super low. I missed having the curved finger grooves (so I added my own) but overall it's an awesome mouse that I mained for months before I got into ergos. The pulsar super light is awesome, but had specific curves (along the right side and front) where I never felt 100% comfy. I have the v3ES and the v3 size 1, and both were a bit off for me. And I also didn't love the raesha optical switches.... Best scroll wheels tho! The XM2w is certainly the best built mouse of these three. If there was a version that didn't have such an aggressive inward curve along the right side I would likely be maining this mouse. That and I wish it had finger grooves... It's so solid tho... My personal rankings: 1. E1 2. Sora 3. Xlite (does the v4 still use Raesha optical switches??) 4. XM2w (but if you like the shape, its potentially #1)

Great review and I echo everything you said about it. It’s very similar to the Pulsar Crazylight which I have been using for the last few months, in both size and weight, and I was using that daily until I got the Sabre V2. I have installed the included grip tape as it was a little slippery, and it’s now my perfect mouse.
