I personally would go Zowie since they have more options but again it’s def subjective. Zowie has a questionnaire that could give you a better idea for what mouse to choose from their lineup. Just to let you know it often shows the DW version as suggestion but there is always the C version which is wired and cheaper.  Also if the website ever recommends you Zowie ec2-C, go with pulsar xlite v3 wired, it has a similar shape and is much lighter

best is subjective, its between deathadder v3 pro/wired, hyperspeed(mini), superlight dex, ec2-dw, pulsar xlite v3/4, and maybe even np-01s. it depends on your handsize and gripstyle

if you like symetrical mice with a bit of a back hump, you want flatter sides, such as the superlight (or clones), Pulsar x2 crazylight, VXE R1 or Mad R Major. you can even try out the Zowie S2 or ZA13/Lamzu Inca. if you want a symetrical mouse with a flatter back hump or low profile, you could go zowie fk2(although the sides aren't flat), Beast X(usually claw grip but i believe its doable), Lamzu Maya/Maya X. Maybe even the Viper v3 pro could work but i wouldn't recommend it imo shape and price wise. If you want to try out ergos, you can go for pulsar's xlite series, Zowie Ec2 or 3 (make sure its either -C, -CW, or -DW), Razer Deathadder v3 Hyperspeed(mini) Vaxee's E1, or WLmouse Sword X.

honestly the ATK U2 could work, it does look taller, just the slight concern is the width at the base but that probably won't matter too much. another suggestion could be the scyrox v8 but maye that one could be too high/back. I would actually expect the zowie s2 to work better, mainly since i believe its "designed" to fit relaxed claw better, but i think that could just be marketing gimmick. If you really like the thumb indent on the zowie u2, just need something a little taller, then yea looks like ATK U2 might be the one for you

The gpx clones can work for palm but imo not ideal so I recommend a medium size ergonomic mouse like the Atk z1, rawm er21, xlite v3 medium wired, dav3 hyperspeed it's a $100 mouse but good quality the other mice are cheaper and almost have a similar quality to the razer.

I gotcha bro for mouse I recommend the pulsar xlite v3 medium wired it is a medium size ergonomic mouse good for palm Grip the best feature of this mouse is the cable is detachable and its USB c. And lastly for the mousepad I recommend the artisan zero large size the dimensions are 420x330 top tier cloth mousepad, the stitch edges are below the surface, the poron base is very grippy, made in Japan.

Yeah if you palm grip or you can try the ec3-dw or xlite v3/v4/cl mini, the op18k is too small and not the best for palm unless you have baby hands

Xlite v3/v4 if if you want a longer and wider mouse than the xlite v2 mini it is also has a taller hump. Now for a back hump ergo teevolution terra, pulsar x3 / mini, pulsar zywoo medium / mini, lamzu thorn (or you can wait for the new model of Thorn which some said it's bigger than the current thorn), outset ax.

The modern day clone for the Logitech G403 is the Pulsar X3. The Pulsar X3 has basically the shape but the G403 but is 55g, wireless, and includes modern day tech. It's $100. Go to EloShapes to see the shape difference. If you're your budget is <$65 and you want a big ergo mouse you can palm grip and u don't mind the wire, go with pulsar xelite wired on amazon. It's $50. If you do get the Xelite wired, know that it might not be long enough at a length of 122mm, so your fingers might hang off the ends of the mouse click buttons, but idk for sure. If you do decide to get a wired mouse make sure you have a mouse bungee. I recommend the Endgame Gear MB1 personally. But another cheaper option is the Glorious mouse bungee. And another option, idk a lot about it, the pulsar microbungee es. I've never tried it, but people say good things about it and it's only $7. If you still are unsure, go to X and use Grok AI. ChatGPT also works, but I feel like Grok is better. Ask it questions prompting it for things you want to know. Like $65 budget, want a shape like Logitech G403, I palm grip my mouse, I have large hands. List 5 mice I could buy and why. Reference reddit. That would be the prompt I use.

Right, but there are very unique charms about Vaxee that do make their products interesting. For cheap ergos I mean, Deathadder v3 Wired and you'd be in pretty good shape for $50. That's my take at least, I mained one for like 2-3 years and it worked out great. If you're willing to go wired you can even get a Pulsar X2 Wired or Pulsar Xlite Wired both are $50. That trio are probably the best budget mice I've tried. Now that I'm almost all wireless I can't go back, using a wired mouse feels so archaic. Vaxee is good but you are absolutely correct. In the budget category / $50 price range there are some top tier ergo shapes.

OP1 8K v2 is about $90 I think. That’s on the smaller side, and it’s well regarded as one of the best (if not categorically the best) mice for FPS. Even best mouse overall, it outperforms just about everything. Do you prefer symmetrical or ergonomic? The Razer Deathadder v3 is often on sale for $50-70, in my opinion it’s no slouch, it’s ergonomic. Much less of a performer as the OP1 but it is pretty decent. It’s large tho. If you’re interested in Pulsar their mini’s on the smaller size and I’ve seen some models (like x2 v2) on Amazon marked down to $70-90. Those will be wireless and are good. Pulsar also has an XLite (ergo) or X2 (wired) for $50, those are awesome choices IMO.
