Recently changed from Rival 600 (RMB died after 4yrs) to Logitech Superlight 2 Dex. I love my Rival but Superlight defo dug its way into my heart real quick.

The Steel Series Rival 600 is misunderstood. I personally hate my Aerox 5, and I'm back using my Rival.

Steel series rival 600 fits relatively well in my quite large hands. With all the weights in too it's nice and heavy

i'd suggest a moba mouse, not an MMO one PoE is an action game, not a turnbased tab/target MMO mouse = very big moba mouses are lighter and more average in size, makes movement less painful watch reviews before you buy and make sure you understand the difference between palm / claw mouse grips palm = whole hand sits on the mouse, your fingers can reach the front of the mouse claw = fingers on top of the mouse, usually in the lower center this is important to know because some mouses put their button far close to the front of the mouse, incompatible with a claw grip i personally recommend the Steelseries Rival 600, it has 3 buttons on the left, and one extra on the top of the mouse, 4 easy to access buttons, with is more than enough for PoE 2 WAIT FOR BLACKFRIDAY, STARTS on NOV 29, you'll find great deals

I've been using a 50ish dollar Logitech for over a year now and I have no complaints. Uses a single AA battery that I replace like every 6 months or something. It's a gaming mouse, has a bunch of buttons and dpi settings. Works great. Before that, I owned a steelseries rival series that cost over a hundred dollars. The only thing I liked better about it was that it was heavier and had weighted plates in it. But it was wired and I got tired of it as well.

Have you looked into Logitech g502 series, or the razor Naga pro, that's about as big as they get. I'm 11cm by 21 , steel series rival is pretty big too that's what I have, it's got an on board chips to store macros right on the mouse. Also try a claw grip, helps alot with big hands.

Damn dude your hands are massive, maybe even bigger than mine. Ill give you the list of all of the mice I've tried. 1. Steel Series Aerox 5 - probably my favorite but it is expensive, I don't particularly like the software, It had an issue where it would disconnect randomly sometimes, and after a few years the scroll wheel stopped working. But the weight and button configuration are what are great about this one. It also has a comfortable shape for big hands. 2. Pulsar xlite v4 large - great mouse, great shape, i can almost palm it, I can if im feeling lazy, wide enough for a comfy finger tip grip that large hands pretty much have to use. I wish it had more side buttons but this is my current mouse that i replaced the Aerox with and I love it. I whole heartedly recommend giving this one a try. It has a simple software that just does what its supposed to and nothing else. The software also doesnt need to be running all the time. 3. Mionix Naos Pro - its almost perfect, its almost what i want it to be. if it were just a little taller i would be able to palm it. I think its a solid choice for xxl hands but its just not quite there, the pulsar is far lighter and has a better shape for fingertip grip. 4. Steel series rival - solid, heavy, you can actually add weights to make it heavier. back when i used this i didnt think i would like a light mouse. over all a good mouse with a good shape for large hands. 5. Logi G604 - great mouse, i dont think they make them anymore so they are hard to find/expensive. Scroll wheel is great. Probably about as close to an mx master as your gonna get. Has the weird shape where it gets skinnier where the ring and pinky finger rest so you end up dragging or sticking out your pinky. Lots of thumb buttons, did i mention i like that. 6. Roccat kone xp air - weird shape, almost looks like a left handed mouse but its not. i really like the button configuration but the shape just makes it uncomfortable for the ring and pinky finger, side buttons arent worth an uncomfortable grip 7. Logi G900 - meh one of the first "large" mice i aquired. Its too narrow to be comfortable for xxl hands. 8. Logi G502 - dont listen to anyone who recommends this mouse, its actually not really any smaller than any of the other mice here but the button placement is verry uncomfortable for xxl large hands. I think that about covers it other than I use an mxMaster 3 at work. I would still like for these all to be a little bigger but gaming mice don't get any bigger than this that i have found. TLDR I RECCOMEND THE PULSAR XLITE V4 LARGE Edit - I've held some of the razers at the store and i didn't particularly care for them.

My very first Steelseries mouse (Rival, over 10 years old) is still working flawlessly, while three new ones have broken since (all with faulty left mouse button). The rubber grip of all four also started dissolving after a few months.... so for me personally Steelseries sadly is no option no more. Logitech has better rubber grips and similar ergonomics but the same problem with faulty switches after \~1 year. For a few years now, I'm using G502 which I have to replace every year.... which sucks but the price is acceptable and I couldn't find anything better yet.

Mentioned it here before: The biggest in game improvement came when I switched from an MX518 to the og Rival (inkl. cheating accusations). I wish SteelSeries would stop producing garbage and revive this shape with decent tech. Chasing this high ever since.

I would never buy a hyperx mouse again. Mine was just crap. I lasted about 3 months before I swapped back to my ss rival.

>I keep breaking my Logitech G703 mice How are they breaking? That might be a good place to start, choosing something that is 'stronger' in the area they are breaking. I'm a bit surprised, as I have worn-through several mice (I'm a software developer and gamer, and use a mouse for hours every day for decades), but I have never had a mouse break, just worn out to the point that the finishes wear through or the clicker/scroll becomes intermittent. I have personally been happy with the SteelSeries Rival mouse I have been using for the last 7 years. I liked the Steelseries Sensei before that, but any soft-touch finish is not BIFL.
