Zaopin - Z2

Zaopin z2 is great for your hand size and grip I think.

My gf has had a zaopin z2 4k mouse for well over a year. Cost like 40 € or something. Compared to my Lamzu it seems like pretty much the same quality and Lamzu is one of the better quality mouse brands I think. Meanwhile my endgame gear xm2we started rattling and squeaking after a couple months. Zaopin and Lamzu both have pretty nice software too. Not like the bloatware the big brands like to push.

Get cheap delux m900 pro from AliExpress, it would last you quite a while, shape is really close to deathadder, though i personally would overpay a bit to get zaopin z2 or z2 mini basic version with 1k dongle

I recommend the incott g23 v2, zaopin Z2/mini and keychron m6 all silent version, the incott g23 v2 has loud clicks but you can swap the stock switches with a silent switch easily without soldering same for the zaopin Z2/mini.

The Zaopin Z2 is hotswappable and has good build quality, but unlike the G23, the hotswap feature is internal, so you have to open the mouse to change the switches.

What do you mean by large? G23 is long, but narrow like small mice, Zaopin Z2 has more reasonable ergo shape. On Incott, I broke my mouse wheel when I tried to fix broken encode which died after one year of use - wanted to know if there are mouse wheel replacements - no response from Incott, cannot recommend.

Yes it’s a decent mouse. Don’t like the led on the dongle. Will use it during work with Bluetooth. The scroll of the mini is superb

Zaopin Z2 and silent switches, no soldering required

I’ve been using it since July 2024 and couldn’t be happier, I can recommend it without hesitation

I settled with the Zaopin z2 for work. A little heavier at 60 plus grams and the Vxe r1 and the mad r major for gaming. Lightest mouse I could find in 2024. 3 mice with heavy application of grip tapes on the sides. I find that flatter sides for the thumb and pinky finger helps alleviate the pain. Darmoshark N5 is another I could recommend, I didnt like the heavy clicks.

zaopin z2 is in the same budget tier as the ATK and Mchose mice and has worked wonderfully for me who has similar sized hands with a relaxed claw / palm grip.

Zaopin Z2 is my favorite
