Second this. I got my hands on a cheaper EC1-c and plan on moving to the dw as soon as money is in order. Love how it fills my palm, which is something I have not found with any other mouse.
i'd suggest try out a cheap used EC1-C to see whether you like the shape or not. but from what I see yes it looks quite small for you but people have preferences. Although I have 19x10cm hands, i prefer the size of the Maya over the Maya X, even though the latter is targeted for medium to larger hands
Ergo: EC1-C. Fits my hand like a glove and is perfect for palm grip. I also love the soft clicks even though it does add a small amount of travel distance. Looking forward to trying the EC1-DW when the glossy coatings release.
Symmetrical: OP1 8K v1. The slimmer design allows me to grab the mouse with my ring and pinky finger being straightened out, which is another technique I use to control my mice. It also has a noticeably more responsive click latency compared to my EC1. Polling rate doesn’t matter to me, but it’s nice knowing that it’s future-proof with 8Khz capability and swappable switches without soldering.
The only mouse that can match the intellimouse pro is the ec1-c but zowie discontinued it maybe you can still find a brand new or second hand unit on r/mousemarket. Dav3 wired is good but smaller the only thing bigger in the dav3 is the hump height.
Check out mice with optical scroll wheel encoders it's usually has better longevity than mechanical encoders.
Mice with optical scroll wheel - zowie c series, g502x/basilisk v3, leviathan v4, keychron m6.
Check out the steelseries prime / prime mini wired the mini is lighter tho
Zowie c series mice - they're on 70+ weight but zowie discontinued it so chances are you're going to buy a second hand unit
I tried the EC1 and after a bit of getting used to the shape starting to grow on me. But now im in a conflict on rather to keep it or return it and buy the DW. In terms of price it will cost me just below 100$ more than the -C version and im not sure if it’s worth it. What do you think?
The only thing that a bit annoying to me is the pre/post travel of the m1/m2 and also the noise and feel when scrolling the mouse wheel. Is it the same on the DW?
