Zowie (BenQ) - EC3-C

Zowie EC3-C feels good for me. Want to try deathadder, xlite CL, and E1 soon though.

I like wired ergo mouse and have small hands. Curious what would you recommend. Currently I own a DAV3 (wired, bit too big for my hand) and my main that I really like is the zowie ec3-c. Is there anything "better" for me out there?

Endgame Gear OP18K mby idk about double click feature though you can change a lot in Software Zowie EC3-C 0 Software you do all settings on the mouse itself so no double click feature https://www.eloshapes.com/mouse/compare?p=zowie-ec3-c-vs.-endgame-gear-op1-8k

Zowie EC3C — I’ve got almost the exact same size hands and it’s a great mouse with a great sensor

Hi there,I appreciate the comment..I just saw your post and your grip ..I would say you have kind of a pincer claw/forward palm hybrid style with a  pretty steep tilt.You really like to have your ring and pinky fingers on the edge and because you have short hands for that mouse(gpx)you are forced to rise your wrist and compromise health and stability.I would recommend for you a medium/small size ergonomic mouse.Deathadder Hyperspeed, Pulsar xliteV3 medium or small,lamzu thorn,zowie ec2-c or even ec3-c could fit you well, something in that line, doesn't have to be expensive,maybe a Chinese medium ergo with good sensor to see how you like it.You should try if you like medium or small better..Hope it helps...

Hi there.Yeah,It seems that you are more comfortable with a small ergo mouse. Unfortunately there's is not much demand for that and there's few options.I would go with the Zaopin Z2 mini if you can only get it on AliExpress.Its not a true ergo,kind in between of ambi and ergo but it could fit you well.

Zowie c series or endgame gear for a quality and durable mouse

I have the ec3-dw and my scroll wheel is perfect no issues but I agree on your about the sensor when I compare my ec3-c and ec3-dw both at 400 dpi the ec3-dw is faster and I know it's common to all mice.

Ec3-c and type 99

Buy zowie c series mouse or the endgame gear xm2 8k

Mouse - ec3-c Mousepad - htr and type 99 Keyboard - maxfit61 Games - cs2, lol

Those have programmable buttons excluding the zowie EC as it doesn't have software

Nope I main the ec3-c and it's good to use in cs2 and lol

Ergo - I only tried 2 Dav2 mini and ec3-c like both but ec3-c takes it so good to use on cs2 it's actually my main mouse Ambi - i still don't know

Xm2 8k, dav3 wired, zowie c series

XM2 8k Zowie c series (EC, s, fk, za)

I like both tbh I main the ec3-dw but I still go back to my ec3-c if my ec3-dw is charging.

Yeah I want them to copy the design of zowie EC when I hold my ec3-c it's a comfortable and smooth design while the dav3 has this jagged edges.

Doesn't matter imo I use my ec3-c for work, playing league of legends and cs2

Depends EC for ergonomic, fk for claw/fingertip, s/za/u for claw grip

Op18k for relaxed claw but for palm I usually recommend an ergonomic mouse like the ec3-c, delux m900 mini, zaopin Z2 mini, xlite v3/v4 mini.

Literally my first gaming mouse is the g102 prodigy and went with the ec3-c I have no issues lifting the mouse because of a different curvature and shape

17x10 Main mouse is the ec3-dw and ec3-c when my ec3-dw is charging, I noticed when I grip an ambidextrous mouse I tend to slightly tilt my hand so I opt for an ergonomic mouse and it's way better to hold it accommodate my grip style and super comfy too.

Well imo it takes time to get used to the shape at the end of the day you either get used to it or not. It felt uncomfortable when I first bought the ec3-c It definitely feels big compared to my small mice collection but after using it for a month it became my main mouse.

Sometimes I also main the ec3-c over the ec3-dw because of the added weight

I had this mouse and had 7 copies my only issue with the og rvm is the scroll wheel it's shit breaks easily and the high lod now the razer cobra fixed this issue I had on the rvm it's still using the same Old encoder of the rvm but I sold my cobra wired because I prefer my ec3-c.

Im starting to think you should get a zowie ec3-c if you want to have sturdy scroll wheel and build quality

I'm using the ec3-dw and ec3-c best mouse that I ever use

I have 19 x 10cm hands and went from a G502 to an EC2a in 2016 and after a week of constant use found it to be a huge improvement. Zowie might be behind in terms of tech and features but they are still the goats of shape. Plenty of other brands do that ergo shape, but none come close to the feel of the EC. While I don't daily drive that EC2a anymore, I always have my EC3 and camade bungee connected for use when other mice need charging or just for nostalgic comfort. The only thing that is a bummer are Zowie's scroll wheels. They feel pretty cheap and nasty compared to every other manufacturer.

Same grip and \~same hand size, started gaming long time ago with the first G502.. then when Logitech made G PRO (G305) shape.. I got the Prodigy one, G203 and used that for a long time. Looking for a lighter replacement I tried: \- XM1 (good shape, great coating, but slightly large, back hump too big, definitely worth trying) \- OP1 (way to narrow, not for me) \- All the Zowies, ended up using for a short time EC-3 (issue: no micro adjustments), ZA-13 (back hump too high) \- GPX 2.. not bad but for some reason can't find a good grip... also, slippery, sold. I'll try the smaller 2 C \- G303 SE, great if it wasn't so big (still use it regularly at work) but G305 has better shape. \- MZ1 awesome.. just unreliable and a liiiiitle bit too small. \- Viper Mini = No! \- G403 that hump's huge. Now trying Mchose L7 Ultra and G3 Ultra... You (me also) want a mouse small enough that let you do micro adjustments with your fingers, it also must have some support where that small palm part touch it. G305 is great at this because you can freely move the mouse, that slightly tilted sides let fingers grab it easily, and when you press it against your palm you have enough support. If I have to pick a mouse right now for the next years, shapewise G305.. Can't understand why Logitech have not yet released a superlight version and is milking with no end the GPX shape.. Think about not buying a mouse because a pro use it but buy it if it suits you, that's what counts.

Just FYI the EC3 is very slightly shorter but actually wider than EC2.

Strongly recommend benq zowie ec3 or ec2 (3 being large size and 2 being medium). Its hard to figure out which models are discontinued now but I’ve been using ec2-a since my mad catz rat mouse’s wire broke (so like 2017 I think) and it’s still working with no problems, I have some big palms for a girl and this is basically the best mouse I’ve had

EC3 and Vaxee E1. 

I always love the EC3 shape, but mine is dead and I am now using ROG Keris 2 ace. The performance is top notch, but I still prefer the more controllable EC3 shape. My hand size is 18 cm, 10 cm. I would like to try the Feinmann which is only a hair higher hump than EC3, but I think I will wait for the 1.5 Size with no holes. Thanks for your meticulous review brother.

i personally dont like the xm2we(which has the same shape as xm1r) but solely due to the shape, other than that it is a good mouse. depends on what kind of shape you want for your mouse. if you want a safe option, or a mouse with a shape that can accomodate for multiple gripstyles and handsizes, there are many g pro superlight clones that are bascially just as good, such as mchose a7 pro or incott g23 (there are many others). zowie also still sells their wired c-series mice too which are also great options. you could also find some good deals for used options. I personally use the deathadder v3 wired.

I’ve had a zowie ec c series mouse now for years and it hasn’t had any issues

Zowie mice are super well made and long lasting and they have buttons underneath to change DPI and polling, no software. The wireless mice aren't cheap though, you'll need to look at a wired version.

The wired zowie is better than all these 3. U will de dissapointed if u want it yo be ec2 level. What about Deathadder hyperspeed? that would be way better than all 3 and doesnt cost much more i think

non pro viper wireless, razer deathadder, i'd argue g305 lightspeed, xtrfy m42, wired zowie, superlight 1, glorious wired, some lgg mice, some vaxee mice, endgame gear op1k. All these are like 25-80€ if my quick currency version is right. Some of these are wireless too. Especially if you snipe a sale you can get a really good deal. in "top tier mice" I mean the ones that are basically the same shape as the "standards", superlight 2, viper v3 pro, deathadder v3 pro, etc. Obviously the tech is a bit worse, but we were hitting insane shots on mice 15+ years ago, even the worse mice are 100% good enough. 4k/8k polling doesnt change that much, and thats the major sell of the more expensive mice. I've managed to pick up qck+ for like 10€ on average the last few years, always on sale somewhere. Otherwise a sale on a lgg saturn (standard), zowie gsr (any version you prefer). Qck might not be the longest lasting, but it's usually on a good sale so you never really have to fork out more than AT MOST 40€ a year on it if you're really picky with pad and swap it 4x a year, but most ppl usually keep it for 6-24 months atleast.

looks like pincer claw try zowie ec mice

I got my first Deathadder in 2009. I had two of the original model, one 3.5 and one 4G. In 2015, I bought a Zowie EC that I've been using near daily for the past decade.

Something ergo from zowie/ deathadder V3 pro / deathadder V3 hyperspeed / Vaxee

Basically any ergo mouse, ie. Deathadder v3 or v4. ZOWIE EC. There’s hundreds of good ergo mice out there.

not sure what you mean by 3 mode. but ergo mice like the EC series by zowie, death adder series, FK2-DW(ambi), Maya X(ambi), GPX Dex, but it entirely depends on your hand size and preferences

Zowie wireless ones go for triple the price of these . I used to have a zowie ec mouse back in 2014 to 2020 the right doesn't work anymore otherwise a brilliant mouse
