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

11 months ago

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 forgot that there are some small mice that don't work for me for example the zowie S2-DW whenever I put my hand on the S2-DW ring is extended while pinky finger at the back flare of the mouse causing awkward grip I don't like that I prefer my ring and pinky close to each other.

Easily one of my top 5 mice for sure, the shape just clicks for me out of the box as soon as I put my hands I was like yup this is it.

Forgot to add the scroll wheel is tight when scrolling up and down, shape fits my handsize and grip style it's like using my ec3-c as soon as I put my hand on it I don't need to adjust my grip style.

Endgame gear op1 8k v2/XM2 8k v2 Zowie c series have 4 different shapes and multiple sizes I've been using the ec3-c since 2022 and still strong till this day

It's different from each person I had hand discomfort when using the ec3-c but I realize I just didn't have enough time to adapt to the shape after using it for a month I understand how the shape and grip style works on that mouse so now it's my main mouse

Razer cobra wired Zowie c series (ec3-c, za13-c, s2-c, fk2-c) these are all small mice of zowie and they're all high quality plus it uses an optical scroll wheel like the g502 hero

Zowie ec3-dw and superlight 2c. I had the Dav2 mini before I actually like it then moved to the ec3-c I feel more stable and it's definitely bigger than the dav2 mini also it has a coating so your hand will stick on that mouse

The dw has a little pre and post travel at least on my copy and the scroll isn't as loud as my ec3-c

E1 is a small to medium size ergo the length is similar to the ec3 but it has a hump height of the ec2.

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.

I can list good wired mice - op18k v2/XM2 8k v2, dav3 wired, pulsefire haste 2 wired, pulsefire saga wired, redragon m996 wired, zowie c series.

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

You are better off with ec3, xlite crazylight

The EC2 is medium-large mouse, roughly the same size as the Superlight. EC3 is a better option if the Superlight is too large.

try a small ergo mouse (xlite mini, ec3, lamzu thorn) for me, i always used ergoes for fingertip, i can almost use any mouse size, but it has to be wider (i have 10-11cm wide hands) small ergoes are very nice tho, they are wide but not super long

there's alot of variety in mice these days so theres no objective best mouse anymore for claw/fingertip i'd recommend the Endgame Gear OP1w or OP18k (depends on if you mind having a wire or not) for palm i'd recommend the Deathadder V3 Hyperspeed or Zowie EC3
