So who makes a decent mouse now? I desperately want a halfway decent one but can’t quite afford german engineering 😉

How do your hold your mouse?

What is your budget?

Do you prefer ambi or ergo?

What is the distance between your middle finger and the base of your hand and the distance between the tip of your thumb and the tip of your pinkie when your hand is open and relaxed

Thumb on the right (right hand), pinky and ring finger on the other side first and middle finger for the buttons.

I can’t really justify more than $200 but less would be nice.

Ergo I think, logitech and the Razer’s that look like them tend to fit my hands nicely. I’m using a G1 superlight right now and it’s a bit small to be comfortable.

7.75 inches from base to the tip of my middle finger. Pinky to thumb, relaxed but not pressed flat is almost exactly 6 inches.

I’m leaning towards a Logitech MX Master 3S, but I’d love to try something else. Thanks for the detailed questions. I’m looking forward to your suggestion.

I would recommend the razer deathadder v3 both the wired and wireless versions are great, in my opinion the logitech mx mice are decent mice if rather heavy

Thanks. I’ll give them another look. I can’t remember why I got salty on them… something with the driver needing to be online? But yeah, perfect shape :-)

It’s that aluminum scroll wheel, the original fidget spinner ;-)

I'm happy with Cooler Master MM720.

Thanks, I’m looking at it now. I was a big fan of their cases back in the day, when it was basically just them and Lin Li making aluminum PCs :-)

The shape might feel weird when you look at it but the groove for ring finger is a game changer. Comfy af.

Doesn’t hurt that Amazon has it on sale for $45 either. You ever finis a session an have hexigons printed into you palm? Definitely not a dealbreaker…Maybe it’ll break my death-grip habit :-)
