Razer Viper mini vs Endgame gear XM1 ? 17 x 9.3 cm hand size and prefer finger tip

Zverr

The title says it, I'm gonna buy either of these 2 mice within this weekend, and I'm in doubt tbh. 
I've learned that the viper mini has bad LOD and not the best cable which are a big deal in competitive play; features that are important to me and that the XM1 excel at obviously. but is that worth sacrificing the lightness and the small shape of the viper mini? the question becomes for me: can I comfortably finger tip the XM1 with a 17 x 9.3 cm  hand, if so , the XM1 is outright a better mouse to me cuz I'm thinking a 10g weight difference is nothing compared to the cable drag and the LOD difference. (ps: disregard prices)
thanks in advance guys.

well the best way to find out is to try them out by yourself, but the viper should be more comfortable to fingertip.

I think the XM1 is a bit too big to fingertip with your hand size. Also, I'm pretty sure there is a mod you can do with tape to fix the LOD on the Viper (if you think it is bothering you too much)

The surface tuning still isn't enough for the LOD to go under 2dvds, I'll just tape it and buy a bungee and hope for the best (I'm always scared of breaking mice while paracording so I'm not doing that especially with the mini cuz I heard it's hard to paracord)

but I could also save myself the trouble and get an MX1 , but then still I could regret it if it doesn't fit my 17 x 9.3 cm fingertip grip

I don't know if you still need help with this. But for other people stumbling upon this thread. I have pretty average hands, maybe a little bigger. And the xm1 fits my hand nicely. But definitely go into a store and try it out.

Xm1 is more of a claw grip mouse imo. I know for a fact that the viper mini is a good fingertip grip mouse because ive tried it myself.
