Posted September 26, 2017 I have been struggling to choose a mouse. I have a G502 and its almost perfect the only thing It does not really fit my hand. Logitech is amazing and want to continue using their mice. Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/839535-help-me-choose-a-mouse/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 26, 2017 It's little bit more complicated. What is your palm size? What is your grip (palm, fingertip, claw)? I'm currently using a G PRO and while I loved it at the beginning, I'm starting to hate it now. I can't hold the mouse comfortably, so I'm constantly re-gripping the mouse. Unless you have very small hands, I would suggest that you stay away from the G PRO. The best choice would be the G403, just be careful, a lot of people don't like the rear hump. It depends on how you hold your mouse. If you really like the G PRO shape, buy a G203 instead, much cheaper, non-braided cable (which is a plus, because the G PRO has a really stiff braided cable).

Length of hand is 19 cm, width is 8 cm. Im a Claw/fingertip hybrid. Do you have any recommendations on other mice?

Posted September 26, 2017 If you take eargonomics out 402 and the 102 has the worse sensors. Then it's down to egg shape or right dominant hand with no fourth or fifth finger support FPS <3 Flick G1 Review Nixeus Revel Review Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/839535-help-me-choose-a-mouse/#findComment-10483266 Share on other sites More sharing options...

G403 should be fine then, I guess.

Posted September 26, 2017 If you do claw or fingertip, the G-pro might be the best option for FPS due to the wight savings and sensor. That style grip probably will keep the smaller size of the G-pro being as big of a factor. Personally, I went with the G403 Wireless. I love the shape, its comfortable for long gaming and work sessions. I find that the side buttons aren't mushy and have good response, the scroll wheel button can seem a little stiff at first but I got used to it and enjoy it. My recommendation goes to the G403 if you're looking for a more rounded, do all mouse and the G-Pro if its strictly gaming. Hope this helps!

Posted September 28, 2017 It really comes down to personal preference, which type of grip you use and of course the size of your hand. I'd suggest heading to an electronics store that has mice on display and trying them out, then going with the one that best fits your hand. i5-3570k @ 4.6Ghz|Asus P8Z77-V-LE PLUS|16GB Kingston Hyper X DDR3|ASUS STRIX GTX1070 8GB OC Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/839535-help-me-choose-a-mouse/#findComment-10489604 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 28, 2017 If you use a claw/fingertip grip style, I would say categorically the death adder and g403 will be a bad idea. They both have a pretty prominent slope down towards the right hand side of the mouse in the mid section. They are great mice, but Im pretty sure your grip style would change as you got used to these mouse (not neccissarily a bad thing). As a claw/fingertip gripper myself, I find the ambidextrous, or symetrical mice a must. G203 is really nice, although maybe a little wide towards the front for my liking, and I found it pretty hard to stay in full control of the mouse when flicking around at high speeds. That said, g203 seems to be the best mouse around in terms of value, and from what you've said thats the one I'd recommend. I'd heavily encourage checking out the ZA series from zowie, and also abyssus v2 from razer though.
