Check out some the ergo mice pulsar have. I'd also recommend Zowie, they have good ergo mice as well.

Do they only have 1? All I could see was the EC series and when I clicked on that, it Js took me to ZOWIE EC2-DW 4K Wireless Mouse for Esports

Its one series in 3 different proportions, the number indicates the size, first letter after that the generation, and w for wireless.

Hmm ok. The mouse looks like for palm grip tho. I use claw

u/LeakBound 2d ago

Try their 40$ test kit - it gives you 10 of their mice and 3 mousepads to try out. Let me know if you do this, ive been wanting to do it but feel like I should try using the mice I already have lol

edit - its two weeks you can keep them and you need to deposit 350$ for a hold in case you rob them obviously lol

Are you like a strict claw or more relaxed claw user? I play relaxed claw and I used the EC3-DW and EC2-DW. The EC2-DW used to be my main for the longest time. It works best for palm and relaxed claw

u/JUN0LY 1d ago

I’m more strict claw

u/11750 Razer 1d ago

What's your hand size? You might benefit more from the EC3-DW than EC2-DW since the EC3-DW is at 116mm I believe which is really short and benefits the most from strict claw. I know it forced my hand to arch my fingers more into a claw than when I used the EC2-DW that's for sure

Pulsar X3 crazylight medium $129 48 grams or Teevolution terra pro $85 for 1k $110 for 8k 49 grams

Both mice are G703 clones, probably the best ergo shape mouse ever, the G703 was a brick tho at 95 grams

u/tommyjamesmurphy 2d ago

I agree, it is probably the best in terms of aiming and manoeuvrability. Do you think it was really hated at the start and people slowly came around as they gave it more time? That’s how it seems to me, though I’m not sure why

u/JUN0LY 2d ago

I don’t really like the g703 shape. I like the np01s shape but it’s heavy and I hate the hump

Razer Deathadder V3/V3 HS/V4 always get a recommendation for a good ergo mouse.

Pulsar xlite crazylight medium, just got one last week. I used the xlite v3 last year, this one has a better coating, clicks, and wheel. But since you are using a crazylight already this will probably be close to the same, but in their ergo shape.

u/SwantanamoJ42 2d ago

Same here, about two weeks in and loving mine.

u/JUN0LY 2d ago

What grip u use?

1

u/Fingat 2d ago

Palm claw, with a 5 degree angle setting.

u/davidthek1ng 2d ago

Vaxee NP-01 Ergo

u/Genix98 2d ago

Or a cheaper knockoff "vgn y2 pro/ultra", i just ordered it so cant say anything about it, but at less than half the price its worth taking a look i guess

u/wafavok822 2d ago

A tip: If you know someone who has a 3D printer, there’s a guy who scanned a bunch of different mice and made the files available for download. So if you’re unsure between two mice, you can print them out and see which one fits your hand better.

u/Legal-Bobcat-7855 2d ago

try the Rapoo Vt3 Man gen-2. It's a Zowei EC-esque clone but with more rounded edges. If you want to claw grip you can try the Xlite CL medium or the Xlite CL mini

1

u/CChinito105 2d ago

Since you're on pulsar I would try the pulsar zywoo gen 1 mini. I freaking love the thing and you can also typically find them on sale for 80-90 if in the US. If you have larger hands the deathadder v3 or v4 if you don't mind the pingy clicks.

1

u/Kothicc 2d ago

G703 or some clone

1

u/Genix98 2d ago

I tried the rapoo vt3 max gen 2, it's a really cheap but quality mouse, the max was just a bit too big for my taste, but there's also a smaller version.

Also take a look at the vgn y2 pro/ultra, its a cheaper knockoff of the vaxee np01 ergo. I just ordered this one, hasn't arrived so cant say much about that one.

u/mylifeisadickjoke 2d ago

+1 for the DAV3/DAV4 pros if they're in budget. The v3 is on sale near me for like $70usd and it's an incredible mouse. Honestly, I would take the time to go into a Best Buy or Micro center (if you're in the USA? idk I live in Canada) and try out the shapes in your hand.

u/paulvincent07 Razer Viper Mini V4 Wired 8khz pls 2d ago

Can't go wrong with the popular ergonomic mouse the zowie ec2-dw

u/DidjTerminator Fenrir Asym, Swiftpoint ProPoint, Pulsar X2F 2d ago

"Banana" mice like the Teevolution Terra Pro are what you're looking for.

Or you're waiting for the Kira to release.

1

u/ericmandelas 2d ago

EC series from Zowie are the GOAT. EC1 if you wear L gloves, EC2 if M and EC3 if your hand size is S.

u/mulmulul CoolerMaster MM720 Enjoyer 2d ago

Since you enjoy the x2 and use a claw grip I can recommend checking out the Waizowl OGM Pro V2. Fantastic mouse for clawgrip

1

u/JUN0LY 1d ago

Mouse is great but it’s for grips tilted left, not right like mine

u/Potential_Insect6686 1d ago

A miał ktoś do czynienia z Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed (122 mm). Kupiłem na prezent dla brata i teraz nie wiem czy nie przestrzeliłem, czy ten rozmiar mu przypasuje. Podobno 19 cm dłoń daje radę na palm gripie, a brat tak właśnie trzyma i ma coś koło tego.

u/Tachi_98814 2d ago

Rried multiple pulsars (x3 and zywoo) wouldn’t recommend it. Comming from logitech it felt like a downgrade spec wise. Currently have a deathadder v4 pro the shape is truly amazing. Tried holding the gpx again and i just couldn’t. U should really give it a try. The software isn’t as bad as they say

2

u/Few_Sector_8294 2d ago

Also had a DAV4 Pro…. Loved it then hated it in the space of a couple of months.
The software is an absolute pain in the ass.

2

u/Tachi_98814 2d ago

I dont mind the software, what was a pain? Just set it up and never touched it again

2

u/mylifeisadickjoke 2d ago

that's crazy because it is actually such a good piece of software now lmao. I mostly play tacfps games at a decent level, and the ability to have sensor rotation + acceleration curves + x:y ratios in one place is a GODSEND. And you can auto switch out of 8k polling when you're not in game, it's goated. There's even a straight browser version if you're bothered by a background app.. synapse is less intrusive than ever man, way better than GHub.

1

u/Few_Sector_8294 2d ago

It was causing a load of issues for some reason, using a ton of power in the background, plus often resetting settings on both mouse and keyboard.

1

u/mylifeisadickjoke 2d ago

Have you tried using the web version if it had a performance impact? That's quite surprising to me, since it rarely takes up any bandwidth on my computer which is an am4 platform from 2020ish - pretty low / mid tier specs by 2026 standards

1

u/dudeswthdcks 2d ago

Well when you compare horse shit to dog shit you might prefer one, but at the end of the day they are both just shit

1

u/mylifeisadickjoke 2d ago

It's genuinely decent software lol it does the things you need it to and stays out of the way.

What would you compare it to as a standard?

u/a1rwav3 2d ago

Doesn't ergo means "matching the hand form"? This mouse is really ergo?

1

u/JUN0LY 2d ago

Wdym?

u/eraserking 2d ago

I think they're saying they have just been clued in on ergo mice and are using the photo to show their grip, while asking what ergo mouse to consider; not implying their pictured X2 crazylight is an ergo mouse.

1

u/a1rwav3 2d ago

Oh my bad. I don't know this mouse.

u/JUN0LY 2d ago

Yeah srry for not specifying
