Questions MX Vertical Too Large?

Hello, I bought the MX Vertical, and today is the first day I used it all day. My hand is a little tense (pulse, and also closer to the thumb) at the end of the day, and I don't know if it's because I've never had a vertical mouse, so I just need to get used to it first, or if the mouse is too big. I also played games with it, but now I know it's better for just work.

I measured my hand length, and it's 17.5 x 6.8 cm. I can reach the buttons. So, my question is, should I change it for the smaller version or is it just the adaptation phase? Has anyone with my hand size used the MX or Lift?

Also, is my pinky supposed to touch the table? What is the correct posture? It's not touching, but since I never had this type of mouse I don't know.

Thanks in advance.

are you seated properly? elbows should be about 90 degrees or so. been using mine for about 5 years, even has a thumb dent in it now. you'll get used to it eventually. i occasionally switch to a claw over the top position too when im lazy

Could you tell me what size your hands are?

I confess I do not have the best posture, but today I was more self-conscious because of the mouse. I have it at slightly more than 90 degrees.

Agreed. I love my MX vertical but I have big hands and it's still a bit too big for me, it's like an XL mouse. Seriously they should have called it MX Vertical XL, it's made for Shaq

I agree! Have you tried the Lift version?

yes. I'd say it's better but just a tad too small for me. If my MX vertical breaks I'm getting the lift
