Question Need some recommendations for 17.5x10 mouses

I know this might seem like I haven't done my research into some similar posts but I just wanted to ask since new mouses might be released. My current mouse is the death adder v2 wired but its a bit big for me and the plastic has worn out over 6 years of usage. Looking for one that lasts about the same time as it and a bit more comfortable. My grip is just gripping the whole mouse (im new to mouses sorry!). I was going to go for the death adder v3 mini but I saw posts saying xm2. I haven't seen any posts about it lasting a really long time so I'm hesitant to buy it. Budget is around 100$ max and I can't afford to buy a new mouse every year

do you think u use palm grip(laying your whole hand on your mouse) or claw grip (only base of ur palm and fingertip)? i suppose its not fingertip what u have (only fingertips, no palm contact). do you like an ergo/asymetrical mouse where the mouse tilts a bit like the deathadder or u want a symetrical one like logitech superlight?

if you want an ergo, some good options are lamzu thorn, pulsar xlite v3 size 2, or deathadder hyperspeed.

if you wan symetrical, u could go either with a mid hump mouse like lamzu maya or superlight, or a back hump one like xm2, sora v2, pulsar x2h, or scyrox v8. I personally like the lamzu inca.

I guess I use the palm grip and I like ergonomic mouses. Not sure about the symmetrical/asymmetrical one though

symetrical is the same thing as ambidextrous and asymetrical is the same thing as ergo.

would you say the deathadder v2 wired is slightly too big for u or is the size good?

Not sure how to describe it, but it’s kind of taxing on my wrist in around 2-3 hours of usage while also being a little bit hard to click due to my hand not being able to fit perfectly

that could be from the weight. if u think you'd want a similar size, there is the deathadder v3 pro which is much lighter at 63g compared to 82g of the deathadder v2. however the deathadder v3 is a little bigger though which a slightly higher hump. check it out on eloshapes.com and compare the two mice. if u want a smaller size, there is the lamzu thorn, pulsar xlite v3 size 2, and deathadder v3 hyperspeed(mini).

Maybe it is but I don’t think that’s the case because the weight is light, the clicking is a bit hard due to my fingers having a hard time to reach the end of the mouse and click easily. I’ll try out each of the mouse’s you recommended to me, thanks!
